Visited Nov 2024.
Set in an obviously old building the interior seems rather faux lacking any real pub ambiance. Very much food led
and firmly aimed at the tourists it was busy. My beer was Ferry Ales Green Hop which like the pub was a bit disappointing.
Not somewhere I'd aim to return.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Wig & Mitre
Food-led pub in three parts: the main seating area by the picture windows overlooking Steep Hill, the bar area with a few stools in the centre and a slightly raised dining area at the back. All sections smart, semi-traditional in appearance. Despite initial appearances, cask ale is important here, and we found a pair each from Milestone and FAB (including the Green Imp green-hop beer, £2.50, half).

This is a somewhat modernised, gastrofied affair, pics aplenty on their website.
Ferry Ales Brewery Green Hop at £2.15 a half and not really what I was expecting from a seasonal green hop beer; it was a bit too weird to attract another of the same, a slight chemical taste and not very nice, a bit like the crawlers referenced by BF below.
Beer aside, not bad, but not the cream of the crop in Lincoln.
