Priory in North Lincolnshire

The Priory is the best place to watch the big games home of sport

Excellent service good food and very welcoming

Really enjoyed another afternoon/evening visit to the Priory in a private area for my Mum’s 80th birthday event. Buffet was great, freshly made, lots of choice and plentiful - sausage rolls are a must try! Virtual jukebox was great for picking music for all tastes. Andy and his team were really helpful despite it being a busy afternoon and drinks prices were really reasonable especially for someone from ‘down south’. Locals and bar staff were welcoming, quick service and a friendly atmosphere. If you need a venue to host an event with a great buffet selection to choose from, give the Priory a try.

Third time we visited and saddly it was even worse than before The tables are left dirty, I had to ask for the table to be wiped Only two members of staff working We waited for nearly an hour before we decided to ask for a refund and went else where Staff are always nice, there needs a revamp of management as you can see mould around plus sockets, ran out of Sunday roast ams other food and it's just dirty I rarely write negative reviews, this isn't a personal attack, as I once worked in a pub it can do better

Came for our tea lovely service from miah. Food was prompt, beautiful and great value. Impressed will definitely call again.

Steaks, all right, but the rare steak was medium-rare, the medium-rare more well-done.

Service was poor the staff was walking around and no one was on bar that time when we standing to order the food. The chips was not taste good it's better cut potato and made at home to be honest.

Excellent evening, was invited to play bingo with cards, very random but joined in and made to feel extremely welcome! This venue doesn't seem like a "local bar" at first sight, but within an hour, we were made to feel like regulars. Couldn't ask for more! See you when me and my better half are in the area!!

Katie is no1 chef! Amazing service and such a charm

Excellent venue, shout-out to Katie (Im sure that's her name) behind the bar,very attentive, and actually remembered our drinks.. legend! And also Andy the manager, made us feel very welcome and acted more like a friend than anything. Excellent experience 😄

Sausage was still raw in middle it was rectified when asked chips were a little under done they also dont serve smirnoff ice

Lovely stop off food looks lovely only stayed for a drink

Lovely afternoon at Lionel Richie, staff and experience excellent

Beth Good’s people skills are horrific and the service she gave most times was woeful. One that won’t be missed!

Service great despite it being a busy Saturday afternoon, credit to the staff who were cheerful and a great laugh

Great food. Great prices. Staff are fabulous.

Enjoy pub , great sports ,staff all great 👍

Great pub great atmosphere great food

Very impressed with the food and service today, Katie was exceptional, very bubbly young lady

Outstanding pub love the atmosphere, especially when the footies on, Katie is a good girl and really friendly

Great community hub with good beer and loads of telly’s to watch all the sports. Cheapest pint in Ashby as well.

Andy and staff very lovely and friendly. Sky sports horse racing etc. food lovely

Fantastic service. On late notice they came up trumps and put on some food for our football team and our opponents. Would definitely recommend.

Bar Manager is ignorant! Rest of bar staff are great just hope he isnt around when you turn up!

Sat at the Priory awaiting another great afternoon of entertainment with my friends. We are loving these monthly tribute acts after a two course meal, fun and laughter. On a Thursday afternoon, you can’t beat it. Well done Andi 👍

The best pub to watch a footie match Scunthorpe.

Favourite pub, best kareoke, cheap pints

Karaoke at priory is amazing it's better than black door

Fantastic meal on Sunday, lovely dinner top marks to the chef.

Fantastic place enjoy the pool nights with my mates

Best place in town to watch the footy, Andy just needs to teach the team to make half and half like him

Fantastic pub, lovely friendly staff, really enjoy my visits

Had a really nice meal and desert with husband.Lovely service would recommend

Best mal and nightlife in town, super friendly staff, and a great place to meet friends, love my pool nights with the boys

Banging food, banging service, banging manager

Racing and football on the tvs on a Saturday afternoon, was asked to keep the noise down……in a pub, back to Queensway next week *if the feedback is disappointing, maybe ask your bar staff not to shout across the bar at paying customers to “be quiet” *

Had a very nice meal today,(23rd January)it's our wedding anniversary, got a complimentary glass of prosesco thank you guys

Ordered a full English breakfast the beans were stone cold. My friend ordered hunters chicken again the baked beans stone cold. Drinks were nice.

