The best restaurants in Abbey Lincoln East Midlands

A proper drinkers' pub. Very welcoming to dogs, regulars, visitors (including boaters). Excellent beer and friendly staff and customers.

Some of the best chicken balls in lincoln! The sweet and sour isn't sharp. Never had an issue with this place and the home made BBQ sauce from duck with chips tastes delicious!

Good music tonight. Friendly staff.

Good coffee and choice of cakes, other items always look well presented. It is a bustling atmosphere but not a lot of room to manoeuvre.

We were served by Tammy who was polite and timely with service, food was delicious and good quality. 2 4 1 cocktails deal reeled us in as we weren't planning on having alcoholic drinks with lunch. Overall faultless experience!

OK so my partner and I came here a few weeks back for the first time and just had a coffee. Cant fault this at all, staff were lovely and the coffee was great and the place is really clean and nicely decorated. So we went back this week and thought we'd go here for a date lunch as we love Italian food and wine. The menu options were not great to be honest. We were expecting lovely homemade Italian bistro food but it was mainly French, omelets and sweet dishes. There were no lovely Italian breads, oils or olives even. The food we did ask for we were told was not available so we thought OK, let's just have fries and a drink. Couldn't believe it, it was so quiet and it was lunch time, only to be told there were no chips. Really disappointed, we really wanted to like this place as the coffee was awesome but the food was just a major let down unfortunately.

Enjoyed a taster menu cooked by the next generation of up and coming chefs from the college

Good pub slightly off the beaten track but obviously popular. Popped in for drinks on a Saturday evening and was perfectly satisfied with beer, service and ambiance. There was a band on which made it a little bit crushed at the bar but we still got served quickly and efficiently.

Excellent breakfast made with quality ingredients. Definitely going back again. The lunch menu looks good too, plenty of choice.

The most stunning freshly made cannoli I’ve ever eaten! Service was absolutely impeccable. I popped in after seeing cannoli mentioned in the window, there weren’t any in the display case so I was about to leave disappointed when the server asked what I would like, I said cannoli but there weren’t any, to be told how many would I like? They make them fresh throughout the day and we’re making another batch right then and could make some exactly how I’d like them! I ordered two and while k waited the gentleman gave me a little bit of another dessert they had which was divine (yes I did take some home). I had just eaten lunch so I was kicking myself as they had an amazing array of arancini, pizza slabs and cured meats available for savoury tastes. They even had a vegan arancini which I was very impressed by! While I was there several Italian construction workers visited for their takeaway lunch, so it is obviously popular with the local community and I can see why. I can’t wait to go back and have a proper lunch there!

Visited with Mum. Good food, warm and welcoming host and environment. Always enjoy coming back to this place.
