Meanie BoBini's in East Lindsey

We came here three adult and 2 children, my husband and father in law both had the fish and chips and both spent the night with food poisoning

This place is not worth your time. Firstly the positives - location. That’s about it really. The place is filthy. Dirty floors and tables, the food is bottom rate pub frozen food. It’s the worst place I’ve eaten at in Skegness. Avoid. Take a short walk around the corner and find something better.

Arrived in Skegness with two hungry grandchildren. Was quiet but advertised a children's menu outside. Food was excellent. Hot, huge portions and the boys ate the lot! No complaints whatsoever. 100% value for money! Friendly staff too!

Came here as my teenage lads were moaning they were starving as usual 🤔 and this was literally the nearest place so no thought involved. Good choice. The place was really nice. Great selection of food at reasonable prices and the food was excellent. Good kids menu too for our toddler. The staff were extremely friendly and we would definitely come again.

Popped in for a pub lunch. Nice sofa and decent food. It arrived fairly quickly and food was decent. Reasonably priced and location is right in middle of all attractions. Would go again.

I visited this place on 21st july while on a day trip to Skegness and the location was perfect, right on the sea front. The Fish & Chips were lovely with a large piece of Haddock and plenty of chips. The meal was advertised with either beans, peas or mushy peas but I didnt bother having either of those as I knew I wouldnt be able to eat the lot as the plates were large. You helped yourself to cutlery and all the condiments you wanted around the corner of the bar I sat outside in the sunshine and noticed that any empty glasses or plates were cleared away very quickly, which was nice and all the staff had a curteous, pleasant manner. They also had my favourite swedish cider Rekorderlig on tap which for me, was an added bonus.

We stopped here to eat as it was the first place we came to with space We weren't disappointed. Food was good, service prompt and staff were pleasant, although they could maybe pretend to be happier at work. Dad said the steak pie wasn't up to much but the rest of us had fish and chips which were lovely and a burger which was also lovely. We went back for lunch next day and drinks throughout our holiday. Cocktails seem like a bargain but glasses are tiny so didn't order more than once. Good range of beers and gins etc. Will visit again.

Location: Perfect as in the centre of skeg next to the Embassy Staff: Pleasant but they don’t ask if”everything was ok” for a reason lol Food: Not pleasant! Partner had deep fried chicken which was the driest ever tasted. I had cottage pie - tasteless and dry. We both had garden peas, which judging by the colour had been stood all day. The chips were dry and again, I would say had been stood a long time either under a lamp or been microwaved back to hot

I came here with my husband and 3 children, 1 of which is 18. Firstly they refused to serve him alcohol without his ID even though he was eating with his parents. Secondly, the food was obviously warmed up in the microwave and my pie was stuck to the plate. The chips on my eldest son's plate where green - see photo attached. The burger on my youngest son's was dripping in grease and fat. The chicken in my daughter's nuggets where slimey and ineadible, also see photo attached. A real disappointment and a trip to MacDonalds was needed to feed my children with a half decent evening meal.

We popped in for a quick bite to eat for lunch while we were out and about. It wasn't my first choice of where to go as it looked a bit dark inside, but the food came out quickly and tasted delicious, will be coming back again.

We popped in at teatime for drinks and food. I had the beef and bacon burger with chips which was delicious! Dad had a meat pie that he said was delicious and full of meat. Generous portions and good quality food. Friendly staff and a nice place. We came a few years ago and it was good then too!

Good social distancing going on, short staffed so you had to order at the bar for drinks and food, which was then brought to you when ready. food was good, Half roast chicken and Scampi were great.

The food was piping hot but not much choice, maybe still a limited menu??? What we did have was nice and a decent size meal each time, burger was well cooked and chips were ok,

Our go to eatery in Skeggy. Staff are great. Food is consistently good. Nice relaxed atmosphere. The fish and chips is great. Good range of drinks.

Called in on our last night at Skegness we both had steak 🥧 chips and peas it was a lovely meal highly recommended and reasonable price staff were friendly and polite

12 of us visited this afternoon, absolutely superb service and the food was stunning. Honestly can't compliment this restaurant any higher. a wide mix of ages and all of us have said how perfect the food was. The service from the lady who took the...

No table service as per government guidelines all orders are taken at the bar…. Advertises the best fish and chips in Skegness, I’ve had better meals in Afghanistan.

Steak and mushrooms, turned out to steak and mushroom. However, this was not the worst part. The serving girl, although young, just threw the food at us with limited care. The steak was lifeless in taste. As for the famous fish and chips... it could...

