Booked table for Sunday lunch but we're told they had sold out so had to choose of menu which was a little disappointing but we were given a 10% discount of our bill. The food was excellent and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend a visit.
We stayed at this lovely hotel overnight and ate both evening meal and breakfast in the restaurant. Both were superb. The food was great and plentiful and we will definitely visit again
I had previously eaten and thoroughly enjoyed the experience so decided to take friends on a return visit. It didn't disappoint, everyone thought the food was superb and the staff and ambience very good. We will return. Thank you.

Great food and great service when we visited. We was taken care of pretty much straight away on our visit, the menu is very reasonable too.
Nice atmosphere, good service and an excellent Sunday Roast Dinner. We've been to eat at the Duke Williams many times and it is always been a satisfactory meal.
Hi Went in over the Easter holidays for my birthday meal with 3 friends, lovely fish and chips, very good idea that you can replace your chips with salad at no fuss, been here numerous times and never disappointed.
Excellent food in a fantastic location. Great service and very impressed with the new layout to the rear of the pub. We will definitely be visiting again soon.
My husband ordered the 10oz rib eye and requested it rare, sadly it was very chewy. But every other aspect of the night was cosy and welcoming.
Booked on line but put wrong time. They still managed to accommodate us but this did have a knock on effect in service as we had to wait a little longer for our meal than normal. But food was good will book again
situated in the lovely bail area of up hill Lincoln we had a lovely meal served by friendly staff who provided a speedy and overall very good service, what more could you want :)
Great service and great food. Staff were very friendly, food was brought out promptly and the atmosphere was great. Would recommend a lot to friends.
Great food, great service even though it was quite busy you never felt you were hurried, great environment. A lovely place to take folk who had never visited Lincoln before - they were impressed! Thankyou.
Service was great and the food was very very good ! The surrounds were very nice and look forward to going back again and trying something else on the menu
Service was excellent food very disappointing I had the vegi roast dinner.. Tasted over cooked and not fresh... Wasn't particularly well presented, everything just loaded on plate. Generous portions but I would rather less food and more appealing to the eye, which this wasn't. Service faultless.
Pork was pink and most not eatable although they did give free dessert for this. One of us asked for the soufflé starter as a main with veg but it still came on a little plate served with toast and the chips ordered did not arrive. We mentioned this and said could they make sure we still weren't billed for them but we were!
It was fantastic. It's a wonderful pub, with lots of character. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was really good. It's great to have somewhere so nice within walking distance for breakfast (or dinner. Or just drinks)
A great welcome, good beers and excellent food. Highly recommended. We ate with our family of 6 and the food was prepared well and the service was excellent.
A great restaurant, great atmosphere and very pleasant staff. The menu was nicely varied without being over the top. Prices are reasonable for the quality of the food. I would have scored higher but there was a mix up with our order and ad a result two main courses were delivered late. We did get a discount on the bill though. We will go there again.
Food was excellent but we had to go and find the waitress to pay the bill and we needed to go to the bar to order our rounds of drinks in meal as no staff visible in restaurant. Barman was very good and told us to sit down and brought the drinks to us. A restaurant manager/supervisor seems required
Well-prepared food, although the menu could do with expanding a little more. Ambience is good except for the accoustics in the restaurant areas - there's no sound absorbing materials so, with a full restaurant, it was difficult to hear what the other people at my table were saying.
Really enjoyed our Sunday dinner, great place, great staff. In a lovely part of Lincoln with a wide choice on the menu always something different to chose, but you can't beat their Sunday roasts.
Was taken straight to our table even though we were 15 minutes early. Very quick polite friendly service. Food was outstanding. Great menu choices and bar is extremely well stocked. Beautiful decor. Only slight problem was that the bread for the table was brought out at the same time as the mains. Not a huge problem but our waiter noticed the mistake without us saying a word and promptly took 10% off the bill. We've recently moved to the area and this will definitely be one of our favorite places to eat.
Only our second visit to The Duke William for lunch and we weren't disappointed. It was excellent, this place really can not be faulted. The food & drink, the staff and service and the building itself, all beautiful!
Food was very good as was the service. Really good atmosphere and we will definitely be returning in the new year. Overall an excellent meal.
Whilst we have no complaints about the quality of the food we have to say that the service was extremely slow. We waited 55 minutes from ordering before our food arrived. The only things coming out of the kitchen seemed to be burgers which were heading for the bar area.
I was with a group of 8 people. The food was acceptable but not well presented - all the meat and veg on one's plate, covered by an enormous Yorkshire pudding and swimming in gravy. Veg and gravy would have been better presented separately. I thought it was overpriced at £13.95. In my view £8.95 would have been a more appropriate price. And the unremitting musack was very unpleasant. I would not go there again.
Lovely cosy pub/restaurant. The food was great, in particular the aubergine and halloumi bruschetta and the steak. The service was also very good and the waiter helpful.
Lovely food...staff were very good....polite and efficient. Menu could do with being a little more varied but overall a lovely place. Will visit again soon.
Lovely meal. Table was a little cool because we were close to french doors and it was a cold night. Would definitely visit again .
Had a great meal. Food was well presented and beautifully cooked, would have given full marks but my salmon came with an unexpected olive garnish and I hate olives. The waitress was fully prepared to get me another one but as the garnish was on the skin side of the salmon it didn't alter the taste too much. Staff were attentive, polite and helpful. Also good value.
Greeted very cordially by a young man behind the bar. We had a couple of drinks before going through to the dining room for lunch. As it was Sunday we both had a roast , this was excellent, nicely presented and served to us by a very pleasant and helpful young lady. All in all a very enjoyable experience. John Rayner
Lovely food, great prices and we had some good service. The setting was lovely and we will return - particularily for Sunday Lunch - Thanks
Nicely refurbished with cosy atmosphere. Good selection of main courses - the belly pork was delicious. Standard choice of desserts, would have been nice to see something different to what you can get everywhere else. Would definitely recommend and go back. The service was very good too.
Lovely room, with great facilities. Really nice pub with good food both at dinner and breakfast. Great location for Lincoln's historic quarter. I would definitely recommend.
Very nice atmosphere with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Reasonable amount of choice on the menu. The food was very good and well priced. Service was quick. Would definitely return on my next visit to Lincoln.
Waited a long time at the bar to be acknowledged/seated and finally served any drinks or food. This was when the area was not even busy either. Had it been, chaos would have ensued. This continued after seating, with lack lustre service, so despite pleasant surroundings and food, the visit was tarnished.
Great service with friendly staff and fantastic food with a good choice. Toilets let them down unfortunately though as they weren't clean. Would definitely go again
I enjoyed the experience, the staff were helpful, cheerful, and efficient. Nice ambience to the restaurant and the food was good. I would recommend it.
Excellent food and service always provided at this excellent venue close to the cathedral and castle. All of our party enjoyed the choices made from the lunch menu....
