Ye Olde Abbey in South Holland

Just had a gorgeous Sunday lunch, Booking advised as everything is cooked fresh

Great venue, respects current guidelines

Didn't eat, just had a few drinks with friends i meet up with once a month.

Went to see a local event popped in to see if I could get a meal even bar food. Sorry nit serving food today...what with an event on 100yards away? No wonder pubs are closing at such a rate. The other village pub also weren't serving food today but u did get a wekcome and a drink!!

Just a old fashioned pub with that old fashion feel

Not my type of place, it's OK for footy lovers.

Fantastic place and an absolute asset to Crowland. Dean and Stacey are always very welcoming, and the food is absolute top notch. Stu always serves with a smile, and great to chat with. Thanks Ye Olde Abbey will be back.

Amazing pub, very welcoming staff. Allows kids to run around, best family friendly run pub in crowland. Highly recommend

My Wife & myself had the most wonderful Sunday Lunch.From going into pub/restaurant we couldn’t have asked for more service spot on always checking everything was to our liking. As for the Food far superior to other local Roasts dinners. Keep up the good work Dean & stacey. We will return. Julie & Tony

Fantastic place. Worth a trip without doubt.

Beautifully done up, excellent food and good value. Staff very friendly. We don’t go enough

Nice beer garden with views of the Abbey Drinks reasonably priced good selection

Just had a wonderful Sunday lunch at the Abbey. Closest meal to a good home cooked Sunday roast. Also amazing value for money. Highly recommend for a really satisfying meal.

Bar Man was not the most friendly person quite abruptly didn't give warm welcome, will be take our customers to another pub .

Really friendly Staff, great local pub environment very clean and very well laid out.

Great family pub and dog friendly. Sunday dinner is legendary with mighty portions and professional service. 👍

Recently had a Sunday lunch at Ye Old Abbey Hostel. Food was excellent and service very friendly.

Lovely friendly place to eat drink and be merry. Excellent cider. Didn't eat but the food looked spot on and the amount of people tucking in seemed very pleased. Won't be too long before I go back to give it a go.

Friendly pub with great atmosphere and excellent food.

Lovely welcome but not serving food at the moment.

Lovely welcoming and friendly staff with a fantastic atmosphere 👌 x

Great pub and atmosphere. Very friendly ,made us welcome.

Took the family for a roast dinner today and wasn't disappointed, the food as always was amazing, the plates were full, the meat and potatoes were cooked to perfection and the homemade Yorkshire puddings were gigantic! Will definitely be returning and recommending.

The home of Crowlands Armed Forces and Veterans Breakfast Club.

The steak was perfect as always the service was excellent will be going back

Excellent Sunday lunch plenty of everything, beautifully cooked.

Fantastic Sunday roast. Great service as always.

Amazing Sunday lunch. Choice of 3 meats with veg & gravy. Presentation was exceptional. Its a village pub with a big difference - the food. They staff are so friendly and approachble. Highly recommend for a drink or food.

Simply brilliant a true gem 💎💎💎

This place is fabulous! The food is delicious, staff super friendly and a lovely atmosphere! I would highly recommend the pub to all and they do the best Sunday lunch!

Had a Father's day family Sunday lunch . Service was excellent and the Sunday Roast was very delicious. The best Sunday lunch we have had in a long time. The staff are very welcoming. Looking forward to another roast very soon.

Excellent Sunday roast good portions and good value

We chose Ye Olde Abbey to be the venue for the wake of the funeral of my father-in-law. Ye Olde Abbey is perfectly located, only 1 minute walk from Crowland abbey and its graveyard so very easy for guests to move between the two locations. We were really delighted with the service we received from Stacy and Dean. We were able to select exactly which types of food we wanted. The portions were very generous and the food tasted great. They were also very accomodating with special dietary requirements and allowed us to use the dining area for as long as we needed. We would highly recommend Ye Olde Abbey.

Nice local pub, always made to feel welcome

Very good and helpful, highly recommend.

Nice place, always made welcome

Great value and even better tasting Sunday lunch. Plenty of choice and no scrimping on portions. Highly recommend.

Welcoming place, laid on excellent afternoon refreshments for our walking group, will use them again.

Very nice place would recommend

The very best pizzas we have ever had. Also great,friendly,helpful staff. We will definitely be going back.

