Stacey Lawson and Paul Fields are not only delighted but thoroughly excited to announce the opening of their restaurant. Stacey and Paul sensed something was missing from the Lincoln dining experience. Paul had always had a passion to open up an independent restaurant and as a local girl Stacey recognised that although Lincoln is a historical City and a very dynamic and growing City, there was a clear need for a relaxed restaurant experience that combined history with modernity.

    We've eaten here 3 times now and it's fabulous. The service and the quality of the food is just outstanding and the 3 courses for £22 is another draw for us. Its great value with plenty of choice. Great restaurant and we'll be back again.

    Arranged a post Xmas dinner for my wife , daughter and son in law, food was as expected as we have dined here before but first time for our daughter, they loved it as well, slight hiccup with one of the main meals as 3 came but not the fourth, they gave my wife a free Prosecco and hers did turn up within a few minutes, they were very apologetic. Can highly recommend the blade of beef

    Had several lunches at Lawsons but this was our first evening visit eating from the main menu. We had rib-eye steak and duck. Both were cooked to perfection. Service was prompt but we were not rushed. Overall excellent value for money. We will go there again

    In the middle of a busy Christmas weekend, we had a lovely relaxing meal. The food was delicious and the service very helpful. It was so nice to be able to look out of the window at a very festive Lincoln.

    Always consistent in every department. From the greeting to the departure. A few of our 'high end' hotel restaurants could learn from this delightful bistro.
