The best restaurants serving British food in Horncastle East Lindsey East Midlands

We have already been here twice since moving to the area in October 2024, once in February as a couple with our dog, but previously in November as a family group of 5 people. Both times have been excellent. It is a really quirky place with a great atmosphere and excellent food. It is great that they offer GF options, and our Jack Russell, Jess really rates the sausages!

Lovely little restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly and attentive staff . The food was beautifully cooked and presented. A memorable night. I doubt this culinary experience would be beaten by any establishment of its type in Lincolnshire.

Inviting, friendly and elegant. Magpies is fantastic. Friendly service, fantastic food, an extensive and interesting wine list. Their menus are so well thought out. You'll always find something for all tastes. I had Eel for a starter, Rabbit for a main and wonderful Sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Every course was on the money. As a non drinking designated driver you are well looked after too with plenty of Alcohol free options. We're booked in for Xmas as we don't want to miss out lol

Waitress poured hot coffee into my lap and ruined my trousers. Customer care extended to offering me a piece of cake (which I refused). I guess I should have sued for compensation. Will not visit them again and don’t recommend them to other customers.

went in last night for a proper pint of pump pulled Batemans Ale not the stuff in bottles .. could not believe they had no real ale for sale Walk out disgusted

Stayed on the camp site. Made to feel very welcome. Had a superb meal at the pub. Service and food was excellent and such a beautiful bar area to relax in afterwards. Can't rate this place enough. Will definitely return

Had a wonderful 2 night Christmas break, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, great rooms and food, this was our 2nd Christmas stay and we will definitely be back, thank you to all the staff for giving up their Christmas for us

Unfortunately this is not the chippy it once was. I know the owners now have Sunny’s and The Mermaid and prices have rocketed and standards have plummeted. Stopped for fish and chips last week at lunchtime and they were greasy, the batter was inedible and the large portion of chips were tiny and cold. Can’t continue to use these places until the standards improve.

Best fish and chips I have ever had at resonal price ,pensioners special £7.50thats a great price ,very clean lovely cafe and toilets friendly staff wil call in again soon

We went specifically to this venue for breakfast. We ordered different breakfasts and made some changes to one of them with the helpful counter staff. The tea in the tea pot was cold and we took it back for a replacement hot tea pot. The breakfast was brought to us by a member of staff who did not smile or speak. Having ordered extra well done bacon we were surprised to note that it certainly hadn't been even well done. The plates were cold and so was half of the breakfast, the rest of it cooling rapidly. The toast and prepacked butter were placed on the top of the breakfast and we had to use our fingers to try and get them off the top, even though there was nowhere to put them (have they never heard of side plates)? All in all, very poor. Customer care is clearly not a priority.

Excellent friendly service, eggs perfectly done, lincolnshire sausages (the best), good coffee. What a great start to a busy day

Took 15 minutes to reach the front of the queue of 5 people, not enough staff on duty. Staff advised against purchasing a mince pie @ £1.50 each as they thought they were too expensive. The cakes looked nice but at £4.50 per slice were too expensive too.

Enjoyed our coffee. But the shop looks like it cold do with a Deep Clean. Every where looks dirty/ dusty & floors awful. No spoons, girl didn't know where they had disappeared to. Shame on shop for me to take visiting friends to.
