Britannia Inn in North Lincolnshire

New landlord new pub new lease of life

Nice pub, and friendly staff and the drinks were at good prices that's why I've given 4 stars We went for the quiz, which was a total disaster. Too many questions and picture rounds and questions were read at breakneck speed, didn’t have time to get another drink If they get a decent quizmaster, we might go back, but otherwise won't bother

Always good to review a pub now and again! The newly refurbished Britannia, pool, outdoor area £5 for pint, coke and peanuts, can't complain! Only thing missing is some bar meals.

Waitress was fabulous. We had a lovely meal and drinks.

I love this place since its opened again. I just wish it'd find it's footing, sometimes opening hours are hit and miss. They know when to leave you alone and when you want a little chat. Much more personal service than wetherspoons and the music helps with the atmosphere. I generally come here to unwind a little or when I need a little time to sort my head out and the staff make it the best place in Brigg to do just that. I look forward to seeing this pub thrive in the near future.

Super welcoming and friendly staff!! Lovely atmosphere, would definitely recommend

Always excellent Britain Inn. Delicious cooked meal on Sunday with very polite staff. Always feel welcoming

Great food and service, all friendly including the pub cat Ginger. Child's portions generous

Enjoyed the couple of nights I spent here recently although I never tasted the food just the alcohol 😂

This is a local peoples pub,welcoming but standard stuff. Pub could do with some work but that's not the landlords fault!

Good beer. Friendly staff and clean.

Fantastic great Public House xxxx 💕

Great local pub, very friendly staff and patrons. Large garden out the back too for when it is sunny. Parking available if you're lucky

Great place to go.. very friendly

Had sunday lunch at this pub with my husband and my parents. The food was excellent and plenty of it. You could have other meals apart from a sunday lunch. I had the roast pork, my husband had the roast beef, my father had chicken and my mum had vegetarian lasagne. The landlord, Shane was an excellent host and not in your face. There was a good selection on the sweet menu and we all had apple crumble and custard, beautiful. This was my first visit since Shane took over and we are going again for valentines. I would highly recommend this pub. Overall, 100%

Enjoyed a 3 course Christmas lunch, excellent food and friendly service.

Nice lunch, hot food friendly service. Relaxed atmosphere. Cottage pie, lasagne, sausage and mash and large Yorkshire were all really good

Absolutely fantastic meal really friendly staff highly recommend this place

Friendly staff and a sociable atmosphere! Good beer and fab food! Highly recommended :)

What an amazing afternoon/evening at the Brit!!! A family birthday celebration along with a huge buffet x nothing too much trouble for our party then a disco and karaoke to follow a friendly family run pub x staff so helpful and great x impossible to fault and would highly recommend for any occasions x all I can say is blummin brilliant and thanks xxxx

Went here for a lunch time meal with some work colleagues on a business lunch. How embarrassing as had seen some great photos advertising delicious food. How wrong could you get with that one.... The food was horrendous. We were served chips that had obviously been cooked the day before and then warmed up in a microwave. The sandwich fillings were non-existent. This is such a shame as prior to the pub being taken over by The Brit Kitchen it was a fantastic place to eat and we ate there on a regular basis. The Brit Kitchen has to be the worst place I have eaten in Brigg and would definitely not be going back there. Plenty of great places to eat in Brigg so will be avoiding this one

Visited Brittannia for Sunday roast, lovely and £7.95 with pint - good food, good value, nice atmosphere! Well worth a visit, we will be returning again.

Popped in last minute and the staff were very helpful, couldn’t enough to please and the food was lovely!! Will be returning

Friendly, cheerful and accommodating staff. Good staple pub food.

It was very good when it first opened, but change of ownership....irregular opening hours and average food have made this a rather unloved pub in Brigg. The menu is basic and adequate.

Friendly place to spend an afternoon of darts and added bonus of watching Sky sports now brill

Great pub .. Give it a visit with a good choice of beers

A very good atmosphere, brilliant service, & food

Fantastic food great music very friendly

A lunch time well spent taking hot meals to elderly and lonely in the Brigg Area. Three hours well spent, well done Shane.