Excellent pub for sport staff are ace

We are not from the area but was visiting friends. I rang the pub to enquire if they were cooking & if they were dog friendly. A lady replied yes to both. I said we shall be there around 2-2:30pm. I didn’t give a name or amount. However on arrival I just asked if we were in the correct part of the pub for the dogs. Yes the gentleman behind the bar replied. Then a lady popped out from the other bar to say I’ve reserved you that table over there. On approach we could see the table had been reserved with a lovely message on it. What a great pub, great atmosphere and lovely food. Thank you team Priory

Very nice place will definitely visit again

It's been a long time since I was in there.

Second time called, very disappointed with service.

Excellent service from Beth who looked after us during the afternoon as there were 16 people in our party so she was always happy, friendly and helpful with us. The food was excellent and plenty of it some of us had the festive menu and the others the normal menu, the kitchen staff were excellent too especially Katie and Charlie. Very friendly staff and feel to the place and with TV'S with sport on to entertain if you wanted it, would thoroughly recommend this pub/restaurant to anyone in the Scunthorpe area as it was Very good value for money for what we got for the money.

Always love Wednesday karaoke at the priory!! Great atmosphere and people

Excellent pub for meals and drinks

Great place with a friendly welcoming atmosphere

Absolutely brilliant place, really welcoming and friendly staff, awesome food at great prices with plenty of dishes under a tenner, decent pool table, great and varied events, brilliant function room and a fantastic pub definitely recommend if your in the area.

Great friendly pub, I attend a regular boardgame club every Tuesday in the function room. Staff are great and prices are good 😊

Went in last night for a social event and had a great time.. good food friendly service and good prices

Top notch staff, food is amazing. Atmosphere couldn't be better, only complaint I have is I can't give 6 stars

Came here Friday night for our school reunion, we rented a room at the back but used the same bar as everyone else, a lovely atmosphere and lovely polite staff that was very helpful Would return again 😃

We had our 12 January 1963 Wedding Reception still going strong.

Very nice place. The staff is very friendly and the food is wonderful!!! I am absolutely faithful to my Hunter's Chicken!!! Just love it!

Had a great meal here iit was great very helpful and friendly service didn't have to wait long for food looking forward to going again

The food always comes really quick and it's great and consistent quality food. The delicious beer is served cold in the appropriate glasses. Lots of outdoor seating as well, I like to smoke a cigarette while drinking beer outside sometimes and it's absolutely blooming lovely. Got pool here as well.

Went to a wake 65 people one serving only unbelievable how long would you wait for a meal never again

Long standing old town pub. Had refurb few years ago...still a good place to meet up for drinks. Meals good and a good choice.

We held my husband’s 70th birthday party at The Priory in the Function Room last Saturday night with Family and Friends Can highly recommend the place for a private party. The buffet all came out on time and the food was delicious and fresh. The hot items of food were piping hot and plenty of it. Booked a singer called Steve (from the Common Faults) who was recommended to us by Andy, the Manager. He was very good. All the staff on the night were helpful and attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Well done Andy, Beth, Tempany, Mia, Lewis and Chris (and not forgetting Tracey and Katy who worked hard behind the scenes and prepared the buffet - a big well done). You were all amazing. Thank you. X

We Went to the Priory for our friend's birthday party and was so pleased we did.There was a buffet meal which was excellent and the staff were so welcoming. The atmosphere was great. Highly recommend

Lovely friendly service. Food cooked well and looked good when it came our, also tasted good. Will be back soon.

