The Dining Room at Washingborough Hall Country Hotel in North Kesteven

When celebrating our 24 year anniversary there was only one place as special as the event itself, Washingborough Hall. There are simply not enough words to describe the outstanding quality of the service from booking, greeting and throughout the entire meal. The ambience of the dining room is exquisite, refined yet warm and welcoming.. truly special, surpassed only by the phenomenal food. Head Chef Mark Cheseldine continues to excel with every dish.. we chose the scotch egg from the specials starters menu, beef Wellington and finished with the amaretto & lemon pear frangipane. Every dish was simply stunning and mouthwatering! My only regret is that I didn’t take any photos so you could all see just how impressive the food is. This is our favourite restaurant absolutely every time we come, it surpasses itself and we say again that it was the best meal we ever had. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. Thanks again Mark and team, see you again in 3 weeks when we are booked in again with our friends.

As guests at the hotel we were treated to a delicious dinner with very acceptably priced good wine. The staff were brilliant and so friendly. The Full English breakfast was if not the best I have ever had certainly up there.

Myself and my partner visited for my belated birthday meal and I have to say it was excellent, the food and service where impeccable for the price and the setting is just beautiful, we will be returning soon

Superb food and service in a fantastic setting at a very reasonable price. We went to celebrate a birthday and all really enjoyed it.

The outstanding customer service started a week before our booking! I contacted the restaurant to ask if they would be able to prepare a main course dish that was not on the menu. They were so helpful! Not only was the chef able to accommodate, but also offered to prepare my favourite dish being beef Wellington. On the day of the meal, the hotel telephoned to ask if my husband would also like to have the beef Wellington as well. I’ve never known such outstanding customer service.. we felt incredibly special from the outset. The entire experience on the evening was phenomenal! The service could not have been more attentive and the dining room itself .. beautiful, just stunning. The food is the pièce de résistance .. this was without doubt the best meal I’ve ever had in a restaurant, not just locally but anywhere. I started with the ‘Parsnip & Thyme Velouté, Lardo & Warm Soda’ which was absolutely delicious. Then came the main, the beef Wellington with truffle mash and jus which was just stunning. The presentation was a work of art, and the taste and flavours were just divine. This is my favourite dish and I have ordered it in many restaurants around the world over the years, none have compared to Washingborough Hall. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. This is not just a meal out, this is a dining and culinary experience you will not forget.

Super food as usual at Washingborough Hall, service and quality of food really great,always made to feel welcome as per usual.

We went to Washingborourgh Hall Hotel for an afternoon tea. It was a Thank you gift. We were greeted very welcoming and shown to our table. The decor of the room was smart and classical in style. The tables were all set with cloth table cloths and linen napkins The China tea cups and tea plates were lovely and all different from each other, even the saucers and cups. It was charming. The menu was very detailed . Perhaps a bit crammed in ? We chose our loose leaf tea first, then the waitress Amelia who had been very friendly went off to get our tea. The food was as pretty as a picture. We started at the bottom tier with the small appetizers. The sandwich fingers were full with with a slight twist on the usual fillings. The trout, cress and creme fraiche was delicious. The blue cheese and walnut ones were perhaps a bit too different for my elderly father, but my mum loved them. There were a further two fillings. The small cakes and Tiny tart were a treat The scones were among the best I have had. The jam and clotted cream soon disappeared but there was plenty for all of us. We took home what we couldn't eat then. Instead of a horrible plastic tub we took them home in a eco friendly brown bag.

We stayed the 3 nights and it was great. The weather was cold though. Nice room and excellent food menu.

I had an extraordinary experience at this establishment when I visited for lunch. The head chef deserves a raise! Would definitely recommend to others! I cant wait to visit again.

