Brewers Fayre - Boston

We made a pit stop on our way to the coast around 3 o’clock in the afternoon to take a break from our journey. We ordered food from the 2 for £11.49 menu and it arrived quickly, served by a very courteous waiter. The meals were delicious and well worth the price. As the driver, I decided to have a cappuccino, which was made by a machine and turned out to be a bit weak. I realized later that I should’ve added an extra shot of espresso. If we ever find ourselves passing by again and in need of a meal, we would definitely stop here again.

My brother lives in Boston and absolutely loves this restaurant. I spent Christmas down there and on Christmas Eve morning we went for breakfast at 8am. It was a bit early for me, but I was surprised to see how many people were already there. There was plenty of choices for breakfast and the staff were friendly and very helpful. I usually don't go out for Christmas dinner, but we returned the next day at 12pm and were greeted again by friendly staff. We were offered Bucks Fizz or Prosecco and seated at our table within minutes. The service throughout was excellent and for £50, I thought it was great value. I never expect the best during the holidays at any restaurant, but I really enjoyed my experience and would recommend this place whenever I visit Boston from Manchester. The staff were lovely, the chef was great, and the food was tasty. The only thing that could have been improved was some Christmas music. Overall, I give it 5 stars.

We pre-booked a Boxing Day meal for 1 pm, but after 45 minutes and speaking with staff, we finally received our starters. We were then told to order our main course, despite already pre-booking it, adding to the chaos of trying to get our table cleared. The desserts eventually arrived, but overall, the experience took two and a half hours and we were relieved to finally leave. The lack of staff and disorganization made for a frustrating dining experience.

CHRISTMAS DAY Awful all round! We waited for 40 minutes in a queue to be seated. The starters were appalling, we’ve had better pate in Lidl. A blob of sweet onion chutney and a soggy slice of toast. We asked for some butter and got told NO. Carvery was stodgy and stingy. Mean with the meat and the beef was overcooked. ONE pig with no blanket! Watery gravy. One sundae, trifle flavour was ok. No wafer or sprinkles. The other, blackforrest, was tastless with no evidence of black cherries. Waited over 30 mins for pudding. Shocking price of OVER £50 each plus drinks. Very poor value. Not at all Christmassy hardly any decorations. We go here quite a lot and will be taking our complaint further. The Staff try, but this was overbooked today, ruined our Christmas Day.

Went in for a family meal, staff very friendly and attentive to use, loved the festive decorations and music definitely be going back we had a wonderful time there
