A lovely little pub restaurant with a warm and inviting atmosphere. I went as part of my Key Grant group, where we finished the day off with lovely food and drinks. The hygiene of the Dirty Bottles was very good, with the tables and floors being pristine. Spacing in the restaurant was good, although the tables and chairs could perhaps be separated a little bit more for ease of access/exit. Lighting was perfect and the cosy architecture made the restaurant feel really relaxing and comfortable. The scampi was a delight and my friends loved their meals as well! Service was excellent and friendly, and staff were very accommodating. Drinks were really nice - my friends stuck to water and Pepsi, but I went for the Oreo shake which was really well made! All in all, a wonderful place to dine out and a great way to wrap up our brilliant day!

Friday 2.30pm. 25 October. Food was poor. I wanted a glass of red wine. Wine list said red wine. No further description of whether it was dry sweet or type of grape. So I asked if I could taste it. They brought me a glass with a small mouthful. My son paid for lunch and didn’t want to tell me until we had left.he was charged £1 for that ‘taster’ which was absolutely unpalatable for me. Sour and unidentifiable by grape. This small act of meanness together with the poor quality food is a no no for me to ever go again. As a further comment had I have known you had charged for that I would have deducted it from the ‘tip’. We also had to ask to be moved from a tiny table for 2 in front of the door which blasted winter cold air everytime it was opened. Also impossible to have more than one drink and a plate on the table. No room for sides. I would have given zero stars if I could.

A really good dog friendly place to enjoy a food with the family. We had a table outside due to being with our Labrador, but we were provided blankets and also heating working to keep us cozy. Very good to enjoy gluten free, they take this seriously with one member of the staff checking twice and confirming with my wife the ingredients of each dish we ordered GF.

I visited the place with my male friend. We were getting weird looks from the clients and one of the guys kept pushing my friend trying to provoke. We ordered at the same time and my friend got served first, he finished with his meal and I still had to wait for mine which was spaghetti meat balls that tasted sour and salty. One of the worst experiences. This happened in 2018 or 2019 don’t remember exactly, but it absolutely did happen at this cafe. I remember the counter, the outside and the bikes. This is a 100% honest review. I’m not an ex-employee, I create web applications for a living and have an absolutely zero gain out of bashing some random cafe for pleasure. The meatballs in tomato sauce was unbearable to eat, as if it came from a can. I was served after my friend finished his food. Guy in a queue kept staring at my friend and pushing him. We felt extremely uncomfortable. Was meant to be a quick pit-stop after hours of driving that turned into a not so pleasant experience and now the owner is trying to fight me lol

Went for a quiz night, had food and drinks before hand. Overall it was a fun night, but there were a few issues. The food was really nice, but the menu is a bit confusing for vegetarian and vegan options. It says the meat version and then vegetarian/vegan options available. For example there's a King Prawn Risotto which says vegan options available, but it doesn't say what is in the vegan option. This means that you have to ask the server about what's in every vegetarian/vegan option. Would be better if there was a separate vegetarian & vegan menu, or a separate section on the main menus. There were no coasters/beer mats on the tables, so the condensation of the drinks kept getting the table wet. Halfway through the night the upstairs area got really warm, and a lot of people seemed to be struggling with it. It was probably only this warm because it was a quiz night and was completely full, but they should have turned on the air conditioning.

I think they're coasting on reputation nowadays, because years ago it used to be an experience. Now the food is disappointing at best - £16.50 for a burger that was small, dry and definately didn't taste or look like it was made fresh. The steak manages to be burnt and tough on the outside while still red in the middle so half eatable and half rubber boot. And..... plastic plates? Seriously? For the ADULT meal?

We visited The Ugly Duckling at Caistor Lakes on Sunday and although it was very busy, we were not left disappointed. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The food came out and it was delicious. We asked for some vegetables which was no problem for the staff in the kitchen and front of house. What a lovely place. We will definitely be back 🙂