We eat out here twice on our holiday and it was lovely both times. It was the eat out scheme so was good value. Really good portions and food was cooked to perfection. All staff were nice, polite and helpful x

Came here during a trip to Skegness, had a haddock and chips which was pretty tasty, paid for a jumbo though and wasn’t as big as you’d expect. We used the eat out to help out scheme to get 50% off so it was pretty...

Visited twice during our stay. Covid measures absolutely spot on. Staff are warm and friendly. Food. Spot on both times. Also doing the eat out to help out. Best place we've eaten this holiday. Well done!

My partner and I both got chicken burgers... no salad or sauce in the burger and the burger tasted like fish. Only nice thing was the chips (they were like chip shop chips). For the price I would’ve expected so much more!! The food came...

Myself and my partner always come to Meanies for a steak and burger. The food tastes amazing, always cooked to perfection and always leave impressed.

Burger was okay, chips are undercooked n really crunchy salad was salty. We really didn’t enjoy our meal and wouldn’t come again.

Went for lunch here with friends as our original choice of pub was very busy but, have to say this pub was far better. The food portions were large, it was fresh and well presented. Would totally recommend this venue and will revisit next time...

Wow! What portion sizes. My mistake for ordering the large haddock but it’s great. Lovely food. Lovely atmosphere. Cooked perfectly. Can’t find any fault.

Our visit was a great surprise, in fact we are going back again tonight for our evening meal. The food was perfectly cooked and presented and the condiments were a quality well known brand, not a cheap replacement. The young staff members were very efficient and helpful and I would highly recommended anyone visiting Skegness to give it a try. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

This doesn’t look much from the outside and it looks dark inside but don’t let that put you off. The food is excellent, it is hot and fresh, the portions are hugh and it is delicious. Prices are very reasonable and whilst on holiday went a couple of times. Staff were excellent and highly recommend you visit.

We had two meals here during a weekend break. The service was really good and the atmosphere was very relaxed. The food quality was exceptional and the portions were large. Definately worthy of further visits in the future.

Very good staff, plenty of choice from bar and good menu, bit dark in places often think its shut looks so dark, good entertainment, pity it does seem shut a lot.

when your hungry go to this place. our group enjoyed everything that we requested..the food was hot. the portions are huge but we ate and enjoyed. we al l left our plates empty

Drinks only late Sunday night, old style pub singer, knocking out 80s & 90s songs from Spandau Ballet to Culture Club sure I heard Madness "Must be Love" he was that bad he was good?

Called in after a stressful day, all chose fish and chips and was delivered out fast. Large portions and that was only regular. Lots of people coming and going , food churned out. Great location on skeggy front. Only missing a star as nobody asked how our meals were and a bit messy in the place (busy from diners ) .All very positive almost a 5 stars, well worth a visit ! Will be back again.

Called in for a meal ordered four different one's food was good and tasty nice chips quite reasonable prices quick service the place was clean n tidy as was the staff no one came to ask if all was ok would recommend and will return thanks

We only went to try as we had a voucher but my partner said they were the best chips he's had in years. We ordered a bugsy malone burger and an al Capone burger both came with salad and chips. The burgers were quarter pounders and the rolls were not the usual cheap rolls you get either so it just looked better than a run of the mill burger and chips. We will definitely be back. Thanks guys.

We had a few hours to ourselves so wanted to go somewhere for something nice to eat but reasonably priced. We were so dissapointed. I had steak which was full of water and served with chip shop chips! No idea why they served it with chippy chips as there is no chip shop attached to it. My husband had the cottage pie. It had clearly been around for sometime. It was completely dry and again served with chippy chips and rock hard peas. We left all of it. when the boy (aged about 12) came to collect our plates I pointed out that the food was disgusting. His response was "Ok never mind". I then looked around and saw the place was being run by youngsters with no experienced management around. Any other restaurant would have been mortified and asked for feedback but these kids just didnt care. I even saw one of the waitresses on her break neck down two pints of dark fruits in about 10 minutes and then return to work! Terrible food and terrible service.

We visit Skegness from Lincoln for a day out quite a lot, and me and my partner are a bit food snobby HOWEVER this place is great. It’s chilled , cheap, they have great drinks and have blue moon on tap which the bar guys always garnish with a massive orange slice (bravo as even the great London pubs don’t bother) There’s a blonde lady behind the bar that always takes our order and she is absolutely lovely, polite and genuine. I can’t rate this place enough. The fish and chips (always ordered) is amazing. It’s not the classiest of places but it’s down to earth and amazing quality and in being so it’s relaxed. Love it. Recommend.