Lovely Staff Great Food which was nice and hot and Reasonable prices too. Will definitely be going to priory for food more often it was delicious.

Just cooked for a pint Saturday lunchtime. Very quiet. but cup final on later.

Went primarily to have a drink while watching football on TV. The atmosphere was good and the staff friendly and helpful. Have been very regularly due to the football on television. I have been served by several different members of staff and thanked them all individually. Would like to name them, though. Thank you Mel, Timpany (hope I got that right), Chris, Lewis, Lia and last night Katie.

We're not locals but popped in for dinner as we were in the area. The staff Chris and Beth (hope I got that right guys) were incredibly welcoming, attentive and I genuinely felt they really cared about there customers experience. The food was great and amazing value for money, I highly recommend the steak n ale pie chips n peas ( with proper gravy). All in all I highly recommend this place. We'll done guys great job 👍👍👍. If we are in Scunthorpe again we will definitely pop in for a beer and a bite.

Great place , bit of a shame greene King has taken stella artois out !!! but spose with the pay increase beggars can't be choosers ,but priory is great

The food here is lovely we came for a meal last night despite them not having fish in so I couldn't get the fish platter I still enjoyed my steak with scampi 😋

Great food at good prices and reasonably priced drinks ,lovely friendly staff .brilliant service thank you .

Great place to watch football and friendly staff. Always liked coming here.. Only issue is the overpriced pool table which is now £1.50 a game with no cues with tips and no chalk either. Shame as my son loves a game at half time. If you're going to charge that much, provide the basic equipment at least.

Was good atmosphere food was lovely

Been a few times in past couple of weeks. Mainly off the seniors menu. Good food at a reasonable price. Very pleasant staff. We chose the Priory as it was just about the only dog friendly place to have lunch in Scunthorpe.

I went for a few drinks on Saturday, the atmosphere was great. The live band was great and the drinks were a good price, the only downfalls was the lack if staff on such a busy night, we were waiting 25 mins for a drink x

Discussed we ordered food and drinks though the app to are table we got are drinks okay but left waiting for food for nearly 2 hours only for my husband to go and ask for it to be told they had bought it out and no one claimed it to it being warmed up it the microwave the then having hot salad, soggy bun at the bottom chewy on top not the best food. Down right shoking that there was no option of a refund either, the food was rank definitely won't be going again!!! If you value your taste buds then I wouldn't come here!

Visited for clubland night tonight and have to say the service we received by the barmaid was second to none. Attentive and helpful and good to see a bubbly smiley person behind the bar. Great atmosphere made for a good experience. Will definitely be back.

Food fantastic and lovely staff.

Lovely staff, great atmosphere for watching football and live bands!

Went in for a couple of pints before Christmas dinner disappointed that they didn't have any Newcastle brown AGAIN I used to be a regular there for 25years or more a new manager came in and stopped serving Newcastle brown I left vowing to never return then a new manager came in and said he would start serving it again and he did only to be told on Christmas day that they didn't serve it anymore I don't ever see a reason to ever go in again

Fabulous meal and a lovely glass of wine. Great prices. Extremely dog friendly too.

Beer nice and cold pub cold food cold but toilets warm

First time of being in here in 27 years,certainly changed alot but great atmosphere in there,alcohol free beers and ciders on sale there too,good range of beerx and ciders on tap.disco on that night and food being served,worth a visit!

