The Tilted Barrel in North East Lincolnshire

Mediocre meal, which was very disappointing given the wealth of positive reviews. Expensive beer. Too noisy in the restaurant to enjoy a meal - largely due to a table of six-eight inconsiderate people who were way louder than everyone else. Lovely restaurant room but the atmosphere was more like a busy bar. It put us off staying for dessert or coffee, we just wanted to pay and get out the place. Not a relaxing experience

Ordered soft cook veg with fish pie. Served as soft cooked. Uncuttable with knife, sent back, reserved same veg, same situation. Pie not.much fish in it, mostly mashed pots. Price was £15.. Reccomend chef should try eating his own food before serving to public. Pensioner

Booked for 6oclock last Saturday I had sirloin steak cooked to absolute perfection my son loved the fishpie my wife and daughter in law had the steak pie which was excellent all in all staff most helpful and accommodating making my birthday a night to remember

Great night out went with the In-laws well presented food all served at a reasonable time great place to catch up and unwind with great food

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch which we all enjoyed and have booked to go again. We have been to several local venues in recent times for Sunday lunch and this was by far the best.

It's pleasure and privilege going to The Tilted Barrel in Waltham i been few times now especially on Saturdays Evenings it's a pleasure and privilege going to highly recommended place to visit.

We had starters which were really good and a fair size too and the main meals were also good sized portions, I had the garlic mushrooms to start and then the fish & chips I really enjoyed them my misses had the prawn cocktail starter and the roast pork dinner only thing she had to say was the gravy was a little too salty really.

Lovely pub. Music 🙃is horrendous far too loud.. you cannot have a conversation without shouting at eachother ..Cannot stay in there to long .. have to leave everytime.. perfect apart from loudness..unbearable

Excellent meal and staff. Was taken there for my 🎂. Will definitely be going again.

Another delicious lunch at the Tilted Barrel. Great village pub and restaurant serving consistently high quality food. If you're looking for the best chips in North East Lincolnshire, this place is probably a contender. Would highly recommend the fish pie, fish and chips or cauliflower steak, plus any of the sandwiches. Having said that, I've never had a disappointing meal here, so take your pick from the extensive menu.

Great village pub, always there every week. 3 different hand pulls and plenty of draft on sale.

Never had a bad meal here as a regular customer with family. Food & desserts are all delicious . The girls here work so hard, are friendly & can't do enough for you. Nice, clean service.

Celebrated our anniversary last night in the restaurant. We were greeted & served by lovely professional friendly staff. Our meals starter/main & sweet were fabulous. Husband had a perfectly cooked steak-how he likes his steak cooked I chose the veggie lasagna which was delicious. It won’t be long before we are back- thank you all.

Had a great meal, a lovely atmosphere. Good selection of dishes to suit all tastes.

Absolutely brilliant service and food was amazing. Definitely a must go to place.

Really nice food, nice restaurant, fair pricing

We have used this restaurant many times over the years. This occasion was to celebrate my dad and my partner’s birthday. We arrived at 7pm, our table was booked for 7:30pm we was early so we couldn’t order till 7:30pm so we all had a drink. The only guy working behind the bar was the guy who also took our order who cleared tables took money and run the bar. He came to take our order which was 7.50pm. Half an hour later he brought the starters, bearing in mind there was only about 3 tables occupied in the restaurant so it was not busy at all. Our mains arrived half hour later. Scampi didn’t look very impressive didn’t looked cooked and all and the vegetables with the lamb and meat pie was raw, it looked like it never even hit the boiling water in a pan shocking. Definitely was not a good experience and won’t be visiting again. And the bill was expensive for what you got.

Im really trying hard not to let my recent experience ruin one of my favourate restaurants. I took my mother for Sunday dinner, we wanted pie instead of meat and we noticed on the menu that the pie didnt come with Parsnips but the meat did. When i questioned this, the server asked if we would like them with our meal, we said yes. When we went to pay the bill, they had added £1 to each meal for 2 small Parsnips! I was speachless. Going the extra mile doesnt count if you have to pay for it. Especially if you were not told that you would have to pay for it before you accept. Surely, customer satisfaction and good reputation means more than charging for tiny extra's. They also charged £1.50 for a small glass of orange cordial. considering tap water is free, thats a lot of pennys for a spash of Orange. Very disappointed, If i didnt enjoy the food so much, I would not return.

