It was a special family meal for my daughter for her 30th birthday. She chose for us to eat there, great choice. Even though we're local and gone past there many times, we've never thought about dining there. Staff were very attentive and accommodating as we took in balloons and a cake too to celebrate. There were seven of us. The food was to die for as we all had different options of the evening menu. Hats off to the chef, he was very pleasant to talk to. Service was amazing, we wasn't rushed at all. I cannot fault anything. Atmosphere was just right.We loved it, definitely recommend and will be going back again.

Called into Figs for lunch. Service was quick and friendly, I had the customary fish and chips and two street food friend fish for my wife and daughter. Food was delicious piping hot and the chips are to die for. Well worth a visit next time you’re in town

Had a very good meal here with friends; we all chose different main courses and everything was good quality, hot and tasty. The dessert do-nuts were scrumptious! The staff worked hard and service was good. My only criticism is that the restaurant is quite small and it was packed on the Saturday night we visited - so not much room on the table and seated very near to other guests. Hence 4 stars, not 5. Would definitely return.

The service was friendly and professional even though it was busy…great value with a cocktail to start and a hot beverage to finish. We be returning very soon

We booked this for a friends get together, the menu looked decent. We were not disappointed, the meal was amazing. Very high quality food at a really reasonable price. Myself and my wife had the set menu, which was a mixed seafood platter, Chateaubriand and a fondue dessert. It was fantastic…. Others in the group had steak, brisket, seafood salad. All said it very very good. There was nothing left on any plate. It must be said that the waiting staff (Emily and two others I can’t remember the names of) were very polite, knowledgeable and attentive. Thanks to all the team, we had a great night! Highly recommended.

I am a regular for the various afternoon teas through the year they are amazing but on this occasion I took my mum in law for her 90th birthday she had never been before and was so excited. She was blown away by the tinny portion sizes just perfect for her and she ate every last ounce. The young lady serving us was a delight and the chef came out to say hello. It was a beautiful memory for her.

Food was lovely the Christmas menu was small portions of sweet and savoury. The fish and chips could of been better we had two chips .and a thumb size piece of fish. It was very busy in there which didnt impact service. The meal was very expensive at £35 pp which I do feel was to much for what it actually was. I'd of been very happy at £55 rather £70 plus extra for a 3rd drink. The meal does come with one coffee or tea and one cocktail.

For many, a visit to the seaside goes hand in hand with rock, candyfloss & fish & chips. Oh, & of course the sea. Anyway, there are a number of good fish & chip holes in Cleethorpes but we didnt't really feel like that kind of thing. Nor for us the fancy tea room, formal restaurant, pub or bar. Enter this place. Not too restauaranty or bary or tearoomy, a bit goldilocks zone really. Limited menu, but thats okay, they were just easing themselves back in during the current crisis. What they did was fine, three courses for £18.00 with good service & a good atmosphere. I will shortly be in Cleethorpes again & will be paying another visit to Figs.

First time visiting figs, the food certainly lived upto the hype - had an amazing starter of prawns and crayfish followed by steak with a creamy peppercorn sauce, roasted potatoes and green beans. The dessert of Eton Mess looked so yummy and it really was a taste sensation. All in all great food and a very warm welcome from the staff made our visit extremely enjoyable.

A small group of us ordered the Best of British afternoon tea - around 9 different dishes in miniature. The food was wonderful and the presentation and attention to detail was superb. We also liked that there were equally delicious vegetarian alternatives where appropriate. We were amazed - a taste sensation ! We can’t wait to go back again . The restaurant was busy but we were served with no waiting for courses ( we’d booked ) - the service was excellent and the staff really friendly and helpful. Thank you Figs - an exceptional meal.

I had ordered the afternoon tea from here for myself, and three others of my family. I had ordered the day before upon their website, and I heard back quickly in regards for the selection, and if anyone had allergies and had perfect service over the phone. Upon picking up the order and getting home, myself and my family were more then satisfied with the portions and selection of food. My mother is gluten free, and was impressed with gluten free alternatives. She was satisfied with everything, especially with some restaurants having an awful gluten free selection.Afterwards all of us was left full and happy, and we couldn't offer anything but praise. Definitely be hearing from us again within the future.

