The Sun Inn, Saxilby

It is always nice to report on a good news story. Today I write to announce a great boost to our local, to the boat, pub trade in the Lincoln area.

The Sun Inn at Saxilby has recently been taken over by a new land lady with many years experience in the business. She is making huge inroads into turning around the fortunes of this waterside establishment and working hard to give a huge welcome to all who visit the premises. She has great plans for the place and is currently setting up a micro brewery in a disused barn beside the main property.

There is a long established live music scene in the pub and it is nice to see that whilst making big changes in other areas this is one area that is here to stay and won’t be changing. There is a good selection of home cooked food on offer at reasonable prices throughout the day with bar suppers offered after 9pm with the option to take away. The Sunday lunch is great value and the quality of the food was excellent.

A number of events are planned throughout the year including car boot sales, Diamond Jubilee celebrations, live bands and local fund raising and charity events. Hopefully this will signify a change in fortunes for this pub which has been up and down over the years. It is in a great location overlooking the Fossdyke Navigation and just needed the right person behind the bar.
