One of the goals of our getaway to The North (the Midlands are North if you live in London) was to…read morehave scones and clotted cream. Since I wasn't sure of the little villages around us, I gave Mr. Snarky two options...Nottingham or Lincoln. He decided on Lincoln. When we arrived I noticed a boom in cafes that were now opened and noticed a couple of changes. Of course to my delight my favourite tea room was open again! As we approached though, I did notice a new name and a remodel of the inside... This worried me a bit, but the menu looked the same, so we decided to go in. The waiter was a cheeky fellow, but very nice. We both decided on the sweet Afternoon Tea...yes they have a savoury Afternoon Tea. Mr. Snarky had the Ham Sandwich with Plum Chutney and a slice of the Chocolate Fudge Cake, in addition to the fruit scone that comes with. I chose the Tuna Sandwiches and a slice of the Carrot Cake. The tea comes in the original patterned china that the old Steep Hill Tea Rooms used, but they now use bags of tea... no more loose tea and tiny strainers :(. The Afternoon Tea Platter came out looking magnificent, but with the wrong sandwich for me. The portion sizes were quite large so if you are thinking you should have lunch first, don't... have Afternoon Tea for lunch. Mr. Snarky went to let the staff know that they had given me cheese sandwiches instead of tuna. They apologised and brought out tuna, but told us to keep the cheese, although Mr. Snarky would be the only one able to partake given my intolerance. They don't give a choice of scones anymore...so fruit it is. And you do not get a small container of clotted cream that is so thick it spreads like butter. You now get a large , single serving of Rhodda's clotted cream...but it is so liquidy that it gets a bit messy. The scone was lovely and the sandwiches were quite big...not dainty at all. Mr. Snarky's Chocolate Fudge Cake was absolutely lovely and so rich. My Carrot Cake was moist, but lacking in some spices, making it sweet, but a bit bland. They do not take cards, cash only and make sure you have exact change because apparently they do not have much change...according to our waiter.

Oh, The Cheese Society, how I wish I could charter my own little plane right now to fly across the…read moresea and sit in the warm of your cozy cheese-centric cafe. Of the many eateries my husband I tried during a two-week trip to England, The Cheese Society stands out as one of the best. Tucked at the bottom of Steep Hill in Lincoln, it's part cheese shop, part cafe, fully lovely. I had no trouble finding a seat at a communal-sized table in the middle of the store on a weekday for lunch. The cheese-monger working behind the counter came by several times while I was enjoying my meal to ask if he could "ply me with cheese" - the answer was always, without thought, "yes!". He was so kind and incredibly knowledgeable about cheese. The menu is fairly small and - you guessed it - completely centered around cheese and all its glory. I had a cheddar & herb scone which I won't stop dreaming of any time soon, which was served with a slice of Godminster cheddar and butter on the side. I have since had Godminster flown across the ocean to my front door. Being a cheese glutton, I also ordered the Lincolnshire Rarebit, their spin on Welsh rarebit. It was also utter perfection. I washed it all down with a refreshing bottle of a crisp, dry local hard cider. Take me back!
IIIIIII love this place…read more It's no secret that I ruddy love cheese, and this place has a shop and restaurant. Can you really base an entire menu on cheese? I hear you ask. Well, in one word, yes. It is quite likely, that you will have to wait, but these guys are aware of their popularity, and they have comfy seats where you can wait, and have a glass of wine if you fancy. Varied menu, with gluten free options, though the gluten free bread was a but disappointingly cake-y. I've been here three? times now, and I've never been disappointed, though with that much cheese, do be fully prepared for a food coma, and maybe gout if you get addicted and come here everyday. The shop is also great, we've had many a floor picnic which we have supplied from here, as it's far more polite to collapse with a food baby in private!
Melanies restaurant prides itself on everything being made on-site with local, quality ingredients…read moreand this is more than evident in the quality of the food. Even though it hasn't been open long, Melanies has fast established itself as the favourite eatery for the Louth branch of the firm I work for, and with good reason. Prices are excellent for the quality and quantity of food on offer and the layout and lighting in the restaurant make it a really pleasant dining experience, for either lunch or dinner.
EXCELLENT MENU - SERVICE - FOOD…read more I read in the GOOD TASTE magazine that Melanie's Restaurant was the winner of the Tastes of Lincolnshire's TASTE OF EXCELLENCE award. This inspired me to look on Melanie's website. The website itself is impressive in design, content and concise facts which include the various menus. I therefore decided to telephone Melanie's and left a brief message on their answerphone. Within a couple of minutes Aileen, the owner, returned my call and duly reserved a table for my party of three. We were greeted most politely and professionally by a member of staff and then Aileen introduced herself to us. Top marks so far! We chose our meals from an excellent menu and were shown to our table. We each had a three course meal of differing dishes and were totally in agreement that everything was of an outstanding class. We regularly dine out and have for many years , we know what 'total excellence' means. We were delighted to meet Stephen, the joint owner and chef, after our meal who enthused about his passion for food and his beliefs on how it should be sourced, cooked and presented. Top marks in every category 5* Excellent value for money Excellent menu Excellent service Excellent food Overall, Melanie's exceeded our high expectations Thank you to Aileen and Stephen and Staff - We will be back soon
