The Chancel via York avenue in Scunthorpe

Ah, The Chancel – it's one of those local spots that really hits the mark for a good night out. From the reviews, it sounds like they've got the food side sorted, with people going on about how delicious their curries are and how attentive the staff are, always ready with a smile and quick service. The live music adds a fun, energetic feel, and that beer garden seems ideal for soaking up the sun with a pint or two. Prices are fair too, making it easy on the wallet for a proper meal and drinks. On the flip side, it's a bit of a mixed bag; there was that unfortunate tale of a Christening gone wrong, with grub that was apparently awful and the outside area looking neglected and messy. Still, with most folks giving it high marks and an overall solid rating, I'd say it's worth popping in if you're nearby – just maybe check it out on a regular evening rather than for something special. All in all, it's got that warm, community feel, but like any place, it's not perfect, so keep your expectations balanced and you'll likely have a great time.
