The Golden Fleece in South Kesteven

Beware they don't accept SCOTTISH MONEY Although it's legal tender in the UK As scotland is part of the uk very disappointed

Very friendly & helpful staff. Most of the food is made on the premises. We had a cheese mushroom quiche & a lasagne, both meals were excellent value, well presented & delicious. We would certainly go back again, if we were in the area.

We called for a drink on Sunday evening around 7pm. We had passed this place earlier, looked busy and the food reviews were great. The bar was quiet, no problem, we ordered a drink from the rather unfriendly bar man and sat down. He then proceeded to stand at the bar and play videos/ watch something on his phone so loudly that we couldn’t chat. I suppose it made up for the fact there was no background music and no atmosphere. It’s not that the pub was quiet, the barman just didn’t want us there. We took our drinks and finished them outside so he could play with his phone in peace!! Such a shame for a pretty and central pub, sandwiched between two other lovely pubs. I will not return.

Came here for Sunday lunchtime meal. We were given a warm welcome. Hadn't booked. However, we were accommodated very well. Staff very friendly. Food was perfectly cooked and presented. Would recommend highly.

We popped in for food and a drink on Easter Sunday. No booking, but they accommodated us with a warm welcome! Our dog was offered water without asking, which is ideal as he doesn’t talk much. Beer wise, there was a nice selection of real ales. I had Sunchaser ( ironically it had rained nearly non stop). Ellie had Inches cider. Food was served quickly, considering it was cooked fresh. I had Gammon, Egg & chips. The wife had hunters chicken. Both were delicious! Lovely traditional English pub too!

Excellent Sunday lunch - just like Mother used to make! We're on a visit to the UK from our home in Spain and there were two things on our food bucket list - a good Sunday lunch and good Fish and Chips. This has certainly ticked the Sunday lunch box! Really good sized portions of home cooked food, well cooked and well served. Don't think we will be able to find better! Thoroughly recommend the Golden Fleece but you need to book.

Visited today for lunch with my husband,I ordered a Cheese and Bacon Panini my husband ordered a Bacon Cheese Burger,the waitress told me it doesn't look like a Panini but it is one,it hasn't got the lines on it,okay no problem I said,it came with crisps and a small salad,it was a small Bagette cut in half,not even toasted,the Cheese wasn't melted and the Bacon was full of fat,the crisps were hard,I had to pull the fat off the Bacon to eat it and left it all on the plate,my husbands Burger had the same Bacon in it,full of fat,he picked his Burger up to eat it and greese from the Burger ran out.Went to pay and wasn't asked how was your meal,I think she knew by the amount I left.

Visited for lunch. Lovely friendly staff. The food was cooked to perfection. Highly recommended. I had sausage and mash, while my partner enjoyed the soup of the day.

We checked TripAdvisor and Google looking for a place to have lunch in Stamford on the way back from a long weekend in Hunstanton. There were dozens and frankly to many to choose from. So we settled for looking around and picking somewhere when we...

Visited the delightful town of Stamford and decided to have lunch in The Golden Fleece. What a good decision it was, good proper pub food served by very friendly staff, even brought more gravy without asking. Very impressed and look forward to returning.

Sat outside on one of the hottest days in the year - menu was simple - my wife enjoyed the ploughmans and my lasagne was ok - deserts were good. But it was the staff who made it fun - two lovely ladies.

What a lovely pub, such welcoming and friendly staff. We stopped here on our way to watch the football. The sea bass in lemon sauce was amazing. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. So many places over cook their veg but not here. My husband...

I visited this pub out the blue for a quick drink with my wife. we was greeted with a friendly smile and the lady behind the bar couldn't have been any nicer. we took our drinks and sat on a empty table opposite a elderly...

Loads of space but didnt let a loyal customer in. Staff are crude frequently dont know which way is up. Moments of brilliance though

Disappointed by the food and service. We waited half an hour for 3 simple panini's, that weren't even toasted!!! And for the bbq chicken salad (meant to be a special dish) it was far from that. The chicken was unidentifiable and didn't resemble chicken whatsoever....

Both my wife and I had liver and bacon - our first for 3 years - and it fulfilled all expectations, plentiful, tasty and good value. The staff were most helpful and coped with the Covid restrictions in a most efficient was. I am a...

My self and a colleague visited this pub on Saturday, as it looked quite and the was plenty of seats available, only to be told by the landlord that " We've filled our quota" no apologies, how rude is that.......avoid at all costs...

This is a proper no frills pub right in the heart of Stamford serving all drinks and good food. I tried the real ale ( Tiger ? ) and it was well kept and very good and a little to easy to drink. We didn’t...

