The Lime Kilns is an absolute must for lovers of fine food, real ales and ciders, and pleasant surroundings. Situated on the edge of Ashby Canal, it offers patrons free moorings – directly next to the spacious beer garden – and an ample car park. A function room (buffets and disco can be provided), free fishing in the garden, live music, quiz nights and outdoor events all further the appeal of this charming venue. During the summer months, soak up the sunshine watching narrowboats pass by, and when winter comes cosy up inside by the real fire. With locally sourced food prepared on the premise, whatever the season, you’ll find yourself both satisfied and charmed. Popular homemade pies and offers like Monday curry night (£2.50) and Thursday steak night – two 8oz steaks and a bottle of wine for just £20 – ensure any visit is bound to be a happy one.
