A landlord in North Hykeham relaunched the main food menu since taking over a local pub, and The Lincolnite took it for a taste test.
Daniel Johnson took over The Harrows Inn on Lincoln Road in July 2020 and also launched his company Johnson Pub Co, of which he is the director. His team of staff at the Harrows Inn also includes Operations Manager Jodie Pedge who is his sister-in-law.
Daniel has since taken over as landlord at three other pubs near Lincoln – The Chequers in Potterhanworth, The Bottle & Glass in Scothern, and the Waggon & Horses in Branston, but he describes The Harrows Inn as his main pride and joy.

In addition to seven different burgers, there are also steaks and a mixed grill, and pub classics including Lincolnshire sausage and mash, cottage pie, ale battered fish and chips, and the chef’s curry, with vegetation options also available.
Daniel told The Lincolnite: “When we first took over, the plan was always to do food as there isn’t much this end of Hykeham. We feel in this day and age pubs need to serve food and we’re excited about our new menu as there is something on it for everyone.”

Head Chef Nathaniel Toye wanted to create a comforting menu with food that he enjoys cooking, but also with the freedom to add his own flair to the dishes.
The pub also prides itself on holding events including performances from local bands, and karaoke, once a month. Oasis tribute band Headshrinker are due to play at the pub on September 16, with Punch The Monkey on October 7.
