Trunch Cafe in East Lindsey

This the first time me and my wife have visited this Cafe restuarent but it will not be the last. we both had a Lasagne which fantastic.

We had beautiful cream tea on the wendsday & then had breakfast on Fri morning before setting off home good value for money breakfast

This place is amazing. The food is top quality and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The best Italian food I've ever had.

Enjoyable full English breakfast. Fast friendly service and the place looked clean, you can see in the kitchen and that looked spotless. One small complaint, would have liked a branded brown sauce.

Clean and friendly service, food lovely and hot and very reasonable, also it is licenced, thought we would try this place and wasn't disappointed.

The food at this restaurant is very good and very big ( AAA). The only problem with this restaurant is the waitresses. Of the three waitresses, only one give us good service that is Maily. Por todo lo demás lo recomiendo, cocineros, comida, etc.....

Dad recommended this place, said it was run by Italians, but you didn’t necessarily have to have Italian food. So was sceptical until I walked in, received a warm welcome & looked at the extensive Italian & typical English menu. Run by friendly Italians, had one of the best carbonara I’ve ever had. Lots of Italian dishes & pizzas on the menus, alongside your usual British classics. Worth a visit!

We tried here for a meal and were disappointed The pricing is similar to top restaurants unfortunately the dishes weren’t We had steak pie which was poor quality bland small amount of meat with a wierd topping similar to a burnt tortilla?? Also had tuna jacket which had a small amount of tuna and a tiny portion of salad Drinks are ridiculously expensive The servers weren’t at all friendly and all spoke in a foreign language

Well been using this restaurant since it opened in its current (and when it was tiger cafe before) and we have never been treated as badly as well tonight. A nice young waitress who has served us many times took our order. The other waitress a larger lady brought our steaks and my son asks which was which 2 were to be cooked differently she absolutely gleard at him with eýes wide oped and snapped at him..there all the same...it was terrible. We ate our food and decided to leave pudding because we were so upset. I went to pay and again the same waitress was at the counter..she glared with wide open eyes and and said are you going to pay...I had my card in my ready to pay....absolutely disgusting behavior. We had breakfast there as well this morning so have spent over £100 today and Intended to have breakfast and dinner tomorrow..NEVER AGAIN WILL WE SET FOOT IN THAT PLACE.

The lovely lady who took our food requests this morning in May was so friendly and had a great rapport with all of the customers on the outside seating. Nice to be able to have a vegan option or two too. The toilets are in there, just to the left.

We came into the Trunch on a whim after shopping. From the outside and the decor it looks like a normal cafe. However the food is on another level! I Had the sea bass that came out beautifully cooked on a bed of muscles and a delicious sauce. The fish had a beautifly crispy skin with buttery flesh. This is truly a hidden gem with delicious food, great service, good value for money and a friendly atmosphere. My wife has several aleggies and they went above board to cater for them. I came in expecting a cafe. I'm leaving feeling like I just ate at the Ritz. The food alone is easily worth 3 rosettes.

Called in here after reading & viewing images on TripAdvisor. So glad we did ,had 3 meals, all very good, Mini grill, pollo in peppercorn, & a pizza, food was delicious, this is not cafe food ! It was presented lovely, & was our best food in Chapel. Don't be fooled by it being called a cafe , we nearly was . Thanks again to the staff.

Called twice to this cafe first time had the steak pie pots and peas excellent pie nice meet so thought we would call again this time tryed their 1/2 pound cheese burger and chips for around £8 what a let down chips more bits than proper chips the burger wasn't bad tastered but this wasn't a large burger has advertised so more than likely won't bother calling again

Had breakfast a couple of times perfect & hot and came out quick also had the takeaway pizza meal brilliant

We have visited this place a few times and never had a bad meal, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the food is amazing, and good value for money, will be back.

absolutely amazing!! best meal i have eating in a long time… staff were brilliant, such great service…food arrived quick with good presentation.first time coming and will definitely be back 😊😊

Really great food and very friendly staff clean cafe and very reasonably priced would eat here again , would recommend to anyone.

Really slow service. Took us ages to get our breakfast. 2 ladies seemed more interested in chatting up the locals who they obviously knew. This used to be a great place to eat. Time to sort it out.

Cafe is clean, staff are polite and food is excellent. Pasta & chicken dishes are extremely tasty. Pizza & garlic breads are light and delicious. We found this place in Sept 21 and enjoyed our food then and was happy to return in April 22. Will defo be back.