We booked table for four. Two couldnt attend and we was told £10 would be kept from the £20 deposit we paid Then we were led to the only table available; a table set for two. So good job four of us never turned up as we’d have been waiting a while.Only one menu handed out, asked for another only to be told only one menu per person-this is helping Covid how?And every other restaurant in the town hands out one menu per person.My mate asked for gin with ice and lemon. Was told not allowed to give him lemon!Again, are the managers just making these rules up. I’ve never heard of anyone infected from a lemon. But Figs maybe know more than we do.Or maybe, i dunno, use tongs.So before we even picked a meal, the evening was tainted with petty pointless rules.Food was fine. Nothing amazing for the price. Average.

I took my good lady out for a well deserved evening out for the first time since lockdown without the kids and it didn't disappoint. It was good to see how well spaced out the restaurant was as we were still very uneasy about going out with the pandemic still going on. The staff were wearing visors for protection as well as masks. As for the food, the menu has something for everyone from slow cooked brisket to mouth watering chateaubriand. The fish special was what I went for, the stuffed plaice sounded too good to pass up on this occasion. It was filled with crab and crayfish and served with a gorgeous creamy leek sauce... amazing! The lady went for the monkfish which came with a beautiful salmon fish cake, she kindly shared and it was supreme in taste. Overall, an amazing evening to ease us back into normality. I will be returning soon - 5 stars!

Ok so to start, my friends and I attended to restaurant on a Tuesday evening. We booked way in advance. Usually is out of our price range but because of the help out offer we thought it was a good deal. The food was very good. However the service was diabolical. My friend left a review (being a keen foody) to warn others about the arrogant ‘part-owners’ attitude to non-regulars and awkward/clicky atmosphere. She was then directly messaged by ‘figs’ tell her how she is wrong and that she should get evidence and how amazing the business is... along with many other aggressive and offensive things. I’d think twice before putting your money into this ‘owners’ pocket. The service in the chippies is better than this and figs is 10x the price! Boycott!

Figs has made lockdown just about bearable The take outs have been superb and the food has not suffered for it. Afternoon Tea for Father’s Day? Amazing. Chateaubriand? Perfect. I could go on, but I think you get the picture about the super efficient service and delicious food. Once lockdown ended and Gigs reopened with reduced covers, we couldn’t wait to go back. A lovely afternoon tea and the three course lunchtime special. I feel like a bit of a cheer leader, but after fifteen years I am still waiting to have a poor experience there. Owners are accommodating and the staff are polite, professional and make you feel welcome and valued as a customer. Looking forward to going again.

I’m actually rather annoyed to have to write this as I really do like to focus on the positive points in a restaurant yet there’s only one and that’s that the food is delicious - which is a key aspect I’m aware. However, most of us go not only for the dining but the atmosphere and experience - especially in a place such as figs which is considered fine dining in Cleethorpes with a higher price tag than most others. The gentleman who I can only assume is the manager was extremely rude, starting off by talking down to the 2 waitresses who were lovely but seemed very intimidated and thus making an uncomfortable atmosphere. Following this, he was also rude to a customer who came in asking if there was any seating (I know it’s COVID currently and they may not be able to accommodate) but he literally shouted no from across the restaurant making us and quite possibly her feel embarrassed. It was again an extremely awkward atmosphere and damn right rude thing to do as he then allowed 6 ‘locals’ into the restaurant over 2 tourists who he just squawked at for asking 5 minutes prior. Like I say the food is great and the chef is obviously extremely talented, it’s just a shame the manager is quite clearly unaware that the future generations are going to be their future customers and the awkward, non interactive rushed experience will possibly see them fail.

It is great to see that figs has reopened for take away menu after lockdown closure. Dinner is available Thursday to Saturday and afternoon tea Thursday to Sunday. Pre orders only. The ordering process was a little strange in that you complete a request on their website and they phoned me back the next morning! However they were very efficient and friendly on the telephone. You agree a pick up time on the telephone and and collect from a table at the front door of the premises. The menu is refreshingly different to a bog standard English Afternion Tea and offers sweet and savoury dishes. Not all bogged down with sandwiches- you get just one with a choice of 4 different fillings and on white or wholemeal bread- it is a full sandwich on lovely bloomer bread. Savoury dishes include a mini prawn cocktail, chicken tikka skewer with mint dip and a wonderful sausage roll with fig chutney. The sweet selection gives you a chocolate cheesecake and a mini scone with clotted cream and jam. This is accompanied by a 1/4 bottle of prosecco and a special tea bag ! Priced at a nudge under £20, I considered this good value given the quality of food and presentation. It is something rather special. I was 10 minutes early for collection but this was not a problem. Attended to by Mr Figs himself - he was very amiable and charming. I will definately return even now my cover has been blown ! I do have a but of a chequered history with Mr Figs who asked me not to visit again after I gave them a 3 star review but I got in under the radar subsequenrly for a friends birthday and that meal was excellent. I am pleased to be able to give another 5 star rating. Truly deserved.

