Old Boots left this review about The Still

A nice, Victorian layout, an island servery as you enter with bars to right and left, lots of stained glass and dark wood, carpeted and with banquettes and Britannia tables. Very nice display of old photos and documents in one little area, other seating areas are screened off the main bars and worth exploring. The beer however is a sad array of Carlsberg dross badged as Marstons and other former UK brands.

Occupying part of some old Co-op buildings slightly off the beaten track - this was my first visit despite having been to Lincoln on many occasions in the last 20 years or so - this long established pub conversion has squeaked into Camra's inventory of heritage interiors with a one star rating. The entrance lobby has doors to the two rooms either side, and there's another room visible further back on the right too. A number of hand pumps are on both sides of the central bar counter, but I saw that the lad working there was concentrating on a group of customers in the right hand room so I walked through there from the otherwise deserted left hand room and waited my turn. There was a house beer (a 4.2% blonde from a Marston's brewery) plus 61 Deep and Pedigree. I went for the Pedigree, which was just barely adequate (NBSS 2). Quite a pleasant pub but clearly I should have gone for a different beer. Or a lager.

A surprisingly traditional pub just off the High Street. Entering through what was clearly once the jug and bottle, you find a large central bar counter with a games room with pool table to the left, a lounge area to the right and a large saloon to the rear. Unlike most of Central Lincoln, it actually feels like a proper pub, not a restaurant or student dive. The Marston's ale range consisted of Pedigree, Ringwood Old Thumper and the 4.2% house beer.
