The best restaurants in Spalding Castle South Holland East Midlands

We went to Spalding on this lovely sunny morning to the market. The wonderful and very special Carillon was playing, ringing out across the market place and we popped into the Café on the Square inside the South Holland Centre for a coffee and a late breakfast. Well, nearly lunch! (Breakfast is served until 12 noon). We both had a breakfast brioche. Lincolnshire sausage patty layered with bacon and topped with a fried egg in a large and very delicious brioche bun. Probably not the sort of breakfast for every day (!) but super tasty for a treat - the food was lovely, the staff were so pleasant and helpful and the coffee was very good too. Thank you Courtney and Mike and Bailey. And it was very reasonably priced. You can sit in this 1st floor café and look out over the market place and people watch to your hearts content. Go on - treat yourself to good food, great coffee and a nice relaxing time in The Café on the Square.

Amazed at the owners of this shop they gave out free food to homeless people over Xmas I was amazed to see this happen if there were more people with hearts like there's the world would be a better place

CJ's is the classic British cafe diner has a nice wide choice on the extensive menu that is very budget friendly the proprietor it's very friendly and helpful what are they recommend for breakfast lunch or brunch you cannot fail to be impressed

In my opinion the best fish and chips in spalding. Well cooked and good size portions.

Our second time dining at Katana and the experience was once again good, with prompt & friendly service. The starters were quite small but nice and the mains we had were very tasty and of a good size. Will be back again soon.

The Lincolnshire Poacher is situated in a nice riverside position and is a charming old building. Although the beamed ceilings and white walls attest to age and tradition, the large areas of bare red bricks go really well with the understated, and almost minimalist modern decor that shouldn’t really work in an old pub like this - but does, and they have achieved a modern look with old-fashioned comfort. Service here was welcoming and very good, and the pub is run by a charming couple. We certainly enjoyed our visit.

Had Christmas dinner at Paceys again this year, couldn’t fault it - value for money excellent food great service from Kylie our waitress. Highly recommended but one warning it would be better to pre-book a table as it is a popular cafe. Merry Xmas to all the staff at Paceys, regards Steve and Lesley

Wonderful coffee shop and restaurant. It is always clean and friendly atmosphere, with lovely coffee and tea. The cakes are yummy and soft - everyone should try the carrot cake (gluten free too!) The coffee is strong but smooth but you can ask for it weaker if you like. Not at all like a ‘charity’ shop of coffee shop - somewhere nice to visit

Why only 2 stars. That's my question. The staff were welcoming and the rooms lovely and warm. Room 28 has an outside balcony, which is nice. Clean and a comfortable bed. I'd personally up there rating to 3. I'd definitely visit again.

Eventually found it and guess what it don't exist

10 out of 10 Penningtons. I held a babyshower here for a friend, and from organising with Helen to Sally and the team who looked after us during the event I cannot fault you. The afternoon tea was lovely for all of us, and you let me take over your conservatory with decorations and games, so we could give our friend a fab babyshower. So thank you all you are a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ team

The best chinese food in Spalding.

We popped in it was a late decision made to eat here on a cold dark evening. Quite a few tables empty nevertheless the hostess had to check with the manager if there was any availability! Hmmm …. And of course there was and we got seated. Waited to be served and waited and waited. Staff here are very un-attentive and like to ignore their Customers it seems. Once we finally placed our Pizza order and the food arrived, it was as expected edible warm but nothing special. Pizza a bit floppy hmmmm would we dare seconds? We did and the cakes were quite firm but tasted ok. Then the SHOCKER The Espresso …. What’s this well we know they are small but this! had the machine broke whilst it was being made or did the waitress have a sip or spill it on route to us?Judge for yourself photo attached. We did laugh though that was the best thing in this Pizzeria that night. Would we go again? Simple NO.

No customer service what so ever only is and another table in there waited nearly half hour for someone to come take starter order never ask if we wanted a drink so got how own. Never ask if we was having carvery and waited a further 15 mins and no one still came so got up to carvery and young girl With glasses on ask what we wanted we said carvery only enough beet for one half people no please thank you. Or is your meal ok. Didn’t even know how to split bill in half. Rude staff Need to work on customer service Will not go back again Scored a two as good was nice hot other then that not good at all

We have had lunch here probably once a month for some year, and enjoyed the food and friendly atmosphere. The view is great, although I find the the chairs uncomfortable. This time there was a new menu. We always enjoy some salad with a panini or toastie or sandwich. However we were told this was not available - all these options are served only with crisps and coleslaw. Hardly a healthy option! So my husband chose a BLT; (bacon lettuce, tomato) ---- evidently they did have salad! We did not eat the crisps. My husband had a cold drink, and I had tea and I asked for an extra cup for him to have a little tea also. Not Allowed! I don't think we will return. There are other pleasant places to eat in Spalding.
