The Plough in North Kesteven

A small village pub good range of drinks, food 12 til 2.30 (not eves) good menu and very tasty. Live music once a month plus bingo and a visual quiz once a month. Staff and customers are very welcoming .

Been twice for Sunday lunch first class food and great service.

Unfortunately no food in the evening, but amazing pint of Broadside. Wish more pubs served similar beer

This pub was new to me and this wasy failing. Sunday lunch excellent value with free roast potatoes if just having drinks.

This place rocks... Great entertainment. Love it when they have their outside summer events as the whole village comes out to celebrate and it's fabulous. Parking available but small carpark. The staff are lovely and always welcoming. Lovely country pub 🍻 💕 If you go please be considerate to the people that live near the pub and don't block drive ways however as there's plenty of room alongside the pub on left side of road to park. There is a lovely park on the right side to walk to and it's really pretty, beautiful area to walk around and very friendly people that will always say hello to you. Love this place and love Swinderby.

Been back and our thoughts are still the same.... What a lovely local pub this is. The service was good, food fresh and home made. We had the beef sunday dinner and it was really nice. Plenty of veg and gravy to go with. We will defo go back when next in the area. I actually forgot to take photos of my food. I would recommend booking.

Great Sunday dinner at a reasonable price. Staff and customers were welcoming.

This is a proper mega friendly village pub which you must visit!!

Only had a coffee, 5 stars given for friendliness of staff and customers.

Lovely family-run pub. Very friendly, very obliging staff. Traditional pub menu, with a nice variety. Excellent food.

The best local village pub that I have stumbled upon, it is located in a half way through on my commute - perfect place to stop, great service, lovely people, must visit if you're around ..

amazing village pub. unbelievablly welcomed. unreal hospitality and amazing home made food!!!

Great Sunday lunch well prepared and served up by the lovely ladies that work there

Did not have food but great pub

My family and I turned up after food had stopped being served , but the lady at the bar went above and beyond to accommodate us ..... inside was a lovely friendly atmosphere .... thankyou

Very friendly service for this little village pub

Stopped here on our way to our holiday beautiful little pub we had 5 meals all big, tasty food and amazing value for money, Great county pub 5* staff also super friendly

Excellent value for money lovely Sunday lunch nice staff.

Great service, amazing food and nice atmosphere! Highly recommend x

Nice country pub. Friendly staff. We just dropped in for a drink with friends

Beautiful food. Excellent Sunday dinner

Food is all home made and great..

Described as a gastropub on Google which doesn't seem appropriate for the Plough. Reasonable beer selection.

Didn't do food but cooked us 2 meals very friendly with go again 13/7/22 this was at 7.30pm

Friendly local pub. Great choice of beer.

Had a great lunch. Authentic. Great service.

A small pub with a big heart ❤️ We were visiting our very good friends who eat here often. The landlady is fab cooks and waits tables. The food is lovely home cooked and plenty of it too no small gravy jugs here and topped up if needed. The menu is small but enough. Sky TV quiz nights and more. Really friendly atmosphere Look forward to our return Thank you

Called for a meal early afternoon. Not a big restaurant style pub more of a local with a few tables for meals and that's no bad thing. There were 4 of us and had 3 different meals that took about 15/20 minutes to arrive but were all home cooked and good quality ingredients that were really tasty. I was a bit shocked as a tight Yorkshireman at 10 quid ish for Lasagne but it really was worth it. Definitely recommend the Plough. Don't expect 'spoons prices but worth it for the tasty home cooked food. Thanks to all at the Plough 👍

Lovely little village pub. The young lady behind the bar was very friendly and welcoming. The food when it came was good, but unfortunately took an hour to arrive. We were not in a hurry, otherwise we would probably have left.

I fish in the area and the plough was recommended to me. However i didn't find it particularly welcoming. I was hoping to get a meal but they don't cook in the evenings. I asked about a sandwich but that was out of the question too. Ended up with a sandwich from a corner shop after a 3 hour drive.