Excellent food with a good atmosphere . Service can be a bit slow, had to chase up an order , only downside is the manager has a bit of an attitude, not what you expect in this industry

Excellent bar with great staff as well as an excellent bar maid service with great food overall great pub

You can get a decent pint in this popular village pub.

Food was fantastic. A last minute choice for some food on a Sunday afternoon. Very glad we did. We will definitely be back.

Didn’t eat here but nice cosy bar and go service

Chicken wrap cold and full of Greece 2 portions of chips not enough for one person sheshe kebabe ok popadoms staile.and one chuckney dip not worth the 35 pound I spent

This place is a real hidden gem. A country style pub with a lovely contemporary extension hosting a lovely restaurant. Since discovering this place we've been back five times in six months, taking good friends & family, spreading the word and recommending this place to everyone who wants to take their loved ones out to somewhere special just to treat them to a fantastic meal in gorgeous surroundings. ❤️👍🥂

Great place to relax if like me your walking the dog(s)!

Sunday lunch was lovely! I had beef Sunday Lunch husband had pork Sunday Lunch and daughter had pate. all main dishes we’ve had before. What makes this pub stand out from the rest: food is good and value for money; most of all ……the female front of house are respectful; friendly; show caring attributes; customer service is above standard; desserts are of a great standard. We will go again because the standard is high and booking a table is a must it gets busy! Give it a try it’s a must!

Beautiful atmosphere staff lovely, food would of been perfect on our Sunday lunch if the vegetables where cooked longer to hard and I understand over cooking but this was very under cooked

Great food, really tasty everytime and well presented. Always good desserts on offer too. Decent cocktails. I love that they have the entertainment on Thursdays and the pub has a great atmosphere. Recommend coming here for food on special occasions if wanting to go local.

Enjoyed a late birthday meal here today, great menu , especially the vegetarian, i had the vegetarian lasagne, gorgeous. Friendly bar staff!

Went xmas eve, always a great atmosphere

I was very disappointed with the so called lasagne. It was more of a pasta bake. It was dry and tasteless and no creamy sauce. It was served up with salad and boiled potatoes. I've never had potatoes with pasta before.

Each & every time I have dined here ive enjoyed the food & how its served. When i have been with others and seeing different choices they all look delicious cant fault it at all. Service is good. Its clean & well set out. Wash rooms are very clean. Carpark close by there are steps to entrance to restaurant area but there is also a ramp leading into the entrance of the building. There's also a separate bar to have a drink & a TV on the wall. Lovely decor through out. Thoroughly recommend.

Friendly pub offering good food at reasonable prices

Really good food here, been a few times now. Had a steak and it was very nice! Better than miller & carter and better service. The gammon was a little tough, but the desserts are always on point! Small place with a good atmosphere, separate from the pub area but on Thursdays can pop over the other side to listen to some live singers. Lovely little local, cost more than your average pub but well worth it for the quality food! Will definitely visit again.

Excellent food and great service

Food was OK, just seriously meagre portions. My roast arrived and I wondered where the rest of it was.

Nice enough food, just not a great deal of it. I thought my Sunday roast meagre and left still hungry

Superb food and very good service

I was impressed with the upgrade, the seating area was very pleasant, the food was really good with lots of choice, and good value for money. I will go again to try the different dishes, and deserts, available.

Lovely setting, beautifully cooked veg and Yorkshire pudding …. Meal was let down by very tough beef. Would go back but not make this choice next time !

Wish it was my local. Very good thanks

Been here a 4 or 5 times. Been excellent every time.

Busy little pub, in a nice village. Great atmosphere & reasonably priced drinks. Will be returning to try out the food!!!

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and great staff

Brilliant place . Lovely staff and great food.

Not as good as I expected, had the sticky beef and it was awful, far too much sauce, couldn't find the rice, vegetables were the best part of the dish, my husband had the salmon which was OK, but far too much lettuce on the plate, wouldn't rush back. The restaurant was lively which was about the best part of a very poor meal.

Disappointed with the food, salmon on a bed of far to much salad, and sticky beef that was just swimming in sauce, hard to find the rice in the dish, perhaps it was our choice of food that was wrong. Certainly would not rush back. Staff were attentive and the atmosphere was good which made up for a disappointing night.

This pub/restaurant deserves 5 stars all round. We had an excellent meal last Thursday. Quality and presentation of food, friendly, efficient staff and a great atmosphere made our evening. We recommend you try this pub but you need to book well in advance if you want to try the carvery as there's a 3 week wait!

