Woody's Bar and Restaurant in East Lindsey

FAMILYS WITH DISABILITIES PLEASE AVOID With having special needs family we was not aloud to bring our needs with them not being able to supply us so not good customer services we'll have to find somewhere else to go as a family

First time here. Ordered 4 meals. 2 meals was cold. When returned back with fresh food the burgers was still pink in the middle. Would I recommend......no I wouldn't

A very tasty Carvery! Probably the best Carvery I've ever had. Staff are all fantastic and friendly, there's also a great soft play area!

Today was my first time visiting Woody's Bar & Restaurant, and I must say, I will certainly be returning in the near future. Upon entering, the ambiance was exceptional. The staff was incredibly accommodating and welcoming. The carvery deck was meticulously presented, showcasing an array of meat options as well as vegetarian alternatives. The meat was of superior quality, and the vegetables, potatoes, and gravy were all delectable. The Apple Caramel Cobbler was presented beautifully and tasted exquisite, with a perfect balance of apple flavors and caramel sweetness. I highly recommend this dessert. In summary, Woody's Bar & Restaurant is a must-visit establishment that deserves a 5-star rating. I highly recommend it. Well done, Woody's.

The Carvery is Excellent. Lovely food. The Syrup pudding and Custard beautiful. Well done to the Chef and Staff. I will be recommending.

We went for Wednesday mid week carvery.By far best carvery I've had.Beats toby carvery hands down.shay our carver struggled with the sausages as not cut but that's his complaint he was polite knowledgeable and friendly. Cauliflower cheese and pie were to die for.keep up the good work Steve.

Didn’t eat but everything for children. Be back again

Had a meal here and I have to say it was lovely,Had Fish and Chips.

Been coming to woody bar and restaurant in ingoldmells for nearly 5 years! no didn’t reliese you can only order drinks on wed and sun from the food bar with food no logic to this what’s so ever they then expect you to wait in another queue for your drinks apparently saves time but not on a Wednesday or Sunday logic baffles my brain pls management have a look at this policy you have put in place by you according to your staff. Staff very friendly and polite and willing to help but had to order from to separate points don’t make sense pls sort thanks in advance. The only thing this will cause is a not very happy customer 3 stars this time hopefully will be changed for next time matthew

We came and I ordered a mixed grill and my partner ordered the new Yorker burger and then 2 kids fish finger meals, The New Yorker burger and kids meals were nice and hot and the speed of service was fast however the mixed grill… the steak was cooked how i ordered it but when I came to eat my chicken the chicken was raw, I shouted over the waiter who was cameron and explained to him that the chicken was raw, slimy and pink he was very helpful and understanding of the situation and took my food to the kitchen to let them know and also informed me that 3 other people have just sent chicken back for the same reason, when he arrived back he says (April the kitchen manager) says there’s nothing we can do as you’ve eaten your other meat to what I explained steak you can eat wether it’s a bit under/overcooked but chicken you cannot as you’ll get food poisoning and cameron agreed with me but the kitchen manager April says there’s nothing that can be done which is shocking to risk customers health and wellbeing and should not be in a position of responsibility so I got the attention of the bar manager( Howie) who also agreed that this should not be happening and was quick to try and help and defuse the situation and gave us some free dessert's for the kids and a round of drinks for the adults which was a nice gesture rather than the one greeted by the kitchen manager, overall 90% of the meals were fantastic but the general attitude of the kitchen manager spoiled the whole experience and wouldn’t not come out of the kitchen to explain the outrages statement that she made basically implying that you ate your steak and lamb so it doesn’t matter if you get salmonella, overall howie (the bar manager) and cameron (the waiter) are a credit to the company very helpful and understanding and don’t deserve to be picking up the pieces for where the rest of the company is not performing

Great entertainment, children friendly also

Food worthy of 10 stars. I'm not sure whether the name derives from a restaurant that was near Fantasy Island about 45 years ago. We were impressed then and impressed now!

Had a carvery here with my wife and daughter the other day, very nice food, but does get extremely busy. They opened at 12 on the day we went, when we got there at 12:20pm, they were already queuing up half way round the restaurant waiting to be served their food, but once I sat down to eat I could see why it was so busy, the food is top notch. You can’t book a table, so check opening times, and get there at opening time or just before they open, to avoid long queues. Also went again before the end of our holiday, just for drinks this time, and our daughter was able to play in the soft play area while me and my wife watched her with our drinks, don’t know any other pubs that have an indoor soft play area, nice touch

We have been coming here for a while & never been disappointed until just now. 5 of us were eating so not cheap the potatoes in the meat pie were rock hard & there was eggshell in my egg. We called a waitress over to explain she said " I'm just a waitress" so we asked to speak to the manager. Another waitress came over & said the manager was to busy and would come over later. We asked to speak to some in charge a lady came & said "what did we want them to do about it, they could cook the meals again but was very busy so it would take about half an hour. We were very disappointed with the attitude and rudest of staff and asked for a refund they said they would do this but have to take the meal back. Tea was already spoilt and we handed our meals back, which were not up to standard. Spoilt our evening & will be a long time, if ever we return.