I ate on the 10th March. I was welcomed by the staff as I approached the restaurant. I chose to take my table rather than sitting in the lounge beforehand. The ambience of the restaurant is lovely and unfortunately the guidance to ‘dress up’ was not followed although no one was scruffy! I wore my second choice but I would not have felt uncomfortable had I wore my ‘Posh Frock’. I would suggest diners dress up but I’m old fashioned. I had salmon starter and it was light and delicious. Venison for mains was cooked to perfection and the pasta was an unusual touch but worked. The separate root vegetables were lovely but one jumped onto the table so sorry for the mess. Cheesecake for pudding was again light and a touch of rhubarb added to the texture. I ordered a white wine for starter and a Merlot for the venison, alas the merlot didn’t arrive but the young waiter who took the order seemed new. When I reminded a young girl of the order it was quickly rectified. This did not distract to a wonderful meal. We all have to learn and I made mistakes at that age as we all do. I’ll definitely return.

A one night stay in the Church house, where we could have our small dog with us was everything we could wish for. A lovely welcoming residents bar, where very attentive staff took our order made a good start to the evening. The menu was interesting and the food superb. A highly enjoyable break.

This place never fails to impress. We took my parents & uncle with his guide dog for Sunday lunch. All of us thought the food was amazing; sirloin of beef which 3 of us had was outstanding whilst my uncle loved the blade of beef. The desserts every bit as good too. I'd also like to say how welcoming & professional the staff are. From the lady that took my booking who said how welcome the guide dog would be, to the lovely man who is always front of house, to the waiting staff they were first class. I've tried Sunday lunch at many places in the Lincoln area but I don't think there is anywhere better than Washingborough Hall.

From the afternoon tea, to the delicious dinner and breakfast, there was nothing to fault in this restaurant. They change the menu every couple of months, so the twice baked cheese souffle and the slow roasted pork may not be on when you visit. But hopefully they will make a return appearance!

Lovely atmosphere, staying again in January. Our guests enjoyed there stay. The dogs loved their stay as well.

Every so often you dine somewhere that feels rather special. W Hall is most certainly one of those places and the Christmas decorations really enhance that experience. Warm welcome and attentive service. Food is wonderful.

This is our 2nd visit to Washy Hall and on both occasions it was outstanding from start to finish, The welcome and service from the staff is truly classy and you are made to feel really special. The food was amazing and we had the...

We were stopping in the hotel but you can book a table in the restaurant. Fantastic quality food and service. Wine and food of the highest standard. We all had a very enjoyable evening.

We stayed at the hotel with the DBB (dinner included) package on a Sunday night. We dined in the elegant restaurant. Service was impeccable and not too formal. Food was excellent and they even have draft ale, if you are not keen on wine. Breakfast...

Booked for Sunday lunch to celebrate our wedding anniversary. From the telephone booking, to the settling of the (very reasonable) bill, everything was fantastic. Great staff (friendly & enthusiastic), lovely setting, with great food as well. You could not ask for anything more. Thank you.

One of the best meals out we have had. Everything was exquisite. Portion sizes were great as well so didn’t feel too full and could squeeze in desert.

Excellent meal with great staff and wine to match. All three courses were beautifully presented and very tasty

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal & breakfast during our stay. Plenty of choice - even for a vegetarian - and all well presented.

We returned for the first time in 46 years and were not disappointed. Superb meal and staff were lovely.

Food was amazing, literally best I had in long time. Staff was friendly and approachable. Atmosphere in restaurant is very nice too. Will be definitely returning back.

The dining room is very tastefully decorated. Breakfast has a wide range of choices and it’s up to you how small or big you go. Dinner menu is excellent, with several lovely choices and daily specials. The presentation and quality of food are excellent and...

Absolutely Perfect. The food was amazing and was only topped by the professional and friendly staff. We can't wait for our big day, I have no doubt Washingborough Hall Hotel will make it as special as it can possibly be. Lucy has a business model...

Delicious food with a twist - beautifully presented. Wine choices were good - something for everyone!

We ate from the A La Carte menu. The food was divine and the service excellent. We had a three year old with us and she was treated like a three year old should be! She loved it!

A visit to the marvellous Washy Hall is always a treat and afternoon tea yesterday was no exception. If you live in Lincolnshire we are very lucky to have such a well managed and well staffed Country House that we can all enjoy. The tea was sumptuous and plentiful with a traditional touch that was ideal to celebrate our anniversary.

