This is a great spot for various hot breakfast choices. There were 8 of us booked in for 9am breakfast and once we had all ordered, (including my nephew who asked lovely waitress please could he have chips & sausage) we all got our choices promptly, beautifully presented and it was all delicious. My nephew got his chips too! Staff are friendly, and helpful. Seating area outside is nicely kept,we would recommend Oliver’s.

I went with a group of friends when it was armed forces weekend and there was a limited menu. The menu listed tomatoes on toast as an item and when I asked if they were tinned or fresh a lady who must have been management came over and told me rather rudely that they had no salad items because of armed forces…when I mentioned the tomatoes on the menu she said they didn’t have any. I then asked if the beans that were on the menu were Heinz. To which she replied, again very rudely and almost shouting at me in front of a group of people ‘are you kidding? For gods sake, no they are not, alright?!’ Not entirely sure this response is necessary from someone who is working in the hospitality industry. The other younger member of staff were nice. Just a shame about the woman who spoke to me like that.

The team worked endlessly today from start to finish on an extremely busy armed forces day! Even paid for portable toilets as all public toilets in Cleethorpes closed BRAVO Oliver’s

. There are very few places I have visited were I use the word hostile as a compliment. I had the misfortune of visiting Olivers eatery on Cleethorpes Promenade, on Sunday 6th of May... Now don't get me wrong I'm sure the food is perfectly adequate.. however the service is far is not! My daughter is profoundly autistic with no communication and she wanted to use the toilet (what I considered a basic human right). On entering the café her care worker asked a staff member if they could use the facilities the staff ignored her so she asked again the staff still ignored her she asked again and the manager came over and started to interrogate us on our purchases saying we had to buy something to use the toilets. By this time my daughter had an accident. While I understand the need to only let customers use the facilities the attitude of the staff and management could do with some much needed training. A shocking display of disability discrimination and lack of empathy makes me never want to return.

We arrived half an hour before closing for a snack. We were ignored by all staff members, who were all busy chatting to one another. When we were greeted it was by a very loud woman who basically shouted “we close in 30 mins and I want to go home” the other staff members continued to ignore us and we walked out. So if you are looking to feel uncomfortable, this is the place for you!

Came here recently as a family of 5 whilst we were waiting to check in to our accommodation. We didn’t have food but all ordered a drink and sat outside, plenty of seating available and although quite busy we did manage to get a seat. Great place for people watching and looking at the views of the beach and the sea. All staff friendly and polite would definitely return if in the area again.

I just wanted a full English, the lady serving couldn't seem less interested I asked for no mushrooms and no tomatoes and to just swap them for another item. Sat down my tea arrived and the food followed 5 mins later. The plate turns up with a single sausage a rasher of bacon a hash brown an egg and a thimble of beans. Confused I checked how much I'd paid and it was the same as on the menu. I explained what had happened to another lady who explained that they don't do "swaps" and if I wanted another item I would have to pay extra to replace the items I didn't want. I work up and down the UK and have never experienced this.

I’ve eaten breakfast here a few times now and felt compelled to write a review. There is a broad range of food available and the staff are accommodating at making any dietary changes. It’s consistent, food is tasty, hot and well cooked. The service is good but it gets so busy, every time I have eaten here, it’s been full. A good sign of course, but make sure you book in advance. I’ve eaten in cleethorpes a lot. This is one of the best places.

Went to Cleethorpes for a weekend visit with the grandchildren. Stopped off at Olivers for coffee, cake and ice cream on Saturday morning. The food and service was so good that we decided to have lunch there on Sunday before heading home. We weren’t disappointed. The food and service was again without fault despite them being extremely busy. We have already decided to eat there on future visits to Cleethorpes rather than risk costly meals at other eateries that fall far short of Oliver’s standards.

First time here for breakfast and will certainly be back. The place itself was very clean and tidy with excellent Covid measures still in place.We ordered the Large English and the Regular English. Both meals came quickly and were well cooked. The food was very tasty and there was more than enough to keep us going all day.The prices were in line with everywhere else. If you are going after about 09.30 might be worth booking a table as it is so popular.

