A block of toilets is set to become the unlikely location for a new bistro which will bring restaurant jobs to the Nottingham area.

Uman Jaspel purchased the former public toilet block on the city's Carrington Street and plans to spend £500,000 turning it into a fashionable fast-food restaurant, reports the BBC.

According to the budding restaurateur, he fell in love with the building due to its "character".

"We are putting in a state-of-the-art fast-food restaurant and the area that faces Carrington Street will be the restaurant area," he told the news provider.

"It's a beautiful site and to get that in a city centre is a privilege."

Currently, renovation work is underway but it is unknown when the eatery will be open for business.

Another Nottingham-based restaurant Sat Bains has maintained its status as the only Michelin-starred eatery in the city.

The new Michelin guide was unveiled last week, with the establishment holding onto the one star it has had since 2003.
