| an attempt at a trendy, modern bar in the new retail area around the wharf. quite small for a jdw house. 2 levels. downstairs bar. upstairs dining. excellent view across the wharf from the upstairs window seats. the usual jdw menu, but only 2 cask ales on, abbot & ruddles. the abbot was in good condition. *** we called during the lincoln christmas markets for a lunchtime meal. the place was completely filled, but we did get served at the bar fairly quickly. had to wait well over an hour for our meals though. the staff seemed to be doing what they could, but the place seemed thinly staffed for such a busy period. loads of empty glasses all over the place. we eventually felt as though we'd spent a lot of the day here instead of up in the markets! *** verdict: no extra staffing during the lincoln christmas markets seemed a poor management move. also the cask ale range was down to only 2. quite poor for a jdw. seemed more of a youngsters weeked boozer. disappointing. wished I had gone to the ritz pub instead in the end. just a 4 from me. reynard - 14 Dec 2009 09:15 |
| Square Box would be a better name than Square Sail. It’s a pretty featureless Lloyds No1 on Brayford Wharf so it’s full of people going to the cinema next door. There are about 8 handpumps, when we called most of these still had festival ales on, even though the festival finished almost 2 weeks previously. They were selling these at £1.09 a pint, they might have been a bargain or the beer might have been well past it’s sell by date. Who knows? We couldn’t get any as it was full of shoppers and child buggies and they only had 2 staff serving. Not good on this visit, but I have been in on a previous visit when it was OK.
