B17 Cafe in East Lindsey

Sat in the fresh air on a picnic bench eating great fish and chips and watching the world go by. Oh and people trying to park cars for amusement. What more could you ask for.

I have just been there with my family for mother's day. Initially we booked in to the Old Chequers Inn (the sister pub as their social media says) to be told it wasn't there we were booked in to but there was availability at Poplar Farm. When we got there we were told the first drinks were om the chef due to the confusion which we all appreciated. We realised that they were linked and had the same menu so wonder if we were supposed to be here initially but that was never communicated at the time, someone had our booking but noone wanted to admit to it. We then had to wait 45 minutes to order our starter, and then had then another 30ish minutes between the starter and main. I am not unreasonable and accept they were busy due to Mothers Day but I feel that is no excuse for poor customer service, especially when we had been so put out in the first place. When my mother went to them at the end to explain where the confusion came from with the intention of giving polite constructive criticism, she was told it was her fault and the lady just didn't want to know. The positives were that the food was lovely and that the portion sizes were more than generous, however the customer service being so poor has meant there are six people here currently who will not be going back.

Food, for the money can't complain to be fair Woman serving couldn't do maths though and all of us (3 groups) noticed at least £20 extra on our receipt to comment and correct seemed the woman must of been doing it purposely to rob folk! One of staff was quite rude and angry don't know whatever had happened before we got there but she was very snappy and unpolite aswell as slamming and banging about luckily as more customers entered she sort of "pulled the reigns" I reckon with a different member of staff it could hit 5 stars although I'll stick to my 4 for the rudeness

We stopped here when travelling back home from a break away. We were served promptly, food was great. Ours boys wanted "Iron Man' soup :-) (red pepper and tomato) which they really enjoyed. Staff friendly. Thanks, we'll be back when back in the area again! Definitely recommend. 👍🏻

A gem of a find. We stayed 2 nights in our motorhome. Lots of spaces, but call ahead as they do get filled up. It's free to stop over if you eat / drink at the pub. If you want EHU, it's £5 a night. Toilets open all night. We had fish and chips, absolutely amazing and big portions. The staff and owners were so friendly and welcoming. Dog friendly, too. A lovely 2 mile walk to the beach, we walked along the beach to Mablethorpe Sea Front. Would definitely recommend it and will look forward to going back another time. Thank you.