Lovely friendly and welcoming pub

Friendly fast service and Emma is fit

Another great Veterans Breakfast for the NAAFI break enjoyed by ex serving members with wives or girlfriends with good criack.

Very good food, plenty on the plate and a good price. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. Kate and Mark are very accommodating and couldn't do enough to make you feel at home. Would definitely go again.

Fantastic food. Fantastic service coped well with 3 fussy kids will definitely be back again very soon..would highly recommend trying the Sunday roast a choice of 3 meats all home made 😁

Was passing through Brigg and needed some lunch when we came across this small pub serving food. Straihht away thr staff were super pleasant amd welcoming. The menu was a little random with something for everyone but the friendly staff were willing to chop or change anything. They sorted the kids a easy chicken nugget and chips which they was most thankful for. Myself i had a steak which was cooked to perfection and I really find that. We shall definitely be popping by again.

Meal was very nice drink was good too .music loud but enjoyable to listen to not very full but relaxable.staff friendly I will go again.

Good food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere!

Friendly, reasonable prices, home cooked food on a Sunday.

We were in the Brittannia last night, there was karaoke for entertainment, it was great fun. The pub has a friendly atmosphere. Hand pulled ales i highly recommend, well priced when you take into account the entertainment. The pub has lots to offer, i was talking too the bar staff who were very friendly, they told us there was live entertainment once a month. We plan on returning to this traditional pub.

Tried this out as it's been dressed up after a decent makeover. We walk passed on numerous occasions and we cannot think why it's always empty. So we entered £17 for drinks but NO ice available or limes for the GnTs none forthcoming!! Very odd you'd think they'd bend over backwards to get people going in but nope can't get basics right what's the point? Too much competition locally who do bother with the simple things in life🙄

Poor quality food, overcooked and over priced. When asked if the meal was o/k I said it is overcooked. She just walked away and went over to the bar. The place needs a revamp, a new cook and new management.

Arrived with a party of 12 after lovely walk. All ordered the Sunday lunch which was either pork or beef. Most chose beef, including myself. Now, when you are paying £8.95 you expect reasonable quality. When the food arrived i took one look at the beef and thought it looked poor. I preceded to taste and yes, it was tough, chewy, inedible. So much so, it put me off the rest of the meal which looked ok. The others all agreed that the quality of the beef was very poor. When asked if the meal was ok by a member of staff we told her it wasn't good. She acknowledged us and carried on serving at the bar. So all in all, we left very dissapointed with the food and the response from the staff. Will not return.

Since this place is 'just over the road' from our house, we've witnessed its 'rise and fall' with interest, and more recently sadness.

Having visited in the past and received great food and service hoped the change in management and chief wouldn't have spoiled it pleased to say it hasn't

We went for an early evening meal, our first visit to the restaurant. A decent menu with sensible pricing was a good start, unfortunately the staff have not much clue with wines, so that was difficult as we are not beer drinkers! We chose fish and chips, which did come with a "whale" of a clue, probably best shared! The fish was well cooked with good batter, unfortunately badly presented as it broke when chef was plating up, which brings the main grumbe, the fish was placed on top of the chips, which is guaranteed to make the chips soggy. I am not a fan of chips or wedges with skins left on, though accept this is a matter of taste, but I really don't do soggy.

We went here last Saturday and I was really disappointed with the service. The pub is reasonable but the service really let it down. I asked for a Sauvignon Blanc and they'd completely ran out so I had to settle with either a Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio, which I have to be honest are far from my favourites. We were then told we could sit anywhere, to be told 10 minutes later we'd sat in a reserved table (nothing on the table would have suggested that). We were then told to move, to then be told we could sit back down as their reserved guests preferred to sit somewhere else. The atmosphere in the pub was lacking and it all felt a bit flat. I overheard the waitresses at a few other tables apologising for running out of things after orders had already been taken. The whole experience put me off ever wanting to try the place for food - and most probably even a drink again.