Great service and atmosphere - highly recommend

Firstly, I am coeliac so difficult to cater for! The Abbey serves Nene Valley draught bitter, all of which is gluten free, so one very important box ticked. In the aftermath of COVID the menu has been quite restricted but my request for a steak dinner was welcomed with the understanding that all ingredients would be gluten free. My wife and I both had sirloin, one well done and one medium rare, both with peppercorn sauce. They were both PERFECT, cooked to perfection and without the need for a steak knife. Washed down with a lovely chilled Chenin and served by Stacy and Dean, the publicans, with a smile. This was, without doubt, the best steak I have eaten in a very very long time. We’ll be back for more soon.

Stopped here on the way back from Crowland Abbey which is just about 100 meters away. Modern pub despite its old fashioned exterior. Loved the cider on draft here - Cold River Cider - absolutely delicious and new to me. Friendly staff helpful with local advice.

excellent service and brilliant selection of drinks

Great pub very friendly and good service

Great selection of drsught beers and ciders as well as multiple spirits. Stacy made us very welcome and we enjoyed the beautiful large beer garden. Will be back to try the food

Excellent service & excellent Sunday Roast

A couple of beers and good banter just another day on planet earth

Dean kindly took a takeaway pizza order for Friday evening family get together.....lovely pizzas and very much appreciated.... lovely pub and staff will be back on our next visit to crowland. Pity he supports Arsenal.... YNWA.

Best Sunday lunch in the area. Pleasant Dining room with a good atmosphere. Highly recommend

Delicious food, friendly staff. Would recommend roast dinner.

Following numerous recommendations from work colleagues we had our first Sunday roast last year. We planned to take my mum for her birthday in December but we were in lock down. Desperate to get back for our second visit we tried to book, but they were full. I rang last night on the off chance and we were squeezed in. Wow! Last visit would have got an 8 out of 10, today's gained 9.5! Nothing to complain about at all. Crackling with the pork, perfectly cooked vegetables, tasty roasts and parsnip. Absolutely fantastic food and service. Can't wait to go again. Keep it up, you're winning!!

Stopped in for a lunchtime drink…….stayed for three!!! Great helpful staff. Good prices. Clean and tidy, especially toilet areas. Will visit again for a meal.

Had a drink in the lovely garden no food being served

Great Sunday roast Wholesome locally sourced food served and plenty of it. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful Really can’t fault the place Will definitely be returning soon

Great setting, amazing service and the best foot long hotdogs I've ever had.

Great pub. Great food and the toilets arent bad either!

Myself and my partner sampled the take away roast dinner with a dessert each from this pub having never eaten here before. The food was second to none! It came pre prepared with simple instructions to follow to heat through for 20 minutes in the oven so you knew that when it came to plating up your meal it was lovely and hot. Whilst there are establishments out there where you take your meal home and plate up straight away I was more than happy to wait whilst my food was “finished off” in the oven for 20 minutes in exchange for hot food. To say I was impressed with the quality of our food was an understatement- it was reasonably priced, fresh, delicious and not to mention very generous portion sizes! This was a much needed lockdown treat and we will certainly be sampling out the pubs food again whether it’s another takeaway roast or (in the future when it’s safe to do so) a sit in meal.

At the moment the food is takeaway, and it is exceptional, excellent covid safe service, superb quality and brilliant value

Again, a great experience from the Ye Old Abbey, Crowland! We had the the Thursday/Friday grill feast takeaway, plenty of meat and sides. Will be ordering again soon 😉😋👌

Great as always Stacey and Dean are looking after everyone by track and trace fogging the pub and distancing tables so help them out by eating and drinking there as much as you can to keep them ticking over during these mad times.

Excellent hospitality and Sunday lunch served in social distance environment. Wheelchair accessible with portable ramp

Would recommend highly, staff lovely, very helpful and efficient. Excellent food, really delicious, perfectly cooked. Will go again.

Book and enjoy Sunday dinner you won't be disappointed and don't make the mistake of a starter you'll be taking home the mains and the beers good

Popped into the Abbey Hotel for a couple of drinks and a sandwich, but on being shown the menu we decided to go for main meals. Scampi and chips / Ham eggs and chips - both delicious, piping hot and served promptly. The large dining room was empty when we ate (13:30) but that suited us fine. Service was good and everything spotlessly clean. We were very happy that proper attention was being paid to Covid security too.

