jug and bottle and hainton are owned and run by the same company........but the jug and bottle is far superior in my opinion.......he he he im a chef by the ways lads and lasses. try also the "splash"  just past louth on the mablethorpe road.


'The Splash', just over the ford, used to love that place, glad it is still going (Royal Oak?)

Woof, Woof!

It isn't the back street two roomed village boozer I remember, don't like the look of it now, could be any plastic pub doing sodding 'Carveries', I hate them.

Woof, Woof!

Went to the Hainton last week for a carvery,not as good as J&B but the roasters were real ones whereas i think the J&B ones are out of a packet.

Carveries are ok if you want a quick filling cheap meal and if you go when they are not busy but i prefer paying more,having more choice and being waited on.

Glad to see someone does a carvery with mashed spud,will have to give it a try.

for what you pay carverys aren't bad value remember though cooks do carverys not CHEFS thats why in most "pub" type kitchens the vegetables come out boiled to oblivion a la hainton inn.  for something a bit special pop on over to the millhouse at covenham, you get really well looked after and he food is spot on, some people say the prices are a bit  steep but the ingredients are top quality


irony................its a bit like brassy,only made from iron!   (baldrick,blackadder)

Pretty much every time I come back home my parents take me for a carvery, is this phenomenon just a local thing as I rarely see the same excitement in other parts? Either way I favour the Hainton, the Lynton was pretty cold when I went and we were all sat in our coats eating.

Me too, as I said before when I go out for a meal I expect it to be served to my table. Can't see any enjoyment in going out for a meal and having to queue up with all the old dears after a cheap meal for cold spuds and veg.

I like the ones on board the P&O ferries out of Hull. You can just get as much as you want, and keep going back again and again.

Last time I was on board I ate TWO whole roast chickens, plus veg with each serving, LOL

Bit expensive having to pay for the sailing too though