Food great service also great must try. Fish and chips are to die for 5* all the food is fresh and piping hot

Could be something great here for location mainly used as a pub by looks of it. Food very poor quality. Won’t give another chance

Had a couple of hours in here recently - well, sat outside in the sun. The cocktails are cheap (241) and you can actually taste the alcohol so they’re not just fruit juices. The gin and lager are reasonably priced too. Though we didn’t eat, we envied others who ate there - the plates looked very plentiful and I didn’t see anyone leaving much! Very good actually - if you can stomach the STRONG smell of fish as you walk in.

The service was quick and friendly and the pub was very clean. The choice of meals was reasonable. It is in a good seafront location.

Situated next to the Embassy theatre and smack bang in the middle of Skeggy seafront this place is ideally located.

We went here with family for my husbands birthday and the food was fantastic, I had Scampi which was perfectly cooked, the surf and turf was delicious too and the chicken burger was enjoyed. The restaurant was clean and the staff were polite. Definitely going to go back again

Went here for dinner one evening. Nice and quiet but good atmosphere. Food good and very reasonably priced. 2 drinks and main course £14 per person which is good value. Staff friendly and helpful - would visit again if in Skegness

Had an evening meal here of burger and chips, and steak & chips. Tasty meal, huge portions for both meals. Neither of us could finish our meals due to the volume of the portion. Would eat here again.

Visited here last year and was a great place with good food but this year the food was awful food was cold and dripping in grease which is a shame because it’s in a great spot and really nice inside

Went there with my Dad as he loves a good carvery. You get 2 courses for £7.95 which can either be starter & carvery or carvery & dessert. We chose the soup of the day which was beautiful , went for the carvery which was a choice of 3 meats , you could either have one of the three or two of the three plus help yourself to rest of everything else.

Quick service for a reason. food was very plain no care into it at all. The chips had 0 flavour at all. The burger was cooked and looked like it came from a cheap supermarket

Meanie BoBini's is perfectly located for an early evening meal, before visiting The Embassy theatre next door. I have had good meals here, but not this time. Although the cafe was not full, there were plenty of staff around . Unfortunately, they seemed to be busy talking to each other. Meal, fish'n'chips, arrived. Very small piece of fish, OK I suppose, but the chips were not right. Discoloured, dry, not piping hot, not nice. We wondered if they had been left over from earlier? We left most of the chips and the waiter was not surprised at this when he collected the plates. He did apologise for them in a 'sorry about that' casual way. I took this up with a senior person who told me all meals are usually cooked to order, but immediately refunded half the cost. So a reasonable recompense for a disappointing meal. I know they can do better, perhaps just took their eye off the ball on this occasion.

Stopped off here during our day out to Skegness. Nice, clean pub with lots of seating. Food was great value for money and very nice. Highly recommend!

The "restaurant" itself was filthy. Sauce splashed everywhere, up the menus and salt seller, tables were really sticky. My pint glass looked as though it had been through a nuclear war. The food was totally bland, swimming in grease, and a massive disappointment.

All the food was deep fried and covered in oil The onion rings were just full of grease, the fishcake tasted off and the salmon was dry Discusting

Went for a meal with the wife while we were in Skegness! great food, and 2 pints for under a £5.00, highly recommend..

We visited here on a sunday night and the food was ok the chips were proper chip shop chips and it was good value,large portions however we visited New Years eve and had Fish and chips and i was very sick later that evening, so unsure if it was the food or a bug....

Quick and friendly service. Good prices on drinks. Food was quick in coming, very hot and tasty. We went after summer period, so guess bit quieter, but still lots of people in on Show nights next door at Embassy. Worth a try.

We went here today for partners birthday and was well impressed. Great decor, amazing dance floor, we didn’t eat but the food looked great and is a good price for what you get, we will return later in week !!

Varied menu and food and service was excellent will go back again in the near future. Initially it looks a bit like a Berni Inn but when you receive the excellent service and outstanding food you realise all restaurants are not the same?

Chicken Ceasar Salad was very tasty. Also the Scampi Salad and chips. Hesitated at first as did look a bit dirty but tables were clean in fact the staff were very polite and constantly cleaning up.

although the staff were friendly and the food ordered appeared quickly,this was in no way a reflection of the dirty floor-remnants of previous meal eaten,and the table which looked clean had a very sticky feel to it,not sure i would revisit if visiting Skegness again.

Been twice recently & had steak pie chips peas. Lovely both times. Very quick service. Place needs to be lighter a bit too dark

We had a steak pie,10 oz rump steak a half roast chicken and scampi and all were super. Great portions and the service was fine. I really can’t find anything to complain about other than my youngest 11 went to toilet and we thought he had been gone a while so I went to see if he was ok. He was glad to hear my voice as he was caught short with no paper lol. It did make us laugh but maybe that’s an area for improvement.