None of us had been in since the revamp and we thought we'd give it a try for a family birthday celebration. We were all impressed. The service was very good, the food excellent and the price very reasonable. Could do with a bit more vegetarian choice but we understand that's in hand. Will be back.

The food and staff were good. However, there is room for improvement, which can quite easily been done.

This is a consistently good place to eat in Brigg. I can't fault the food, it's all good, and great quality. Be warned, the big burger stack is huge! If the chicken was free range, it'd be perfect!

Good service and a delicious dinner. We did have to wait 45 minutes after ordering for the meal but it was definitely worth waiting for. The "posh fish and chips" was particularly tasty. Will be returning.

Went here last Sunday. Wasn't sure if they would still be serving as it was after 7 but yes they were till 8 o'clock 😊 The food was gorgeous and staff very welcoming 👍 We will definitely be returning 🙌

We had an early evening meal starting with garlic mushrooms followed by stuffed Spanish chicken with layered potatoes and fresh vegetables. Everything was beautifully presented and the flavours were as good as other restaurants in the area that charge 3 times more.

A welcoming pub with excellent food all cooked from fresh,good range of beers and wines--not forgetting the gins.

Popped in for a pint before moving on for a meal and I was very impressed by how different the place is (ten years since my last visit!). Friendly staff and good beer. The food looked and smelt fantastic, I'll be back to sample the food very soon.

Visited with family who had eaten here once before and they said it was good and worth going. They had booked a table ( no one knew that when we arrived) but it wasn't necessary as only 3 persons eating when we arrived. Waitress service slow considering place nearly empty- had to go and find to order dessert. Food though was very good and reasonably priced. Very pleasant surrounds- clearly a lot of money has been recently spent - new furniture, nicely decorated. Worth a visit. Would have given 4 stars if booking had been noted and service prompt- we had no problem waiting for food though.

Great food! felt welcome from the get go!! Friendly staff!

Excellent quality and well looked after beer. Have also eaten here and would highly recommend it. Give them a call if you're a larger party so they can fit you in.

I reviewed this place shortly after it first started to serve food, earlier in the year, and gave it a very good review, expressing hope that it would maintain that standard.

If you like interesting home cooked food in lovely surroundings with great ales - visit this place. The stuffed chicken breast in particular was amazing. My son doesn't eat mushrooms or gravy but the creamy mushroom sauce was just delicious. He scoffed the lot! Hubby had the liver - not eaten it for 20 yrs but it had such an amazing depth of flavour in the sauce. We waited a bit longer for the food but who cares. No ping ping food here. One last thing - I will be dreaming about those chips!

Having come back from a weekend away with friends at another friends hotel in Scotland, we decided to give the good old Britannia a whirl for some evening fayre after a long drive.

We booked in advance a table for four and when we arrived discovered there was a charity event on. This wasn't an issue but would have preferred someone to let us know beforehand because our meal was a right disaster! We asked what the specials were and after ordering the waitress then came back and informed us that only beef lasagne was available which when it came was pretty poor!

I dined here for the first time recently with a friend. It was early evening and very quiet to start with. We were given a warm welcome by the staff and then found a table and looked at the menu. The order was taken at the table for both food and drinks which was nice. Everything on the menu was available and they also had a specials board.

Visited for the 3rd time- again for lunch,My first visit-Excellent ! 2nd was very good but my 3rd was very average, Service was very slow even though it was not busy,Mistakes were made with the food order which is annoying when 1 out of 5 diners is having to wait for their food whilst everyone else is served ?? Also the quality of the food/presentation seems to have suffered ??

My Wife and I went with my mother and father after the good reviews we had read. My mother is quite fussy and even she enjoyed it!

I've visited twice to make sure the first visit was not a one off. Both times the meals were excellent. Prices are also reasonable.

Went there yesterday-the food was gorgeous-beef & ale stew which melted in the mouth. 4 of us ate & all cleared our plates. Didn't really notice a long wait as we were talking but didn't seem long at all. we had 2 meals for £10 which we found was plenty for lunchtime.