Busy pub, good beer, friendly helpful staff

I only had the Guinness but the lads had other beers and liked them. Nice outdoor area, too. Nice and quiet.

We popped in here for some lunch whilst traveling from Grimbsy back to Oxford. It added just a couple of miles to our trip and was well worth the visit over your regular side of the road eateries. Both Hannah and Helen were lovely and made us feel welcome despite having some issues with the card machine (I hope these are resolved!). Food was great and service polite and individual. It feels like a lovely little 'regulars' pub but one which is welcoming to passers by. We will likely stop again here next time we are passing by.

Fantastic pub brilliant staff love Helen to bits

Fabulous Sunday lunch. Very pleasant staff. Will definitely visit again.

Good beer and friendly service in a traditional village pub. Lively atmosphere - I felt welcome even as a non-local. Will definitely call again when in the area.

This is a proper village pub. The beer is always good and the locals welcoming. We love it.

Nice staff, great drinks, fab beer garden, cool live music. Great village pub.

Good food and a nice pale on tap. Shame it's not a freehouse but you can't have it all. 👍🏼

My family love eating here especially Sunday lunch. It is a proper village pub with good food and good beer. The staff are always ready to greet with a smile. We have had the luxury of food being brought to our door during lockdown and as we are being shielded it is a highlight of the week. We look forward to being able to eat there once “normality” returns.

What a great personal service we stopped in after work for a quick pint to be treated with free snacks

Good beer, pleasant staff, good bands and nice people

Great atmosphere, proper local pub

Absolutely brilliant meal for Sophie's 18th birthday thanks Helen. Food and service is fantastic. Xxxxx

Clean and comfortable premises.Polite staff.good was average.substitutions were made to some dishes because some ingredients were not available.Would have been okay if we were told before dish was put in front of us.We then had to query it.

Went there with my Father who served in the RAF in the village 60 years ago. Friendly staff, wide choice of meals prepared to order. Unfortunately, as I was driving, could not try out the choice of real ales. As my father is in a wheelchair, toilet facilities are rather difficult.

I was always told to tell the truth and be honest. So this little place has great potential to be a beautiful friendly pub for family and friends to meet. The food was fresh, although took a little time because of such. The dishes made were very tasty but it feels like as we were a table of six and they didnt expect us, that they were not quite prepped. This is because the home made chips added to the dish were of a small portion.... but more were made and brought to the table without even asking.

A great Saturday night was had by all, fabulous live music, lovely friendly staff and regulars. Highly recommended

Small friendly village pub, meals are also served. Car park and garden.

Good atmosphere and great service always

Great place to converse and enjoy an eclectic mix of personalities. I have never had a negative experience in the plough. Good people, good atmosphere!!

The Plough is a great village pub with amazing staff who do everything with great effort to ensure punters are kept happy. Not only do they look after the locals that drink there but they are equally great with new faces. Fab selection of drinks, reasonable prices and excellent food. I 100% recommended this pub to anyone passing by.

Me and my friends were looking for somewhere to eat on a Sunday and we came across this pub well what can I say wow what a gem homemade roast beautiful really nice service brill will be returning for another thank you for the lovely service

We just popped in for some food and drinks after Lost Village festival. Highly recommend this place, lovely owners and staff and lovely locals :) we felt very welcomed and looked after during our stay! Thank you to The Plough.

We called in again for Sunday lunch, really enjoyed the meal ,everything is homecooked and fresh. The desserts are also homemade and delicious. Our second visit and won’t be the last, the staff are very friendly and the pub has a very welcoming atmosphere. Definitely recommend

Very welcoming & great atmosphere

We popped for lunch on our long journey home from Kent,was worth the detour. I had a Ploughmans lunch which had such a lovely choice and such a large variety of pickles and cheese.My husband asked for a ham salad sandwich and goodness me when it arrived it was huge 4 slices bread,the couple who were serving we're very chatty and hospitable.I would give it 10 out of 10 😁

Love this place good owner nice staff

Lovely meals thank you. Lovely little country pub . Thanks Sue, Julian, Jenny & Paul.

