The Best Cafes in Lincolnshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Stopped here to get a coffee and so pleased we did. The coffee latte was very smooth and nice and the cafe was clean and very well presented. I'm not really keen on fresh food being exposed to all and would like to see some sort of cover. Coffee was reasonably priced but we also had 2 small pieces of Rocky Road cake and that was a little steep.... £4 each... Staff were polite and courteous and the owner spent some time explaining how they keep their menu fresh because it's based around what they want to put on the menu so the menu is always updated and keeps it fresh for repeated visits as there will always be something new for you to try. Highly recommend a visit if you are passing this way.v

I'm from California and have had lots of breakfast burritos. Their vegetarian breakfast burrito with Hallumi was delicious. I was worried it would be dry or bland without traditional salsa but they have a nice tomato based sauce that addressed those concerns. I've eaten shashuka in NYC and SF and this place made the best one. My husband is from here and loved the full English breakfast with local sausage (I call em Lincoln Logs). Such great staff and bridge views too.

Lovely busy place, tried the biggest breakfast and it was great. Dog friendly inside too, plenty of outside seating.

Went for lunch today, having never been before, and have to say that it was really delicious!! The staff were ever so friendly and welcoming. My mum and I both had a croque madame, which was really filling and tasty! I think it was £11.60 and hubby and my son had a breakfast burrito, which I think was £10.90. My son was very impressed with the mega milkshake!!! It was a beautiful day, and you can sit outside by the lock. Will definitely go back again!!!

Fabulous example of a community hub. Homemade cakes, great menu at very reasonable prices, lovely setting, warm welcome and a community grocery store attached. Can’t fault a thing.

A lovely little coffee shop, nice little menu and not over priced. Friendly staff and I loved the little touches; selling a few local crafts, books on a shelf to read and complementary toiletries in the toilet. Would definitely recommend. Only issue was where to park the car. 👌🏻

Called into this hidden gem after a recomendation from a local. We were out on a bike ride, there was plenty of room round the back to park our bikes and sit out in the sunshine. Very friendly staff, good food and excellent service.

Lovely clean and welcoming place, coffee and cakes delicious.

The Garden Yard is a wonderful place to meet friends or go for a bit of ‘me time’. Lots of little seating area in snugs, such a sheds and quiet corners. The coffee is amazing. Wide choice of cakes. Cheese toasties are highly recommended. And they cater for Gluten free eaters like me

There are so many great things about this lovely cafe. But if you are in the mood for a bowl of homemade soup THIS is your place. I am literally obsessed. Recently had the spiced parsnip and carrot, beyond delicious!!! Everything here is homemade so if soup isn't your bag, there are plenty of other sweet and savoury delights! Highly recommend!

Just what it's called. You sit out anywhere around the garden yard. Various areas including sheds , partial covered shelters and glasshouse sitting. 🐕 friendly fab selection of eats and great coffee beans , atmosphere chilled a regular haunt of mine.

This is a great little cafe in Grantham, (just by Asda). As the name suggests, it's in a garden, with lots of different seating areas, mostly undercover - all very different. They do the usual selection of drinks, teas, coffees and soft drinks, plus toasties, cakes and snacks. It's the perfect place to meet a friend for lunch or a coffee & snack

Lovely, clean, light and airy decor with the odd quirky twists. Greeted quickly by friendly staff. Ordered "The Ross" and was surprised at the size of the meal but were assured that they could arrange for us to take away any leftovers. Served in a timely manner. Food very tasty and hot. Excellent value for money. All staff helpful and approachable. Great relaxed experience and they even had festive toilet paper!

Fantastic, quirky decor with excellent food and very friendly and smiley staff. I found it difficult to choose as everything on the menu was unusual and delicious sounding- in the end I opted for fried celeriac with salad on flatbread. Highly recommended.

Such a lovely cafe. The decorations and atmosphere is amazing. The coffee is one of the best I’ve ever tasted and the staff are lovely. The food is also amazing! 10/10

Central and dog friendly. Spacious and cool deco. Staff were lovely. We had two mains. One was the chicken burger which was well cooked and just what was needed. The other main was the Mac cheese sandwich. It was a mighty sandwich which was more bread than Mac cheese but still tasty and certainly did more than just filled a gap. Would recommend but food choice is a little limited.

