Food Quality
Pros:
"The Deluxe Burger was the tastiest burger I've ever eaten."
"Very good quality Sunday roast dinner."
"The duck special was amazing!"
"All of them were spot on. Chips were really tasty, crispy but still fluffy. Veggie burger was tasty and not dry at all like most others."
"Just finished Fish and Chips, Excellent evening meal, with family who never had English food like this."
"The Beef Bourginon was delicious."
"The food was great, pub food with restaurant quality really was impressed."
Cons:
"Husbands CRISPY Belly Pork...... Wasn't! It was Rubbery and inedible."
"Large and tempting as they look, they were terribly oily."
"Pie were nice but the size was poor. The 'Vegetables' were less than a half a handful and even less for the chips."
"However, on my visit today the food was very subpar. The pasta and the sauce itself was very creamy, the chicken was unseasoned and tasted like it had been cooked frozen."
"Food was cold, steak was way to bloody for me."
"The pie was hard I had difficulty trying to cut it. And the carrots were hard so were the green beans."
"The pork tomahawk just tasted like charr. GENUINELY."
Ambiance & Facilities

"We were warm and dry under one of their many covered outdoor dining options."
"Really nice pub and restaurant. Dog friendly."
"Friendly service and lovely atmosphere."
"The place is charming, food and service is excellent."
"A good sized pub with indoor and outdoor seating."
"Good solid pub, wood tables chairs and flooring, enabling easy cleaning and maintenance and bringing some oldy worldly charm of Lincoln."
"Has a lovely sunny garden, perfect for warm summer days!"
Cons:
"What we are not happy about is receiving a parking charge notice from Parkingeye for a £100 because we parked in your car park to have lunch!!"
"We sat down near the toilets, which is fine if your drains or something in the toilets didn't let off such a horrendous smell of sewage."
"The outdoor seating area is good, but it's quite close to a major road junction."
"Make sure you are seated away from the restroom area however as the smell was very strong and off putting."
"Because of their city centre location people tend to abuse their car parking facilities which means it is sometimes difficult to park."
"As part of Covid restrictions, we sat in the pub garden. It was cold."
"My daughter's burger was char grilled, no problem, but left hard and chewy around the edges to the point she couldn't eat it."
