The Horse and Groom - Lincoln

Excellent food and nice atmosphere in busy pub. Slightly let down by our reserved table been squeezed in next to a large table of ladies celebrating and a partion glass wall by the door.

Good service. Normally a pleasant environment but on this occasion There were two large parties close to us whose voices carried so well we found it very uncomfortable. My husband turned his hearing aids off but could still hear their conversations. Some soft furnishings or sound insulation would help.

On the whole the food was good, my husband had the pie & mash whilst I had steak. My meal was great & the steak was cooked perfectly. However my husband didn't enjoy his quite as much, the mash was described as buttery but it was anything but this. it seems as though old potatoes were used as the mash was very dry & lump, severely under seasoned with very little taste. The pie was ok, filling was nice but the pastry was quite thick. The staff were lovely & discount was given & also extra gravy was provided to compensate for the dry mash. Would come back to try again & maybe have something different.

Excellent vegan food, beautifully presented and brilliant serve. There's a great selection of food on the menu even vegan wine. The atmosphere was great and. We weren't waiting too long in between each course.

Fantastic food and service would definitely go there again as the menu was hard to choose from as all sounded delish didn't have a pudding as way to full tho bit they sounded lovely as well

We waited a long time to be served and then another long wait for the food. Staff were pleasant and friendly especially a young man who said he was from Limerick. Food was a mixed bag, I had pork it was very chewy and I ended up leaving it. My husband had a burger that he said was just ok. My sister had chicken she said there wasn’t enough of it! Nice environment though and easy free parking.

Perfect evening Excellent service Outstanding food The staff were very pleasant and not overbearing Onion rings are the best in lincoln The steak was delicious We look forward to coming again

Very good service, staff were helpful, food was good, overall a pleasant experience. Just one of our guests was slightly unhappy with his meal, apparently the haddock and chips were not to his taste.

Although it was busy we didn't have to wait long to be served at the bar. After we were seated and given the menu again we didn't wait long for our order to be taken. The staff we helpful and cheerful. Everyone was satisfied with their meal .

Food was gorgeous! Very lovely meal. Service was nice and friendly too. Only thing that let it down a bit was awkward seating. We were jammed in a corner at an angle right next to another table. Had to pull the table out so my husband could even sit down. Didn't understand why they wouldn't space us out a bit more when there were loads of empty tables.

Food was good. Main course was better then the pudding. Staff were very attentive and friendly even though they were extremely busy-would definately go again and recommend. Many thanks

Great food, great service. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. Also biodegradable straws, dog, Egan & child friendly! Would definitely recommend and will be going again!

The Horse and Groom has got to be Lincoln’s top pub. Nothing is too much trouble for the lovely staff, always a great menu and wide choice of drinks and the ambiance is spot on at any time.

Lovely warm and friendly pub, the food was exceptional, great choice of menu, made to feel very welcome, along with our dog, will definitely visit again.

Good fresh food , relaxed atmosphere , car parking , when ordering I was asked if I would like bread , so thinking it was complementary I said yes only to find it was charged for on the bill , it was lovely but we weren’t given plates or napkins to help with very moist garlic bread and dressing , consequently messy sticky fingers .

Came for a catch up with friends for dinner. Lovely food, attentive staff and nice atmosphere. Thank you for making our evening a success. Would recommend

Arrived a little early but that was no problem. Ordered drinks to start. The ale was really good. Then ordered food (mains only). The waiting time was fine. Food was excellent. I had steak, wife had a veggie. Service was very good.

Excellent meal and service. Would highly recommend. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Very pleasant atmosphere. Will definitely be back again in the near future.

Very enjoyable evening,food excellent, six of us visited & everyone rated the food, staff very friendly & efficient, the men particularly enjoyed several pints of Doombar beer, only downside was noisy children

Lovely food and atmosphere. Staff all pleasant and friendly and cleared tables quickly after finishing. This was our first visit but will be returning very soon.

Had the Sunday lunch, roast beef which was very nice and good selection of vegetables. Price was reasonable and will definitely book again. Pub had cosy atmosphere.

Excellent food and service (the Yorkshire s were amazing) . The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Beautifully set out and very clean pub.

Good selection of dishes, enjoyed my starter from the specials board. Main meal was very nice and a good size portion. My son enjoyed his child's meal. Good service and I will be back soon

The meal was excellent, well cooked and extremely tasty. The service was superb and we were constantly asked if everything was to our satisfaction. we were made to feel welcome.

Beautiful meal it was very well presented, and was very tasty, staff were so friendly as well, we could not have asked for for more....