Elegant dining room, very well spaced tables not obviously having to have made concessions to Covid: would not be surprised to hear it was always like this. Friendly, well trained efficient staff, would expect anything else? not always the case. Little things matter like the waitress who saw me look as though I might want something & shot over, again why should one appreciate that, well sometimes I think special training is given so that waiters are programmed to march from A-without distraction .The meal was excellent was excellent, interesting and well presented: I think the waitress mentioned that the chef had served at the Ritz which would not have surprised me.This restaurant and the Bronze Pig which I also reviewed put the icing on our weekend in Lincoln

First class - these guys have got it just right. Delicious food and friendly helpful staff go to any trouble to ensure a first class dining experience

We decided to book a last minute overnight stay with Evening Meal. The staff are excellent at this delightful Hotel, the food was amazing & we felt very safe with the policies which were in place.Thank you.

Eat out to Help out!We had a fantastic meal here on a Wednesday to participate in the govt scheme. It’s been great to try restaurants we haven’t tried before and we will definitely be returning to the Washingborough Hall hotel.The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful (one of us is gluten-free) and the food was absolutely delicious! We had the fish starter, steak main and chocolate dessert. I must say, the gluten free bread roll that was given to me before dinner was outstanding! Nicest one I’ve ever had and there is certainly a lot of horrid GF bread out there.Thank you for participating in the Eat Out to Help Out scheme and encouraging us to get out of the house for a meal. We feel totally safe and were thoroughly impressed by the level of service and the quality of the food.

Dinner in the dining room was excellent, it looked and tasted first class, the staff were friendly and attentive. Lovely fresh fish!

This is the best restaurant that we have eaten at. The staff, service and food are first class. Book a table and be amazed

I have said this before and I'll repeat myself. How lucky are we to have this gem in our village and so close to Lincoln for those that live there! It is perfectAfter several months of lockdown, it has now reopened and my wife and I went there for dinner last night, only its 2nd night open.Other than excellent Covid-19 precautions it is the same and as good as ever. Maybe even better as we've not been for so many months!Great surroundings, attentive staff and marvelous food. What else could you wish for?

We had booked Afternoon Tea at 12.30pm (most hotels do not commence Afternoon Tea service until much later, so to start service @ 12-noon is great) but unfortunately we were half-an-hour late, as our stupid Sat Nav continually directed us to the eastern by-pass around Lincoln, WHICH HAS NOT BEEN BUILT YET. However, the reception staff at the hotel were not in any way put out and could not have been more understanding, warm and welcoming. We were escorted to our table - YAAAY, spotless white tablecloths and linen napkins! - in a beautiful, warm room, overlooking the extensive gardens. The building itself is lovely: big enough to look 'special' but not so large as to appear impersonal or intimidating. The decor is traditional but quite light and airy and although I could possibly say that I have had a slightly better afternoon tea elsewhere, the afternoon tea was still very good and I could not gush enough about the service from all the waiters, waitress and reception staff - quite outstanding and absolutely faultless - friendly, smiling, polite without being obsequious, even better than the service at The Dorchester in Park Lane, Central London, which has always been my yardstick.Everywhere was spotlessly clean (without being clinical) and the ladies toilets were also luxurious and beautifully decorated.Overall an extraordinarily noteworthy occasion and although I am somewhat too long in the tooth to get married again and my 21st birthday is lost in the dim and distant mists of time, this is EXACTLY the venue I would choose to celebrate either or both of those events. Very highly recommended and my heartfelt thanks to all the staff for doing a fantastic job.

Had Dinner here on Friday evening, we had a drink in the bar where our order was taken, was taken to the table when the food was ready, the staff were very good and attentive, food was exceptional and the wine was good, we also stayed in the hotel for 2 nights but did not have breakfast, complements to the Chef.

We are here last night and I cannot praise it highly enough. The service was outstanding from the minute we were greeted at the door to the time we left. We had a drink in the bar before the meal and were served immediately. The waiter even brought us extra chairs as there were not enough for our party of ten. The meal itself was delicious and I would highly recommend the sticky toffee soufflé if you have room. At no time did we feel rushed and were able to enjoy our meal and relax afterwards without being hassled. The staff were attentive and helpful and even brought us extra chocolates on request! I would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning in the future .