We had x2 tubs of ice cream from here - one with x3 scoops and x1 with 2. All 5 flavours were lovely and really strong in flavour and really, really generous scoops. To top it off they were really good value, not what you expect right on the seafront - not overpriced at all. Would definitely go out of my way to go here if visiting cleethorpes again

Started out well ! Lovely warm day eating ice creams and drink on the tables outside then Totally rude owner !!! Avoid ! I waited behind the line that says ‘wait to be seated !! ‘I needed to go to the toilet so stood to the side between the post and the line , if I’m honest didn’t realise we had to wait for the toilet as it wasn’t on the notice and I noticed a few before me going, the person ! Owner ! On his laptop in the corner ! Began shouting wait there!! Loud enough for everyone drinking and eating outside to hear ! The conversation more shouting at me, begin saying do you know how many people a day like you! I have to deal with ! Really !!! I was a customer of who spent over £20 on drinks and ice creams, and then he said I moved the notice post ! I did not !!! I stood in between them to the side !! He came over in my face while I’m stood behind the line, still shouting although his apparent reason was the music is on ! No way I think all of cleethorpes heard him, I shook my head in total disbelief that he thinks it’s ok to speak to anyone like that ! He laughed and returned to his seat saying wait there use hand sanitizer! I explain I would be doing this review and he said well I will do a review on you ! Really I was a customer that misread the sign, stood to the side between the rope line and the side post and was full on shouted at !! Then was told to just leave ! The staff working behind wouldn’t give me his details either saying “I don’t want to get involved”. involved in what a full grown man shouting at his customers! I have never ever been spoken to in such a disgusting manner ! He refused to give me his name! Clearly he doesn’t deserve customers like me that spends money and made a mistake! The notice should say wait to be seated or the toilet ! I’m afraid I will never return as he really doesn’t understand how to speak to people and shouting at customers is plane wrong on every level

My wife and myself visited Oliver's many times over a period of years .Each visit has been a pleasure The food is always good and great value .Over those years one or two changes have been made with the staff most are extremely nice girls with the odd exception of the staff who doesnt seem to know how to smile and looks so serious . However the rest of the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Of course the food remains it's great value .I think it says a great deal when I can say I witness a lady thanking the management for an excellent breakfast and sending her gest wishes to the chef .Oliver's have really pulled themselves out of the doldrums that the pandemic has caused so well done to all concerned .

Always choose Oliver’s for the Sunday walk rare brekkie stop and I have to say today was unusually bad. Bacon butty was shockingly nasty. Fatty tasteless bacon, felt it was a cheap choice and the bun was spongy. Won’t be doing that again anytime soon. Oh and by the way, your not allowed to use the toilet as a customer, not great for anyone especially those with disabilities, hidden or otherwise. Toilets are open now in eateries so I guess it’s a case of staff don’t want to clean them? Saving grace was the tea and coffee. Normally such good food but today was an epic fail in more ways than one.

Take away service and seating outside only due to covid restrictions. Other than this it is business as usual ! Good choice of drinks and snacks and more substantial meals. Customers are asked to use the governments covid tracing app if they stay at premises as opposed to take away. Happy, efficient and friendly staff. Place your order at the window and pick up from collection table outside. They even have a water stop for any thirsty dogs !

Unfortunately due to government restrictions Oliver's restaurant has had to stay closed but this hasnt deterred The Management and staff from giving an excellent take away service. Their usual polite and swift service I my opinion leaves them second to none .In spite of the problems Covid 19 has incurred upon them it's nice to see that nothing has been taken out on their customers like a rise in prices . I can safely reccomend them to anyone. Well done all .

We visited here several times during a Monday to Friday stay in Cleethorpes. You can sit outside which was a big appeal for us due to having a dog with us. We tried several dishes including fish and chips, full English breakfast and kebabs, all tasty and cooled well. The prices are also very reasonable and you can have a two course deal. We were too full for desserts at the time but they packaged them up for us to enjoy later. The cheesecake was particularly tasty. I would visit here again and they also seemed to take Covid seriously and make sure that you are safe. Lovely to see an independent restaurant doing well.

After a long break Oliver's has now reached normality .Or at least as far as the food and service is concerned. Social distancing is still spoiling things but true to form Oliver's and their staff have reached their potential . Also true to form their food is as always and nothing has been lost .Prices are still low and competitive as before which surprises me as most places have had big increases due to the epidemic and loss of income .I'd like to personally thank their staff for the cheerful, friendly no trouble service they give .Well done to Olivers and their staff .

Just been for a tea and some donuts. First of all the the young lady with the blonde hair and red top who served me took £10 off me and forgot to give me £5 change. Then she brought the teas our and slammed them on the table. Then 5 mins later she brought my donuts out and almost threw them at me without saying a word. The donuts and tea were very nice, however this young waitress really needs some training in her manners! That being said when I went to the loo, a lovely young lady asked for my details for track and trace and was really nice. Talk about chalk and cheese!

