Wandering around Stamford wondering at the amazing aray of historic stone buildings I came across this slim fronted restaurant that opened up into a delightful Aladdin's Cave. It was a lovely day so sat in the slim outside eating area. Had a nice welcome, the menu was interesting and unusually for me I chose a vegetarian dish which was delicious but I didn't make a note of it's name. It was like a cheese pie encased in pastry on a mash of beetroot, spinach and potatoes with a pot of creamy melted cheese on the side. A deffinate call if I find myself again in Stamford.

My partner and I went here on Saturday for the first time. We were early for our booking, but they managed to get a table ready for us which was nice service. Upon being seated, we were seen to quite quickly for drink orders, and food if we had decided (which we hadn't as the menu was pretty awesome, and I couldn't decide what I wanted!). The food didn't take too long to come to us which was nice. We were so surprised by the portion size, which was huge! Very generous for what you are paying for. Presentation was great too. Once we tucked in, we were wowed by it all! Tasted brilliant, had a quirky twist on some of the dishes too. Overall, I really recommend this place, and would go back when I can.

4 blokes out for lunch prior to another lockdown.We booked a table for 4 few weeks prior to coming here. Being a Stamford resident I’ve been coming here for for years since when it was the periwig before. When it changed names and had a refurb I thought it wasn’t quite finding its identity but have to say in recent months it’s got better and better. Ironically considering all the lockdowns and covid stuff happening.Service is very good. Food is excellent and the menu is varied with some really nice options on there. Drinks are always top quality.I’ve had the Bombay banger before and loved it but was a bit confused with a what is essentially a ‘curried hotdog’. But it is really tasty.My friends both had a Bao Bun box as pictured which gave me food envy. All in all. A great place to come. If you can get in that is. Book early I’d say. If your gonna be in town a while. Get your tables booked well ahead of time and plan your time.The only thing I would say is they need to develop an app or website to allow you to order drinks food etc and pay via the app at your table to make things swifter and easier. Other places nearby do this and it’s so so much better.

Was really excited about eating here the menu read well and seemed to have something for everyone. However the food seemed to lack freshness, felt reheated. The lamb shank curry had a lentil side dish that was hard and gritty. The oak Choi bowl with chicken did not taste fresh

The service was great aa we managed to get a table for four, everyone working was observing COVID 19 rules which was great.

We booked a table online which was quick and easy, we arrived and were greeted by a lovely staff member and asked where we would like to sit, we said that we hadn’t been here before so we’re given a choice of seats, we opted for upstairs by the window overlooking Red Lion square, what a lovely place, a mixture of old and new decor, spotlessly clean and adhering to social distancing/COVID rules.We ordered food on the recommendation of the waitress, I has duck gyoza and spare ribs and had a side order of jalapeño slaw and fries, we also ordered moules frites, both were very tasty, perfectly cooked and plentiful, service throughout was attentive.We totally recommend this place, food and service was amazing, well done Paten & Co, we can’t wait to re visit.

My friend and I booked a table to celebrate our decade birthdays. I have a hidden disability and am exempt from wearing a mask. Upon arrival the young lady asked why I wasn't wearing a mask "I'm exempt" that wasn't enough, I was asked to prove it. Upon showing her I explained that I objected to having to doing so. She said 'I'm just doing my job, there's no need to be rude" My friend and I were shocked. I understand that these are difficult and confusing times but I shouldn't have to feel embarrassed and ashamed. Management please amend your policy and train your staff to be kind and understanding.

Been a while since our last visit and whilst on a week off, decided to book online for lunch, which was a breeze... there used to be the fantastic deal of 3 small plates for £10, which wasn't available obviously due to the eatouttohelpout scheme. After much deliberation, stuck with the small plates as they used to be so good - and they didn't disappoint, really good food, highlights include the Mango & Chill Panko Prawns and the Gnocchi, went for 4 to share and the portion sizes were plentiful. Staff were attentive and helpful.

The menu has changed since the historical creative pictures to be honest...but no problem. Service with a smile? ...invented here. Asked for a quiet spot, got it in spades and after the ole Lockdown was so nice to be out again. Wine list covers all budgets and very comprehensive. Eat out to help out may have helped my purse as well as the economy, in fact the savings were £10 less than the total bill (all offers included). Fab building and really happy helpful staff. MUST GO!

