People Bar and Kitchen in North East Lincolnshire

What more to say other that the title, brilliant food and drinks it’s just a shame about the type of people it attracts. You know the kind, d**kheads who try to look good and “pull birds”. More commonly known and curbys. Just absolutely not the type of people you want to be around. 10/10 food. 1/10 customers. 10/10 would recommend to anybody wanting their night ruined by jacked up little boys who think they’re gods gift.

Having tried many venues in cleethorpes this recent few months this venue really was different to the rest. Great drinks and nice staff well done guys

To say disappointed would be an understatement. A group of friends looking forward to trying this place for the first time, were left in total disbelief. One of my friends had booked a table a few weeks previous for 7:30pm for 7 people. We arrived at 7:25 ready for what we heard would be a good night of food&drink. On arrival my friend told the barman that the party of 7 had arrived for 7:30 booking, he just looked at her and said “ I’m just standing in tonight, I don’t know anything about your booking plus Chef is off sick!!” If we hadn’t turned up without a phone call I’m sure the owner/manager would be pretty peed off. So as you can imagine we all were very unhappy with the situation, not even a complementary drink was offered. So I can’t tell you what the food was like and to be honest I probably won’t be able to in the future, as not sure if we’ll be going back. A BIG thank you to “ Jamal’s Kitchen for getting us a table ready for 7 hungry friends. I’ve given one circle for PB&K because I had to. 😡

Lovely meal and drinks with friends over the weekend. Good choice on the menu, really enjoyed my burger. The place is a bit small but intimate

Visited people bar before but never eaten there. Fabulous speciality homemade burger , I had the nut job, burger with peanut butter and chilli jam , unusual but amazing. Great chef, Bar staff super efficient and friendly too well done all

The People Bar is a small intimate space where you can get wholesome, delicious home prepared food, much in the style of family run European eateries. We had simple dishes of lasagne and a pizza and these were made from good basic ingredients, tasting wholesome, ‘real’, and a far cry from the pre-prepared, processed meals you so often encounter in similar British outlets. The staff are polite, friendly and informed about what they’re doing. They’re doing a great job in Cleethorpes, providing a welcome alternative to the majority of mainstream food establishments. Well worth a visit or three!

Like a micro pub with food but unfortunately no real ale. Only four or five customers having an afternoon drink. I liked the ambience of the place. The draught "craft" beer was ok. I'd go again and try food sometime.

Minimum portions, maximum prices, miserable service! Have been several times before and enjoyed it but on this occasion the food and service were sadly lacking.

The breakfast was bloody amazing and presentation was fab, they also cook it right behind you! Place is so tiny though so book if you really want a table.

Barmaid sat doing nothing, place empty, plastic cups on floor, no toilet roll, bins over flowing, beer garden stacked with junk so couldn't sit out Terrible experience, we choose to spend our hard earned cash in these places... we must be mugs

Been to People Bar 3 times in the last couple of weeks and I wish I lived closer, it's brilliant! Breakfast are great - eggy bread, black pudding, poached eggs - evening food good too. Loads of drinks to choose from - couple of draught ales, bottled beers and winds and spirits. All chosen to match the vibe of the place

Having booked a table after viewing the restaurants (??) gallery and menu on line, i was soon to be very disappointed ! Entered to find the place is very small indeed, and can only cater for 10-12 customers, with a mish-mash of tables. Having seen Rioja on the wine list, i was informed the only Red they had was a Malbec, which was fine but disappointing. Had to sit at a High bench with my back to the room and close to the bar; so i was brushed against every time someone went passed. Still undeterred, with the menu in my hand i searched the walls of the room (not easy when everythings behind you) for the main dishes.... As advertised on line, and as per the menu the Main Course would be on the specials board, of which there was one; not board...Main dish ! I asked the waitress what the mains were and was told to look at the board. If we hadn't already started drinking the wine i would have walked out at that point. So we decided to order an Anti-pasta sharer, and then look for somewhere else to eat. There seemed to be a lot on the board that we were served, but none of it was hand made, all straight from a packet/jar, and not worth the 25 pounds it cost.

We ordered 3 plates plus bread between two of us expecting (given the overall price - £23) to walk away having had a good meal. We ordered the scotch egg, Camembert and king prawns. There was a single scotch egg which cost £6. It was very tasty but was literally a single scotch quails egg... looking at the pictures this should have come with coleslaw and something else with a sauce on it. There was 2 king prawns and tartar sauce for £6.50. Very tasty but again, we had 1 each! and then sat there twiddling our thumbs. The Camembert was £7 and came baked inside a bread loaf. This was actually fairly reasonably priced but was overshadowed by the ridiculous price of the previous two. We also had house 'breads'. There was one bread cut into 3 slices for £3.50. We maintain the food is very tasty but unacceptably high priced for what was actually received. In hindsight we should have mentioned this at the time but the plates came out individually and we assumed more would follow. For £23 between two people to receive half a scotch egg, a king prawn, half a Camembert and a slice and a half of bread EACH is not good value for money. We came away happy with the food but quite unhappy with the price. This would easily have been a 5* review had we paid £15-18 or had we received more food (or what was assuredly supposed to have been included with the scotch eggs).