What a relief it was to see Oliver's back open .After all that time closed walking in and being greeted with the same old friendly faces was a delight .Oliver's has had it's set back due to covid 19 but theyve managed to regain their regular customers who like me enjoy their good food and friendly staff .Oliver's have managed inspite of rising prices to keep their prices down unlike their competitors .Their food is still the tops . My meal there was the meat pie which I always enjoy .All their pies and sweets are home Made and I can recommend anything you choose .My odd conversations with the management tells me that they are completely friendly and happy to indulge in conversation with customers , Theyve always time for them even at their busiest times .

Stopped for a cuppa this monday eve. It looked as though the kiosk may have been closing for the evening so I asked the girl politely ''are you closing?'' Her reply was actually a retort ''JUST A MINUTE'' followed a moment later by WHAT DO YOU WANT? I almost responded with a retort of my own but said ''just a tea please''. ''ONE FIFTY'' was the irritable response from the girl....my partner saw the look on my face and asked me what was wrong as she was surprised by my own lack of a thankyou when I took the tea. I had to say to the girl... ''when I or anyone asks whether you are closing the expected reply is a simple yes or no''! This is not the first time I/we have experienced such rudeness there but it is the last time we buy anything from there! I wish I'd said ....You wouldn't like anyone to speak to your Mother or Father like that would you?

For most businesses the last number of weeks have been extremely hard ,Covid 19 has had extreme effects on businesses including catering . I have to congratulate Olivers restaurant for all the hard work they're putting in to getting themselves back on an even keel . The restaurant side has had to suffer but the take away service has been second to none .Both the management and staff have as always been welcoming and helpful in times if stress. I'm sure the restaurant will get back to it's normal excellent self once goverment restrictions are lifted .Meanwhile I'm sure and hope that people who have always supported this family business will continue to do so in their hour of need so to speak .Of course theres always trippers who think they can visit spend a few quid then think they can throw their weight around and bad mouth but I challenge these people to do better , Theres no pleasing some people .Congratulations Oliver's for your excellent service throughout this epidemic Your health and safety regarding toilets as far as I'm concerned is excellent.

Queued for quite a while there are worse places than on the sea front with views over the Humber in sunshine. We decided to eat inside because it was quite breezy outside but we were distanced from other diners and had given contact details.They were busy so there was a wait but so worth it. The 10oz haddock was obviously very fresh, absolutely delicious with just right amount of crip hot chips. A simple dish but so many chippies struglle to get right. Not Oliver's, they were spot on!

Due to personal reasons it had been a number of weeks from my last visit .So when I revisited It was a lovely feeling when I got a lovely greeting asking me how things had been .The staff here are a lovely welcoming crew . I'd arrived a little later than I planned but it wasn't a problem to them they quickly found me a table and I soon felt comfortable. My experience there has taught me that their food is always most enjoyable .A quick look at the specials board showed me they had braised steak, one if my favourites so I didn't need asking twice I ordered it and just as I expected it was delicious .I followed it with one of their homemade sweets , banoffee which U always enjoy and once again I was well pleased with my choice . Oliver's is one of those places that's consistent with their food , I've found I can never go far wrong there .Another personal favourite is their all day breakfast I always enjoy those as well .I think it's hard to deny that fir good food and value, service and friendliness Oliver's is the place to go .You never need worry about going there, their food us first class and the restaurant is supported by the facts the washrooms are always clean. The management wouldnt have it any other way .I've witnessed young mothers with prams there have problems with seating . Problems , no theres no problem the staff are always willing to help if they can.

Over the years I've eaten at many places in and around Cleethorpes but I always return to Oliver's. I've always been greeted with a warm welcome , I've witnessed how they deal with their customers and have found the staff do what they can to oblige peoples individual needs .ie wheel chairs etc .The food there is always to my liking one of my favourites is minted lamb which I can reccomend .Having said that you cant go far wrong with anything you have .Mainly speaking the food there us home cooking with home made desserts to follow if desired .A deliberate effort is obviously made to keep the prices reasonable but not at the risk of putting the quality of the food or quantity at a sub standard. The food is always, in my opinion delicious and I always enjoy it Portions are good so you wont go away hungry ..Mr and Mrs Dacombe the owners are very particular about cleanliness and you wont be able to miss how clean the Restaurant is.The toilets there are always spotless . Anything you buy from their ice cream shop which is part of the building is always cheaper than the surrounding competitor's which us also s plus.Private functions can also be catered for ,Mr Dacome will always liaise for any entertainment needed .