Was recommended by a friend, Booked in 10 people for my 40th birthday. Staff gave us a table away from the rest of the diners so we could drink and enjoy the night. Food was wonderful, waited in lounge with drinks to be seated, soon as we were seated food came quickly, all orders were correct and delicious. really enjoyable night. Well worth having deserts as they were yummy.

This is the third year running we have taken our two rather fussy mums to Washingborough Hall for Xmas day and again we were not disappointed. The care and attention to detail the staff give is second to none with a special thanks to Rob and Lucy for their attention to our mums who loved it. From the canapies to the lunch and our table with white linen cloths to coffee in the lounge you cannot fault it. In fact it was so good we have already booked again for next year, well done to all the staff

We had a table of twenty. The food was served hot and was delicious. The only complaint was that my wife, who normally likes spicy food, found the soup too hot!

Great location, lovely warm ambience, excellent menu, superb service. The food is absolutely delicious. Beautifully presented and tastes amazing. We opted to dine in as we was staying in the hotel. Easier than finding another restaurant. So glad that we did. Well worth a visit. Highly recommend

Had table for 10. Food was served hot, well presented and tasted delicious. Waitresses very friendly and helpful. Food beautifully cooked too. Would return again.

I understand that the locals rate this place as somewhere for a “posh” dinner. The food is really very good: I’ve eaten 3 dinners and 4 breakfasts here in the last month and can’t fault a thing.

Interesting menu with dishes presented with style. My dietary needs were cared for when it came to the dessert course.

Our evening meal in the Dining Room was absolutely delicious, we both had 3 courses and all were amazing. The atmosphere was lovely and relaxing and the serving staff all friendly, so overall thoroughly enjoyable and great value for money.

Ourselves and 2 friends out for birthday lunch for my husbands 74th birthday today, our first visit to Washingborough.

Really nice meal and well prepared by a very competent chef. The choices were a little restricted but they made a special choice for my wife and it was perfect. Cannot fault the food experience and a good selection of wins at dinner.

Hotel is great and the food is exceptionally good. The prices compare very well with good restaurants elsewhere so well worth a visit. Special mention for the wonderful restaurant manager Rob who really makes the experience special. Go soon!!!

Having ate at michelin star establishments I can safely say this was equivalent and even topped them. They ordered halal beef in for us especially at our request with just 3 days notice. The service was especially special , very accommodating and friendly.

We have been to this fantastic Dining Room twice in 6 weeks. The first experience was sublime and we could not believe the superb level of service or the exquisite selection of edible comestibles. Top that with a wine list that offers great variety, affordability and unusual wines and you have a winning combination. Most notably though, if you like bittersweet chocolate souffles for dessert then this is the place for you. On our first visit they were the best I have ever tasted world wide (a very bold statement), the second visit proved it was not a fluke, they were just as eye poppingly good. It's a great place that makes you want to go back to relax and enjoy. On our second visit we ate in the Bar area because we took our well behaved Flat Coated Retriever Dogs. The Dogs loved it and the service and food were just as sublime. Another 5* rating which is unheard of plus its dog friendly. Utterly Superb

We had lunch at the Ritz earlier in the year, our meal here was up there with it if not better. Top marks!

I can’t recommend Washingborough Hall enough. The service and food was impeccable. We were a family of 5 with a wheelchair user and we were so well accommodated. We normally dine at the White Heart in the Bailgate for Mother’s Day and have done for years but fancied a change. Now having visited here we will definitely we back. Thank you very much

Thank you for an awesome meal and experience again tonight, the food the Service and the attention to detail Thank you so much

We had both an afternoon tea and then, the next day, a small reception here and the staff were fantastic in arranging it. The food was excellent and just the right amount, with only a small amount left over. The staff were attentive without being intrusive. I cannot recommend this place enough - thanks to all the staff.

