The Christmas Market is a magical time when Lincoln is transformed into a Winter wonderland, thousands of people crowd the streets and its almost impossible to find anywhere to sit, eat and relax.
Here at Caffe Portico we want to save you from the hustle and bustle of the packed streets and only a few steps from the High Street you will be able to enjoy the smoky, rustic taste of authentic Italian Pizza at only £10 per person.
The fires of the Wood Fired Oven will be stoked both Friday 4th and Saturday 5th of December so for those who want to escape the throng of visitors and step out the way of the waves of people drop in on us for a take away Pizza or a relaxing sit down meal.