Food was lovely when it eventually arrived. Didn't seem to have enough staff on a busy bank holiday weekend. Other tables received their food before us which is alway annoying. I think they're trying to do too much here and would benefit from cutting down on the menu, working smarter and training waitresses. As previously said on here Toilet could do with upgrading.

Was one of our favourite places ,this season has been dire after last few visits trying to give them benefit of doubt its a def no from now on go every sat £40/50 ,poor quality wrong orders ,no beer on pump ,staff overworked not enough In the times of covid I really like to support ,wish this place really wanted your business

Visit here on a regular basis however the last few visits have been terrible. The waiting time was way longer that it should be and when asked was told repeatedly 5 mins which turned out to be 35 minutes which is unacceptable. When the food came it wasn’t a good standard which was disappointing. The tables are far too close together. The sauce bottles need to be wiped more frequently. Also would be advisable not to put the cutlery on the table before seating as you don’t know whose touched it beforehand. Toilet could do with a updating too. Also it is soooo hot in there

First time visit today. Had a great breakfast, excellent service and a good price. Would recommend this cafe. Thank you.

i just love this place it will stay with me forever the breakfast are well made,cook to perfection,super nice drimnk and lovely staff who wave at us when we walk past thank you trunch

Been to this restaurant last night and tonight whilst on holiday. The food is fantastic and good size portions prices brilliant too. The waitress was lovely and attentive could not fault the service. Would definitely recommend this to friends and family. The choice of food...

Cafe looked nice from the outside, so decided to try their breakfast, and we were not disappointed. The food was fresh, with good sized portions, and very well cooked. The staff were very cheerful, and nothing seemed to be a problem to them even though...

Staff are very friendly, food is well priced, affordable and tasty! Facilities are clean. We will be back!

Decided on here after checking out the reviews & was pleasantly surprised, even at peak time. Attentive & friendly staff, order taken promptly & food wasn't long brought out after. Kids portions are a good size. I ordered the pasta meditterano and I would of...

Clean and tidy up to standard will recommend the place to friends and family just a short walk from the beach

Doesn't look much from the outside but don't let that put you off. I had the most delicious lasagne from here & my husband had the breakfast (served up until 1pm) which he enjoyed. The latte's are especially good! Would certainly return.

We went here for a cavers style Sunday lunch. It was delicious. Had turkey witch was moist and just fell apart. All veg was cooked to perfection, including the roast potatoes. Mash was lovely and creamy too. It was excellent value for money and will...

Visited with my daughter and grandchildren. We all choose different meals and we were all happy with our food. My grandson was concerned we hadn’t ask for his egg to be runny, however he was impressed and declared his egg was better than daddy makes!...

Steak was very tough.. spaghetti bolognese a bit watery and flavourless. Waiting staff polite and friendly

Fresh pizza base and fresh toppings. Good size pizzas and the me kids meals are great value. Service is good, often young front of house staff but they care about getting it right. Good home made desserts. One of the best in the area!

Had another beautiful meal last night we go every week with the grandchildren age 14 and 11 the menu suits us all and the prices are excellent for the quality Last week we decided to try Larissa as a one off and all I will...

lovely food and staff, clean tables and early opening for a delicous cooked breakfast. would reccomend

Went on our first day of our holiday and found this to be a little gem. High quality mixed grill and gammon and my son said he had the best pizza he's ever had.

By far the best coffee in town serving all the best Italian coffees. The food was lovely too and can recommend their omelettes. Sitting outside with our 2 Whippets was never a problem.

Had a breakfast. Cheap and cheerful, could be better quality. Staff could have a little more customer service and perhaps invest in a card machine

Doubleplus good quality food Lincolnshire sausages hand made burgers lovely airie spacious light and you can watch the cooking if you wish

Popped in for a tuna baked potato, nice but nothing special. Disappointed with size of the spud 🥔. Place is clean and tidy. Staff never really said a word during my visit.

Been going to Trunch Lane Cafe for over four years. Food is good but not consistent enough. Sometimes excellent sometimes average sometimes poor. Such a shame as when you get it on a good day food is excellent. Red wine is beautiful. Chocolate pancake amazing. A little more attention to detail is needed. On our last visit the tables were clean however sauce bottles, vinegar bottle and salt and pepper pots were disgusting and needed a wipe. Decor could do with improvement as well. With there not being enough eating places on Trunch Lane if they improved these issues could be amazing. Staff very friendly. Toilet definitely needs improving.

