The lovely smell of coffee is what I remember.

I only liked the rose hip syrup. You can imagine how much I got at school dinners. About a teaspoon!!

Before I married I was a Miss Pearson. My father was George Pearson (1919 - 1994). He was secretary of the South Notts Hussars Old Comrades Association for many years. The second photo of Trinity Square is familiar. The cafe was on the left in a row of shops facing the car entrance to Trinity Square car park.At the Kings Walk end was an art shop, and we think then a newsagents/tobacconists, and the cafe was at the other end. It definitely wasn't a Capuccis or the Toreador. Le Coserie still rings a bell!

Can anyone remember the name of the cafe in Trinity Square? The name was something like Le Causerie. My husband can remember the Scottish waitress who served him, what he regularly ordered but cannot remember the name of the cafe!!

See http://www.thisisnottingham.co.uk/news/Hundreds-fled-Old-Basford-factory-inferno/article-693479-detail/article.html Geoge Pearson & Sons on Southwark Street, Basford was started by my ancestors. They were Bleachers & Dyers. I've researched the family back to Andrew Pearson, a bleacher born around 1730. The family also owned Rosebery House,Waterford Street, now a Community Mental Health service.