My husband and I have been to Washingborough Hall several times,in fact we almost booked it for our daughters wedding several years ago.The dining room is formal,the tables are well spaced apart .At first the service was attentive,but a large party came in and had booked a private dining room.Thankfully we had been served with our starters and mains,but the as the dining room began to fill up service became slow and by the end stopped altogether.In fact a couple sitting near us had to ask several times where their meal was.

Visited the restaurant with the family for my father-in-laws 60th birthday. Both the hotel and the restaurant are beautiful and the food was exceptional! We will definitely be back again.

We had a fabulous evening meal with fresh vegetables, gorgeous tasting fish and steak. Which was followed by a trio of lemon infused deserts. Heavenly!

Everything we ate was delicious and although not cheap for the quality of the food it represented great value for money. Everything was obviously cooked with great skill and care. If you have the time (and calories to spare) try the scones at teatime served with lashings of cream and jam they are some of the best you will ever eat! This has to be one of the best restaurants in the area. We will be re visiting as soon as possible.

Elegant and warming setting for afternoon on Monday afternoon. Sisters and spouses we were welcomed by friendly attentive staff and were looked after very well. Lovely setting and a nice venue. Not crowded and spacious. Great choice of teas. 2 tiered cake stands with finger sandwiches, a small quiche, scones cream and jam plus 3 pieces of cake. Filling could not eat it all. Annual pilgrimage that we thoroughly enjoy especially the non rushed atmosphere.

We were a group of twenty two, and the service was very good, The food was good too, except that my duck terrine was a little dry,

Delicious meal and very good staff, back ground music could be a little louder to muffle the sound of staff walking in and out.

All the meals we had whilst staying at this hotel were of the highest standard. Great care was taking in the presentation and selection of ingredients.

¡Qué maravilloso restaurante! Desde el momento en que llegamos, todo fue perfecto: un personal amable y acogedor, un entorno cómodo y bellamente decorado. Las mesas están bien espaciadas, odio sentirme abarrotada en un restaurante. El menú era tranquilizadoramente pequeño, pero era tan difícil de elegir ya que todo era increíblemente tentador. Servicio impecable y comida fabulosa. ¿Qué más se puede pedir? Sin reservas.

Sumptuous food served within a lovely room by excellent staff Had the sea bass and crab starter which was gorgeous. The lamb rack for main which was lovely especially with a lamb tart. Pudding was heavenly would thoroughly recommend to all for a treat

Stayed a night and had evening meal in restaurant, staff very professional and the food lived up to expectations, small menu, but presented well and tasted delicious. Would definitely visit again rise were in the area.

The Dining Room Restaurant at Washingborough Hall is certainly worth a visit. Our evening started with a very relaxed drink in the lounge bar before going into a very well presented restaurant. Both food and service was second to none. Lincolnshire has a few hidden gems, one of them being Washingborough Hall. I would highly recommend a visit.

I was impressed right from the booking as I was asked about any food allergies as I booked. When we arrived they remembered what I had said and staff knew the menu well enough to be able to say that I was fine with my food choices. Every course had about 4 options and all sounded wonderful. The starter of duck was excellent. We all finished everything on our plates. The raspberry souffle made a lovely, light dessert. Staff were attentive but didn't hover round the table. This is a fantastic place for a special dinner.

We were staying overnight and booked dinner here, prior to arriving I requested boiled potatoes due to a dietary issue and this was already noted by the polite and efficient waiter Bob, who also had a good sense of humour.All 3 courses were excellent and presented in a manner that we enjoyed in Mitchelin starred establishments that we have previously dined in. I would eat here again in a heartbeat and would try the other dishes on offer.

Ate outside and enjoyed wonderful haddock and a very generous cheese board. The staff were attentive and pleasantly informal. I also thought it was brilliant value.