Was a fantastic meal and we stayed for the Football England and France was a nail biting game but we enjoyed it but sorry for England 🇬🇧

Came for a family birthday meal. 2x payers but for same table ordering at same time. There was a good 20 min wait between first group of meals to second, some of the party had finished eating. No apology for the delay but accepted. Ordered the gammon and eggs and the eggs were raw, placed atop the gammon. Asked if the meal was okay as I was taking a pic of the raw eggs so I said that no, the eggs were near raw which considering the time the meal took to come was pretty bad. Food and as hot but egg yolk was visibly gooey. I'll try and attach a pic. Briskly asked if I wanted it taking back/refund and so I said refund would be preferred due to time waiting. Meal was taken away and back to kitchen, fair play. I went to the bar for some drinks and was thrusted the change in to my hand with no questioning of how the meal was paid - not paid by myself and paid by card, refunded in cash. This should have been refunded to the card which it was paid by as per any standard cash handling policy. The staff member was rude and only spoke to confirm his name when asked - Andy. 2 drinks were ordered, no thankyou or basic communication. Customer service standards are clearly lacking. While I appreciate that this time of year can be busy, there were 9 customers othe than our 4 person party this evening. It was not busy by any account. Staff were back and forth to the kitchen with plenty of laughs but sitting and waiting for this period of time while half of the party was eating is pretty bad. In direct view of the path from kitchen to bar too. The food was appalling and the service was questionable at best. We won't be coming back any time soon

Excellent atmosphere great food and fantastic beer prices nothing is ever to much for them

Absolutely my favourite place to go for a bite to eat and watch the sports, live music nights are also amazing

Absolutely love my visits to the Priory, had a lovely lasagne today, and the kids love they’re chicken nugget meal’s fantastic for the family

Great pub! Highly recommended, good beer at a good price. Fantastic staff, the best atmosphere for an England game. Good range of band nights and disco/karaoke.

This used to be the best place in Scunthorpe for food and drinks but unfortunately our last few visits here have left us feeling underwhelmed. Hardly any guest ales available to try and the traditional Sunday dinner was served eventually Luke warm and some items listed on the menu missing too. Very little staff on hand to assist customers. The Priory has lost its spark ever since the pandemic, we have gave it a chance 3 times now but not anymore. It is in need a major improvement. I hope it does become great once again in the future.

Food was good, beer was good, company was excellent, nothing more needed.

Visited the pub on numerous occasions both for a few drinks and to have meals with the family. Previous visits were good but sadly this did not continue on this visit. Came today as a family of 7 and only 2 people could have the food they ordered as the rest of what we had ordered was unavailable. Although there were alternatives ment repeated visits back to the bar to reorder.When the order arrived we then collected our own cutlery and condiments even though we was waiting for in excess of a hour. Sadly this reiterates that the need for continuity and the management of food orders should be considered. At our visit the staff were friendly and tried to accommodate. Sadly the new pool table itself is also costly to that in other venues which means facilities are also limited.

Local pub food OK. Friendly staff

Changed a lot since our last visit and the menu looks good will try it again soon.

Timmy Taylor's is spot on. Cider was funky not 100% on it

Had a really nice meal here on Tuesday evening, Gammon with jacket potato eggs and grilled tomato.....hubby had chips with his...all freshly cooked and very tasty and enjoyable.....

Had tons of items out of stock (no steak, no salads, no fish, no onion rings - and this was just from what we tried to order), manager looked miserable and had 0 customer service skills. Bread didn’t come with butter.

Nice place to pop for a quick pint staff are nice and fairly quick service too not a bad size beer garden either

The priory has friendly staff and good food for the price, I go to the games night which is always a great time

Very nice, well sized pub with an extensive food menu with good quality reasonably priced food, the bar staff at the priory are always polite and attentive and are always happy to help, the beer is always cool, poured properly and enjoyable and an added bonus they allow dogs in which as a dog lover makes the stay there all the more enjoyable.

Good atmosphere and friendly staff, highly recommended

Get ingored by staff when stood for ages at bar and food was passable. Gave it another go and this time was being ignored by 2 male staff yet again, of which one was the (Manager) only to be told very rudely and abruptly by the so called Manager, that they don't serve this side which is where the real ale pumps are. No signs up to say that they don't serve that side by the way. Head office immediately contacted. We will never return. I would given it a minus one star if I had the choice.

First time there. Food was good and not bad price. Staff very nice. Checked to see if food ok and if we needed anything. Will return.
