Magpies is situated inside a terrace of 200-year-old cottages, with decor of duck-egg blue and drapes over the bay windows. The guide praises its “enjoyable savoury courses” and suggests completing your meal with one of their wonderful desserts.
The guide says of Harry’s Place: “Now in its fourth decade of operations, Harry and Caroline Hallam’s place retains the 1980s ethos with which it began. The short, hand-written menu has been built of long-standing dishes honed to a pitch of straightforward but effective refinement.”
Labelled a “traditional pub” that offers “poshed-up pub grub with carefully considered dishes”, the Pig & Whistle at the Healing Manor Hotel even has a menu for dogs, justifying their dog-friendly tag.
“This Lincolnshire village inn has come up in the world,” says the guide, championing its elegant interior decor and attentive, friendly customer service.
Ivano and Tracey de Serio’s restaurant on Burton Road in Lincoln is described as “homely with the feel of a farmhouse kitchen” in the guide, which boasts about The Old Bakery’s “comprehensive” five-course taster meals.
According to the AA guide, Washingborough Hall Hotel “delivers all you would hope for in a Georgian man turned country house hotel. The smart dining room exudes quietly understated class.”
The Advocate Arms in Market Rasen is “broadly modern British, with some invention combinations and plenty to satisfy any traditionalists.”
Owner Pietro Catalano’s restaurant “combines the best of Italian hospitality with a touch of boutique swagger”, hailing from Sicily to open San Pietro in a former windmill.
The updated 19th century inn is “a popular stop not only for birdwatchers and dog walkers, but those seeking good bistro-style food” says the guide.
Situated in The George Hotel of Stamford, the Oak Room restaurant does what it says on the tin. “The oak-panelled restaurant is a magnificent room with an old-world feel, and its menus are steadfastly traditional too.”