This is the second time we have visited and we have never been disappointed. Great selection of drinks and wine. The food is different and the meat and cheese platters are to die for. In was surprised by the different combinations of cheese, meat and fruit but it works. A must try for anyone. The staff are always friendly and nothing is too much trouble, a nice touch and a great addition to the building Cleethorpes eateries.

We went on a Friday night. The bar got busy very quickly between 7.30 and 8pm. If you haven't been, the place is small with a range of seating and tables at varying heights. We were at a bistro style table. Behind me was a chap on a stool so, at times, I was uncomfortably close to his elbows. If you don't like people invading your personal space then perhaps this place isnt for you. We wanted to share some starters on the menu. They were listed as small dishes. It said to ask the chef or see the Specials board for the mains. There was a board on the wall displaying 'specials'. After placing our order, one of the dishes being on the specials board. We were told by the male waitor that we couldnt have it because it was a lunch option. Despite the menu saying the mains were served from 5pm until 10pm daily. We asked the waitor what we could have and he said he didnt know. I think it may have been it first day or was standing in. The female manager/chef said that the meatball melt was a lunchtime option. I asked what we could order and she said I could have the curry or the lasagne. I asked how I would know this seeing as how these dishes (as well as the meatball melt) were all on the specials board. She said that they were getting new boards to make clear what was a lunch option and what was on the evening specials. We ordered bread, olives with oils, camembert topped with roasted figs, pistacios and chutney and the scallops with pancetta and pea puree. The olives came with no oil, the camembert was not topped with figs and there was no pancetta with the three scallops. We only really noticed this towards the end. The food was alright. I would recommend the camembert. The place had a good selection of beers.

Estupendo ver Brett Tienes muchas ganas de ir en la cocina tan pronto como entramos. Tenía un hermoso desayuno de huevos escalfados y salmón ahumado en un panecillo con salsa casera deliciosa salsa holandesa. Con tuberías café caliente, un comienzo más perfecto para el día que no podía desear.

Host with the mostest.Fantastic host, superb food, great ale.Everything we could ask for and more.Will definitely be back to sample more!

Banging! Turned a lovely afternoon in Cleethorpes into a great one!Warm, friendly with treacle tunes...(Best pint in TOWN! Prohibition on draught)Having recently returned from Naples, I can assure you that the Carbonara was onpoint. I will gladly take the Pepsi challenge on that one too...10/10

Having spent a ladies afternoon shopping and lunching in Seaview Street my friend and I went to the bar for a couple of drinks before going home-£20 was handed to a "waiter" in an ellesse top - we were then told that we owed money for the drinks by the barmaid even though the other 2 couples in there had seen us hand money over - not impressed we walked out and left the drinks - zero people skills!

Such a fantastic place to eat and drink. Delicious food with a new unique menu, and great atmosphere with as good service. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Last night I visited People Bar & Kitchen to taste their exciting new Autumnal menu. We tried a large selections of the dishes available and all I can say is WOW. If, like me, you are always unsure on what to order as your worried about 'food envy', this menu is for you! Similar to tapas style dining this menu gives you the option to share small bits of everting with friends and family while conversation over great wine and ales. The little plates menu has a variety of options that I am sure will cater for everyone’s palette, ranging from baked cheeses, warm breads and homemade condiments, not forgetting the amazing fish selection. A favourite of mine was the baked camembert in a homemade cob bread, accompanied by figs, pistachios and over course garlic and rosemary for flavour! A great ‘tear and share’ option. A recommended place to go with Christmas looming and social gatherings taking place, People Bar & Kitchen new menu is the perfect starter for a great night. As always, great customer service with excellent atmosphere, in a newly painted, clean and welcoming venue.

It's the smallest place I've ever been in which gives it a very different vibe. Service was great with a good selection of bottled craft beers. Had a cheese platter as the didn't have any meat selection. It looked good but know wow flavours. Friendly atmosphere

Called in for a drink. Very very small! Not quite the smallest bar (mini railway wins that) but small!Venue really clean. Copper pans at the bar.. menus on the wall.. stripped back walls.. add a charm to the place. Didn't eat any food... but all sounded really nice.Draft craft lager and an American IPA on draft too. A fridge full of various bespoke beers. Wines a plenty too. For such a small place it has many more choices than most massive chain places!The lady behind the bar was really welcoming and the punters were also friendly and chatty. For an intimate venue it was really good.My only complaint would be the wine glass looked quite murky. The Sun shone into the bar onto it.. and really showed up watermarks, faded lipstick and smears. This is the only thing I would say they need to keep an eye on as everything else was superb.

