The Bridge Tea Room

Service was very friendly but the food was terrible, mushroom soup was like water,no taste, tuna sandwich was more mayo than tuna and the cake was dry . My friend wasn't impressed with her meal either and heard another couple complaining about there meal , sorry but won't be returning.

Me and my sister visited, had cream teas, very reasonably priced, sat right next to the river, watched the fish swimming by, loved the mix matched China, and different coloured teapots, the menu was brilliant, we even got served little sweets on the side of our saucer loved this place we will return

We fell over this great little find whilst mooching around Horncastle. The service was excellent (lovely lass with a dark pony tail couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly), the food was delicious (I had the Lincolnshire high tea and a salmon and cream cheese sandwich and my wife had the afternoon tea) both were extremely tasty and an absolute bargain.

Visited here for lunch, and we were not disappointed! I and 2 others in my group had jacket potatoes, which were oven baked, and so light and fluffy inside. Served with a small salad and coleslaw, a well as the chosen filling, it was delicious. Drinks were also lovely. One of us had coffee and said it was rich and smooth, served in an individual cafetiere. Coke was served with cola bottle sweets, which was a lovely touch. So, 3 cokes, 2 cherry cokes, a coffee, 3 ciabattas, and 3 jacket potatoes came to £58 and worth every penny.

Today we decided to have lunch at The Bridge. When we arrived and tried to get a table, a young girl told us there were no tables inside and we could only sit outside. It was a chilly and cloudy day, so we suggested having a coffee and waiting for a table. However, she insisted that a table wouldn't become available. Disappointed, we left and found Tanya's Cafe nearby. Although all the tables were taken, the staff warmly welcomed us and allowed us to wait inside for a table to free up. We were grateful for their hospitality and glad we decided to stay.

Visited many times before, but not for a while. Very very cramped if you like playing sardines your fine. Food was nice no complaints there . Young waitress very polite. Tables are absolutely squashed together. If I was infirm or of a large stature I would have struggled to get in the space. Once crammed In coats were touching the damp walls. Obviously its a very old building but sitting in a damp corner with black mould and peeling crystallised paint on the floor made the visit not so good. Skirting boards filthy covered in peeling mould. Once the table next to us left we were able to make a bit of space to be less squashed. We were the lucky ones those over by the dresser were even more cr...

Would definitely NOT recommend this cafe. It could be really nice with a change of ownership and complete make over. I have visited a few times in the past and to be honest not been totally happy, but I believe in giving places/people more than one chance. However, I will definitely not be visiting this cafe every again. I was shown to a very small table rammed into a corner so I was facing a wall. I requested simple poached eggs on white toast and could I have the eggs cooked hard i.e. no runny yolk. I actually repeated it twice to the waitress who said that 's ok. Well, when they arrived not only was the yolk liquid but even the white wasn 't cooked i.e. slime on my plate. I pointed this o...

Unfortunately, we were disappointed with our experience at this restaurant. We had to settle for this place as other cafes in town were full. The building is old and showing signs of damp, with peeling walls and mouldy windows. The two hot drinks we ordered were nice, but the snack items were disappointing. The £3 toasted tea cake was not enjoyable, even when toasted and buttered, as it was dry and stale. The homemade cheese scone, priced at £2.xx, had been microwaved for too long, resulting in a soggy texture. Additionally, it was served with a cherry tomato that had burst and leaked juice onto the scone – not appetizing. When we raised our concerns about the quality and freshness of the fo...

Every time we visit Horncastle, we always end up at this restaurant. However, the quality of the food and service has become so inconsistent that it's time to try out other dining options. During our most recent visit, we arrived half an hour before closing time and ordered poached eggs on toast. It was not a good sign when the waitress audibly sighed upon taking our order. The eggs were served in a lackluster manner, floating in a pool of vinegar water with runny yolks, accompanied by soggy, cheap Sunblest white bread on the side. The rushed service continued as the waitress, noticing my wife browsing the gifts upstairs, inquired about her whereabouts before checking the time on her watch....