Ordering process was simple and payment process easy.Collected at pre arranged time.Social distancing observed on collection which was simple and efficient. The afternoon tea itself was well presented and tasted just as good with a good selection of food with a mini bottle of prosecco to wash it down.First time having food from Figs and we will definitely be visiting again either for a takeaway or to dine in when the restrictions are lifted.

First ever visit yesterday, we took Mum for a birthday treat. Lovely window table. We ordered Prawn Cocktail, Short Ribs & Beetroot humous for starters, followed by Pork, Seabass & Veg Risotto for mains. Nothing was too much trouble all evening, with my Risotto being specially made as I don’t like tomatoes - have to say it was the tastiest Risotto I have ever had. We had a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and ordered two desserts.....Toffee Apple Crumble and Panne Cotta. Both were apparently delicious (I was too full to eat dessert). Presentation was lovely. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere in this lovely little Restaurant was spot on.....from the music to the lighting to the attentive yet not over-eager service. We all thoroughly enjoyed the evening and left happy, full and looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!

My wife and I have visited a number of times and especially enjoy the afternoon teas. Retro 20 didn't disappoint. Everything was served promptly by friendly and informative staff. The food was all delicious and a great selection. The hot dishes were all a good temperature and the cold dishes nice and fresh tasting, especially the prawn and avaccado cocktail. I'm not sure I've ever had a better warm scone with jam and clotted cream. Great food at a reasonable price in a nice environment. I would highly recommend it.

The ‘RETRO 20’ afternoon tea was amazing, all the dishes served were delicious and fresh. I especially enjoyed the mini chicken Kiev and pie. The balance of savoury and sweet is just right, the inclusion of a glass of Prosecco is great too. In my opinion, Figs afternoon tea is the best in the local area and believe me I’ve tried quite a few. The service is brilliant, attentive but not intrusive. They always make me feel welcome whether I am with my husband/family or friends. If you don’t fancy the afternoon tea then they have a lovely lunch menu or for the evening another choice of menu. I would highly recommend Figs, I think the price is reflective in the quality of the dishes served. You won’t be disappointed.

Had 'afternoon tea' there early December with 9 friends. The food was excellent, if pricey at £25.95. Could have done with another coffee. The wine was pricey too at £5.80 for a glass of rose.

A few friends and I visited figs for the first time and we can’t wait to come back. The food was incredible and the owner and staff so friendly and accommodating. Lovely warm welcoming atmosphere, and my new favourite place to eat.

Mr Figs - the man with the most appalling attitude I’ve ever seen. Thank goodness the rest of his staff and the food surpass!

Another fabulous afternoon tea at Figs. A couple of weeks ago we had enjoyed the retro afternoon tea. We booked the Christmas afternoon tea wondering if Figs could go one better on the retro AT. The answer is yes. What a fabulous time we have had today. Staff is always welcoming and attentive even when they are very busy. Figs has never let me down, be it lunch, afternoon tea, early evening menu or dinner. All their menus are online if like me you like to check out what’s on offer and the cost. All in all a wonderful day and we will be back there in a couple of weeks for another afternoon tea. We can’t wait!

An unplanned visit !! I gave an average review at last visit some months ago and the 'charmer'- 'Mr Figs'- responded by suggesting I didn't visit again ?! However - back in the area to celebrate a friends birthday , this was their restaurant of choice. I was rather pleasantly surprised. Luckily i slipped under the radar and was permitted entry ! I do have the say that the dining experience was excellent in every way - service, ingredients , flavour, presentation and ambience ! Young but very competent staff. So there you go ! It truly deserves a 5 star Trip Advisor Rating for this visit. The Halibut special with pea risotto and peashoots was just beautiful- fish so fresh and cooked to perfection. Pricing does seem a bit top end for area but it was a quality dining experience. I have looked at the retro afternoon tea menu which looks FAB- so very different to Afternoon Tea you get elsewhere- must give that a go next time I am in town?- 'Mr Fig ' permitting. It was a lovely meal.

