  “The food is fine, but, when i'm paying £5 for a simple sausage and egg sandwich with red sauce, did they really have to be that tight with the ketchup that you could still see the bread through the ration-sized dribble? It surely doesnt eat into your costs that much?”

  “Me and my husband went for a lunch date yesturday 6th october. This place was full of people and the only seats available was at the window near the door. A table that clearly said for 3 people only. We asked one of the staff if we could sit at the table which she had said yes. Whilst we was waiting for our food another member of staff told us that the table we was sat at was for 3 people not 2. Rude and obnoxious is an understatment, you do not speak to people like that, and this member of staff needs to do a course on customer care. Or get rid of her!! Bad for business. Food was ok burgers were greasy although ended up with a bad stomach not worth the £35 spent and totally ruined mine and my husbands lunch date. Will not be going there again!!!! What other cafe puts a sign on a table, that that table is for 3 people only when it was a table that had 6 chairs round it?”

  “This is simply the freshest tasting breakfast we have ever tasted, no fat or grease, each item perfectly placed and the flavours for each item on our plates tasted so divine, hats off to the chef. We have tested a lot of cafes and restaurants but Boodles have never let us down, the ingredients are specially chosen and it shows. The staff are always smiling and helpful. Please dont change a thing as we love coming for breakfast, thank you. X”

  “We had a wonderful time at Boodles to celebrate our friend’s birthday. We are from NZ. We enjoyed the rich flavours, generous portions and down to earth food choices. It was good to taste freshly made food of good value. Since we’ve been back in Lincoln we have often experienced food in cafes/restaurants that taste bland and as though it’s been re-heated in a microwave in places referred to as ‘special restaurants.’ I hope this kind of cafe continues to thrive. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We didn’t have to wait long for the food. It was fresh and generous. I chose steak and kidney pudding with a crispy and tasty suet pastry with a rich tasting gravy. Absolutely delicious! Thank you so much.”

  “Honestly, if hygiene is priority DO NOT attend this place for a meal, me and my friend arrived and witnessed a dog walk in. We thought nothing of it apart from a little disgust but then I witnessed the owners start petting and playing with the dog to then not even wash there hands and go back to the kitchen to make our food. I felt so sick I couldn’t even finish my plate. Service was nice there polite, however I’d never go back there again due to hygiene issues. This is exactly why dogs shouldn’t be allowed in cafes.”

  “Have visited here a few times now and this is by far the best full English breakfast I have ever had anywhere in the UK. And I've lived all over the UK! The food is really lovely and the sausages in particular are exceptionally tasty!! Prices are slightly above average in my opinion, but when the food is that good, personally I dont mind paying a little more as you get what you pay for. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Whenever friends and family come to visit I mow take them to this little gem. I highly recommend it.”

  “Lovely little spot – dog friendly and full of charm! Boodles Café is a real find in Lincoln. It’s super dog friendly, which is a big plus for anyone out walking their pup. There’s even water bowls and treats available, which is such a nice touch! The café has free parking, which makes life so much easier, and the food is exactly what you want from a local spot—cheap, cheerful, and really tasty. Whether you're after a full English, a light lunch, or just a good cuppa, Boodles delivers without breaking the bank. The staff are absolutely fantastic—so friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. You can tell they genuinely care about making you feel at home. Highly recommend if you’re after a relaxed, down-to-earth café with great service and good value. I’ll definitely be back (and bringing the dog again too)!”

  “Good morning to the owners and staff. I am currently sat in your lovely cafe after having enjoyed a brilliant light brekkie, and a cup of coffee. From the moment I walked in, I could tell that this a gem of a place. The staff, especially the young girl who served me, have been welcoming and friendly. The singing chef sings as good as her fantastic breakfast... Probably one of the best breakfasts I have had in years! Also to the gentleman who made me feel welcome and didn't mind me chatting motorbikes! Thank you, the visit and ambience and general feel good was a pleasant surprise, who said the British can't do good food, good atmosphere and good food... They need to try this place ❤️”