Great place, doesn't look much from the outside but really big inside.

Nice place friendly staff but the breakfast wasn't the best sausage was deffo yesterday's re heat would go again tho

Staff always pleasant in a clean environment menu with plenty of choice with a great carvery served on sundays

This is somewhere that we have visited every year we come on holiday but the standards seem to have dropped. Start with the positive my wife was happy with her burger except instead of a tomato slice she got quarter of a tomato seemed a little odd.

Highly recommend this restaurant. Lovely breakfast at a reasonable price and great selections for lunch and evening meals. Staff are friendly and the service is good too.

Nice restraunt, friendly staff , very clean nice atmosphere. We ordered a special two chips, egg ham and salad. Chips were nice and crispy eggs were done just right ham was not plastic ham and salad was crispy. Coffee was fantastic I had a cappuccino and it was frothy and strong .My Partner had an Americanno . The only disappointment was the toliets no hot water to wash your hands and the lock was crudely attached to the door.

Lovely little cafe - we had a carvery which was nice. Nice and polite friendly staff. The drinks etc were very reasonable - we ate out here twice on our holiday

Lovely food and drink very reasonable prices too. Clean outlet and very nice staff. Will definitely be back.

Food was fantastic .... prices were great too .... me n my mates had breakfast there and the portion sizes were good .... definitely worth going to if in the area .... Il definitely be going back myself

Went here last weekend with my son and his girlfriend for breakfast and was lovely so thought this weekend id take my hubby as a treat as had been so nice before but oh what a difference a few days can make very dissapointing the sausage seemed very poor cheap quality compared to previous weekend hash brown undercooked and toast barely coloured with very little butter but that was only spread in the centre even the bread with butter was only spread in the centre. Such a shame. The staff are so lovely and welcoming but food poor so will not return.

We ordered a take away pizza, it's one of the best iv ever had. Reminds me of the ones I had in Italy, great price too

Very polite staff...great service and food was beautiful....will be going back again to try the breakfast

Every time we go to our van we always come here for a 'belly buster' breakfast. It is by far the best breakfast in the area. (all items on the menu are spot on too!) More than generous portions. Great brew! Always a little busy. But that's to be expected, only a small cafe but it really us decent. I'm still yet to try an evening meal here, my mother in law absolutely loves the lasagne here. She even gets done to take home and only ever eats it from here now! Worth a try. Staff are friendly and nothing is ever too much trouble for them. Great service. Great food.

Lovely staff fantastic food. Large selection of quality fresh cooked dishes best place around by far we had salmon /carbanra/and penne pasta all are great

Great menu, lovely friendly service. Freshly cooked to order, loads on the plate and a great price. Two mains, a large glass of red wine and an orange juice £20.65. Fabulous! We will be back soon!

Always pop in here for an Italian meal when in the area. Lovely staff, great food,at a reasonable price too. Have been several times now and never had a complaint yet.

We came across this restuarant by chance but are so glad we did. The breakfast was lovely and a great way to start the day. Lots of choices and you do not have to stick to a fixed meal. Karen the waitress was very friendly and attentive. We went 5 out of 6 mornings for our breakfast. Pity it is closed now for the winter but we will definitely revisit the next time we visit Chapel.

Excellent breakfasts, nicely cooked and nicely served in a friendly atmosphere. Also tried the evening menu and had a lasagne to die for. Very very nice and highly recommended. Reasonably priced and also an excellent takeaway service for breakfast.

This place is good for the food but terrible for the general ambiance and level of background noise. Can thoroughly recommend the Pizza and they do an excellent bottle of italian wine. Excellent service but cash only

Fresh food at a very good price, You wait for your food but you dont mind with how tasty it is ! Thanks will definetly be coming back. 5*****

Buena comida, limpieza y muy amable. El chocolate caliente está hecho de Bélgica y no real de chocolate chocolate en polvo - delicioso.

Este restaurante es una buena comida a precios asequibles. Gran variedad de inglés y comidas italianas que están disponibles para comer en el lugar o para llevar, que es una auténtica ventaja, desde mi punto de vista. Lo maravilloso es la comida para llevar, es...

3 adultos y 2 niños tenía 3 platos italianos y 2 inglés grandes porciones de comida bien preparada y muy sabrosa excelente a precios razonables

Han estado aquí varias veces durante el año. La comida en general es buena, pero el lugar está vacío de ambiente. Necesita clasificar como luces son muy bajos. Al pasar no puedes ver dentro. Muchas veces tenemos en y sólo había 2/otras 3 parejas. Una cosa que no me pongan a ir allí es el hecho de que el personal sentarse en las mesas fuera de la fumar y tener un café cuando no están ocupados.