Tried to eat here today but was told at half past 6 that we had half hour to grab a carvery but only other food available was kids meals. Very disappointed as it was the middle of the week in high season.

It's changed menu gone down hill a bit. Still probley best places to eat in skegness

Food was lovely atmosphere was great

Lovely food! Staff are very welcoming and its a lovely family dining experience

Great food huge portion sizes.not cheap but quality food so you dont mind that ! Clean and a nice play area for little ones .

Excellent carvery the food was 💯 per cent xx

Really good food, fast service, and good portion sizes! We went back again the next night.

Great service and food. Very competitive price. Will definitely be back.

Went here a couple of times over a week, whilst staying in Ingoldmells. Woodys is pleasant, food was lovely. I’d recommend and will be visiting again.

i would just like to say the service was very good today, there was 1 particular staff member that was fantastic with 1 of the members of the public i noticed she was sighing to them which i thought was so lovely, the staff member in particular had ginger hair very long young girl but overall the staff was amazing and i would definitely recommend this place.

Great Sunday lunch with great service

Very nice food at resonal price, inside or sit outside in the sun 🍻☀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

Great bar good beer great music

Place was nice and clean, quite modern. Was not overcrowded. Recommended

Kids get right excited. With all rides

Got me and wife some food never have taste anything as bad 👎

Just had one drink didn't like the place at all

The Carvery was delicious so was the mocktsils.

Can't score food as we didn't have any. But the drinks were OK. Really nice bar staff and atmosphere. Snooker table is £1, and you need to get cues from behind d the bar and put a deposit down to use. Lovely place and close to wear we were staying. Nice play area in the back too.

Fab food. Indoor soft play. Outdoor seating and play area.

Ordered 3 adults and 1 child's meals and was charged for 4 adults but didn't realise until food came out and portion for child's meal appeared somewhat large. Overpaid by £4 which put dampers on us coming again.

I’d like to share this review as we come to chase caravan park every single year. We always come into woodys as we love the atmosphere and the place in general. The service is always second to none. The food is delicious and never had a bad meal. My only concern is the children’s indoor play area. I think of late it’s got bad, when we came this year the members of staff/ staffs 2 young females one with brown hair one with blonde hair, these members of staff just sat there for hours looking into space not watching the children when throwing things around near younger children, no communication and seemed like they didn’t want to be there. We always get a table near the window or the play area so we can watch our young toddler. I couldn’t believe how the 2 members of staff just sat there, didn’t challenge children walking up the slide didn’t challenge children throwing things around. I felt like it was me watching the children. Maybe this needs to change as eventually there will be a bad accident in there.

Went for mid week carvery food was not hot at serving station should be probed or hold at 63 degrees bit disappointed so dosnt get my vote.

We do like to go in woodys bar when our Grandchildren come down to our caravan they love to join in everything so do we like to go in for a drink or a meal the Carvery is a lovely meal Yvonne

Great food in a great atmosphere 😊

Had wonderful carvery on Wednesday so tried menu Thursday. What a disappointment cold lasagna with cold floppy chips complete with bad bits. Sent back and meal returned to me 5 minutes later husbands meal came. been microwaved too long both burned at edges. Peas still cold. Chips revolting!!

Brilliant food, staff are so friendly, lovely clean, fantastic place to come me &my partner we both had a lovely meal

I never moan, but the food was only just warm. We ordered 2 chicken burger meals, one of the plain. They both came out just in a bun. We asked about it and was told that is how it is served. Immensely dry to eat.

Not eaten in here yet but will do so

Very expensive price increase this season (2024) ! £15 for Lasagne. £11 for a baguette. £9 for a jacket spud! Our evening meal for 5 people was £85. Portion sizes have been reduced, prices increased . Carvery is the most expensive in the area without justification. Lovely venue, clean , kid friendly, but I fear Blue Anchor have become way too greedy this season .

