The Mailbox in Lincoln

One of the best bottomless brunches we have been too Excellent food , really good service No waiting for your next drink and a brilliant selection of drinks available and good choices

Rachel was absolutely incredible, was swiftly getting dirty glasses off our table and was such a friendly, kindhearted and lovely person.

What has happened to this once vibrant pub?

Good service, good beer, great beer garden and a great loyalty pointos scheme..👍🍻. Edit 30/6: Still great service. Edit 9/24: Yep, still great service and a good range of drinks.

Went for an afternoon bottomless brunch, service was quick and no complaints over the food. Pub was clean and tidy too and staff very polite. Looking forward to my next one!

Ordered food for delivery this evening, missing fries, doughballs and a beer I paid for Called up, spoke to bar staff then manager. They told me to take it up with deliveroo, who i said won't resolve. Manager told me to f*ck off then hung up when I swore back. I will be visiting the store next week, let's see him swear at my face.

Great atmosphere, here for bottomless brunch, service was amazing by Ruby, definitely deserves a bonus!

Lovely decor, good food and drinks. Met a few merry people on our visit, but that's to be expected when there's a bottomless happy hour available! 😂

To be honest we did have few problems in terms of staff they were a bit rude and pool tables are a bit tight to play on in terms of the wall and it is a bit pricey I do prefer the William Forster one good thing tho was the tables were nice and clean for us and the chicken wings were great.

George was absolutely amazing and so attentive. 100% recommend. Good and drink was spot on.

Nice place, drinks a little over priced.

Visited for bottomless brunch. Was 4 of us. 3 of us really liked the food, the other who had bbq pizza, did not enjoy the pizza as was way too much bbq sauce. Drinks were varied and good. Service reasonably good and friendly. Was a decent bottomless brunch and nice venue - would be good for live football as screens everywhere.

Customer service was amazing, the staff were amazing. Loved the food. We had bottomless brunch and got served by George and he was lovely and very welcoming. Will definitely come again.

Fantastic place. Have been several times to watch sport and it never disappoints. All staff provide a excellent service.

As soon as we arrived we were greeted by Amelia. She was incredible! We were here for bottomless brunch and she smashed it! Constantly making sure our food was ok and our drinks were full. Excelled my expectations in many ways and she made the experience.

Nipped in for lunch with my wife, staff very friendly and helpful. Showed us about downloading the app for a free drink. Ordered the spicy pizza which was perfect. The lily's mango cider is top notch. Will definitely be back soon

The mailbox is always great if it’s a game day or just for a drinks in town. Love the food and the outdoor seating area. Dogs can be taken in the outdoor seating area. TV screens are big and can be seen from all around. Always a must when we are going for drinks in town.

Great place for everyone, nice food, good beers, live sports with TV outside as well, excellent

Me and three friends went here for bottomless brunch this Saturday. The service was really friendly and welcoming. There was a great selection of food and drinks for a bottomless brunch. The drinks were free flowing and we definitely got our monies worth. The cocktails were very tasty and they did not skimp on the alcohol. Everyone’s food was tasty, one minor quibble was a non runny egg on a breakfast, other than that we couldn’t fault it. I’ve always rated this bar, the atmosphere and vibes are great. Felt compelled to review though as the bottomless brunch was so fab and defo good value at £35 pp. I’ve heard it the best brunch in Lincoln and wouldn’t disagree with that.

Food was yummy, the loaded chips 🍟 spot on service was great if I have got a slight moan too many televisions on

We love Dan the man, best waiter we’ve ever had. Food was beaut, drinks were better. 10/10 would come again because of Dan the man only xx

Popped in for a birthday lunch with a friend food was good and service quick not too busy

Brilliant bottomless Brunch. Food was great. Staff were fabulous . Plenty of drinks flowing . Will be returning

Lovely place with a nice rear area but over £5 for a pint of low grade lager is taking the pi$$.

Lovely pub great staff but way expensive..