Food was great, staff were super friendly and attentive throughout the night. Had a great seat in the main booth on the top floor - highly recommend!

Situated in the lovely town of Stamford, this cosy establishment served up very tasty starters and mains from a manageable compact menu. An Asian leaning to some of the dishes was welcome. My wife’s Chicken Florentine was excellent. My Lamb shoulder Masala was tasty and filling , if perhaps a little too shredded. A free bottle of wine was given for ordering two mains. Social distancing was noted to be rather casual by several of the younger customers, obviously known to the owners - something to watch in these strange times.I would certainly return should I visit Stamford again.

This was our first meal eating out since lockdown and sadly disappointing.We ate as a family of 4 on the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme. We had 4 adult main courses, 5 soft drinks ,2 beers and one pudding. Without the scheme discount the bill would have been just short of £93. We really felt that this was very expensive for what we'd had.Service started off fine with menus being given and being seated and we were glad that waiting staff were not pushy and friendly when we asked for a little more time to choose. However after this it became slow and unattentive, despite the pub not being very busy. My husband wanted a second beer but had to wait until they came to clear our plates to get any attention.2 of our meals were delicious - the beef mac and cheese and the Chicken Florentine (the portion size was small for the chicken dish). The lamb masala was not what I was expecting - it was very fruity, though this was not mentioned in the description and medium hot. The Paten burger at £15 was just ok but disappointing for the price.For dessert we wanted to share a sticky toffee pudding - £8. When it arrived we asked for more spoons - this took forever so we ended up sharing 1 spoon - spoons finally arrived when we had just about finished as we were told they'd 'run out'. The pub was fairly quiet but not dead. The pudding itself was delicious but the accompanying ice cream had ice crystals in and had clearly been refrozen at some stage. The portion size was absolutely fine for a single portion but expensive at £8.The bill came fairly quickly but we decided to get up to pay as we didn't want to wait long. At the start of the meal, we were asked which bottle of house wine we'd like as we qualified for a promotion - we asked for Rose which they said we could take home given that my husband was having beer and I was driving. Throughout the entire meal this was not forthcoming and I eventually had to ask for this when I paid the bill.Overall just sadly disappointing -we have been many times before and loved both the food and service, but on this occasion just felt underwhelmed. At nearly £93 had we paid full price, sadly it is not tempting us to rush back.

I booked a table at this highly rated restaurant excited by the prospect of some lovely post lockdown food and the food was outstanding. However, the customer service and lack of social distancing left a lot to be desired. Watching a chef eat off the hot plate, encouraged by two waiters gathered around - not cleaning high touch point areas regularly was a poor start. It was clear from the outset that the other customers surrounding us were friends with the waiters, evidenced by the loud conversation and lack of individual attention we received. We requested a second glass of Prosecco just after our starter, this was forgotten and we had to ask a separate member of staff for it after all three couples who ordered after us (on separate tables in the dinning area) were served. Cleaning down of tables and cutlery is essential now, the waiter used a dirty tea towel and a quick spray of the table top, not the outside of the table or the chairs or any other areas the pervious customers could have touched. We watched a couple be sat down within roughly 50 cm of another couple, a clear violation of the social distancing laws. A real disappointment and unfortunately this is not acceptable in the current climate. Before we left we requested some water for the table, which slowly arrived. However the bottle it came in was dirty and the two glasses we were given were still dirty and sticky demonstrating a lack of cleaning. This was a real disappointment for us as we really enjoyed the food. However we must question the hygiene of the chef preparing it and the poor customer service we received means we will not be returning any time soon. A disappointing meal out.

We stopped by on a Saturday lunch time. Although it was pretty busy we managed to find a table and ordered our food which came out pretty quickly.We all ordered different dishes and there was not a complaint amongst any of us. KFC has nothing on the Chicken box meal I ate! You could tell it was quality produce being used and the batter/chicken coating was perfect.Walking past the kitchen I was surprised to see such young staff behind the counter but this shows they have all been trained very well and a lack of age does not mean lack of experience. The entire team need congratulating on being able to provide a brilliant lunch time experience.