Absolutely amazing Sunday roast. Lovely traditional old pub

Sunday lunch out of this world. Competitively priced, beautiful succulent meats with proper crackling and Yorkshire. Veg is endless. Staff attentive and eager to please. Beer and selection of wines and spirits vast for a small pub. Land lady Helen has got it all covered We love it here. Book early for food as seating is limited.....helen doesn't cram you in like sardines which is great.....comfortable. We visit a few times a week....sometimes live music too. Great place.......

We came for lunch based on the good reviews and were not disappointed. We each had baguettes served with a small salad. My wife had Ham and I had Ham and Cheese, having discussed if the cheese was tasty. It was! Both members of staff were friendly and chatty. My wife said that the Ladies toilet were clean and fresh. Our only concern was that she was served 'ordinary' Tonic after asking for diet/sugar free. This was problematic for her being a Type 1 Diabetic, when her Blood Sugar reading spiked in the afternoon. This will not prevent us returning but we will ensure that the same mistake is not made on our next visit.

As above. The team at The Plough are just great. Next up is to try their new place at Burton Waters...next to Harbour Lights.

Very nice atmosphere. Food cooked fresh while you wait. Parking and a nice pint.

Great selection of beers and ales. Live music was top notch and staff brilliant!

A proper pub, with everything you need. A selection of beers, an open fire, football on the TV along with great staff

Visited with extended family for Sunday Lunch. It has a good local reputation and we were not disappointed. The meal was an excellent traditional Sunday lunch and was enjoyed by all. The service was friendly and welcoming and the pub had a great ambience. The value was exceptional. We would thoroughly recommend it.

A reasonable country pub, courteous staff crowded by several very grey, octogenarian, practising guitarists , causing pandemonium!!!

Visited friends in skellinthorpe Lincoln who recommended the Plough to us.We went on Friday 24 September to an 80s fancy dress. What can we say amazing friends, fantastic night and Also Nikki and Darren made us very welcome indeed the landlords, and even joined in the fancy dress costume with us. Thanks for a top night to Paul and Sian Gostick. We will be back very soon Guys...we loved it...Lottie n Joe.xx

Quaint village pub. Lovely people, lovely food. Always having nights where people can get involved and dance! music nights etc. Friendly too.

Stopped off for lunch on the way to Lincoln. Large airy seating area. Food was an amazing price and great quality. Lovely latte too. Well worth a visit.

Just met friends for early dinner, very good varied menu. Children menu went down well with a 7 yr old. Excellent value for money. Will be returning. Highly recommended

Went to this venue after it was advertised on the cask ale website. Was not disappointed as Doombar on tap. Venue set in a lovely rural village and serves great food at really competitive prices. Landlady Helen is a charming host and Staff all know the value of great customer service. Will definitely be going back in the near future with friends.

A really great pub that has thrived in the recession when many local hostelries have closed. On a cross roads with lots of parking. Two separate garden areas, a large L shaped bar and adjacent restaurant serving Thai food lunch and dinner and traditional pub food at lunch time.( fantastic Welsh Rarebit with poached egg!) Both menus are varied and excellent. The bar and waiting staff are young and fun. Clientele is mixture of local farm staff and business types. Ladies on their own are made to feel comfortable. Always bustling but can get really busy on Lingfield Park horse race days. Really worth a visit, landlord and lady are great fun. Lots of fun banter, new people get a warm welcome, my local and really appreciated, the Plough is the centre of the local community. If all pubs were like this they would also be busy.

we called on Friday 20th. June at lunch time. The lunch club menu starts at £5.20 for a 3YES 3 COURSE MEAL. we had two 3 course meals plus drinks for only £14.20 Excellent value for money and the food was piping hot and cooked just right with portions being of a good size. would recommend if you are in the Newark road area you try this pub out

A fantastic little village pub, friendly staff, bingo, quizzes and live music. What more could anyone want