We have had dinner here tonight as a party of 4. We are visiting friends and live in London. The food was exceptional as was the service. Every starter and main meal was fantastic, fresh, hot and very tasty. Thank you, we will definitely be back.

We popped in for lunch as soon as it opened and managed to get a table for two, so many choices on the menu. Staff were straight over with an order pad for drinks and back again to take out food order. We could have ordered so many things, we had lasagna and a sandwich…it was so good. Proper homemade chips with the lasagna and you can tell it’s all homemade. Loved it. We was in and out which was perfect as we needed to leave after an hour and it was pretty busy for a Wednesday lunch by the time we left!

Menu with plenty of choice. Lovely food in a great restaurant, with friendly and helpful staff. I will definitely return again.

Have eaten few times this year including Sunday lunch very good quality meat and vegetables ,hot plate. Had last Tuesday vegetarian / special followed by Dessert was presented nicely but very small even mean for £7.95 spoon , no fork

Very disappointed, having been two or three times before. Two diners had the dressed crab salad and expected a crab salad in its shell with white and brown meat, but we got a plate full of salad, and new potatoes, but the crab meat was out of a tin and was just white meat mixed with something, doted around the plate. To be put on the main menu board we expected something a little bit different. I could have gone to Morrisons and got a Cromer crab and salad for half the money they charged and with fresh meat. When we complained were told that our comments would be passed to chief, but nothing more was said. The other diners meals were up to normal high quality. Shame.

Beer was very good but pricey, wine was very good and reasonably priced, service wasn't great and could have done with more staff but probably hampered by the small bar.

A very quiet night, only ones in the bar. Good selection, nice place, friendly staff.

1st time i have been to The Tilted Barrel,went on Saturday 27th May 12pm for pre-booked lunch with family, we sat outside in the blazing sun having a few beers while our meals were being prepared, the staff were polite and friendly and our meals was delicious, hoping to return soon.

Nice relaxing atmosphere, food ok, unfortunately one of our dishes had to go back because it was cold, will give it another go.

I’m not often impressed by a pub but the Tilted Barrel at Waltham is an exception, as soon as you walk in there is a calm and friendly atmosphere. Even more impressive are the staff, they actually smile genuinely at you and chat like old friends. In our group of six two of us wanted water, I have PTSD and part of my self treatment is giving up alcohol and the other was the driver, “would you like ice and lemon in those?” asked the smiling Megan. That’s impressive. Ordering my sizzling steak was a surprise too, I was asked if I had any allergies and I didn’t quite know what to say as no one has ever asked me before. As it happens I’m allergic to Mussels and Liver. I’m writing this 5* review because my mental health issues mean I don’t often feel cared for and to find it in a pub is difficult for me to cope with. To cut a long story short - if you need a tonic (sorry) then call in at the Tilted Barrel in Waltham. My apologies to the lovely manager lady and the chef. I lost the bit of paper with the details on before I got back to our fishing lodge, doh 🙄

My fiancé and I had a very unpleasant first experience at The Tilted Barrel. Prior to arriving, we had looked online and saw that they were not closing until 11pm. We entered the bar area at 9:16pm and were met with customers shouting “last orders” repeatedly at us as we were stood at the bar. The bar staff repeated “last orders” and turned his back to us. We couldn’t understand why last orders would be just after 9pm on a bank holiday if they were not closing until 11pm. It very much felt as though it was an exclusive environment whereby only regulars were able to order drinks, hence they were shouting at us to basically leave. When I messaged the pub the following day to ask why we were told ‘last orders’ almost 2 hours before closing time, the manager informed me that it is because the bar staff was making sure no one was served that looked like they were “youngsters that frequent the King’s Head” (another local pub in the village). So because my partner and I look ‘young’ (we are late 20s), we were refused service because that is not the clientele they accept at The Tilted Barrel. I said to the manager on the messages that I didn’t believe it was acceptable to socially profile customers based on their age, and have not heard back with any resolution. I am disappointed that in 2023, there are still establishments that consider discrimination of any sort acceptable. I would strongly advise against visiting Tilted Barrel due to its unwelcoming and prejudice staff.

I ate here yesterday The service was excellent with cheerful friendly staff I had lamb rump that was cooked to perfection My son had rib eye steak that was exactly how he wanted it cooked

The restaurant was clean and tidy. A nice welcome. A slight wait for drinks. Order was taken reasonably quickly, and food arrived shortly afterwards. My colleague had overcooked fish, which was replaced without quibble very swiftly. A cheerful service with reasonable prices. Good specials board.