Bought 2 bagels from across the road, came in bought a pint, gin lemonade and some chips, to be told halfway through eating the bagel we cannot eat it in here🤣 Spent more here than the bagels! Bagels 10/10

Had a really good time when visiting the mailbox - they certainly know how to deliver !! Beer was good, food varied, with good feedback from all my mates. Give it a try!

Great Bar and food! Been several times, will return

Not a bad place reasonable prices ,very busy tried to order food but app was playing up so didn't bother

came to mailbox for a bottomless brunch, all staff were great however maddie in particular was friendly, helpful&welcoming. great experience.

My brother always tries to buy me food here when i visit and today we finally made it for lunch. Clean, friendly and helpful, we had a lovely meal. The staff were very helpful when we’d made an error in ordering and rectified the situation swiftly and painlessly. We will be back!

Food and service at first was brilliant.. swap shifts how rude can you be 20 mins waiting for a drink to then be told give them a minute sat flirting at bar rude and unprofessional one bar staff let the hole team down

Perfect service and food, definitely attentive to our needs. If you have anytime free make a booking ASAP l. We loved the drinks they gave much better than anywhere we have been at before, thank you.

Great service very accommodating busy Saturday and found us a table for us and our 2 year old, Good selection of beers, great food good prices also has a rewards app you can use called mixer, good place for football and does bottomless brunch which seems a great deal

Amazing atmosphere a lot of tables pre booked, manager Maddie very accmadating for us with our 2 year old son got us sat down nice and quick and a high chair, food was amazing good selection of beers child meal was a bargain and great portion size

Top quality sports venue, the service was the whole team was exceptional too

Loud lively City Centre pub that serves superb food. Loads of drink choices. Staff have time to have a little bit of banter during the day which is great.

Went to the bull inn for a evening meal we had steak and chips the food was cooked to perfection and Ken was a really nice chap who served us was polite and even asked if we wanted a doggy bag to take home the food we didn't eat as there was so much

I took my mum here yesterday for bottomless brunch, absolutely amazing service from beth, never with a empty drink , always checking on us , half way down our drinks she would come and get a order for the next one. Food was amazing alot of it aswell. Would definitely come again . It was our first time doing bottomless brunch and she was amazing explaining everything to us very nice, chatty and polite so Thankyou beth

Me and my girlfriend had a brillaint experience at the mailbox today the service was amazing special mention to maddie and george, so attentive and gave us such an amazing bottomless brunch, would recommend.

I was here for bottomless brunch last night and the service from Connor was incredible. Thank you for making our experience the best! The drinks are great and food was nice! Definitely worth the price of a bottomless brunch. We will be back!

Very friendly staff, extremely prompt service. On the more expensive side but the care to attention by the staff was great

My sister and I did the bottomless brunch and could not have had a better time. The food was lovely and the service was amazing. Everyone checked in every 10-15 minutes to make sure our food was OK and that we had enough drinks, and honestly I don't think I'd do a bottomless brunch anywhere else.

Used to go here quite regularly but since I got charged £5.for a pint if ale they have priced themselves out if my the comfort zone if my wallet into luxury level. Haven't been back since September 2023. Hope it's still dog friendly though.

Bottomless brunch for 15 people. Service absolutely superb, food very good. Excellent value

Good place to watch sports but 2 flights of stairs to get to the toilets☹️ dynamic pricing on drinks too, which means if there's sport on that gets the crowds in the prices increase!

Great atmosphere and lots of screens to watch the sports on. Prioritises football over rugby which can be a tad annoying when it's a big rugby game and they are screening a piddly football game. Also the drinks are pretty spenny, basically London prices!

Great food, great drinks staff are friendly too

Ordered a burger and chips. The chips had more flavor than the burger did. Probably won't return.

Connor and Bath looked after us so well - glasses were never empty!

Lively pub. Lots of screens for watching sport. Food good

Very expensive for drinks but food was good and well priced we had gluten free burgers and gluten free menu is good

Great experience for bottomless brunch on New Years Eve, Maddy was a great host and was constantly checking on us for drinks etc Thank you!