What a lovely experience, the selection of sandwiches was just to my taste as i am far more of a savoury person. However the initial starter was the most light Cheese and Chive soufflé, it was slight warm and totally delicious. the sandwich filling were equally lovely especially the chicken, lemon and basil mayonnaise, certainly a filling i will be using at home. I also don't drink tea or coffee so was offered an option of a glass of prosecco, who could say no! the little cakes were certainly well received by my husband who certainly does have a sweet tooth. Rhubarb baleful tarts, Passionfruit Macaroons , Chocolate and lime eclairs and a Salted Caramel Brownie. Of course there were the obligatory scones with Cream and Jam, but my only slight disappointment was that the clotted cream didn't have the usual sticky crusty edge that only clotted cream has. I must stress that this did not distract from the overall effect. The staff were so helpful and chatty and the entire experience was excellent

The afternoon tea was excellent. Only reason could not give 5* was service errors such as tea with no milk provided and had to leave table to find someone to get it. The hotel is set in lovely grounds and is somewhere I would stay and use again.

The passion of Lacy made the whole difference . It started with the warm welcoming staff the minute we parked our Morgan. Followed by the one and only Gin Tonic with orange zest and a leaf of thyme . The Ceviche of crab, the beef ,the trout , the passion fruit soufflé ... it was a symphony. We recommend it blindly , we will for sure come again and again.

Food and service excellent, see review of hotel. Lovely ambience and a great experience. All courses tasty and well presented, Thank you.

Went to this beautiful hotel for a pre booked sunday lunch and from the minute i arrived the staff were friendly always smiling willing to help and all dressed very smart. We were seated near the restaurant where we ordered drinks were given the menu to order from and then seated where upon your starters were brought out and I was not disappointed I had beetroot with goats cheese could easily have licked the plate. Mains were slow cooked beef with plenty of vegetables again so nice and seasoned well. Had the cheese board to finish. I must admit this is one of the best meals I have ever had. So compliments to the hard working chefs well done. Throughout the meal the staff made you feel special and nothing was a problem. They were all very professional and all knew what they were doing so again well done and many thanks. Cannot wait to come and visit again

Stayed for a romantic 45th wedding anniversary (ours! , yes, it can happen, with arthritic limitations).

Experienced chefs produce consistently high quality locally sourced food for lunch, dinner or special events! Plenty of local support as well as visitors.

We chose to eat in the dining room whilst staying at this hotel, rather than going in to Lincoln and we are so pleased we did for the following reasons:

Have just spent a wonderful couple of hours having lunch with family at this rather special place. The staff are attentive but not overly so, they look after you very well. The food is delicious, the portions are more than enough, the wine and drinks are superb. The Hall was beautifully decorated for the festive season.I would recommend this hotel very highly. It is worth it just for the relaxing atmosphere.

Family get together at New Year, comfortable surroundings, friendly and helpful service, lovely food. We were the last table in for lunch but absolutely did not feel rushed to leave. Would we go again, absolutely we would.

The wedding breakfast was exceptional. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious. Then - next morning - a robust and restorative full English breakfast for the bleary-eyed wedding guests. It was all deeply impressive.

There were 23 of us but the food was served quickly and was delicious. The staff coped very well and provided an enjoyable occasion for all.

Stayed in Lincoln but ventured out here for dinner and it was worth the trip. Had a wonderful meal. Service was excellent. I would highly recommend a meal here.

We had a company dinner the choice was wonderful and they accommodated people with food allergies, vegans and vegetarians without hesitation. All the food was of a very high standard and the service was excellent

My wife and i were visiting friends in Washingborough and went here for a meal. The place brought back fantastic memories as we were married here in 2000, the last visit there was 2005, the place was lovely then but it is better now, a fantastic upgrade.

We celebrated a family birthday here and had a wonderful time. Gorgeous interior, beautifully decorated with a roaring fire! Very welcoming and helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble. The food was absolutely delicious and the service in the dining room was fantastic. Would highly recommend for special occasions.

We both had- the fillet steak, which was very nicely cooked and served with potato dauphinoise, cauliflower purée and roast vegetables-chocolate and raspberry fondant served with salted caramel ice creamWe really enjoyed the food and the service was very warm and friendly. The dining room itself is very pleasant. Two courses, water and a bottle of malbec cane to about £80, which we thought was very reasonable.
