The best restaurants in Bourne West South Kesteven East Midlands

Abouslety brill food the taste was so fresh chicken was nice and soft I will defo be back again to try some of the set menu keep the good work

There isn't another place like Hygge coffee house in Bourne! The most charming and such a cosy spot for a "slow down and enjoy" moment. Will be coming back and spreading the word!

This deli shop sells local farm produce and snacks to take away. Got our lunch and meal deal here with the hot item being a cheese and onion pasty. It was delicious and how a pasty should be. The filling is a lovely mix of mashed potato, onions and cheese. Even from the first bite, you can tell quality ingredients when into the pasty. The pastry was crisp and dry, the cheese and onion made their presence felt. The pasty has been properly filled out with mashed potato and doesn’t feel oily like cheaper pasties. A great lunch stop if you’re in Bourne.

I regularly go to The Little Teapot - it's a lovely little teashop, with homemade scones, cakes, and brownies, as well as a selection of savoury food. They also do a delightful afternoon tea, and have started doing freshly made soup. There's many types of tea available, and the coffee is really nice as well. At my most recent visit, I tried their new Hot Chocolate Bomb - the hot chocolate powder is chilled in a ball with mini marshmallows and covered in chocolate. When you pour the steamed milk on it, the ball opens and the contents start mixing - kids will love it.

We hadn't been out for a while, so decided to go to The Six Bells, that always had a good menu in the past, if a little on the more expensive side. Drinks: I ordered Ghost Ship 0.5% from the menu, only to be told there wasn't any. There were only lager type alternatives. Former beer drinkers generally don't especially like lager. Also, it should be born in mind that close to 100% of diners will have driven to the venue. So, not a good start. Having previously had a very good haunch of venison at another venue, that I was told that I would have to wait for, I ordered the venison at the same time as our drinks. The venison and half rotisserie chicken arrived minutes later. The venison had clearly been pre-cooked and warmed up. It didn't look that inviting and was on a cold plate. Some of the accompanying vegetables were overcooked (eg broccoli), others undercooked (three mini carrots sticking up in the air!) The slab of 'pommes anna potatoes' was the worst kind of potato, so I pinched some of my wife's chips. As the meal progressed, the chips were the only warm item of food. The venison and 'pommes anna' were particularly unpleasant as they became cold. The cold plate, plus sitting in a draught (indoors) made the whole main course experience unpleasant. My partner's chicken came with 'dressed leaves' = a massive amount of lettuce - far too much to eat. Again, on a cold plate. Wouldn't it be more sensible to have the chicken and chips on a hot plate, with an accompanying side salad. She did however, enjoy the chicken - which incidentally quickly became sold out. We asked for the sweet menu, only to be disappointed with the selection. We decided to call it a day. I gave the relevant feedback and £5 was deducted from the bill. Recently, my wife had an operation and this was supposed to be something of a celebration in getting out at last! Since that 'Op', I have been doing the cooking. Even I WARM THE PLATES.

Very nice Gurkha special mix Grill and lamb momom

We popped in for brunch and enjoyed drinks and a snack. Delicious home made scones and friendly service. We will return.

Enjoyed a wonderful authentic Keralean meal tonight. The food had so much flavour. Great service. Will definitely be back. Highly Recommend.

We had a takeaway from Sassis on the11/04/25 it was by far the best takeaway we have had in Bourne since we returned 15 months ago. We have eaten at most of the restaurants here in Bourne during this time and they have all been rather underwhelming including 2 or 3 visits to Sassis under the previous management these were perhaps the most disappointing as while the food was pleasant enough as far as we were concerned it was just above average Chinese food. We went to Sassis on Friday as we had seen it had changed hands and were keen to give it another try. Our first question to the new owners was do you do jungle curry and we we very pleasantly surprised to hear that they could do this item so we ordered this with another off menu item and hoped to be pleasantly surprised. I got home with our order and opened up the dishes and was immediately pleased to see the food looked and smelled exactly as I was hoping for. However when we actually got down to eating it we were blown away it was not just the best takeaway we have had in Bourne but one of the best meals we have enjoyed in a very long time. We cannot praise the new owners enough for the excellent food we enjoyed. This is Thai food as we know it and have eaten at many Thai restaurants in the past. We will be regular customers in the future.

a few stains on the bedsheets, but otherwise was a lovely visit

We visited as a family with two children this evening for the first times Food was fabulous, such authentic Italian food, children’s portions were huge Staff were so friendly and attentive, nothing was too much for them Will be back soon

Breakfast par excellence! Mum and myself went for breakfast today. It was cooked with care (eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine). The poached eggs were just right and beautifully presented. Worth a big mention is the friendly and efficient serving staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you!

Our family has been dining at Montaz for almost a decade, I’ve never been disappointed by them. We visited in January to celebrate my mum’s birthday on this particular visit. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, they gave my mum a small free bottle of fizz and allowed us to serve our own cake and lit the candles for us. Always enjoy the food, love the set menu and find it good value for money. I would thoroughly recommend supporting Montaz whether it is via takeaway or dining inside!

Have visited the cafe many times. always had great a experience. We order cakes from time to time to have at home, always the best quality and great prices. next on the list is to have the afternoon tea which looks amazing. can not speak highly enough of the staff and the food. Dave Nutt.

This takeaway is magic. I tried it a few times years ago and it was good but I always preferred the competition in the town. Been ordering from here recently since moved close to it and blown away every time. Excellent value for money and brilliant food. The chicken curry is one of the best I’ve ever had, proper thick, good quality chicken and tastes great. They do cash and card which is helpful. Super friendly staff, greeted by a young lady with a massive smile on her face. Do yourself a favour and order from here for a change if you haven’t already. You won’t be disappointed.
