About Nottinghams Restaurant & Tavern
Although nearly brand-new, Nottinghams has a rich history. In this location stood the Robinhood Inn in the 1960s, Friar Tuck's in the 1970s, the Rusty Anchor in the 1980s, and Mongolian Palace in the 1990s. The interior of the restaurant had an opening on the second level for entertainers. Big Bear Valley was a popular location for filming movies and the Robinhood Inn was the favorite gathering place for actors such as John Wayne, Lee Marvin, the Ponderosa Group, and many others. Let us take you on a tour of our historic surroundings and unique antiques.
As you enter, you'll pass The Dining Room, a cozy dining area. The hostess station, originally built in 1890, was used as the entrance to a reported gangster's house in New Jersey. A revolving door set, once part of Marshall Fields in New York, has been used in parts to create a circular divide. You will pass a replica of a 1920s Greene and Greene designed Bolton house stairway, which leads upstairs to the Robinhood Resort Banquet area.
Continue straight-ahead to The Pub, our family dining room and bar. The back bar, from Pahrump, Nevada, was originally in a diner that was later converted to a brothel. The front bar is from Chicago. The 1930s canoe was discovered in an old building in Fawnskin in the 1980s and is thought to have been in Big Bear all its life.
As you look around you may also notice numerous Craftsman-era doors, reproduced in various designs.
The Nottinghams staff hopes you enjoy your time with us. Nottinghams offers the best California Cuisine in the Big Bear Valley. The selection of wines, spirits, and beers, along with the carefully selected ingredients for your menu choices, will exceed everyone's expectations.