We just went for a drink and dancing... It was great!!!

My favourite place for a bottomless brunch Great food and free flowing cocktails

Connor was a great host, kept the drinks flowing, brilliant bottomless brunch

Very busy Friday night but very quick and friendly service at the bar. Good atmosphere in the pub just stopped for a drink.

Good for watching football. A few screens to see a football match. It's mainly for younger people, louder music, so harder to talk. It's has good choice of beers and traditional glass for the ale drink I had.

Went for a bottomless brunch and the service was great! Connor and Beth were great! Highly recommend!

Part of a good night out went in on a Friday and had a good time friendly and a good atmosphere 👌.

A nice place to hang out with friends and your loved ones. Food and beverages can be saved whilst you enjoy watching sport on the big TV screens.

Connor was our host! He is a credit to the mail box! Connor Went above & beyond to ensure our experience was enjoyable. Thanks Connor!

Discriminatory and rude bar staff. Terrible service especially from the horrible lady on bar on 4th November. When I informed her that her behaviour was extremely rude, she laughed in our faces. Won’t be returning.

Good pub,good atmosphere and great to watch football in

Tasha was amazing! Very attentive and lovely all over defiantly come here for a bottomless brunch!!

Conor was an amazing host! Would recommend to anyone

Typical sport bar/pub. Loud, so don't go expecting to be able to have a chat easily. The lady who served us was great, very helpful and informative. The food was good but perhaps a bit expensive for what it was. We had to ask for the basil that should have been on the pizzas. It was given without any issue. I was though very disappointed with the lack of mocktails and soft drink options.

Good food and alot of it, great location and reasonable prices.

One of the best places to go out at night in Lincoln. Connor is a outstanding member of staff as well as everyone else who served us

Really nice venue, great atmosphere and good selection of drinks.

Nice to have a pool table in a place, though so pokey the cues tend to hit the walls or someone in the booths at the side. Mind you, at the prices you won't be playing many frames anyway, so I guess that's one way to keep the wait time for a table down. Downloaded the app to order food and drinks. Went through all the hoops, bells and whistles to get an order done and pay yet nothing came - it had failed to process in the end. Friends I was with that did get something were ill the next day, so I may have had a lucky escape in the end. Unlikely I'll be returning to this one as it does not have the charisma to warrant a second visit.

We booked a table to watch the Ireland v Scotland rugby world cup game that had an 8pm kick off on a Saturday night. We did worry about how they would balance the showing of live sport against their regular Saturday night schedule. In hindsight, we should have realised they wont and just stayed at home. Despite the website being explict that they were taking RWC specific bookings, there was no effort made to ensure that the game was enjoyable or even watchable. We were stuck in a corner, with an obsecured view, so we couldn't see the screen properly or the score or gameclock and had to contend with people and barstaff constantly blocking ourview. The commentary was also drowned out by the DJ. There were 3 tables between us and the screen who were not there for the game. The space was there to have arranged a different set up, if appropriately planned by the staff in advance. We asked a staff member about moving. He said he would check then ignored us. Knowing we had pre booked for the game, we were given a table in the corner furthest from the screen and speakers, blocked by 3 tables who were closer to the screen yet not there for the game Despite advertising bookings for the games, to say the effort put in to ensuring they were watchable was tokenistic, would be a generous exaggeration, at best. If your priority is your regular Saturday night schedule that is understandable. I get that the rugby was not the priority for many. Then don't pretend otherwise and to do so is simply dishonest. To those who might respond, "its Saturday night, what did you expect?" I simply expect the thing I booked to do, to be provided to a good standard. Mailbox had no interest in doing so. They should have simply not taken bookings for the later games as it is clear they are unable or unwilling to balance the competing needs. If you want to see a game with a later kick off, I wouldn't come here. I certainly won't be back for any more games, early or late.

Booked a table to watch rugby, all screens showing football. A huge inconvenience to them to change channel.