Had a fantastic experience yesterday at Ye Olde Abbey despite of the short power cut caused by the storm and the habitual complainer on the opposite table. The staff were excellent under difficult circumstances and the food as usual was superb. Clearly one customer was having a bad day and decided to take it out on the staff. It was more than entertaining.

Electric on and off during dinner. No candles.Wrong mealsWrong drinksMenu limited and kinda rubbish you get in wetherspoons. No steak or proper meat dishes. No pasta even. But burger and chips or fish and chips they can do.2 visits to the tables by waiters who wouldnt leave you alone yes it's wrong but leave in now. Told get a discount for a complete cock up of a night guess what we didntWorse place I have even been calling themselves a restaurant. I mean would give 0 if could

Excellent food, all home made. Ask for vegetarian menu if required. Can fully recommend.

Beautiful pub. Very clean and friendly place 👌 🙌

The pub was well prepared and we felt safe. Staff very friendly, food lovely and we would come again. Great Sunday lunch!

Thank you for a lovely evening meal, great service and very reasonable. Very happy full customers 😋

Very pleasant experience, sitting in the garden.

Dean and his team looked after us well at mums wake. Buffet was plated up due to Covid restrictions and Dean managed to source us strawberries and clotted cream which was mums favourite. A sad occasion with a perfect end. Many thanks Christine and family.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions dean and Stacey ( on Sunday’s )are only doing Sunday roasts to take away preordered with social distancing measures in place The food is incredible very well cooked and seasoned A great selection of meatsHighly recommend once restrictions lifted hoping to soak up some of the pub and restaurant atmosphere

Even though we are all locked down due to the coronavirus the Ye Old Abbey still provides an integral part of our community. Tracey and Dean never disappoint with their excellent quality of food and hospitality. We as a family just had a fantastic Sunday roast cooked by them on Easter Sunday which we collected at a specific time to adhear to social distancing. As Craig Revel Horwood would say "simply FA-BU-LOUS"!

Food was excellent the staff helpful and friendly the Guinness just right all in all very well worth a visit 😁

Delicious meal today. Hot, tasty and service excellent.

Stopped in for a drink at lunchtime. Local football match just finished and players were served a stew and potatoes. We were offered some at no cost which was friendly and generous. Good prices on the drinks. We also dropped in later that night for a drink after a meal at local restaurant. Very quiet then on a Saturday night.

This was our third visit and the food was lovely. My husband and I had gammon and did not need the steak knives we were given as it was so tender. One person had ham and another scampi and both were excellent.But we were very upset by the fact that we specifically booked the table next to the window as one of our party is registered blind and can see nothing unless she has good, natural light. We were promised this table but when we arrived found it was reserved for a group booking. The young waiter was apologetic and went to see if he could do anything about it but the answer was no. The really annoying thing was that we finished our meal by 2:30 and sat chatting over coffee. The window table was eventually taken at 3pm! We could easily have eaten at the table promised and moved if and when the party arrived. So if you have visual impairment maybe this is not the place to eat as you will not be treated with much regard.Thank you however to the young lad waiting on us, he was very professional.

On a recent trip with some elderly residents from a nearby care home, visit Crowland Abbey we needed tea and a sit down.The Olde Abbey is warm and the staff very welcoming and helpful.Swiftly providing tea and coffee, happy to let the residents sit for a while.Will definitely be revisiting soon.

Warm, welcoming and friendly. A great place for a few drinks in a relaxed well kept environment. Food is amazing and always freshly cooked to order, you won’t leave hungry or without a smile and good value too! I’ve been here many times, from the beer to the decor to the service and the atmosphere, can’t fault it. Thank you to the team at Ye Olde Abbey, Crowland for such a lovely meal served to us tonight. See you all again soon

Just had a fantastic meal here. It was all just perfect! I would defiantly recommend the steak, make sure you have the sauce too it’s well worth it. The steak sauce is made to order and is unique to the Abbey. Despite trying I couldn’t get the recipe! All the food is made to order, you can tell that love and care has gone into the whole experience!! Great portion sizes and real good value too, service staff are brilliant and very attentive. I’ve been going to the Abbey for a while it’s such a lovely place to have a few drinks and it always has a friendly, relaxed vibe! My only wish is that I had dined here sooner! We decided to go after a tough few days at work, we left with the biggest smiles we’ve had all week! I’ll be sure to have dinner here again soon. A big thank you to the hard working team at Ye Olde Abbey in Crowland see you all again soon!!!

