Looking for any recommendations for a decent pub or restaurant (that's open during the day) that does decent grub.

It's my birthday in a few weeks and my brother is coming up from Surrey and wants to take me and my Mum out for something nice to eat on my birthday.

Anyone any decent recommendations?

You can never beat Steels although the menu is limited at the moment but evolving, you'll need to book early as well. We went with my mother a couple of days ago.

Went to Wetherspoons on the High St a couple of times recently and the service was shocking, first time we waited ages for the food and when it came it was not what we had ordered, second time we were two thirds of the way through our food and the drinks still hadn't come, I had to ask three times before they came.

Went there for lunch a couple of years ago and it was OK. What we ate was a bit too salty.

That said, it was a midweek lunchtime and you can't really expect miracles from a restaurant in a small town when you're not eating prime time. Could well be very nice on an evening.

The Ocean down St. Peters ave was good the last time we went, but haven't been for a while.

We’ve never had a bad meal at Caistor Lakes or the Royal Oak in Holton Le Clay.

Relish or Figs are very good.
Miller & Carter for a decent steak but take plenty of cash.

My current fave restaurant is Sage in town. It used to be Swigs (Willie's in Grimsby) The menu is mainly European but the food is absolutely fantastic..

Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

C'mon Tim Martin is having problems recruiting staff after stating before the referendum campaign that people who suggested this were doomsters.
And maybe he had problems with his microwaves for the food issues.
I wouldn't take anyone there for a meal, it serves a purpose for extremely average,cheap,quick food & even the beer selection & quality has declined dramatically.
