    About this company

    Set in the heart of the Lincolnshire village of Wragby, you will still find The Adam & Eve Public House. Perfectly situated near the market square, at the junction of the A157 and A158 leading to the delights of the East Coast, The Adam & Eve has been loved for decades by villagers, travellers, traders, farmers, and during wartime, servicemen and women from the local RAF bases.​ Saved from the bulldozers, The Adam & Eve is now reborn as a family restaurant, bar and garden with seven luxurious bedrooms. We offer a range of traditional and modern food using local, fresh ingredients, carefully selected, prepared, cooked and served by our head chef and his team. We also offer a fine, hand-picked selection of beers, wines, spirits, coffees and soft drinks including some old favourites and award-winning contemporary locals and newcomers. ​It is our aim to return The Adam & Eve to its former glory, a small slice of Eden, providing Wragby and it's visitors with a warm welcome, the very best food, drink and accommodation, but above all a relaxing and comfortable space to meet and have fun. From a relaxing drink with friends or a romantic meal, to a special celebratory dining occasion, we care about making your visit exceptional, each and every time.
