Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Lion & Snake

Superficially attractive Marston's pub but sadly there is no character left inside the 'T'-shaped bar and rear dining room which have an anonymous semi-modern appearance. Only two plus points that I can see are the courtyard patio garden and a better range of real ales than the Prince of Wales next door. On the latter point, I found Pedigree, EPA, Hobgoblin, Brakspear Jericho and Ringwood Circadian IPA (£3.40, and a new beer to me).

The Lion and Snake was a John Smiths tied house when i first went in with a couple of my mates on a large weekend pub crawl.
Over the years the pub has altered,on our Saturday dinner visit the pub was packed,the front area is T shaped with the seating being a few tall tables and stools and some bench seating and normal tables and chairs,the room dog legs halfway down,the rear area is set aside for diners,the seating is normal tables and chairs.
The pub is now a Marstons tied house,we had a drink of Wychwood Bar Humbug which was a very nice drink,the other beers i noted were Pedigree New World,Jennings Cumberland,Hobgoblin,plus another beer from Jennings.
This is another Lincoln pub we have been in loads of times,it was a bit too busy to really enjoy our recent visit.

Not as good as it was having been a manager for Marstons the quality of food as gone down hill to keep the GP which is most important to them.
I can say it now that i dont work for them.
But will call back if its just for a look