Really disapointed as was looking forward to trying this new restaurant. First of all it was very busy so had to wait ad keep look out for a table, then eventually when we did we had to find someone to clear the table of plates and then my mum went and found a cloth and spray to clean it as the staff were running round like headless chickens serving food, and only one memberof staff was taking food orders. On ordering we were told two of our meals would be without onion rings as they had sold out but they werent willing to provide anything else such as a slice of garlic bread or chips, infact there exact words were I dont know what you are complaining for, its only a couple of onion rings! Not really good customer service, especially when food you order is over £70!! We were old 40min wait on food but it was actually 1hour before it arrived, and when food did arrive sausages were missing off the mixed grill and then reallised coleslaw was missing off the brisket beef. The food was actually ok, just a shame about the lack of staff and customer service.

Tuck the little kids for food and so could play food was OK service 5* but the play area was disgusting 30+ kids most of them two big to be in there bouncing all over was not letting my little ones go in there told management just said the a staff member in there when they was 100% not go in there 3 times a year but not no more my kids was screaming as I wood not let them play

Was great place for carvery very busy staff helpful and very quick at clearing away and prices ok

Always go there for Sunday carvery

Don't serve normal menu while carvery is on. Not great for people with eating issues, especially since this fact isn't advertised anywhere on the menu.

Was having a fantastic night bar staff was brilliant so was entertainment how ever was ruined by there security trying to course trouble

Food was great, service was OK aswell. A bit noisy near pool table with kids playing and being loud, apart from that happy with everything else

Decided to go for a meal here on Thursday after looking at reviews on Google. It's a nice modern venue with some old pictures of the local area dotted around with nice decor & very clean .We had popped in earlier to check what time food was served till & came back after an hour in the local arcades. As was the case when we checked in earlier we were greeted in a cheerful & professional manner by the staff who were very welcoming.There seems a decent choice on the menu & we decided on the burger which was described as a steak burger this came with a choice of chips or jacket potato & came with salad onion rings & coleslaw. We choose chips & were all surprised with the portion sizes & quality of the food. The burger lived up to the description & tasted like a quality burger with a nice meaty taste & light seasoning which came in a nice soft brioche bun. The chips were lovely, crunchy on the outside & fluffy on the inside & the onion rings were a good size with a nice crispy batter. It came with a nice fresh salad & a little pot of coleslaw which was just the right size to accompany the meal. Being low season it wasn't packed that said there were still a few people in but this meant we didn't have to wait to long for our food. Three meals & a round of drinks for the three of us just under £45 can't fault it & will definitely come in again next time we're down this way.

Absolutely fantastic and brilliant food and very friendly service with lovely customer service towards the customer 😍

What a amazing carvery we had Sunday couldn’t find anything wrong with the food Best carvery I ever had be back in march for another staff were friendly & helpful too

Lovely and clean, the Sunday carvery was absolutely delicious! After reading reviews, we decided to give it a go. Will definitely return when we are in the area again. The beef was cooked perfectly. Huge portions too.

Very quiet when we went food was amazing great value too great to have kids indoor play inside too

The bar restaurant is spacious. The staff friendly. The food is good. Plenty of parking around the back. Good for families.

Was a brilliant night till 1 of the security guards came over and was rather aggressive and intimidating accusing us off vaping in side the property even though they had seen us go out side all night he was very aggressive in how he spoke to my self in my opinion and the people that seen and heard it seemed like he was just looking for a reason to try and start trouble

Great food very clean, great service nothing g to much trouble portions were big so you won't leave hungry we will be back soon 1

Always nice food here ...the atmosphere isn't too bad for a meal with family and friends but for a night out its not set out too well

Lovely food and drinks, very clean bar, lots of parking

Always a good meal, good helpings, great food, value for money. A seasonal venue but when open we’ll worth a visit.

Went on a Wednesday for the carvery, it was brilliant, really enjoyed it and well worth the money, and staff very friendly

Zombie cocktails best we have ever had. Plenty of staff, carvery excellent.

Location: on the better side of Ingoldmells (quieter and no drunken idiots) Cleanliness: spotless Staff: Very friendly and efficient and all ready for a laugh and a joke Food: Lovely! The home made pie is to die for!! Not the cheapest but good value for money Overall: Will definitely return

First time and it’s been the best food I’ve eaten all week would recommend to everyone

Great carvary,good selection of food and drink,always busy but always managed to find a seat, lovely staff my mum had a walker and was struggling to get back to her seat and a lovely young waitress came to help without asking,

We love woodys for the service and food plus it’s just around the corner from our van

Great location, great food, nice atmosphere, will revisit and recommend for a nice evening meal, didn't get chance to try the carvery on a Wednesday and Sunday but I am sure jts up there with the best based on our menu options. Mixed Grill- world class.

Wow had a carvery today (special on Wednesday 2 4 £18) would recommend the food was 😋

Great place very friendly, The food was a big disappointment, small portions for an expensive price, steak was supposed to be medium rare but was more like very rare. Will not be returning it's ok for a 1 time visit to say you been but there are better options in the area.