Fantastic and friendly service that makes the pub experience a real pleasure. The tiger is incredibly enjoyable. Definitely going to come back to enjoy this once restrictions are lifted as this is a pub done right.

The Golden Fleece holds an enviable position in Stamford’s town centre. The three of us approached the pub front today for an outdoor table, for lunch. The waiter who dealt with us, a young man, was useless, no cheery welcome, and no menus or drinks...

Excellent sunday dinner , variety of quality affordable meal options and friendly staff . Highly recomend !

Very good lunch and service and good delivery time and enjoyed all the food and pudding thanks. Will be ordering again

Just had take away beer and ploughman’s lunch excellent service and value, great to see someone taking the initiative in these lockdown times, just 100m from the The river banks so lots of space to enjoy food and drink in the open, well done that...

Cute pub, great locals who are ready to visit! We had a blast visiting with two guys and all the other locals who popped by to greet us. They have a live band every Friday starting at 6 pm.

We really enjoyed this pub. Everyone was friendly and the food was very good. Very accessible to close by short term parking and pedestrian walk. I would go back.

Had a fab meal came back later what the hell at twenty o nine at nite is a bloody 4 year old doing in the pub

My husband and I called in here for lunch for the first time. The food, service and price were excellent. Unfortunately, the large waiter in shorts was the worst-smelling person I have ever come across. I have no idea when he last had a shower...

Popped in for a drink while staying the weekend in Stamford. Was hoping to catch the live band playing that evening, but soon became apparent that it’s for the locals not “out of town guests” Really weird atmosphere, very clicky felt like a fight could...

Wir waren zur Mittagszeit in Stamford und hatten Hunger. Da es schon nach 14:00 Uhr war, hatten viele Restaurants schon...

Found this pub by pure chance, during a 2 hour coach visit to Stamford. We fancied a nice pub lunch and were not disappointed with our cottage pies and vegetables. Tasty, hot and filling. Just what we needed. Great service. Would highly recommend.

Called in on a wet and cold day, ordered the cottage pie with vegetables and boy what a treat, served in it's own bowl with vegies on the side an ideal feed for a cold day. Service was excellent and fast and very friendly

In the sheepmarket you can not miss this old pub. A great place to sit outside and enjoy a quiet drink. They have a outside seating area but this gets removed early in the evening due to their licence. There are plenty of seats inside...

Easter Sunday family lunch. The roast dinners were amazing. Home cooked, fresh vegetables, home made Yorkshire pudding, tender lamb. Very good value for money. Lovely atmosphere and great service too. Would highly recommend. Thank you Golden Fleece team we had a great meal with you.

Went to the Golden Fleece today in a small coach party, about 7 of us went to the Golden Fleece for a meal and a drink, although we had not booked a member of staff quickly sorted us out a table, took our orders for...

Pleasant staff, good prices, lovely home cooked meals. Just an ordinary pub but would recommend for a nice lunch.

After a visit to the market, we looked for somewhere to have lunch. Spoilt for choice! Looking at the menu outside, we decided to try the tapas and very nice they were too. We chose the 8 portions offered, and together with a beer for...

We popped in on the off chance and got a table. The menu was really good. We had roast pork Sunday lunch with awesome crackling. And lamb shanks, which was extremely reasonably priced at 8.95. The food was well cooked, perfect veg included cabbage, broccoli,...

Dropped in for a pint on a Saturday evening. Beer choice was OK and we got a seat. Football was on. Few regulars in. Would return as was fine for what we wanted.

Visited on a Friday for lunch and was very pleased. Good selection of food on the menu even though we all had the turkey roast special which was excellent with all the trimmings and a great portion. Very reasonably priced especially for Stamford with friendly...

A group of six of us had lunch last Sunday. Typical English pub on a little square in this lovely town. They were busy but made us feel welcome and had room for us. Good selection of food if a little lacking in the healthy...

We found ourselves on a flying visit to Stamford and whilst out and about dropped in The Golden Fleece for a quick drink... The bar offers a great selection of ales and friendly service... As the weather was nice, we sat outside the front of...

Stopped here for lunch and loved it. Pleasant staff, great, hot and tasty food and a good choice of menu. Will certainly visit again

A mate was late in collecting me from the train station in Stamford and as I was walking into “town” from the station. I happened upon the Fleece. Not knowing my bearings, the staff were helpful, accommodating, service with a smile and an excellent range...

Visiting stamford during the Heatwave,my friend started to feel unwell so we stopped in here for a cold drink, as wasn't too far from where we were parked. Struggled to get to the Bar due to regulars crowding it having a chat.Fair enough but I...

