The Birdcage Lincoln

It was a busy day today at The Birdcage. Two good things happened.

We are so dog friendly that a dog found his own way here unbeknownst to his owners but after posting on facebook we luckily found where he belonged and he was collected. 😀🐕

Then we had a visit from Cask Marque where we are soooo happy to announce that we got 100%.

They checked we had a clean cellar at the correct temperature, a clean ice machine, that the gas cylinders were chained up.
In the bar area our glass washer was spotlessly clean, our glasses were spotless and the taste, smell and temperature of our ales perfect 😍

Always makes us feel very proud to be a great community pub serving great drink 🍻

Good morning everyone just to let you know what events we have on this week 😀

Tonight is Yarned & Dangerous as with every Monday night. Always feel free to come along at any time and join in from 7.30pm 🧶

On the 2nd Monday of every month we also have Group Together who meet in a quiet corner of the pub. The group is for people with social anxiety, autism and mild learning difficulties and is a safe place to meet new friends from 7pm

On Wednesday it’s Quiz and Curry time again. Chris has been working hard on this quiz as always and is ready to enjoy some silly banter. If you haven’t already we would recommend booking your table on 274478 😀

Then on Friday it’s 90s time again - It feels like forever since the last Lipgloss night. If you enjoy the sounds of Madchester, Indie and Britpop from the 90s this is the night for you 😀🎶🎶🎶
