Best ‘proper English pub’ I’ve visited in the area. Down to earth. Not ‘amazing’ food, but fine, and good value most meals under £7. And some decent real ales.

While I was here around 4pm on a weekday, I heard a man tell the bartender that he has to work in a bit so he’ll have a «shandy»: half beer, half lemonade(Sprite). Was it a shandy? Small, low ceilings, cushioned, wooden fixtures, dark but well lit. Completely unlike an American bar or lounge. This is a place people go to do coffee talk, but with alcohol. It’s slightly below sidewalk level. Unfortunately I did not have opportunity to try food since my eating was kept on a strict schedule to accommodate all the pork pies, custard tarts and chips with gravy. There’s outdoor seating which is beautiful if it’s not raining. Actually, Louth is pretty wonderful. I didn’t know anyone there, aside from the family. But that’s part of the beauty.

This used to be the very best pub in Louth(I think) but the last time I went in Oh No it was not good the service was poor the prices high. will not be going again.

Louth is a charming little jewel of a town in nowheresville, Lincolnshire. And this is one of the best pubs in the kingdom. Famous for their rare roast beef sandwiches, they also keep the best beer in town, always spot on, perfectly pulled, try the Tipsy Toad or the Flowers which are always on. Beautiful building and lovely back patio. Perfect.

On paper this is a fantastic pub, it’s a really old traditional pub with several small rooms and excellent facilities with a great range of ales, wines and spirits. However it is a little bit more expensive than other local pubs and tends to cater to the snobby element. This pub has the dubious honour of being the only pub that I’ve ever been asked to leave — apparently because I wasn’t drinking enough! I do think it was more to do with the leather jacket, combat boots, backcombed hair and makeup scaring the pretentious snobs who frequented the place. Considering I went in not long after that in a rather nice suit looking relatively ‘normal’ after a business meeting and I was welcomed with open arms even though I was drinking less! So I can’t really say that I’m impressed with the pub or it’s staff. Shame considering I’ve always considered Louth to be one of the friendliest places to go for a drink regardless of what you look like.

I’d say the Wheatsheaf is one of Louth’s most well-known and popular pubs, despite being tucked away in Westgate close to St James’ Church. It’s an ancient building and very small and poky, which gives an authentic pub atmosphere, and the pub garden at the back is gorgeous. In the summer the Wheatsheaf puts on beer and bangers festivals and throughout the year you can rely on their kitchen for yummy pub grub. This is the kind of place where you kick back on a cold evening and settle in for a quiet night — it’s not exactly a stop on a pub crawl(except maybe as the starting point or to finish the night!). It’s too comfy to leave once you’ve found a seat! It can feel a bit exclusive because everyone seems to know each other in the main bar, and it’s an older crowd than you get further into town, but once you’ve overcome that it’s a great place to be.
