Cafe Zoot Restaurant
Caf Zoot opened in 2000 as a small uphill eatery. The popularity of the restaurant and the area has allowed us to expand over the years, as such Caf Zoot now boasts four individual stylish dining rooms split over two floors. This additional space means we can meet all our customer's needs, from a romantic meal for two through to events like birthday parties, wedding receptions, private dining evenings, and other group events.

Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the location of the restaurant is perfect for those looking to relax in the historic surroundings of Lincoln. Situated in a pedestrianised area of the Bailgate with the Castle and Cathedral just moments away. The menu at Caf Zoot is an eclectic mix of European dishes mixed with some British classics for good measure.

Super welcoming staff with a warm Italian atmosphere. Very convenient for a quick bite at lunch. Clean and bright inside, comfortable seating and a nice view of the street outside. Decent sized menu with lots to show, including a 2 course offer. Plentiful food portions and excellent value for money, will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Don't be put off by the "Cafe" part of the name. This is more of a restaurant than a cafe. It still does very good quality breakfasts and lighter items during the day as well as full-scale lunches and dinners. We ate there on our first night in Lincoln and were very happy with every part of the experience and so we went again the following evening as well. A good selection on the menu with a couple of surprisingly good wines too. Well presented meals and attentive staff at sensible prices. We will definitely go again and recommend it highly.

We spent a couple of nights in Lincoln recently and ate here on two occasions. We found the food delicious and plentiful at a reasonable price. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only problem was that they seemed to be having an issue with some supplies but given the current climate that is perhaps not very surprising.

We went for a family 21st meal and all ten of us had a lovely time. I think the restaurant was understaffed but the girls we had waiting on, were friendly and courteous. It made a poignant meal a lovely memorable time. They very kindly let us bring our own birthday cake. Thankyou girls.

We went to Cafe Zoot as walk-ins on a busy Sunday evening because the place we had booked had let us down. They found us a table and we had a lovely meal. The staff were very helpful and pleasant, creating a very nice ambience. Altogether a very happy accident, we would love to revisit next time we are in Lincoln.

Upping it to 4 stars from the 3 of my last visit because things were all round better and the issue before was pretty specific to the day and the visit at that time. Now seems to be the place we visit when we have to kill time between hospital dental appointments - pleasant service and no shenanigans of any kind.

The fry-up was delicious, the staff were both welcoming and friendly staff, there was somewhat of a long wait for food to be served, but overall we had a good experience. Would recommend!

We ordered some food on Just eat and had heard good things and was quite looking forward to the food. As you can see I had ordered a San Miguel and had been given a sol instead, already off to a bad start. Then my partner had plated up her meal of fish and chips and onion rings. All the items were very soggy and fairly tasteless. The ‘mushy peas’ came as whole peas as evident. My meal of salmon pasta was also tasteless and disappointing. We only ate the meal as we were so hungry from waiting. Wouldn’t go here again

We arrived slightly late (our fault) and had to wait for our table as they has let our original table go, which was fine. However we had to wait by the bar area and felt in the way. But it wasn't long until our table was ready and we were seated, service was speedy and officiant, with a slight feeling of haist. Food was lovely and very reasonably priced, nice wine selection too.
