Caistor Lakes restaurant - Market Rasen

Welcoming to my friend and I and his whippet. Had a seat with a view of the giant koi in the outdoor tank. Nice pot of tea. And tasty gaberdine of lamb with Yorkshire pud which was served in very good time.

This used to be our local restaurant of choice. Sadly not anymore.
The previous lovely menu has been replaced by what I would describe as an American diner menu, burgers, tacos and steak. Nothing like what is advertised on the website.
There was still fish and chips and a chicken Sunday lunch platter option, but that was it for "British" food. Even a pasta dish would have been nice. We opted for the Sunday lunch and found the chicken overcooked and dry.
Service and atmosphere was good. Perhaps the staff would leave mopping the toilet floors until after people have left the building? Or at least dry it off before someone slips on it.

We attended a fish and chips tea on Wednesday teatime. The lady who I took to be the manager was was rather brusque with me when I asked whether we were to order food from the bar or whether someone would come to take our orders, snapping that we were all getting the same. When our food arrived, the fish was lovely, but the chips were just a few scraps. One person on our table had 12 small chips. We wouldn't go back. The manageress needs to realise that we are paying customers, not annoying children.

This is my first visit to the restaurant, I visited here with my friend, I took her for afternoon tea for her birthday.
We also took her little one with us.
Afternoon tea was booked and paid in advance, As this s the requirement for afternoon tea.
The staff where welcoming upon arrival, and extremely polite, the restaurant was warm cosy and clean, you could also smell the food cooking.
We were seated to our reserved table, the waiter came to our table and gave us menus, so we could select drinks.
My friend ordered a latte, I just had tea.
The waiter took our menus away, the lady in the restaurant fetched another menu, to order little ones food from.
She had chicken nuggets and potato tots, when her food came out I was shocked by the quality, freshly made food, not processed like you get elsewhere.
Our afternoon tea was big, I was super happy that there was more savory available on it, so many places do too much sweet.
The afternoon tea consisted of sandwiches, tuna cucumber,tuna mayo, chicken with mayo.
Vegetable quiche, mini pasty, Yummy soup.
Also a little pot of gherkins and cheese so much better than the mundane side salad.
On the next tier where cakes, that consisted of brownie, Victoria sponge, I think trifle although taste was a mix of trifle and eton mess.
Top tier had scones , 1 plain 1 fruit, jam, and cream for each one.
The food was tasty and very filling, the brownie was lush and tasted like chocolate ganache. The scone was quite savory and you could taste the salt in it, I only add a little cream, and not jam as I don't like it on scones really, but that's just a preference.
I liked everything I ate apart from the quiche, again that's just preference my friend enjoyed here's too.
All together the cost was about £41.00.
The afternoon teas are, £14.95 each.
I would definitely visit again in the future.
The staff are lovely and the food is quality.
This restaurant is worth a visit.

Thank you, Ann, for a lovely time, 15th to 18th Nov. Sorry we were so undecided when ordering our food. From 4 adults and 2 well behaved dogs. Food was delicious and plentiful.

If you don't mind cold beans and undercooked eggs for breakfast this is the place for you.You are not even allowed to ask for them to be rectified. I have spent a lot of money here to be told I had to eat my food however it arrives at my table.
It's not a cheap place and it's not my fault the chef cannot cook properly..

Very disappointed considering we only chose to go here as the reviews were really good.

The starters were OK nothing special, while the servers were very polite they did get the order wrong a bit and some items never even came out but again we wasn't overly concerned, it was the mains that were truly disappointing, steaks are at a premium here, one was asked for medium rare the other medium, both came well done. We had waited about 40 minutes for the main so never said anything as we didn't have another 40 minutes we could wait. Even the fries all came out stuck together, it's like when they were in the fryer someone just hasn't shook the basket. We both asked for the same steak sauce and when we finally got the correct ones they both tasted different, one was how we was expecting the other seemed like it was made wrong the colours were even different so unsure how that happens. For a bill of £100 it was very disappointing so just won't return in the future.

I never write a review this quickly. In fact we are still at the table after our plates have been cleared. Incredible food. Truly home cooked. We had burgers and the chicken burger was massive. My partner and I are big eaters and we are fit to bursting! We have cakes to take away!! Beautiful food. Everything fresh, Everything delicious and the service impeccable. Anne was the most attentive host but all the servers were lovely. It's a credit to the area and so nice to have a good place to come to. You won't be disappointed. Faultless. Incredible value for money and highly recommended *
