Businesses in the shadow of Nottingham Castle have expressed hope
its second reopening will finally see the landmark realise its tourism potential. .
"Families and tourists walk past and then come back if they've seen our restaurant and want to try it. For a long time we have not had these tourists - I hope it stays open to bring people in." Steven Chapman, manager of The Specialty coffee shop on Friar Lane, was certain the castle would help, but unsure on the extent of the boost. "It's never been open when I've been here, so it will be interesting to see what difference it makes," Mr Chapman said.
"It just gets people into the area, which simply means they're more likely to come in here. Hopefully the lower prices will make it more popular."
