Right on Lincoln High Street, Craft Lincoln has carved out its own lane as one of the city’s go-to spots for cocktails, small plates, and laid-back afternoons that turn into lively evenings. It’s easygoing, reliable, and built for people who want good food without the formality.

The Atmosphere

Inside it’s stylish without being smug. Low lighting, exposed brick, and a playlist that’s more weekend than workday. Outside, you’ve got a spacious beer garden that doubles as a sun trap in summer and a fire-lit hangout spot in winter. It's a venue that works all year round.

Drinks That Hit

Craft does cocktails properly. Clean classics, creative spins, and a strong two-for-one deal that runs daily. It’s the kind of place you’ll order one, then just stay. There’s a good selection of draught beers and wines too, but the cocktails are the main draw—especially during their popular bottomless sessions.

The Food

This isn’t background bar food. Craft’s kitchen puts out solid small plates, loaded pizzas, and crowd-pleasers designed to share. The food complements the drinks, but holds its own. The brunch menu is well-thought-out and the bottomless deal (£35 for two hours) includes food, making it a proper booking option for groups.

Why It Works

Craft gets the formula right—good music, better drinks, food that lands, and service that’s relaxed but on it. It’s group-friendly, date-friendly, and always feels like the right amount of busy. If you’re after a place that hits both chill and buzz, you’ve just found it.