I was a little sceptical when my brother suggested this place, particularly as Skegness sea front was rammed and it was lunchtime. However we managed to bag two large tables for the ten of us despite the pub being quite full. I ordered fish and chips, expecting a pub meal with a frozen piece of battered fish, but was pleasantly surprised when my meal turned up and it looked like it had come straight from the Chippy. I can honestly say that this was the best seaside fish and chips I have had for a long time and there were no complaints and empty plates from everyone. Didn't really get the gangster theme in a seaside resort but the pub was fairly clean and I would not hesitate to eat here again.

Member of staff did not wash hands after toilet visit, approached manager but she did not seem bothered !

This is a really nice place if you are looking for something a bit more than fast food or a bag of chips.

Ate here on Friday, really impressed from the outside ... once inside we sat in a booth, I’d just watched the waitress clean the table yet it was sticky? We ordered at the bar where we tried to chat with the Barman And ask about the area - he grumbled and stared at his feet :/ Then the food came, a cheese platter - yuk, the mozzarella sticks and onions rings were ok but the other items were foisty and soggy. The burgers look impressive when served however once you take a bite it’s a different story, it was GREY inside - grey burger?? No thanks. Over cooked dry chips arnt for me either - thank goodness for the fresh side salad! I wouldn’t recommend this place and I certainly wouldn’t return.

2nd time of dining here. Food was good, had starter and main. (Prawn cocktail and fish & chips) very fast service with good food. The fish was fresh and cooked properly. Recommended (again)

Looked nice from the outside, when we got inside it was unusually quiet for a bank holiday. Ordered the combo starter which they were sold out of so went for the fish goujons and chicken fillets. Arrived within the time it took us to take our coats off, sit down and take a sip of beer. There was 3 chicken/fish on each starter and a shot glass with dip, the waiter just put them on the table and we had to go searching for knives and forks. Finished the starters and same guy collected and asked if we wanted our mains. They literally came in the time it took him to walk to the kitchen and come back. I had the classic burger with chips, onion rings and salad. The burger looked like dog food, and I’m not 100% sure it was cooked. There was no relish, no sauces, no cheese, just a cheap burger in a slightly stale bap. The chips were like chippy chips, a little greasy but the past part of my meal. The onion rings were completely raw onion and dripping with oil. I look one small mouthful of the burger and it made me feel Ill.

We have been here on several occasions before a show and food has always bee good. However tonight was a very different case, I ordered the fish cakes which were still frozen in the middle when they arrived! I spoke to the waiter whos3 said sorry do you want your money back or another meal! Well obviously I wanted to eat so I said another meal! Within around two minutes I had another meal in front of me to be told “don’t worry about. It being quick it was someone else’s meal!” This time the fish cakes were also frozen 8n the middle! Again sent them back and ordered a completel6 differen5 meal. By the time mine came the rest of my party had eaten and I was left to rush so we could go to the theatre! The waiters did apologise but 8 felt it wouldnt have hurt to offer a free drink or something! Not impressed wont be back

This was our 2nd visit. Just as good as the first. Clean and tidy. Food was delicious and hot. Most enjoyable. Will return again 😊

The decor looked really nice and the food was good as well the only let down was that the chips weren't very nice but the 30% food and drinks monday-friday in March was great

Bobini's is a friendly pub, reasonably priced with a good choice of food, it is very clean friendly staff, good selection of drinks. It is also a great place to take kids for a meal. They have a pool table and table football. Had a...

We have been to meanie BoBinis before and like their food but was most disappointed today. We are taking a week break in Skegness and have eaten in MBB before, so decided to have a steak there. Arrived about 4pm and had a couple of...

Our Family had a great meal here, cooked well and hot, all 7 meals came out together, large portions. We definitely recommend it. prices good too.

Kid friendly on a Saturday lunchtime. Reasonable prices, friendly happy staff and tasty food. Would cheerfully return.

Had an early tea here today and feel compelled to give 5 stars.The staff were very friendly and the food was fabulous. Not at all greasy! I had the Bonnie and Clyde burger with chips, onoin rings and a salad garnish. I noticed there was...

Pricing isn’t bad on food or drinks, drinks weren’t bad either. But when your meal comes out before you’ve both...

Decent fish, chips were average but not bad for Skeg Vegas standard. Good portion sizes. Very quick service!

We ate here when it was quiet and the delivery of the food and drinks were very quick. The food was good but could have been a little warmer although it didn’t warrant a complaint.

The fish & chips were disgusting batter underneath was a soggy mush and the top was raw don't know how they have the cheek to put posters saying 'best fish & chips in Skegness' I think NOT!