Lovely setting, welcoming staff, great atmosphere and good food. Large TV for viewing major sporting events, beer garden and open log fire.

Lovely meal. Delicious treacle pudding and custard. Really lovely staff. Thank you.

The pub was busy, full of Rugby supporters & the atmosphere was good.

My wife and I have eaten here on numerous occasions and never had a bad meal, the food is always freshly cooked and the service is spot on, highly recommended

We have called in here a few times, this was the first cooked meal we had. It was amazing, the best Hunters Chicken I have ever had. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Worth many return visits

Last week, we had a funeral at the Abbey just up the road from this pub. I had provisionally booked a table for lunch for a few people who we thought may want food after the service, but it ended up that there were quite a few more who attended. When the doors of the pub opened at midday, we were ready to get drinks and it soon became apparent that there was around 15 people that were wanting some food (far more than I had booked a table for). I asked if there was any way that they could accommodate those numbers for lunch, which they were unable to, due to another large booking. However, they did their upmost to find a way around it and the chef offered to do a buffet of sandwiches and crisps etc. as an alternative while we were all having drinks. There was a member of the party who was lactose intolerant, and the chef was also able to offer them a separate plate of food, which was great. The staff were all lovely, and a young girl who was actually on her 1st day there, did really well in serving us all. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the team there for being so welcoming and helpful in sorting a very last minute request out, they really went above and beyond to accommodate :-)

Really good food at a reasonable price. Decent beer as well.

Amazing place. Always pop in for a pint or 2 when in Crowland.

A lovely friend family pub.....staff are excellent, highly recommended

A lovely place to eat, staff always helpful, Sunday menu is excellent. You have to book for Sunday.

Smashing place to visit. Olde world atmosphere

Fabulous Sunday Lunch! We visited several times with friends and on family occasions. Always good service - laid back style - fabulous lunch with lots of freshly cooked meat, Yorkshire pudding crisp and dry and enormous, beautifully cooked extra veg huge variety. A lovely lunch. We went recently after a busy Sunday cooking for our local Fun Run from 8-1.30. Very tired so looking forward to our Sunday lunch here. My order a blush rose dry please arrived and looked too pink to be dry as I like it and as I recall my last glass here. I sipped and sure enough too sweet for me. Returning the drink to the bar was reassured this was the usual dry rose. But after saying I could not drink it due to being too sweet was asked what I'd like instead. I asked for Chardonnay. Some time later the lady came and said the manager could not replace the drink as I had tasted it!!!!? How would I know it was too sweet without tasting??? We were told we had to pay for the drink. We sat a while and decided we could not continue with our lunch booking with this attitude. My husband went to the bar and paid the bill expressing we would not want lunch. The lady seemed shocked. We left and went elsewhere. We had made enquiries to bring a party of 20 from our ladies club. This will now not go ahead. So disappointing! A glass of wine causes the loss of a minimum of 22 lunches. Good business???

Very nice pub! Good selection of drinks and snacks, which was great after our long walk that day.

Excellent food would recommend.

My family and I have eaten here several time and chosen a wide variety of food from the menu and have never been disappointed.Eight of us came yesterday for Sunday lunch and chose between us beef, pork, chicken and lamb shank. It was all cooked to perfection. The meat cut through like butter and melted in the mouth. Fresh seasonal vegetables and all the trimmings were delicious. It is a rarity these days to find a pub/restaurant that serves freshly made home cooked food. The dessert menu offered a wide range too.All the tables were filled and it was very busy, but we had excellent service from the young staff who were polite, friendly and professional. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Dean and Stacey for yet another culinary treat in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Grill night Tuesday chose blackened rib eye great choice cooked to perfection make sure you turn up with a empty stomach and pre book

This is about the 4th time that the FATBOYS have been there, usually spot on I had one issue about my steak tonight was a bit fatty and gristly for my liking but still ok happy to still recommend for a night out.

Quick pint after work with friends. All good