I visited the britannia recently its a nice cosy little pub the alcohol is very pricey however the food is very well priced i really enjoyed the food. The only letdown was it took nearly 45 mins to bring our food from ordering

I've been twice for a meal at the Britannia now, twice in the last month. Both meals were good hearty home cooking. The steak pie is one of the best I have had! Staff were very attentive and friendly. The only negatives are that we were waiting quite a while for our food to arrive on both occasions which I think is a common complaint at the moment, the only other thing was that the Yorkshire pud with my Sunday roast was too salty and had also been left reheating in the oven too long as it was quite hard. My friend had said the same on her recent visit.

Following its recent refurb we decided to give 'The Brit' a go one Sunday. We've heard mixed reviews; generally that food is great but that customers can experience long waits at busy times

Have visited here 3 times now so have given them a good opportunity to get it right. The first 2 visits were at lunch time and on both occasions we were waiting nearly an hour for our food....odd as it was only panninis etc. The last visit was for dinner and although the pub was not busy when we gave our order..2 minutes later they came back to tell us that they had run out of steak. We made another selection then 2 minutes later came back to say that our friends selection they had also run out of. Eventually we got our dinners which was actually very nice. Well presented with a good selection of vegetables. I then asked for decaf coffee....2 minutes later told that too they had run out of!!

We went on a Saturday night, about 6:30. It wasn't too busy when we arrived. The service was fine with the first drinks and order taking. The starter took 20-30 mins to arrive. We then waiting 40 minutes more for the main, where they didn't bring the extra sides we'd ordered, didn't bring the drinks we'd asked for, and didn't take away empty glasses so we didn't have much room left on the tiny table. I would have loved a pudding but I wasn't waiting any more. No one apologised for anything, which annoyed me. I'd be happier if they'd just explained they were busy and were polite. When I went round the other side of the bar to get and pay the bill, there were 4 waitresses stood chatting at the bar.

Not been in Britannia since it has been refurbished. Was recommended to give a try. Was not sure what to expect! Had a good evening with friends. Good atmosphere and enjoyable meal. Will definitely go again.

They have done a nice transformation of this pub. Went in Saturday night without a reservation and they fitted us in. Standard pub menu with a few extras. Portion size is large especially the fish and chips. A better quality dining experience than its nearest rival but you do pay for that. Service was attentive. I would go again

We visited for the first time ever on a Sunday night at about 7.30pm without booking. We had heard a good report and were hoping for good things. As we had never been there before we cannot compare the old with the refurbished, but it had certainly been done sympathetically and was a nice pub inside. After checking they were still serving food, we ordered drinks and took a seat in the smaller area to the left of the entrance. My wife had seen the menu in advance and was looking forward to a rib eye steak. She started to make her order only to be told there were no steaks left. I asked if there was anything else not available before we reconsidered and the waitress listed another 3 or 4 menu items. So we had to have a few minutes for a rethink. My wife was very disappointed, but we carried on and she ordered a steak pie and I ordered sea bass from the specials board. I was going to have a starter, but with the messing around decided to pass on this occasion. A little while later the waitress returned to tell me that I could have the sea bass, but it would no longer be with a prawn and salmon risotto and seafood bonbon, but would instead be on a bed of crushed potato (mash to most of us). I queried if the price would be lower than the advertised £10.95 and she said she believed so. Then we waited 40 minutes and our food was duly brought over - friends had warned us of this delay so we were prepared, but we were not advised by the staff on the night. By this time our drinks were finished so we ordered another round. The sea bass and mash (which by now was all it was) was nice enough. The fish was tasty with a crispy skin, but nothing like the original dish should have been obviously and I had eaten it all in about 5 or 6 minutes which was disappointing for one of the more expensive mains. My wife on the other hand loved her pie, chips and veg and could hardly eat it all there was so much. Then came the bill. This was £33. The sea bass had been reduced in price by £1, the two beers and two 250ml glasses of Merlot came to just short of £15 and the rest was the food. The waitress service was good, the meals were nicely presented and showed promise, but the non-availability of several main courses, the long delay, the insubstantial fish dish and the expensive drinks make this only an average night out at this stage. We will probably try it again at some point and hope for better next time.