Well worth a visit if your in Cleethorpes, however as I have previously posted in other reviews the parking in Cleethorpes is a joke and is/could affect local business- you can’t Park anywhere without paying between £1.00 to £4.00 for parking, a shame because more people would spend longer in the area if it was free or cheaper. I must have spent around £25 on parking during my 1 week stay

What a hidden little gem. Took my mum for a Sunday roast and I had braised steak. An absolutely lovely tasty meal, great portions too. We both had dessert which was delicious - and home made! My mum has mobility issues and it was great to see walking frames available, a sloping entry access and my mum also commented that the toilet was at just the right height and felt very safe. I will most definitely eat here again, was absolutely stuffed by the time we finished

We have been here before in summer for Ice cream which was very nice and not expensive. On another day out to Cleethorpes we needed to stop for a drink and a simple snack. We parked on the promenade not far away. It's a small but very pleasant place, nicely decorated, clean, and with a very good varied menu, a specials board, and a massive choice of soft and alcoholic drinks. Staff were polite and service prompt. We had a pot of tea and toasted teacakes which were fresh and toasted just right. Not expensive either at £8 for the above for 2 people. Will definitely go again

Having toured round the area and trying various restaurants I always arrive at the same conclusion .You wont get better service ,better food at fair prices anywhere around Cleethorpes.I never fail to get a more friendly reception or smile. This is backed up by the staff and management doing everything they can to help you when help is needed .The food they serve is always a good meal at a faire price .Their sweets are home made as are their cakes which always taste delicious .I have to admit that the mest pies are brilliant .Plenty of meet and the pastry spot on.The attached ice cream parlour also sells plenty of other sweets which to be honest are cheaper than any other establishment on the South Pier .I dont know his he does it. You cant go wrong with anything you buy in their restaurant but J do have to say if they have minted lamb on well try it and spoil yourself.

Love this place for breakfast. Very friendly service, very helpful and the breakfast is always well presented and most importantly uses good quality ingredients. The weekday deal for two breakfasts with drinks is really good value too.

This is an excellent place to eat and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a place to eat. The place is very clean and the staff are very helpful.You can sit inside or if the weather allows you can sit outside to eat. The food is cooked fresh to order my favourite was the American Breakfast I can still taste it now ha ha.

Looks better than it is. Staff are rude and barely acknowledge you. Latte (which means milk in Italian by the way) was watery and barely drinkable. Had to ask for a spoon and serviettes and was met with a sense if unwillingness. Even though choice is limited along the seafront, I wont be returning. I find it hard to believe it's got mainly positive reviews.

Stopped for whippy type ice cream - vanilla with flake. Very creamy indeed. Pleasant service and high standard of cleanliness. We now know where to go for Ice cream. Will try the restaurant next time as it looked very popular

We love the opportunity to go to Oliver’s for breakfast. We always receive a warm welcome and despite the staff being busy they’re attentive ensuring we are ok and have everything we need.

We visited on a busy Sunday lunchtime having booked a table as we’d heard how busy this place does get. The cooked breakfast was excellent my husband assured me, and my daughter’s bacon and egg bun was a winner too, with two good rashers of thick bacon served in a lovely soft roll.My minced beef pie with new potatoes & veg was really tasty, with lovely extra gravy which is always nice to see! My mum in law had the chicken breast with new pots veg & gravy- they don’t offer a Sunday roast during the summer we were told- but this was a perfect alternative.

I think it is fare to say that Jonathan and his family have worked extremely hard over the past 9 years to build a business/eatery that accommodates both local people and visitors.

I've been reading some of the negative reviews and I find them extremely hard to swallow .I d been a customer of Olivers for s number of years now and I have never found any of the accusations yo be true in fact quite the reverse , I find the management and their staff extremely helpful in fact I've known them under extreme stress but they always manage a friendly word and smile .Jve never had a bad meal there and un fact I've enjoyed I've had. In this day and age with the rising cost of gas and electricity I'm very much surprised st how theyve managed to keep their prices down as far as they are.Anyone who criticises their prices as being high need to get in the real world and try running a business any cheaper especially when you e plot staff oh yes they want paying too after all good service is expected and that's what you get.Dureing the forces weekend Mr Dacombe out of his own pocket paid for extra toilets to be a available for everyone at no charge and purely because he cares So full Mark's there Sir

Great service and food; what a start to the day! Staff also patient with our augmented orders! Not sure why other establishments don’t use quorn sausages these days.