I always call in at the cafe on my regular trips to Hull and Hessle. Ideal place for late breakfast after a 2 hr drive over and/or for lunch as part of walking the shore path in either direction. Plenty of seating inside and out and friendly, efficient staff. Ample parking on road outside and excellent surroundings close to the Humber estuary and bridge.

Called in here after getting off the ferry in Hull. A good hot cooked breakfast with plenty of toast and tea. Delicious scones to take home. Very good prices and a lovely setting.

Really nice little cafe, with homemade deserts and good coffee, hot chocolates and milkshakes to mention a few. Nice views with animals and close to the disabled riding place and is located at the beginning of the river Humber walk that joins North Ferriby to Hessle.

Very friendly host and staff, we had vegan waffle and coffee. Would definitely recommend :)

Possibly the best coffee I’ve had in Lincoln so far. The menu revolves around dishes with waffles as the name implies. My breakfast was all well cooked and tasty, but my waffle was cold for some reason. The staff are all really good. Definitely worth a visit.

We had truly fantastic experience! Great food, service and the athmosphere. We were served by Hugo (so says the receipt) and he was very responsive and friendly. Absolutely will visit your place again :) thank you! Ps: coffee was superb, too! It’s a rare find lately

We love this lovely little café. Excellent home cooked meals and friendly service. Patrick always has a smile on his face despite the local council being very unhelpful with small businesses in town.

Such a wonderful tea room, food is scrumptious, staff are very welcoming, and prices are more than fair. Has outdoor seating available, always my first place to visit when going into grantham.

Great location, excellent food, excellent services at a reasonable price.

Lovely place with absolutely amazing homemade portuguese food. And staff is amazing as well. 5 stars for sure ✨️

Nice Portuguese food. Small cafe. Lovely friendly staff

Very good atmosphere 👌 and good barbecue 😋

Very helpful people and very tasty food.

A great walk today so decided to pop in for a coffee in the Ropery Coffee Shop. Met with a warm welcome by Lisa and served a great coffee. About a dozen others in the shop but a real nice atmosphere and Wendy was happy to spend some of her valuable time telling me about upcoming events that could interest me. Also a great programmes board with a great assortment of events. The centre is a not for profits centre so visit it when you can you will not be disappointed.

I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch here. The staff were friendly and there was a very good range of food. On the occasions I've been here the quality of the food has been high and extremely tasty. The specials board is updated regularly too.

We had an enjoyable couple of hours here in spite of a damp & dreary day. The museum is a small part of an interesting redevelopment of the old rope factory. The redevelopment saw the long single story building divided into a series of units with different purposes. There are a lot of artists working from the units with some lovely galleries to peruse as well as a performing space. The top end can be accessed via the Tesco entrance and that's where the cafe is situated. The Rope museum is just between the cafe & galleries. You can also enter from the north end and carparking is free. It was interesting to read about & view exhibits related to the local industry of rope making. Well worth a visit.

Rob was fantastic looked after us from the beginning, balancing a lot of people at once and made sure all needs were met. Cody and bohdi in the pit lanes gave fantastic support and were responsive and alert on circuit. Fantastic day out.

Lovely day out with family. The children (16 & 11 years) had the best time. Good value for money. The food is great. Staff are amazing. They are friendly and supportive. My youngest was scared and they took the time to calm him down. He had a wonderful time after they spoke to him and he gained so much confidence. Great way to enjoy your day and the children learning new skills. Lovely venue, can’t fault a single thing.

Had an amazing time at the Ancaster today! The track was challenging yet fun even in the bad weather, and the karts were in excellent condition. Staff were friendly and professional, ensuring a safe and exciting experience, in particular Rob was a very enthusiastic receptionist and helped with all my queries. Definitely recommend it for anyone looking for some fast-paced fun! I'll be back soon!

Translated Review Best outdoor karting in Lincolnshire with brand new karts. This place has top-notch outdoor karting with state-of-the-art karts.

The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making your visit even more enjoyable. Thanks guys.. 5 ⭐
