Trivia and History

The former Moncks Arms Inn.

Caenby Corner is an important crossing on the old Ermine Street.

On the opposite corner of the junction was the Moncks Arms Inn, later the Moncks Arms Hotel, which dates back to 1936. The Caenby Corner Transport Café had set up in its car park, but this closed in 2020. The hotel itself closed in the 1980s and was only recently refurbished.

Site History

A garage and filling station were built to the north-west of the Caenby Corner crossroads in the 1950s. This went onto be joined by a Little Chef restaurant in summer 1986, which traded here until 2008. By the time the Little Chef closed, the filling station was branded Total.

The restaurant building was purchased by local coffee shop chain Café Amore in late 2009, and they reopened it as a coffee shop, trading here until late 2015.

Following Total's nationwide shutdown in 2012, the site was rebranded to BP and a Londis store was introduced.

Local restaurant operator Meat Inc purchased the building from Café Amore in late 2015 following their closure and opened a restaurant here in September 2016. This closed on 28 July 2019, with the Meat Inc business relocated to nearby Nettleham.

Starbucks franchisee 23.5 Degrees then bought the former restaurant building in 2020 and converted it into a Starbucks Drive Thru. The store opened on 18 December 2020, with two InstaVolt electric vehicle charging points being added to the car park in March 2021.