We have been here several times. It is a lovely place with a great atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious, I had the Halibut with chowder, it was perfectly cooked and gorgeous chowder. We will definitely continue to visit. If we had one criticism it would be the owner stood with his hand placed leaning on our table a few times whilst talking to the table next to us, a conversation we weren’t involved in & some may say I’m being pedantic.

Saturday evening, very busy but great friendly service. The menu is succinct and does justice to the produce. We were a group of four and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meal - the boys had a starter (soup) and no one had a dessert, but what we ate could not be faulted. Will go again.

I visited Figs yesterday for my mums 70th birthday and had their Retro Afternoon Tea its was lovely and made a change from finger sandwiches. We were treated to mini versions of fish and chips, cheeseburger, minced beef pie, chicken with sweet/spicy sauce, prawn cocktail followed by apple crumble/icecream, lemon meringue cheesecake and scone/jam clotted cream washed down with glass of prosecco and tea/coffee. All the food was delicious and very good quality with great service. I would highly recommend Retro Afternoon tea and thankyou Figs for a lovely afternoon enjoyed by everyone.

Went at Lunch time, and we both choose the three course menu, every course was great, service fantastic, food amazing, great chef. Will definitely be returning, and would 100% recommend as our best restaurant in Cleethorpes.

I cautiously asked for a combination of a couple of main courses and the chef produced exactly what I’d asked for. Great food, attractively presented and with a smile. Wine was delicious and didn’t break the bank. Contemporary feel with great service.

Were in Cleethorpes killing time before collecting son in Grimsby. Of course it started to rain but we were lucky to come across Figs. Although it was really lunch time it was fine to order the "scone crate". They were the best scones we have had for a very long time and beautifully presented with jam and cream. We watched other orders being served and they all looked delicious. We will definately be back.

We were in during lunch last week and had some fabulous food. My partner had the pork belly and i had the seafood salad. Both dishere were excellent, by far the most sophisticated food we have eaten in cleethorpes. We are looking forward to returning at the weekend.

I visited with colleagues earlier this month as we all had a £20 voucher to spend. We chose afternoon tea and whilst it was enjoyable I felt it was very overpriced, £24 each. I would return to figs but would maybe order something else.

We had the themed afternoon tea. It included two drinks -prosecco/small beer/juice on arrival and tea/coffee later. The menu was available online and whilst the food was explained as it was delivered, a menu was not given to us at the table. Fortunately, I was already aware it was £22.95 per head.

The same as many others, gutted that the place is changing to a Premier Inn guests only restaurant, seriously bad move. The place is busy nearly every serving We have even been for Christmas dinner for the last 10 years or so as well as breakfasts and tea times Please rethink this ridiculous decision

We visited to commemorate my Stepfather’s 80th Birthday after he passed away in 2022. He was born in Cleethorpes and as a child looked through the windows of this hotel with his brother saying that one day they would stay here. They both lived to experience staying here, and it is now our privilege to carry on this tradition. The hotel is beautiful, traditional and spotlessly clean. We dined in the restaurant and found the food and service impeccable. We look forward to returning next year…. And every year after.

My husband and I arrived at 1250 to be greeted with “have you booked?” As passing trade but living local we hadn’t realised you had to book and we were informed by a member of staff that they were really popular so tables get booked quickly but she would take a look. We noticed two tables free both seating 4, one in the corner and one set inbetween two other tables. The member of staff informed us that the corner table we had placed our things on was booked at 1:30 but we could have the one set inbetween the other tables and the one where everyone knocked into when passing. I told her we would be done quickly anyway so not to worry. My latte came and I had drunk it before my cake arrived, my husbands’ Americano was very weak but was hot, his cheesecake was tasty all the same and my Victoria sponge equally tasty. Within 15mins a table of 6 was cleared and made available and the table that we originally had chosen was offered as a “choice of where would you like to sit” to customers who had booked. We have eaten in some lovely places and had coffee in some nice settings but have never felt as uncomfortable or unwelcome before. I would say that if passing trade isn’t welcome then put bookings only on your page would be helpful, so customers who feel It would be lovely to drop by and support a local business don’t.
