Lincolnshire Arms Hotel — Restaurant in Melbourne

I went for a meal here with family after a lovely day. I have been numerous times before and never been impressed with the limited vegetarian options or service, and this time didn’t disappoint. I ordered and even pointed to the first option on the menu which was the eggplant parmigiana. The blond woman taking the order seemed to be very distracted, busy and exhausted. When I asked her if it came with vegetables or salad, she said no just the meal, so I ordered a side plate of vegetables. Then she proceeded to ask me if I wanted vegetables or chips on the side. When i told her she had just said it comes alone, she was rude and denied saying that, so i said ok I’ll have vegetables as a side and canceled the seperate vegetable order i had just made. When the order came, it was a chicken Parma. Then I kindly told the waiter that I ordered the eggplant Parma, he seemed confused and walked away with no apology. The blond woman I ordered from then came rushing over to the table with the chicken Parma and aggressively told me I definitely ordered a chicken Parma. I didn’t want to involve the people I was with, but I was very shocked by the way she spoke to me, so I said I’ve been vegetarian for 25 years and I wouldn’t have ordered chicken. She huffed and puffed and raised her voice, telling me again that I had definitely ordered the chicken, and it took another 40 minutes for my meal to come. By this time the people I was eating with had finished their meals. The eggplant Parma was 80% zucchini and absolutely awful, they’d obviously run out of eggplant. It was covered in a dry tomato sauce and hard breadcrumbs and something else I couldn’t make out. It tasted like a frozen meal that had been re-heated in the microwave numerous times or left on the oven too long. I received nil apologies, and was aggressively accused of ordering the wrong meal and treated like I put them out. I WILL NEVER RETURN TO THIS...

During my recent visit to this pub, I was thoroughly impressed with the overall cleanliness and upkeep of the venue. Every area, from the dining space to the bar and restrooms, was exceptionally well-maintained, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The establishment clearly prioritizes hygiene and presentation, which enhances the overall experience for patrons.

In terms of pricing, the pub offers standard bar rates, making it an accessible and fair option for individuals looking to enjoy a drink or meal without excessive costs. The menu and beverage selection were well-curated, catering to a range of preferences while maintaining affordability.

Another standout aspect was the interior design. The décor was modern and tastefully updated, creating a stylish yet cozy ambiance. The combination of contemporary furnishings and thoughtful layout choices contributed to a pleasant and enjoyable setting, whether for a casual outing or a more social gathering.

Overall, my experience at this pub was highly positive. With its clean environment, reasonable pricing, and updated interior, it stands out as a well-managed venue that prioritizes customer satisfaction. I will certainly be returning and would confidently recommend it to others seeking a quality...

I visited this venue as a guest to help celebrate my good friends 40th birthday. The bar man in the tab sports bar was the only high light of the night. My meal was pretty much un touched and un eatable. I only ate the chicken on the plate and pretty much left the rest and moved it onto another table. The staff member who picked up the plate saw very clearly that nothing was touched on the plate but never bothered to ask me why I had left'd so much behind. After spending almost $1000 on drinks on the table combined not 1 single staff member had the effort to call last drinks for us, only to go to the bar to purchase drinks and get a cold reply in , Sorry bars closed, it's managers call. I said to this bar man who really at the end of the day couldn't care less. I said after spending so much money in this venue this is how you get respected and treated. I'll never step foot in this venue again and I'll be mentioning this also to all my family and friends. Toilets were filthy, food was very poor and ordinary, volume of speakers to loud. Very very poor effort on venues behalf. Wish we had gone to another venue. Never again will spend a cent...
