So, you might remember that some time ago we taught you all how to climb Steep Hill without wanting to die. Wasn’t that just spectacular?
Well, we promised you a video and know you’ve been going out of your mind, wondering when you could see such a wonderful short film.
You’ll be pleased to know that the wait is finally over, enjoy!
You may have heard about the American food craze that is the cronut.
You’ve not heard of a cronut? Well crawl out from under that rock and I’ll tell you. Continue reading
So, picture this, you’re in Lincoln and someone mentions a stop off for coffee/tea/cake.
Then you remember you’re never more than a metre from a tea or coffee shop.
Our latest find is Churchills Restaurant & Coffee Bar.
Located on the High Street, opposite Carluccio’s, this cosy coffee shop is modern with a relaxed atmosphere. Not the usual tatty looking leather sofas and patterned bucket chairs placed round a coffee table. It definitely feels more like a restaurant, with cushions on the seats to soften the mood (and the seats).
The menu contains a selection of hot and cold drinks, all at reasonable prices. They also serve meals, as it’s also a restaurant. How lovely if you’re struggling to choose between food or coffee.
The desserts and cake selection is definitely amazing, so many different puddings. So many we spent several minutes umm-ing and ahh-ing over what to get. Eventually I opted for a warm scone, you may pronounce this as ‘scon’ (we’ll save that debate for another time), with jam and cream.
Finally the staff are really friendly and welcoming, which makes everything so much better. It runs on waitress service too, so there’s none of the embarrassing slow walk across with a tray of hot beverages. If you’re in hurry, (you’re obviously busy), you might as well stop by to pick up something to take away.
Play Zone. That soft play area that you spent hours in as a child, attending the birthday parties of yourself and your friends. By friends, we mean everyone in your class, because your mum didn’t want anyone feeling left out.
Why are we telling you this? Because Tuesday is student night. That means you can get together (with people you actually like), and relive your youth. Continue reading
Now, I know in Lincoln you’ll probably be spoilt for choice when it comes to looking for a cafe or tea room. If you think Lincoln is running short on this type of place then seriously, you must love a hot beverage.
If you like tea rooms and pastel colours, this might just be up your street. Or hill.
With only a couple of days till Christmas, you might need to venture into the city centre to pick up a present for the relative you forgot about or that friend you weren’t expecting a gift from.
You’re now faced with the dilemma of how you’re going to get there. Continue reading

Those familiar with Lincoln will probably know about Trebles on Saltergate, the cheapest place to get a treble (obviously) and mixer, it’s also the start of many a forgotten night. But, if you venture above this popular bar, you’ll find an absolute gem of a venue. Continue reading
If the wide array of Christmas adverts & shops full of gift ideas haven’t got you in the mood yet (bah humbug), Lincoln’s got something that’s almost certain to get you feeling festive…even though it’s just November (and Christmas is over a month away, but still). Continue reading
