This is an old, attractive medieval building on the river, just behind the Green Dragon…read more Unfortunately inside it is a bit run down and dilapidated. In the day it seems to attract families with young children and in the evening older clientelle, probably locals. An old magician called Wally Sleight wanders about in here in the day trying to get customers to buy him a pint in exchange for a trick. Unfortunately there are never any seats out of the riverside but I think (not sure) they have a small garden. Anyway this is another for the ghost guide: Not very exciting I am afraid. The pumps have been known to activate themselves, and ice is thrown around by an invisible hand. Interesting that the Green Dragon, almost next door, has pumps that switch off. Maybe it is the same ghost playing tricks or prefers the beer at the Witch to the Dragon.

The manager then came over and stole our drinks, calling us liars!! We all had valid ID's. He didn't even give us a refund when asked! He just told us to contact head office saying they "wouldn't do anything" - how is that acceptable? Do not go here unless you want rude and quite frankly disgusting service! £30 wasted! The manager then hid in the kitchen and wouldn't speak to us! Go ANYWHERE else!

Within the space of a few days in Lincoln, I must have visited the Cardinal's Hat 3 times. All of these times were great. The staff are friendly, there's some outdoor seating and they pour a lovely prosecco. Now if you like cheese, I suggest the cheese platter for 2. Even though it was almost 15 GBP it was extremely large and it felt like it could have been for 4 people. This place is a great addition to Lincoln and I look forward to returning.

Decided on a lovely June evening to have a drink and pub meal at this location overlooking the…read morespires of Lincoln cathedral. Oh what a mistake it was. The service By the young adults serving was offhand. We chose to sit outside due to COVID restrictions and it was such a nice evening. We ordered two burger meals which were vegi stacker and cowboy. Any decent chef would have not served them as the salad leaves on the plate were very wilted neither of us ate them. Died the week previous, by the look. The burger buns were possibly the cheapest available anywhere. When our food arrived we ordered more drinks. A large Chardonnay and thatchers haze. A wine and beer arrived, order taken by same person, completely wrong. So my advice is to steer clear if you want a decent meal and the drinks you order. It's a shame as it's in a prime location.

The staff were very welcoming on arrival right through to our departure.

You gotta love the age of Lincoln, this building is lovely and like them all is very old. For all of my British mates reading this, yes I know old news!! haha but for us Americans this building is only 11 years younger than our country. It was early in the day so there weren't very many people there. I was met with politeness, open to sit wherever and to take my time. I setup my laptop and had a beer. I thought I would have something to eat and was so amazingly surprised that they had vegan options here! It definitely gave me hope that this was going to be a great trip. The food was great, the beer was great and the service was amazing! It was a great start to my trip to Lincoln, thank you Horse & Groom.