Ha sido para el desayuno hoy. La comida es increíble relación calidad-precio y el personal es muy agradable y amable. Vale la pena una visita. El desayuno es bastante grande para el precio que pagamos y será un lugar que visitar. Única manera que podría ser mejor si estaba mirando hacia el mar.

Just had a lovely take away from here and as usual food was lovely . The takeaway is as good as the eat in food . Sat and had a lovely glass of rose and a chat with staff while I waited . Nothing is too much trouble here and the food is amazing value for money

We recently visited with friends, the food was excellent, with a wide choice of dishes, from a delicious pie, to salmon cooked in a sauce, which was mouth-watering, reasonable prices too. The staff were friendly & welcoming, & it was ver clean, we would go back there again!

Had breakfast here for several mornings whilst on holiday in nearby caravan park. Only £2.50 for a small breakfast. Very tasty, eggs cooked to perfection. Lovely, friendly staff. Would recommend.

Went on a Sunday for a carvery they have a choice of beef turkey and lamb, I chose the lamb which is already sliced for with a good variety of fresh vegetables well worth a visit and good value at 6.50

This was my first time at Chapel; I'd gone to visit my family who were on holiday. We decided to nip out for Sunday lunch, but as I had my dog with me we were limited as to where we could go.We noticed a couple with a dog sat outside The Trunch Lane Cafe/Restaurant and we spotted the carvery board, so we decided to stay. I am so glad we did.The staff were professional, friendly and very polite and efficient.We all had a carvery. The beef melted in your mouth. It was good old-fashioned English snap and it was cooked perfectly, none of this bleeding stuff you tend to see nowadays that you expect to get up and run off your plate. The vegetables were firm, the Yorkshire puddings were crisp and the gravy was medium thickness (not like that watery stuff a lot tend to serve up these days).All in all it was a very pleasant experience with the food being perfect for our taste.We will definitely be going again :)

Always lovely food eat in or take out .Great value for money and the staff are all really great .They use a lot of local produce too

Brilliant service, great food, and such good prices !! One of the best places ive eaten often call in for lunch and have never been disappointed with the food and service !! ... great little hidden gem !

came in two days running With the family 5 kids 2 adults for breakfast which is no easy task they were very accommodating,helpful 7 different breakfast ordered all came together after a short wait (5 mins) all kids finished with not one "I don't like this " if you are anywhere near here I recommend you pop in for food it's great great staff and the foods brilliant and not over price and you walk out with full bellys you can't ask for anymore

Nipped in for a quick breakfast after finding it out of chance! Lovely staff and food. Catered for our requests. Very quiet and parking was right outside. Glad stumbled on past it.

This area is crying out for some decent places to eat, there are lots of places but they tend to be very low quality and over priced - this place is the best option on trunch lane in my opinion, we have been for breakfast and sunday lunch, the breakfast was nice, standard English breakfast at a reasonable price - the Sunday carvery however was fantastic and only £6.50.My only criticism would be the friendliness of some of the staff, could be improved, not rude at all just leave you to it.Good service, nice food and would recommend spending that little bit more and eating here.

Visited the Trunch Cafe a couple of times this week and the food is absolutely fantastic. We visited last year and the lady who served us was very lovely, she recognised us from last year and the service as well as the food is second to none. It is good value for money also. Worth a visit for sure. Both of my boys love it there as it is child friendly, my youngest can vouch that the Spaghetti Bolognese is lovely

Food was decent for the price, we only had breakfasts but couldn't complain although the sausages tasted cheap. Pretty spacious and staff weren't as bad as other places around this area

I came here for breakfast and was greeted by a very friendly lady who suggested the "Mega Breakfast" as I said I was hungry. I asked that the bacon was cooked really well done. I also ordered coffee which was served almost as soon as I sat down. The breakfast arrived within six minutes. It looked lovely, well presented and piping hot. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the beans weren't stodgy and the Bacon was cooked well done as I'd asked for. Even the toast was hot. I was very impressed not only with the excellent, friendly and helpful service but also the delicious breakfast which was so big that I didn't eat for hours afterwards! It was so good that I came back the next day for a repeat performance! I would recommend anyone to come an eat here. The place is big enough to absorb pushchairs without causing inconvenience and even wheelchairs could travel up and down the rows of tables and chairs with ease. I personally can not fault the Trunch Cafe. Ten out of ten!!!