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch here. The food was all cooked well. We had the beef and it was tasty. Plenty on the plate and very reasonably priced. It’s a traditional looking pub which is nice as you don’t see many now days. One...

My wife and I called in during a day trip to Stamford. There was an outdoor seating area to the front of the building, which proved popular. A good selection of beverages was available, including landlord's specials. At the time of our visit 3.30pm approx,...

Friendly service, freshly prepared food, but a really old tired looking public house, nothing to make you want to go back. The staff were friendly food and drink was fine.

We stopped for lunch with our dogs while on holiday and found the food good and staff very welcoming. Would definitely return again.

We visited this pub for Sunday lunch over the last bank holiday in May 2018. It was a boiling hot day and as we also had our dog with us we sat outside. Managed to park just along the road (a gentleman outside offered to...

1st pub on a little crawl. A nice pub in a great location, good place to watch life go by. Had a nice pint of Tubby, served by a tubby(sorry big fella). Definitely be back to this pub.

This is a small traditional pub complete with local drinkers. We popped in for a snack whilst in Stamford, from the outside menu it offered the normal basic pub grub, even when inside the menu said the same, as a result of this we only...

Called into Stamford on the way home food was served quickly it was hot and tasty would've liked more veg it we all enjoyed our meal.

Visited for my pre birthday celebrations.. went to get a drink from the bar. Woman wasn’t very friendly and I felt very uncomfortable and insulated. Another woman thought it was a joke to say “have you ID them young kids over there” I wasn’t happy...

We went for Christmas lunch as a party of 7 and I cannot fault anything. The food was excellent, proper home cooked with all the trimmings. The staff were friendly and service was spot on. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and will be coming...

Went here with a group of six and could not fault it excellent service and food and a great time had by all..thank you we will certainly be returning

Hadn't meant to have lunch here but it was raining & the Pub was just across the road.A pleasant surprise awaited. The food was good & reasonably priced, the beer was good, the locals were all friendly & we had a very pleasant hour. Would...

Went to the Golden Fleece on Friday night to see a local band who were playing there. First pint tasted of line cleaner, the one that I swapped it for was off - 3rd time lucky - got me a drinkable pint of Tiger. There...

Just called into Stamford for lunch on our way up the A1 and managed to park near the Fleece so gave it a try. One ot the dishes on the blackboard menu was cheese and onion quiche which was absolutely delicious. It was obviously homemade...

Relación - precio - calidad - buena Bien situado Servicio bueno y rápido Baños limpios Carta y especialidades

Friendly pub for locals in the centre of town with outside seating. It's closest to the Wetherspoons and The London Inn.

We are staying in Stamford tonight but thought we'd just call into this pub for a drink, bite to eat and sit out in the sunshine. The barman was very friendly, the pub was quite dark and dreary inside.The food was reasonably priced but completely...

Visited during a night out in Stamford. A band were playing and there was a great atmosphere. We didn't eat there, but had a fun night

We had a Sunday Roast which was lovely with a good selection of veg. The Pub was nice and friendly with polite staff. Very good value and would certainly recommend to friends and family.

Another trip down memory lane visiting old haunts from the 1970's when we stopped in Stamford during the Burghley Horse Trials

Popped in for a quick drink on Saturday, Sport on so didn't stay for more than one as there was too many of us and didn't want to spoil the atmosphere

Great atmosphere, superb selection of beers and live music on a Saturday, brilliant. We were about thirty strong all of whom had a great time - I've been coming here thirty five plus years and have always enjoyed myself - highly recommended.

It was nice to just get an ordinary homemade sandwich and a pint, without too many airs and graces. We had fish fingers sandwich and chicken sandwich with chips. (£3 to £4 each) the ales are lovely and a good range to choose from. Nice...

We visited yesterday was lovely food was great atmosphere staff was lovely really enjoyed my meal definitely be visiting again plenty of choice it's one of the few pubs that my dad likes to eat at as well👍🏻

We had lunch in the Golden Fleece today. The food was very poor, the meat pie was the worst I have ever had. The pastry was just soft dough and the carrots dried up. Their website is not up to date, stating the wrong eating...

Saturday lunch 1pm ... BEEF stew and dumplingS Sounds nice looks nice my partnera was fine lota of beef although very small cubes of less than 1cm, 2 dumplings 3 boiled acoops cabbage v.nice... Mine, half a dumpling less than 2 tiny pices of beef...

This is the pub I visit on Friday nights, when they have live bands on. The staff are good at what they do and are sociable. The beer (Everards) is well kept and served. They do good pub food at lunchtimes, at reasonable prices. It...

On a coach trip to this lovely market town we were looking for somewhere to have lunch and came across this nice little pub. We found a table and the girl took our order even the drinks were bought to our table. We were spoilt...

