Lovely little place, staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful made you feel like you were regulars which personally i loved. Food was amazing and all freshly cooked compliments to the chefs on site. Room was very comfortable and clean, and so quiet.

Adored our stay here! The location is perfect for sightseeing, shopping and tons of dining options. The staff was lovely and accommodating and stored our luggage for us upon arrival and departure. Such a charming area to stay in and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Lincoln.

Lovely pub but rock hard beds

Lovely bar and restaurant. Staff very friendly. Room 5 was very small and the bed was the most uncomfortable bed and pillows I have ever slept on. My partner likes a hard bed but he said this was like sleeping on blue circle cerement. Shame as we stay in Lincoln quite often but would not stay again because of this.