Good value and well prepared food.Friendly staff .Clean and tidy premises.Always a pleasure to eat here.

After the first time last Saturday which we had was coffee and carrot cake, which was yummy, we saw a sign saying cavery on Sundays, so we came back on the following Sunday Which was 10 th April 2016, the cavery was excellent, the lamb and beef was melt in the mouth and veg and pots and gravy was perfect, would recommend, thanks again and see u soon

Absolutely recommend this Cafe at night it becomes an Italian and grill restaurant and the food is superb a must visit. Reasonably priced fresh delicious food.

This place has a fabulous menu but just missing the trick by always being out of stock of something or something missing off the plate it is a shame as not much else on trunch lane having tried the others please get it together for next season

Great staff lovely coffee, nice sauages for the dogs too nice that get choice sausages look forward to next year

Had much better 3rd visit now (good to give someone a chance)Food not amazing that's if they've got what you ask for in Asked for food without herbs it comes with herbs...ask for pasta you get chips ....they say 30 mins it's 60....will I go back? No !

food was nothing special ordered a belly buster brekky to be told they had no hash browns and they would put me extra bacon on to which i didnt get the coffee tatsed awfull they came out and took my plate before i had even finished eating and it was pricey to say the least would not go back and would not reccomend

First of all, if you have just accepted a table of 15 people, then please have the good grace and manners to let prospective diners know and don't keep them waiting for over an hour for their food! And please remember that when the food is also inedible an hour later, that the least you can do is not CHARGE them for their drinks! Dreadful waitress who thought she owned the place and NO, WE WON'T BE GOING BACK! Full gourmet restaurant prices for complete rubbish!

We've holidayed as a family at Chapel Saint Leonards for the last three years and have used this cafe quite a lot. In the mornings they do a fantastic range of cooked breakfasts, in the evening they become a family orientated Italian style restaurant. The Pizzas and pasta are gorgeous as are the traditional British dishes and it really is exceptional value for money My only criticism is that the waiting staff can be a little slow, other than that I really can't fault it.

This cafe will not disappoint you, it may not look like much but it represents good value, beautiful Italian and English food! Well worth a visit 5 star!

Having visited this undiscovered restaurant a couple of nights ago i was desperate to share our experience. The service from start to finish was second to none and the food even better! I had seabass served with king prawns portions were huge and such good value for money. This chef and this restaurant are wasted in trunch lane. Deffinatly worth a visit for evening meal......cant wait to return!!

Fantastic service staff helpful lovely food great prices accomdating for baby and childrenMe and hubby been there 20 times never had a problem

Poor and very slow service. Had brekkie which took 15 mins as fresh cooked which i didnt mind however burnt toast, cold fried egg and more rind than bacon. Never again

waitress fantastic, food terrible and even after it had been sent back it wasn't fit. we went for breakfast and found it very disappointing. would not recommend

Really lovely food, the Italian food was especially good, the pizzas and calzones are fantastic. You can sit in the licenced restaurant or take away to your caravan. Very nice staff.

Food nice. Waitress has Alzheimer's until they're reminded that you've ordered. Drinks went cold before meal arrived. Butter not spread on bread, just dolloped on!

Wellcome & friendly staff efficient service,we had the medium breakfast very good quality given choice of Lincolnshire or pork sausage.Had coffee which was lovely & you get enough for 2 cups,whole meal came to £14-10 for 3 of us very good value,will definitely be regular customers

I have visited this cafe since the first day it opened and have never been disappointed, the food is locally sourced and of the best quality, everything is cooked fresh to order. I understand that they did have a food hygiene visit on a busy bank holiday when things did get overlooked and we have been assured that steps have been taken to address this and ensure it does not happen again. The cooking of the food is in full view of the customers and the staff are always cleaning when they are not busy which is reassuring to see. It is a shame that people with personal issues with the owner have to resort to bringing down an excellent cafe which was well needed in the area just out of spite when surely we are reviewing the business and it's qualities.

Recently visited this restaurant and came away with terrible stomach aches, spent the next few days on the toilet. I have since checked the rating of this place and although they're displaying a 4 star, they're actually a 1 as if August this year. Disgraceful.

Not many that eat here realize that the cafe was only given a food rating of 1 earlier this year , A big Improvement is needed.
