A High Street pub and restaurant has closed its doors, but it will soon reopen as a Carluccio’s Italian restaurant.
Carluccio’s will replace the Lamb and Flag by March, and is already looking for a head chef, sous chef, assistant manager, general manager and 26 other jobs.
The chain serves Italian cuisine internationally, with different menus depending on the city, and each restaurant has a simplistic decor.
The menu caters for breakfast, lunch and dinner guests, alongside a children’s menu, gluten-free items and drinks.
Prices for main course range from £9.95 to £32 for sharing options, and also include special offers for multiple courses.
Dishes include a variety of meat and fish, such as pan-fried sea bream and rib eye steak, and a section dedicated to pasta dishes.
In addition to the restaurant, a number of Italian produce can be bought, such as chocolate, biscuits, pasta and sauces.
Simon Kossoff, CEO of Carluccio’s, said: “We have been keen to open in Lincoln for a number of years now and are delighted to have finally found the right site for us.”
Updated: Carluccio’s will be the 11th Italian restaurant in Lincoln. Of the other ten, four are chains: Prezzo, Ask, Zizzi and Pizza Express; and six independents: La Bottega Delitalia, La Trattoria Da Vincenzo, Pomodoro E Basilico, L’Italiano, Gino’s and Marcelli’s.

Tenants living in a large block of council flats on Lincoln’s Ermine Estate have criticised the building’s “run down” condition, highlighting several issues.
Trent View residents, contending with problems such as excessive bird excrement and poor insulation, have also criticised City of Lincoln Council for its delayed handling of ongoing issues like leaks.
As people prepare to go out more in the run up to Christmas, a Lincoln woman who created the globally renowned Ask For Angela not-for-profit scheme is proud to have made the county, and the world, a safer place.
The scheme, launched by Hayley Crawford (pictured above) in 2016, aims to ensure that anyone who is feeling vulnerable or unsafe is able to get the support they need. This could be on a night out, a date, meeting friends and other situations, and it is available to everyone of all genders to help them feel safer.