We had a meal today and can not fault anything the staff were superb and food delicious I would fully recommend this restaurant to anybody wanting a perfect meal and atmosphere.

Brilliant afternoon in great atmosphere.Will definitely visit again the next time we’re in the area.

Once again first class service for 17 people for my birthday , highly recommend 👍👍👍

Great restaurant, friendly attentive staff, fantastic varied choice on menu, great food very tasty and well presented. Thanks

Great little place food great beer great

Great food, good value, nice atmosphere

Excellent fish pie, also my father enjoyed his roast. Photo before all the lovely veggies came out.

Fabulous family birthday meal, lovely food, great atmosphere, friendly, helpful staff. Really appreciated being able to sit and chat at the end of the evening, big 👍 to "The Tilted Barrel.

Absolutely cracking meal, possibly the best steak pie I have ever had. Went for our wedding anniversary, and we weren't disappointed. Proper food served efficiently by professional staff and the price was spot on. Thank you, we will be back.

Great food, service and the restaurant was very modern. Will definitely be returning.

Great teatime couple of beers, average prices but nice bar and comfortable seats all around

On my first time in there the lady behind the bar was very good,although she was on her own, so the orders of food took a little longer than expected.

I wouldn’t hesitate to come back to the tilted . Friendly front of house and great food . I like the way the restaurant is separated from the bar

Friendly staff and reasonable prices

Fab food excellent service will be booking again soon

Second visit to this place and both times we had really nice and filling meals. Staff are pleasant and attentive. Desserts are to die for but a bit on the expensive side for the small portion you do get.

Great food,great service,Really great night out ,see you soon .

Fantastic meal, service was spot on

Holidaying in the area we were drawn to this venue by its positive write ups. We were not disappointed. It’s a bit out of the way but passing the windows we saw a busy bar and realised the ale would be a good start. Camera...

Lovely place and lovely meal. shall be returning

Visited the Tilted Barrel last night 10/12/22. Treated well from the moment we arrived for our 7.45 Table for four persons. So much Choice on menu however three settled for Christmas Choice and one Beef blade. Our starter/main course arrived hot & plentiful in a...

My dad says the cocktails are nice

Excellent as normal thanks to Ben and his team and thanks for the chips they was fantastic 👍

Brilliant Modern Restaurant excellent food drinks service

This was a family get together and thought it would be good to try The restaurant as we’ve heard good reports. We had to wait over an hour and ten minutes for our meals, now we can understand certain difficulties, but this was just tedious....

Fantastic staff, Vicky was brilliant with us,

Very well cooked food and a nice atmosphere and a great menus.

This is a beautiful & friendly restaurant the food was divine service fantastic. Looking forward to going back . Definitely recommend going 👌

Main: Lincolnshire Red Beef, rare. Portion size is alright, two slices of beef, a single parsnip chip, two roast potatoes, a stuffing ball, and a Yorkshire pudding making up 50% of the plate. Beef was somehow flavourless, and the Yorkshire pudding a large cold mass. The stuffing ball was dense and bland... Above average for pub food, but below the expectations set by pricing. Would be better value, and equal quality (but hotter food) with a carvery.

So disappointed , we was given a voucher to use at our favourite place so at lunch on Thursday 15th sept we booked in at 12 , we both ordered a prawn cocktail which was £9 each when it came it was just Lettuce leaves and a few prawns and cocktail sauce ! ( very disappointed) for the price , my husband had the meal pie and veg which I have to say was as nice as it always is . I had steak which I was really looking forward to I asked for med to well done , The chips where lovely and well cooked but my steak was tough and I has to leave it , Told the waitress she said I will tell the chef when we went to pay was asked if all okay besides your steak no reduction and no apologies So I’m sorry to say we are very disappointed , we have been faithful customers even in lockdown but now I’m sorry to say that’s put us off .

Stopped off for a few pints, nice atmosphere and beer garden

Food was amazing , service was fab X

Lovely place to go, staff very helpful and friendly. Meal was very good.

Staying nearby for a week, so decided to take the children for a Sunday lunch to give myself the afternoon off. Food was delicious; flavoursome, hot and very generous portions. Too many places just heat up roasts now, but this tasted much fresher than most....

Went with friends lovely restaurant, bright and airy. Food arrived promptly hot plate as it should be beef perfect, separate vegetables , and gravey .

Nice pub Multiple TV screens to watch BT sports.

Food was very good and served promptly had very good night nothing was too much trouble for staff very good value what's not to like