Visited here with my 2 kids expecting to pay ridiculous prices algor the location, but got mountains of good food for 3 people for under £25! I loved the cottage pie, it was fresh and very cheesy.Yum! The staff was so helpful and thoughtful. Highly recommend.

Came in with my 2 kids and my mum and dad, and we all had meals and we all enjoyed the food 10 stars

Had a day out in Skegness and called in for an early dinner before heading home. Didn't have great expectations as so close to seafront attractions. Sent hubby off to order for 3 of us with £40 and got over a tenner back.... food arrived quickly, right temperature, well cooked and lots of it. Nice setting but a bit dark. Needed to use phone torch to see menu. Staff friendly and helpful, the pub was clean and welcoming and the kids loved the illuminated dance floor. Also, plenty of vegetation choices.

Visited with my wife and daughter for lunch and I couldn't understand why such a big place was empty on such a busy day.I got my answer when the food arrived.2 portions of fish and chips and a burger and chips.Awful food which is way overpriced.Take my advice, give this place a wide berth and go elsewhere.

good service. bar man said enjoy guys. Bar man well spoken and polite and had a smile. This bar is good for family's. They serve food and they have decking out the back for hot sunny days. Meals are average. Not bad little bar.

Our second time visiting here in three weeks, first time we came for some early afternoon cocktails which were very nice. This time we came for a late breakfast, with 10 mins before the brekkie menu switched to the lunch menu and being a chef myself l know how sometimes we can be annoyed if we've packed all the breakfast stuff away and you get a late order so thank you guys!! So we ordered two large breakfasts which at £4.95 each were very good value for money and the kids shared two bacon cobs between em. The food came out very very fast. Very tasty just hit the spot for our road trip home. Will back back for sure.

Second time visiting here after reviewing last time we were in skegness. Was great first time as my review will show and on holiday decided to visit again. Fairly quiet and gota seat on outdoor decking. Lovely place to sit in the sunshine. I do wish it was non smoking as there are benches out front. I'm an ex smoker but when people are dining it's not nice and I don't see why we should be forced indoors in glorious sunshine. Anyhow, food wise prices average pub grub. Kids meal and drink £395 and adults average £8. The food in my opinion is great quality. Well cooked, quality ingredients and decent portions. We had burgers. They were huge, fat, handmade "proper meat" ones. Grilled. Loads of toppings. Served with chips, like "chippy" chips but they were really nice indeed! Very well cooked and not greasy. Also had onion rings with it and I've never seen an onion so big. No joke one was 5 inches wide and 1 inch thick! Absolutely serious. Huge! My little one has chicken nuggets which were real chicken pieces, not cheap or minced product in a lovely thin crispy batter. Came quickly and was hot. Really enjoyed it. I have no complaints at all and most certainly will return. The smoking thing is a personal gripe as they could dedicate the front seating to smokers and free up the decking/dining area for families. The cutlery was clean but had water marks from drying so looked unclean. Picky people might moan at this. Didn't bother us. See you next time we visit Skegness.

Great place, lovely staff. Modern inside, outside seating. Food is a good price for by the sea. Has live music, sports, entertainment. Fun for all the family.

The food here was lovely and quick service. Drinks were a decent price and the staff were good. Only let down was the sticky tables. Other wise the food was lovely

The steaks was overcooked, the onion rings were inedible and oily.The staff never came over to check us.The tables were dirty, the cutlery and menus were sticky. Good moment is that the decor of the restaurant is very atmospheric .

Visited on a Wednesday lunchtime. A pleasant pub and we had the Fish and Chips which was really nice. Good location too.

We loved this place. Went in for a meal and had burgers & chips. It was great value for money and we all really enjoyed it.

They do a really good fish and chips. Although not the cheapest in town, it is a nice spacious, light pub with a view over some of the fairground rides. Tables are well spread out. Definitely would go back.

been in this restaurant twice, each time had the home made steak pie. reminds me of my younger days, when steak pie in a café or restaurant was made in trays and you got a slice form the tray, I will go back

Great place to stop and relax, have a few drinks and good selection of food. Ended-up eating there twice over the weekend, perfect ;)

Stopped in for a couple of drinks on a lovely hot day on our first visit to the town. Really lovely place, great atmosphere. Staff really friendly and polite.

Attached to the Embassy Theatre this is not only an ideal place for theatregoers but one for all visitors to the resort.The menus offered a large choice of food and I particularly liked the seating arrangement. You had a choice of open plan or secluded tables. This was my first visit since a change of ownership and I was impressed by everything, the food was first class and the staff were very obliging. I will definitely make it a regular food stop in future.