We went here for Sunday lunch as we had heard good things about it. Food: nothing special. The roast potatoes had clearly been cooked hours before and heated up. Chewy and not crispy. Literally a dribble of gravy.To be fair, the beef was nice and the other veg was good.Service: very slow. Had to ask for condiments, they didn’t ask us if the meal was ok (probably knew it wasn’t great) and had to request the bill. By the time we had left the plates had still not been cleared.Price: over priced considering the average food and service.Don’t think we will be returning soon.

My colleague and I was in Stamford for a couple of before our train so we decided to have a lunch snack at Paten as I had read the reviews on Tripadvisor. So we visited at 12.30 on Wednesday 12th and overall we enjoyed our lunch. We had a bottle of Nero D'avola £21.00 and shared the 3 small plates deal £10.00 ( Crispy Cod, Mac n Cheese, Wild Mushroom Compote on Sourdough... which were very good). The service by Emily was attentive and pleasant but there was a problem with our final bill when we came to pay... The 3 small plates had been charged separately giving a total of £20.50 to which I pointed out with Emily and she said it was a fault of the computerised till and deducted our £10.50.

Called in Friday evening on the off chance we could get a table for two for dinner. Manager managed to find us a spot on the first floor. We chose this place as it had Vegan options, as we are both dedicated to a plant based diet. Olives to start and Chickpea curry main, we both enjoyed the main. Which the chef had spiced up a little as per our request. There is a good selection of draught beers along with the more mainstream beers, wines and spirits. The manager on the night was very professional, attentive and courteous. The staff under him were also very helpful and keen to make sure we had everything we wanted. The Paten Co layout is ground floor which has the main bar with some tables and seats should you prefer not to stand. Meals are served on the first and second floors. Decor is leaning towards the historic industrial look, but it has a cosy and warm feel. Overall a very good first impression, we will be making a return visit in the not too distant future.Hopefully the chef will have more delicious Vegan options on the menu?Hope you find this review helpful Dominic

This establishment was recommended to us today as somewhere to get a good Sunday dinner, and we definitely weren't disappointed. The building has been decorated fantastically, with an antiquated, industrial feel about it. There is a really nice ambience about the place. The food that we had was absolutely delicious. It was well presented, plentiful and very reasonably priced. The waiting staff were a delight. Our waitress, Beth, was very friendly, attentive and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for her, and it was quite clear that she was happy in her work. We had the full chicken to share, and it really was delicious. But the menu had an excellent selection of dishes that we really look forward to trying, so we look forward to our return.

We've been a few times for lunch and always have about 5 or 6 of the small plates between the two of us, kind of like tapas. We always wonder if we've over ordered but the amount is usually just right. Everything we have eaten in Paten & Co has been great. Good wine and beer selection too. For some reason we have twice got the same surly service from the girl behind the bar, (pretty girl, very long nails). Both times its like she doesn't want to be there and serving us is a massive effort. A shame as we are usually huge tip givers!

We booed a table for 2 at Paten & Co on Saturday evening. We were shown to the third floor and loved everything about the atmosphere and the staff. Our starters were perfectly cooked and amazing. Unfortunately that was not the same with the mains. I had an amazing port ribs but my wife was served with a terrible dish that had to be returned and even the waitress commented it looked disgusting. Beef ribs need to be slow cooked for 24 hours to render down the fat. This one has not and the fat was pure white. Of course we didn’t pay for that meal and were offered complimentary drinks. All that said we will give Paten & Co another try because everything else was lovely

This pub is affiliated to The Crown Hotel which is located next door the staff are very friendly and always will and able to accommodate your needs, from a couple right through to large parties this place has that Stamford cache, the food is well priced and had that point of difference from the pork scratching in a jug with apple sauce through to dirty fries all is well cooked and well presented. The atmosphere is semi industrial but not oppressive.

Went to Paten & Co to celebrate our 27th anniversary. Had a lovely meal. Atmosphere is very chilled with attentive but not intrusive service. Great range of beers and really wide menu. We both had the lamb masala curry and sticky toffee pudding. Both delicious - portion sizes are really generous. James was great - big thanks to him for the wine upgrade!

