Went here for the first time yesterday after hearing good things about it.

I will be recommending to everyone I know! �

Went for a meal here tonight with my husband for our anniversary, couldn't fault a thing! Food was beyond excellent, one of the best meals either of us have had and the service was brilliant! We will certainly be returning again! I highly recommend this place. Thanks for a lovley evening!

User

We had our wedding reception at Browns. Absolutely FANTASTIC!! A huge thank you to Danny, Charlotte, and their staff who helped make our day so special. The choice of menu was excellent and everyone of our guests remarked on how supurb their food was. We cant praise Browns enough for their efforts on the day. We will continue to come back for meals as I know many of our guests will!

User

This was probably the best meal I've ever had in my life. It was so good! It was super busy and we were definitely catered for the entire night. We were never left waiting, the food came out nice and quick. The waitresses were lovely. The food just tasted absolutely fantastic. You will definitely see us more!

User

The food was amazing, some of the best I'd eaten on my vacation in England, and the staff was very nice. The place is a little small, but what isn't in England!

User

The cheese souffle to start and the passionfruit and creme brulee for dessert were fantastic last night. Lovely treat from my husband.

User

Stumbled across this place this afternoon whilst visiting Lincoln for a few hours this afternoon with my husband,we both decided to have the 3 course set lunch menu,wow I was totally amazed how delicious it was,great varied menu,and what an amazing price,this will be my only place to eat in Lincoln from now on,the food,service atmosphere was fantastic,can't wait to come back !!!

User

Regular customer, Food is always very good, customer service is excellent, lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend, one of my favourite restaurants in Lincoln.

User

Really good food, wonderful rustic atmosphere. Really recommend trying out the pies as part of any trip to Lincoln. Just prepare to walk it off up steep hill!

User

Myself and my partner had lunch with you yesterday and I just wanted to leave a review about how great the service and food was. I am gluten intolerant and it was made so easy and seamless for me, the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. It was great to be able to eat a very similar meal to my other half. The food was excellent and the rum raisin macaroon put a very big smile on my face (desserts can be a real challenge) I could have taken a box of them home! Thank you so much, we will definitely be back.

User

My new fave place...the pies are awesome! Delicious with chips or mash! Too convenient living just along the road...handy though!! 😋👌🏻✨

User

My family and I visited today from Nottinghamshire and the food and service was A1.

Thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back 🖒🖒🖒

User

Magic just magic loved the soup and Being a pie specialist can't fault it worth the walk up steep hill lol

User

Lovely food, lunch menu special price of £13:95 is a bargain. Just be prepared to wait for your food as it's all cooked fresh.

User

Lovely experience from start to finish, we arrived and the girl on the till was really lovely, we was 20 minutes early but that was no problem, she found our table right away and took us to it, she was absolutely run off her feet and was so polite to every table, nothing was too much. She came and took our drinks order and then food, the food arrived around 15 minutes later and it was so lovely. The best pie I've had !! I've brought some bread home for later too � . The chef came down and brought some meals for people too and then there was another waiter and again all brilliant . Would totally recommend � we will be back .

User

Love this place and visit it every time I am in Lincoln. Great customer service and tasty tasty pie.

User

I’ve visited Browns pie shop a fair few times over the past few years. It’s also become a popular request for customers when I’m hosting! I always have 3 courses and always leave saying only 2 next time! Overall, the food is delicious, especially the Game pie!

User

I concur with the many positive reviews. Following on from our second visit we look forward to returning. The quality flavours are the best I've had when eating out. The staff attentive. Cleanliness highly rated. We thank you for an excellent "eating out" experience.

User

I can hands down say that my food last night was the best thing I’ve eaten in a very long time! Food was amazing, atmosphere was lovely, staff were fantastic and the prices were reasonable!!! Looking forward to coming again soon. �

User

Great atmosphere, awesome food, and really good value for money.

Fabulous, tasty food. A little too dark inside for my taste but did not take away from the quality of the food.

User

Excellent well worth a visit if you are in Lincoln.

User

Everytime we have been to Browns the service has been excellent and the food beautiful to look at and eat. Come hungry because the food is delicious the pastry is perfectly cooked and the pies are filled to overflowing .

User

Came across Browns whilst out for a stroll and decided to give it a try. The food and service were superb, best pie that I've ever tasted. Managed to eat three courses and highly recommend the Bakewell tart and custard to finish off! Will go again next time I'm in Lincoln.

User

Called in on speck and so glad we did. Service was brilliant and my chicken, leek and mushroom pie with mash and veg was faultless! Would highly recommend Browns Pie shop.

User

User

Lunch on Saturday - great stuff. Super waitress service, helpful and attentive. Very nice pies. Only criticism was it was a bit dark inside, atmospheric but we like to see our plate.

User

Went yesterday first time to Lincoln and first time to pie shop, food was amazing we had a table of six , they just lack on customer service . We asked if we could have some more Brussels as a couple of us love them , the answer was you will have to pay for them , so we declined , when we went to pay the lady up there definitely lacked customer service . I asked if I could have two take away pies , she said yes they are £4.95 each , so I asked are all the pies takeaway she went take away menu in window not yes we have this this and this on takeaway menu , I know they were busy but customer service is the key , don't think that I will go back Again ��

User

Browns was always great but recently things seem to have gone downhill. The quality and service has dropped for sure.

We just had our annual Christmas meal there, but this year the Christmas pie resembled an overcooked pork pie. Not impressed.

Why change a winning formula Browns??

User

Lamb pie was terrible and I could not finish it. Despite another person at our table that tried the pie saying it was terrible, the chef said it was fine so no further action. Also, having to pay 50 pound deposit to book a table is absurd for an over rated pie shop.
