The best restaurants serving British food in Thurlby South Kesteven East Midlands

Christmas Eve visit with family and my puppy. I can’t believe my local village pub doesn’t allow dogs in. We arrived and sat down with drinks, only to be told we couldn’t be inside. It surprises me that this place doesn’t allow dogs, when so many other places do. It’s a village pub not the Ritz. This was also in the evening and it didn’t seem to be serving food, as then I’d maybe understand slightly. We won’t be visiting again anytime soon when so many nicer places around.

The staff at the Sugar Mills are always so friendly and helpful. Prior to us arriving, they went above and beyond to squeeze an extra guest in on a very busy night without having to change the time. We were welcomed with a smile and shown to our seats. The waitress was very quick in getting our drink orders and were very impressed with her memory as she didn’t need to write anything down and we had 7 meals plus alterations. Meals were delicious and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was great and nothings too much trouble. It was very busy but the staff didn’t seem stressed at all. My daughter had a lovely birthday meal and we will definitely be coming back.
