Does anyone know if the Dambusters Inn is open? There were reports that it had closed last year, but there are conflicting websites some of which indicate it may be open again.
Thanks.

Thanks for all the answers. The Faldingworth option sounds good, what’s the name of the pub?

Lincoln and District CAMRA have a commitee meeting there in April according to their website http://www.lincolncamra.org.uk/diary.php
This indicates that its not only open but the beer should be pretty good to boot 😀

Joking aside, I’ve not been for some time now, but I’m told it’s merely a shadow of it’s former self, and not that good. Why not stop there for a drink and then go on the the pub in Faldingworth… Fantastic food, and a nice memorial (all be it VERY small) to 300 (polish) squadron on the wall. I say memorial, it’s little more than a couple of small parts, but you’ll be welcomed, and served great food!… And it wont cost a bomb either 😀 Sorry, couldn’t resist that last part!

Oh good, thanks, I’m taking two veterans “on tour” in the area in June, and that sounds like the perfect place for a lunch-stop.

It was open when I visited in September 2008.