this was our first visit but will certainly not be our last, we visited on Saturday night 28th February, with our friends who have eaten here before and loved the food, lovely menu, varied with a twist. We ordered drinks and chatted with staff about time of service for meals, we ordered starters and main dishes, I had creamy garlic mushrooms with ciabatta bread, absolutely gorgeous, one of the best I've ever tasted, hubby had black pudding with duck egg on top on bed of mustard sauce, friends had fish coujons which she stated Were gorgeous lovely light batter and meaty fish, for my main I had chicken breast stuffed with bacon cheese, on a bed of crushed potatoes with a beautiful mushroom sauce, and seasonal veg, the chicken was succulent and tasty, loved the take on the mash, 2 friends had seabass on a bed of prawn risotto, with seasonal veg, that they said was one of the best risotto's they have had, 1 friend had steak an ale pie, chips and veg with gravy, which he said was absolutely lovely, great taste and full of juicy meat. The service and friendliness of the staff made for a very enjoyable evening, nothing was to much trouble, defiantly will be returning as we are now going to work our way through the brilliant menu. Give it a go you will not be disappointed xxxx thank you to the staff, lovely atmosphere. XXXX

We tried this restaurant for the first time as we had heard good reports. I ordered a Thai prawn curry and my husband tried to order ham and chips. They had run out of ham, and then sausages and they also didnt have any sparkling water which I drink. He ended up ordering a chili which was supposed to come with sour cream - you've guessed it, no sour cream. They brought the food before the cutlery. Paper napkins and no condiments on the table. I didn't really enjoy my food, it did the job. As the Naan that accompanied my curry cooled it became hard.

This is a pub that serves excellent food at reasonable prices. We had the small plates which were two meals for £10. Be warned, they are small but as we arrived in Brigg later than planned we did not want a full meal. We had the beef stew which was served in a small pot with mashed potato and peas on the plate. We also had a selection of vegetable to share. The meat was in a very unctuous sauce with great flavour. The food being served to the other diners were large portions and I would say great value for money. The Britannia also serves a good range of beer cider and wine.

The Brittania had been a dump for some time but has recently been refurbished by the new tenant. The atmosphere is much better and no longer a spit and sawdust boozer.

Visited here on Tuesday evening on the off chance they would have a table and although they were busy they managed to find myself and my husband a table, staff were very friendly and helpful and the meal was lovely, would definitely recommend, good portions, reasonable prices, tasty food.

Never actually been so appalled with somewhere enough to write a review of a place I have 'tried' to visit before, I have to say tried as getting food out of this place is like getting your girlfriend to admit she's wrong, which we all know is nie impossible.

We popped in for lunch and what a lovely experience the two of us had. The service was very friendly and professional and the food is a very high tasty standard and the place looked great. We will be regulars, well done Calvin and the crew, lovely, great addition to Brigg.

Saw all the signs outside stating the specials all day,but when went in the meal didnt start while 6 !!!

First came in just after the renovation and was pleasantly surprised by what had been done, nicely revamped but only a handful of punters. A couple of other visits only confirmed my fears that maybe the good folk of Brigg weren't taking to it. Visited tonight and there's a completely different feel, a proper pub with a lovely atmosphere. Spoke to several people who'd eaten and they were very complimentary. Looks like a good addition to the burgeoning Brigg pub scene.

Visited the newly opened Britannia with family this weekend after hearing several excellent reviews regarding the quality of food on offer

We booked to eat as a family. The food was excellent, staff very friendly and the atmosphere was warm. Couldn't fault anything. Can't wait to call in again. Booking is advisable.

Decided to visit following a write up in the local press. Wasn't disappointed with any aspect of the meals served. We were a large group and meals were a little slow in coming, but well worth the wait! Brilliant home cooked, piping hot, fresh produce - couldn't fault anything.

The Britannia Inn has been completely refurbished and is under new owners....

So the reinvented Britannia has added a new dimension to Brigg, providing a classier and more relaxing alternative to its neighbour, the White Horse. It's certainly a massive transformation over what is was a year ago, and apart from the poorly made-over gents toilet.
