The Mailbox pub on Guildhall Street is back open in Lincoln with a revamped interior and brand new beer garden after a £300,000 investment.
The interior now has more fixed seating, as well as bookable booths and a new large projector screen.
Outside there is an additional pergola, more new seating and two 65 inch screens, great for sports matches.

The food and drinks menu has two new additions. The all-new Boozy Brunches have been added and guests can enjoy bottomless drinks such as draft beers, Prosecco and gin and tonic.
The bottomless brunch is £20 per head between 10am-2pm each day. It includes a brunch dish and unlimited drinks from a set menu during a 90 minute slot – this must be booked online in advance here.

The revamp has created 10 new jobs at Mailbox and General Manager Dan Davis told The Lincolnite: “It’s great to be back and the pub looks amazing, it feels like a different pub.
“We have had some really good feedback from people who are loving being back inside and trade has been good.”

A Lincoln resident is frustrated with vehicles parking on single yellow lines on Lincoln High Street, while the county council says the current regulation order means it’s unable to enforce the area properly, despite signage saying cars cannot park there.
Richard Bridgen has been living off Riverside Drive in Lincoln for around five years now, and over recent months he has noticed a particular trend around parking on a section of the High Street, which can impede his view as he tries to turn from Gaunt Street.
Lincoln residents in the Boultham area have become increasingly hesitant to report crime, citing concerns that the shortage in police staffing will lead to a lack of response.
Lincolnshire County Councillor Kevin Clarke (Labour) reports being contacted by multiple residents in the last few months who have suffered break-ins at their homes or gardens. Despite these incidents, they claim to have received minimal support from Lincolnshire Police.