Yesterday whilst investigating Stamford, my wife and I stopped for a drink at the Golden Fleece. It's a nice friendly local , which when it's sunny like yesterday afternoon, is a great place to sit outside and watch the world pass by.

Out an about with friends recently, we called into Stamford to pick a few bits up on the main street, but having parked near the meadows you have to walk past The Golden Fleece to get to the shops... It just started to rain, so...

Last call before railway station. Decent pub, but nothing fantastic and no match for pubs like the Tobie Norris or Melbourn Bros. Everards beer is fine. Ok for a quick pint. Barman was friendly. Not really my cosy sort of pub.

Bit run down but great bands toilets need cleaning on a hourly basis ... but nevertheless a great atmosphere and enjoyed by all

Old fashioned english drinker.O K for cheap no frills lunch and a pint. Not to much on the menu. Service with a smile,quickish service.

The Golden Fleece is in the centre of Stamford a lovely oldie world pub they do meals there and on Friday and Saturday nights they have live bands on last night 13/8/16 was Halo they got the place rocking overall it's a must place to...

I occasionally use this pub when out on the town with friends at the weekend. It is a convenient location to meet up, and the environment is friendly but is a bit "spit and sawdust"

Not a place to go if you want a nice evening out with friends unless you like karaoke, overweight women with tattoos drinking pints and a fight outside...

Had a walk through the streets of Stamford today, looked at many places to eat and drink and they were quite pricey. Hubby and I kept walking around when we found the golden fleece. Seemed ok from the outside and the menu was very reasonable....

they have a nice menu with a specials board my husband really enjoys the liver and bacon but all the food is good

We visited Stamford on Friday 29th April with National Holidays, it was one of the day trips with National starting from Coventry Hill Hotel in Coventry and visiting Leamington Spa, Midsomer villages, Lichfield and of course Stamford. It was a tiring 4 days but very...

Whilst in Stamford yesterday with my wife we stopped off at the Golden Fleece for a drink before returning home. The prices are reasonable and the bar staff very friendly.

These days i tend to avoid this place like the plague unless absolutely necessary. Usually have to wait ages while the staff chat to their mates and never enough tables.

We felt very unwelcome in this pub. Looked to be more of a drinkers pub (Barman in a Man Utd football shirt) than the bar / restaurant it claims to be

We was out exploring the beautiful town of Stamford and we came across this fantastic pub. Me and my partner decided to pop in for a drink and grab a bite of food. We both ordered a sandwich I went for the BLT which was...

This was a coach stop for us while travelling to Market Bosworth, a break for a drink & a snack. While not the largest pub in town it seemed to be one of the friendliest. A good selection of cask & local beers & a...

Lovely warm welcome great beer too!!!! Extensive menu looked really good although we didn't eat on this visit.

We dropped into The Golden Fleece whilst visiting Stamford on Saturday. We were a pretty large group (12 inc 3 children) but were warmly welcomed and seated together across a few tables. The service was friendly and efficient and the food was great. Good visibility...

In an age when many pubs are faceless, anonymous emporiums, it is refreshing to see a town centre establishment that retains a "locals" feel. Competitively priced, welcoming and centrally located.

lovelyplace to have a drink sit outside or inside reasonable prices same as other pubs staff lovely enjoyed visit here

This pub has recently changed hands and is family run,with several of the favourite staff still giving excellent service.this is a proper pub near the bus station which provides home cooked food , breakfast 9am-12 , lunch 12pm- 5pm.lunch has a good varied menu, most...

although a bit of a locals pub and a bit on the small side, it is very welcoming and providing the right chef is working the food is wholesome tasty and cheap.

A good friendly pub with attentive staff and a reasonably priced food menu. Beer is fine. Makes a good alternative to Stamford's usual pricey restaurants.

Staff were too laid back and food crap,I loved the pub twenty years ago,now,just sell beer or sandwiches.

Sat outside the Golden Fleece for a couple of hours on a Saturday afternoon, watching the world go by. They had a couple of guest ales (Tiger and Xingu I believe) and both were lovely. Obviously well looked after pumps! We were going to eat...

Driving back from London we wanted a lunch break, but not at a service area. We had visited Stamford previously and thought this ideal as it was very close to the A1. Parking was very good, on walking a short distance we dropped on the...

Met up with family for a mid week lunch, really good pub style food, made to order. There is no children's menu, but the staff were very good at adapting something off the menu to feed our two boys. Steak and ale pie very good,...

Visited at lunchtime for a quick pint and a sandwich. Tuna mayo on brown excellent and Tiger Bitter well kept and very welcome on a hot day! What more can you ask.