Best carvery we've had in a long time very good value for money. Went 3 nights for food on our holiday and each time the food was delicious it's 1 of our favourite places to eat.

We love this place everytime we visit ingoldmells. The carvery is lovely loads to choose from. The kids entertainment at night is brilliant and they even get the adults involved with bingo and music bingo. There is a park outside a little one. And a kids play centre inside where u can let them run round. We love Woody's definitely recommend

We didn't have any food only 1 drink couldn't afford to stay

Not as nice as it used to be. Food is ok but nothing special. The atmosphere isn't the same it just an average pub now.

Prices are ridiculous in my opinion. And isn't pet friendly. 😕

We went to woods bar 3 nights as it was close to our caravan park, you need to get there early as it’s a nightmare to get a table especially when entertainment is on so if you don’t want to have your food at 5-6pm then you may want to go to a local pub or restaurant (maybe in Skegness). We had a carvery on the Wednesday night you can get 2 for £18 and there’s plenty on your plate, now we love our Sunday roasts and this was by far the best carvery we have had in a while! Drinks are a little expensive 2 small cokes and a pint of carling was just over £10, there’s plenty of TV’s dotted around aswell plus a huge screen on the stage, there’s a play area inside which was supervised by lad is 8 and he came back upset as the lady said he was too tall when blatantly they were kids much bigger than mine in there I think they just pick and choose as the one girl who was meant to be supervising was sat in a chair in there on her phone. There’s a park at the rear where you can sit and have a beer while keeping an eye on your kids too.

Food is amazing, staff are great. Placenlooks really nice. Nice outdoor area. Slight mark down as the floor was a bit messy in places although I will definitely be returning. Best restaurant in ingoldmells.

We had chicken burger n chips, scampi and rump steak. 3 excellent meals. Good portions, really good quality. Very filling.

Had a carvery. Absolutely brilliant. Wonderful meal. Staff very helpful xx

Food was amazing, very good service, would be happy to go there again.

Amazing carvery, can get busy on a Sunday, but they also do a carvery on a Wednesday too. Nice friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and a great selection of alcoholic drinks.

We visited Woody's both Friday & Saturday!! The food was absolutely delicious & is honestly some of the best food we have ever eaten!! Hats off to the kitchen staff!!

Been here many times live here so support local businesses, But the food we were served was terrible, brunch no beans no butter, when we informed the restaurant it was slapped down on our table no apology so it's lost a 6 day a week customer 😞😞😞

Would just like to say what a very good meal and service. Would recommend this place to any family 👍

Great food and service even when busy.

We had lovely carvery on Sunday 6th August we all had different meats except me I had turkey which I really enjoyed but unfortunately I was ill the next morning with vomiting stomach pains diarrhoea it had to be the carvery that was the only mael I had that please could you make your staff aware of the food safety hygiene guidelines Many thanks

Mid week carvery two for £18. Meat was tender and a good portion. Good quality veg and choice. Mash potato tasted like 'Smash'. Clean restaurant and plenty of seating. Toilets clean.

A really good family pub . A good selection of drinks. And the food is really good.

Called in at 6:45 with a family of 5 for a meal during the summer holidays to be told there was no food being served after 7:00.. Unbelievable for a place calling themselves a bar and restaurant.. Went to ogradys two mins away who serve food till later so woodys missed out on about £100 worth of custom. Wont be returning to woodys anymore, very poor customer service..

Very nice inside and the food was amazing.

Don't know what's happened, but food here has got so bad! Chips are like pound land oven chips prawn sandwich was like soggy the marie rose sauce was like water steak salad for £13 had 5 little pieces of steak on!!! 2nd time it's happened now not going again for food..

Great pub with quality family foods! Puddings are absolutely out of this world! Great friendly service too and all bar staff quick and efficient

We went for a carvery with our family around 1.30pm (6 of us) and four of us ended up sick. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the staff are friendly but we can't forgive the sickness and diarrhoea that followed our visit, and we know it was this food as its the only thing we'd all eaten the same.

Great place and a lovely carvery on Sunday ³

Ordered food and it took about 5 mins to arrive ,food was great no complaints And price was very reasonable too you don't find many places like this now days 100% going back very soon

Food a bit pricey Sunday carvery you que 45 mins but they do a wed carvery 2/ for $18 great value

Visited for Carvery food was really nice plenty of choice, the kids chicken nuggets are big chunks of chicken not the processed kind. Staff were great lovely place will be back next time we’re down

Food cold then meat is hard coud not eat it not good

Lovely carvery as always always go here when we here