I'm going to start this review by stating I have never left a negative review ever! Today myself and my friends was made to feel embarrassed and belittled in front of an audience! After a nice afternoon down the sea front we decided to treat our 4 year girls to an ice cream and enjoy a refreshing beer at Oliver's Cafe as in the past we have enjoyed spending time there with our families. We'd been there a couple of ours as our girls enjoyed playing on the grass area next to the cafe. Towards the end of the afternoon they had ACCIDENTALLY knocked over one of the cafe's advertising flag. They came straight to us and told us which we then told them off and was about to leave. With this an older lady began to have ago at all of us telling us we should have been watching and that our girls were naughty. We had been watching and was dealing with the situation. We asked the lady to speak to us with a little more respect as we had dealt with the situation. We was then confronted by a server asking us to be more respectful. I will also add that her shouting had woken up my 12 week old daughter. We was then confronted by the chef/owner who asked us not to shout at his mother! I would also like to state I am not one for confrontation as I find it very uncomfortable but today i was made to defend myself and my friends. By this point our girls was crying their eyes out apologising. I have NEVER been made to feel so belittled. As we left two families that witnessed the dispute told us they thought the owners was in the wrong and shouldn't have acted in such a way. All i ask if there had been a problem is they confronted us in a more private matter.

Stopped here this morning after reading the online reviews. We headed down to the prom before our journey north today. We’d passed this place on our walk the day before and remembered where it was. We ordered the breakfast special of two large full English breakfasts plus tea or coffee for £12.50. The coffee was delicious decent coffee with a lotus biscuit. The breakfast was huge! Two sausage, two egg, two bacon, two hash brown, beans, mushrooms and tomatoes. Plus a slice of toast and butter. The sausages and bacon were fabulous quality. The mushrooms were cooked in butter and were full of flavour. I hadn’t a hope of clearing the plate but I ate much more than I usually would because it was all delicious. My two boys ordered an American breakfast (3 pancakes with maple syrup, 2 sausage, 2 bacon and two eggs. I asked for an extra plate and my 10 & 12 year old boys split it between them and still couldn’t finish it. Lovely food, smart venue too. You can tell how good it is by the fact that on a Monday morning it was teaming with customers when everywhere else was quiet. Fabulous.

Visited Oliver’s on the Bank holiday Monday. After arriving early and parking up we looked for a place to have a good breakfast and set us up for the day. We hadn’t been to Cleethorpes for some years and didn’t know what to expect. We were all pleasantly surprised the place was very clean and very busy. Full breakfasts were very good, all freshly cooked and not too expensive. Teas coffee and soft drinks were also good.

Absolutely love the food here better than pub grub, taste and looks home made! Very reasonable prices and good selection of foods and drink from breakfast to Sunday dinners! It is quite small in their but that doesn’t put me off if you are to go with any more than 2 of you I would recommend booking a table. 100% would recommend eating here down Cleethorpes!

Can’t fault the place, Oliver’s is our go-to in cleethorpes for good food reasonably priced!! I’d like to say i’ve tried everything on the menu i’ve been that many times but i just cant resist a full english! Everything is such good value, a full english in cleethorpes that is piping hot, good quality ingredients and less than £8 is hard to find. Its always rammed in here yet the staff are always friendly and attentive will continue to come here. P.s the dog icecream is a hit with baxter!!!

We popped in for a coffee and the venue is nice inside. Unfortunately the coffee was very poor. Over-heated milk and stale coffee.

Called in mid Sunday afternoon with a craving for a bacon butty with brown sauce. Served just what we needed, loads of well cooked bacon in a big floury bap and a bottle of sauce with no questions asked. Neighbouring tables outside were enjoying bottles of wine to go with their meals, but pot of tea and a coke did us fine. £9 all in. Set me up for the walk/ drive home. oh, you need the security number on your receipt to get in the loo and weirdly there was a queue for the gents apparently?!

Called in to Oliver's for breakfast with the wife this morning..... all because she wanted one lol .... although all the staff are kind and more than polite I only had one mission on my mind and that was to get breakfast, my wife ordered a large and not wanting to let the side down i made it two large... this was the start of my dismise. On seeing what the Chefs placed in front of both of us. I can only say it would be a mammoth task for any individual. I'm sure that they must have felt that something was up what all i could manage was the beans and plum tomatoes. I left my plate looking like it hadn't been touched where as the wife's plate looked like it had been part of a raid from a group of refugees.

Some places in Cleethorpes only give you 4 doughnuts for £2 but Oliver’s is one of the few where you get 5. The staff are very friendly and the food is great too.

I cannot believe the bad reviews. My husband and I have been twice and both times we have been met by lovely friendly staff and the food is great. My husband had mixed grill and I had braising steak and veg and we were absolutely stuffed when we'd finished. We had a meal deal which included a drink and a dessert for £16 for the two of us.. We had the cake put in a takeaway bag as we couldn't eat it we were so full. A gem of a place.

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.
