On high recommendation, and keen foodies, We rolled up at the old bakery last Saturday at 12.10 for lunch, were seated, offered menus to peruse, to be told only 10 minutes later that a cookery demonstartion was going on and food ordered in the restaurant would be at least a 30 minutes wait!!! So we left, but duly returned (?)... More

This restaurant has been a favourite of mine for years and my visits to Lincoln wouldn't be complete without a meal here. The food is consistently good, the staff attentive and the atmosphere cosy. There's always an element of surprise and last night it was the Bloody Mary jellies. A taste sensation! In six years I have never been disappointed... More

We had the pleasure of visiting The Old Bakery, Lincoln for the first time just over a week ago, and have been recommending it ever-since based on our experience. We enjoyed a superb, imaginative, tasty and very reasonably priced 3-course lunchtime meal accompanied by a refreshing wine. The staff were appropriately attentive and friendly. A thoroughly enjoyable experience, that we... More

Well, what can I say? No parking at the Old Bakery, and my 'Catch of the Day' fish choice in the restaurant had flown half-way across the world (instead of being caught off Grimsby as I'd hoped), but never mind. There are snug little bedrooms, and wonderful breakfasts! Make sure you ask for the home-made hash-browns, Alan will serve them... More

I love the food - interesting and well put together flavour combinations and beautifully presented. I don't see the problem with portion size (see previous reviews) - this is about good tasty food and you can indulge in 3 courses without feeling overfaced. I also think it's great value. Service, apart from the time of booking, was excellent. It was... More

Having just read the review for this restaurant in the Sunday Telegraph, I felt I had to write about our experience, starter good, main course very poor, cod over cooked, pushed it to one side, we did point this out.....waitress said she would speak to the chef, heard no more about it. Service poor and arrogant......all in all a bad... More

We decided to pop in here for lunch today after reading the menu that was outside. It read very well, and we thought that a two course lunch for £12.50 was reasonable. We were shown to the conservatory at the back of the restaurant by a lovely waitress, and it was full with other diners chatting away. There was a... More

We attended here for a Xmas function. Delicious food but 1 mushroom for a starter (2inches across), blade of beef was small portion with one small scoop of potatoe, 3 sliced carrots!!! Cost £28. Appalling!! More

We have been to the old bakery several times a year for the last six years or so. We would always recommend, and thoroughly enjoyed a very varied menu. We are nor sure what has happened, we ate there yesterday with some of our family expecting the usual good service and menu. It was a very pretentious menu, not much... More