For the last two weeks, we have been having Sunday lunch here and we are booked to go this Sunday too! The chicken is to absolutely die for; so much so, that I may soon start to resemble one. Our party had the lamb and beef and they could not rave about it enough; definitely the best roast in Stamford - sorry The Crown, yours is fab too!

My wife and I visited the beautiful market town of Stamford and dropped into this pub for lunch - what a lovely surprise; the young man at the bar (called George) was extremely friending and welcoming, offering to bring over our soft drinks (I was driving) to our table - we sat at a table in the window watching the world go bar in a tastefully 'retro' pub. The food was very nice indeed, I had a Philly sandwich which was tasty, fresh and a big portion with flavoured chips ! We have a lovely lunch and wished well on our way by George as we left - I highly recommend this place for lunch.

Well we ate here last year when we came in for a spot of lunch and had a fantastic time with James the manager. This time, first of all, no kids! and secondly dinner time! We were served by the lovely Tom who was friendly and so helpful, letting the men in our group try the beers before they ordered which one they wanted, as well as an excellent recommendation for one of us. I had my favourite the Whitley Neil orange gin and Mediterranean tonic. A blonde girl - Tyler I think took us to our seat on the second floor, where we ate last time but this time in one of the booths and were served by another young man, George. This time we had what was recommended to us, the pulled pork croquettes. THESE ARE DELICIOUS! Overall everyone was brilliant as always. Tom, George and Tyler made our dinner amazing. A really lovely experience and all the employees are real assets to this company. I always try and get our servers names because if its good they deserve recognition and this establishment has brilliant staff and great food. We must try the other restaurants in the Knead group but we 10/10 would recommend Paten and Co.

Ate here twice (2 days on the trot) recently. Had the tapas both times, second time we brought some friends. All members of staff were very friendly and efficient. Allowed to sample the beer before trying. The food arrived and was absolutely fantastic. I’ve had a few tapas meals over the years but this was by far the best. Enda, the guy who served us both times was a credit to the company. He couldn’t do enough for us. Even taking his time for a good chat about where we were from, where he was from etc. He gave us a run down of the history of the building, a building which is really interesting and well set out. We come to Stamford fairly regularly and this will now be our first port of call.

As we are having Sunday lunch at Paten & Co this has prompted me to put an overdue review of our previous breakfast visit. Having been let down by a nearby in Stamford breakfast eatery we made our first visit to Patens. Wonderful warm friendly welcome with plentiful supplies of iced water on a hot day. Placed our breakfast order and then sat chatting, after a short delay the staff advised our order had not gone through to the kitchen due to a printer fault. Our breakfasts arrived swiftly after this and were all deemed by us to be one of the best ever and well worth the wait. Our waiter was highly apologetic for the delay and insisted on us eating for free despite our protestations that it didn't matter at all and we would have happily paid. The fantastic staff and interesting and sympathetically renovated pub were a pleasure to visit.

Four of us enjoyed drinks and dinner tonight. Decided to share the meat platter and a couple of small plates for starters, with was perfect. Then strangely we all opted for the sticky rib with wasabi mash for main... service was outstanding and even though we were tucked round the corner in a lovely window booth we were always looked after by the lovely George &James.; Big thank you to you both for making a lovely evening.

Outstanding location, excellent food and service. The Chef and Team are clearly proud of their Restaurant and Food, rightly so. It transpried that the Lead front of house lady and chef/owner have worked together for a long time and it showed in every aspect. The decor, layout and the eclectic mix of decorations, lamps and accessories is creative and fresh which, given they have been open eight years says it all. Thank you so much, Lee & Cheryl.

In my opinion this coffee shop is high up on the list of places to drop into. I had fresh scrambled eggs with oodles of smoked salmon on toast, and they served it up exactly as requested. All with a smile. The place is buzzing with people, but I never felt rushed to move on, even though my visit was on a Friday morning market day. Fully recommended for friendly welcoming service, and great food.

'Stage 2 Coffee House' in Stamford's old corn exchange is a pleasant place for lunch or coffee and cake. The tables are surrounded by interesting vendor stalls selling antiques, records and handicrafts whilst colourful bunting hangs above your head. The iced latte I had was very good as was the Brie, Bacon and Onion Chutney Panini. Prices are very reasonable too.