Connor was amazing during our bottomless super! Never let us be without drinks and was super friendly throughout our time! 100% recommend for bottomless brunch/supper!

We did the bottomless supper and had Connor as our host. The food was great but above that was the service by Connor. He was helpful and super friendly (even though his team Liverpool lost - sorry Connor! We tried to cheer them on!). Even though the bar was packed with people watching the footie he was super attentive and we definitely got our moneys worth! He was fab and hopefully next time we come he's working!

Connor was the greatest server ever. Kept us topped up and made it worth every penny

Fabulous host always kept us n drinks very happy with our experience thanks maddie

A very interesting bar great cocktails staff friendly. Give it a try I'm sure you'll love it there

Love this place amazing atmosphere

Didn't eat here but drank here , very friendly staff and super helpful, pls visit

The food and service is quite typical of a busy Lincoln pub, however with good deals and lively decor this pub is nice to be in. Clean, open, and full of music and people enjoying themselves, it's a nice place to visit for a laugh at your local. It's also great for sport coverage, and is calm enough around early afternoon that you could even sit in to get some work done. It's very large so at most times there's always a busy area and an intimate one to suit your experience. Overall about 3.8 out of 5 as its a nice quality pub.

Amazing chicken wings, some of the best in the city.

Seemed really cool. Menu was a tad expensive though.

Tom, oh my, what a doorman, unreal job, tom made me feel safe

Bottomless brunch with friends and had a great time! Staff were so friendly and attentive, food was tasty, great vibe and it was clean throughout. So pleased we went as recommended by someone else - I can see why they were. Catered easily for one person with celiac and plenty of veggie options.

Amazing bottomless brunch! Food was lovely and service was so prefect! We were looked after by Tasha who is a credit to the team at mailbox and really made our experience special.

Had a bottomless brunch which was the first time we had been and it was the best but tasha really made the whole experience was making sure we always had drinks and even when there was some unwanted people at our table making sure we was ok and any time we needed help or anything she was there. Would recommend the brunch but also tasha being your waitress!

Me and friends came for bottomless brunch and TASHA was the best. She was so nice and lovely! She’s an asset to the team here! Thank you so much 😊

Bottomless supper, Connor + Becca were amazing

Had such a lovely bottomless brunch today! Thank you Tasha for being a great server and so sweet! :)

Thank you so much to Tasha for great service during our bottomless brunch, we had a lovely time :)

GEORGE WAS AMAZING!!!!! We went for brunch, we had a great time, George the server was lovely, talked about lego which is amazing, food and serves was great and vegan options are amazing which is why we went for mailbox and the fact that the vegan food tasted so good made me happy, deffo want to go for bottomless

Pub food at it's worst, we ordered 3 pints of moretti and they came out totally flat and for a price of £17! Absolutely disgusting food worst pizza I've ever had and to top it off at London prices for the food and drinks ! Never again i downloaded the app app to order and i will delete it before I leave this dump,

Amazing service and fab cocktails

Good food. The beer garden is one of the best I've seen

Came for lunch with a friend. . The pub has had a bit of a refurb and the food prices certainly reflect this. We both had the rainbow sub at £8.75, one with halloumi, and a vegan version which substituted the halloumi for a sprinkling of grated cheese ( hopefully vegan ) the bread was vile, tasted like bread that's part baked and had not been finished. You do get a drink at a good price with the lunch sub / wrap. Music was very loud for that time of day and an empty pub. Garden area lovely. Can I suggest that it is clear on the menu that you are not offering a vegan halloumi substitute, or offer the sub as just a salad sandwich at a lesser price.

Popped in here for a drink, and ended up doing the drag bingo, it was so much fun and vicky was amazing giving great service all night, we will definitely make this a regular!

Visited with a group of mates and end up staying for the drag bingo, what an absolute belter! Great atmosphere and excellent service. Its a must if in the area especially on a Tuesday,Selime the DJ/bingo caller was class and made the night.