Very nice Sunday lunch. The portions were of a good size and really delicious. The staff were attentive and the pub has a really cosy feel to it. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back

Went in on Vegi/Vegan night. The options were great and the food was delicious. Nit to mention that the service was quick and efficient and the staff were lovely

It was nice but kids pudding only ice cream and charged £4.50 for I think.is extreme. The sunday roast was great though. We got charged for the children's juice that was supposed to come with kids meal.

Either the chef has changed or the supplier but unfortunately the steaks were not up to the usual standard . Place and service still great .

Great food, with different specials every night, prices are not expensive because of the quality of the food. As well as nice and friendly service.

Nice food but the menu is very small albeit 2 more specials on the board, The staff are fantastic and friendly and efficient We had two roast dinners and all very delicious BUT the meat was the smallest item on the plate. If you are loosing weight or not really into meat then great if not the meat was a little on the stingy side sorry and we both wanted more meat. I think the huge Yorkshire pudding could be less and more meat!

Friendly place with home cooked food . Catered well for my allergies - amending dish to suit. Would happily visit again if in the area.

Loved the food at this pub, the fish and chips were really tasty and well cooked, my husband had the burger and said it was nice also. The cherry bakewell was fab. Good food and wine, nice atmosphere. Would happily come back.

Great food and friendly service. One of our favourite restaurants in Lincoln always make a point of eating here when we visit. Never been disappointed.

From the minute we walked into the place, we were treated perfectly Staff were friendly and very efficient, the food was excellent, all 6 in my party enjoyed the experience. Keep up the good work, your onto a winner, thank you for helping make our weekend in Lincoln very special, we will definitely be back. 😁

Lovely Sunday lunch. Great staff and excellent service. Will be returning.

Good range of ales. A good range in the menu. Good service. Medium price range. We had an enjoyable evening and would go again quite happily.

We were a group of 6. The table was ready for us & we were looked after beautifully . There was just a delay with the chips that didn't arrive with the sandwiches otherwise everything was lovely. We will be back.

Not sure they were expecting us even though we had pre-booked, as the table had to be set. The staff were very pleasant. I choose Sunday roast beef and I did eat it all but it wasn't the best roast I have ever had. There was not much meat and it was the sragg ends of the joint and the roast potatoes and stuffing were very hard. To be fair I probably made the wrong choice being it was 5pm when we sat down. The 3 other meals were good. Presentation was good and it was nice not to be rushed. There was a good selection of drinks and the overall facilities in the pub were good.

Good experience and great atmosphere in the restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff coped well in what was a very busy Sunday lunch time. Would happily go again.

Limited menu choices and not great value for money. It was my third visit to the horse and groom, shame to say i will not be returning

Nice meal and good value for money. We went quite early si it was quiet and private

Very cosy atmosphere. Great friendly service. Could be a Bit more generous with portions. Especially the starters and vegetables with the fish dish. The people who had fish were still hungry even with a starter before the main.

Had a lovely meal hete . The staff are very attentive and friendly this is definitely one of my favourite venues for a Sunday roast. Highly recommend

Service was great, very pleasant lady showed us to our table and took our drinks order and recommended a cocktail. Food arrived in good time and was very tasty. Nice ambience in the restaurant. We would return.

Extremely friendly and welcoming staff, a good variety of dishes on the menu and the food that our party of five ordered was delivered in good time and piping hot, it was also really tasty, well cooked and presented nicely, all this after we were told that there may be a delay as they were a chef down. Sadly I was nominated driver so couldn't sample any of the excellent ales on offer but seeing the beers being taken to other tables I'll make sure that we book somewhere to stay for the night. Only slight negative was that I thought the desserts were little on the small side, but I'm a little on the greedy side when it comes to puddings. Overall we had an excellent lunch and really looking forward to eating (and drinking) there again, and a huge thank you to all the staff.

Great service, lovely food, and definitely somewhere we'll return. There was a good selection of appealing dishes on the menu that we're keen to try, and if the standard of cooking is consistent, it'll be sure not to disappoint.

Every aspect excellent! Welcome, efficient service, great food - what's not to like! Valentines menu really good value too - thorough recommend for a meal out.

Fanstastic Sunday lunch as always. Good quality beef, plentiful veg and potatoes, homemade Yorkie pud and plenty of gravy. Starter a little overpriced but mains and pud were good value for money. Will keep on coming back!

Excellent meal and service despite a busy night, both courses were well presented and taste matched. The Horse & Groom is a very good pub and we will hopefully visit again
