Neighbourhood gem

Stacey Lawson and Paul Fields are not only delighted but thoroughly excited to announce the opening of their restaurant. Stacey and Paul sensed something was missing from the Lincoln dining experience. Paul had always had a passion to open up an independent restaurant and as a local girl Stacey recognised that although Lincoln is a historical City and a very dynamic and growing City, there was a clear need for a relaxed restaurant experience that combined history with modernity.

I ordered the 10oz rib eye steak priced at £34. It was awful, I couldn’t eat it. Looked like an average steak from the supermarket, I asked for it to be cooked medium rare it wasn’t. It was tough. The steak in colour was grey. The actual servers were not interested and just had no atmosphere in the place. We didn’t pay for the steak as we refused to. We left hungry and very disappointed. Bang a strange food overpriced. Won’t be returning

Visited for my wife's birthday on a Saturday evening. Service and food was very good. The restaurant is lovely, though we were sat downstairs which was very quiet so lacking atmosphere, but overall a very nice evening. I would recommend.

Had lunch there and the food and service was excellent. Glad that I booked a table as it was very busy. I would recommend anyone visiting the area to book for a meal here and enjoy the food. The staff are excellent and should be recommended for the service that they provide.
