The Old Bakery Restaurant With RoomsThe Old Bakery restaurant (and rooms) in Lincoln’s cathedral quarter is an award-winning establishment and it is on the rise. The dining rooms are a characterful combination of restored Victorian bakery and modern style blended with aplomb to create a smart casual ambience in the rustic style. Passionate, talented chef Ivano de Serio uses the freshest of ingredients, nearly 90% from local sources, to create truly inventive international cuisine, complemented by an astounding cheese board and global wine list. Even flour for the breads is stone ground from the traditional windmill around the corner. Soon a new extension will cover the herbery, creating an indoor garden space with Victorian wrought iron and glass. Inspectors have tagged The Old Bakery ‘one to watch’.
The Old Bakery has been named in the ‘Top 100 Finest Places to Stay in England’ as one of five establishments to be nominated in the 'Foodie'
section by the Sunday Times Travel Magazine.

Tootsies - LincolnTootsies sits among the stylish bars and eateries of the bustling Brayford waterfront, one of the Lincoln's liveliest areas, adjacent to the university campus. High-ceilings and big windows directly overlooking the water make this a modern, airy space, while lovely staff and a relaxed crowd create a cafe-culture atmosphere. Tootsies is where people - especially young families - go when in the mood for a decent burger. There's nine to choose from. Perhaps most popular are the all-American mains: the combo (rump steak, baby back ribs, chicken skewers, homemade green coleslaw, £14.95), and the medley (BBQ chicken skewers, half rack of baby back ribs, coleslaw and corn on the cob).