It is easy to miss this little gem. With a fantastic selection of alcohol, it has great sandwiches and lovely decor. Worth visiting for an afternoon tipple. Get there early or it will be a tight squeeze getting through the door.

Great atmosphere, great food, great friendly staff! Love this place, highly recommended. The breakfast was fantastic, I'm a very fussy eater & got exactly what I asked for.

What a great visit to People Bar! Fantastic food, company and fine selection of wines and beers. Amazing! The menu is wonderfully put together and Brett is a pure gentleman!

Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Great beer. Great food. What more could you ask for? Absolutely love it at People Bar; whether it's a Friday night or a chilled out Sunday afternoon, there's something for everyone. Highly recommend their antipasti boards - the best I've ever had. Brett and the rest of the team are incredibly friendly and accommodating. Quirky, unique and full of character - the best bar in Cleethorpes, hands down.

The little gem in cleethorpes. A must to visit always a friendly welcome from the owner and staff .. customers also all very approachable. .

Every time I walk into People Bar, I'm reminded of the theme song to the 70's comedy Cheers - 'Where Everybody Knows Your Name'. It's not that everybody does, it's just that Brett manages to create an atmosphere that perfectly blends serving customers with friendly conversation whilst respecting one's privacy. Quite a skill - maybe he's Cleethorpes answer to Ted Danson.My wife chose the poached egg and avocado on toast, and I chose the People Sandwich, a tasty platter mix of bread, pickles, hummus, cheese and meat. For me, it's completely unreasonable to expect a small establishment to stock every menu item every single day. My suggestion is to let Brett suggest various options based on what he has available and choose from those - you really won't be disappointed.The house Tempranillo went very well with the cheese and meat, while my wife went for her favourite Old Mout lime cider. Personally, I could eat a light lunch here every day of the week, and can't recommend the place highly enough. The five star hygiene rating was clear, with immaculate standards on display. A splendid place to relax and unwind.

Great little treat today at People's Bar , had the People's sandwich. Yum yum Best little bistro in the north , I have visited several times and have never been disappointed. Lovely relaxed atmosphere highly recommend .

I had never heard of this place until I won a meal for two in a charity fun run, so I was rather intrigued to see what the experience was like and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The venue is very small with a shabby chic decor that gives a feeling of intimacy, the selection of drinks was excellent (choosing a Beaujolais rather than Cabernet was a treat) and the food was delicious. We chose the antipasti option and when it came we thought that it would not be enough for three of us yet we left feeling satisfied and no sign of hunger pangs. Well worth a visit.

A small bar and restaurant. If busy feels a touch claustrophobic. Ate a small lunch meal here. The offerings are different from the norm. We had "Our Grandad's catch" and "The Peoples Sandwich". Two of the cheese options requested for the sandwich were not available. The cheese on the fishcakes was not served! If you read the menu description of Grandads catch It sounds great but the offering I received was not the same. What we had was quite nice and for the price I suppose portions although small were suitable. This time there were only two people present and it took longer than expected for the meals to arrive. Once other customers started to arrive the one member of staff could not cope and service was slow and erratic. One of the beers we wanted was not available. The door is always kept open here and on cooler days it is cold inside, Need to bring a jumper to eat here sometimes particularly with the back door always open. They will not close the front door for your comfort. There is a small patio area out back which is really a smoking area so stay clear if you don't smoke.

As a former local now living down south I have to say I was pleasantly surprised to find such a quirky little place on my recent visit home.The concept of this place is to encourage strangers to talk and make friends, and that's exactly what we did. We didn't try the food but the drinks and new found friends were truly wonderful.If your in the area give it a go, you'll be happy you did.

What can I say, that hasn't already been said? A great little Gem hidden away in cleethropes, fantastic atmosphere, amazing food in an intimate setting! Perfect venue to relax and unwind with friends!

This place has had a lot of publicity locally as I understand that there have been some issues with planning consent and complaints from neighbours, so we thought we would go and see what all the fuss was about.It is indeed a quirky place, in a tiny old house close to Seaview street in Cleethorpes, and quite different to a lot of the local places. We visited at breakfast time and it wasn't busy, but at capacity it probably holds only 20 or so people. We were there early morning but there still seemed to be a bit of a mess from the night before, a stack of empty bottles in the yard and cigarette butts on the ground. We ordered breakfast, and it took around 20 mins to arrive, which given that we were the only customers seemed a bit long.The food store is at the back of the courtyard and the food is cooked in the bar, so we saw the member of staff make several journeys from one to the other carrying uncovered food.Our food was ok, but served on trendy slate rather than plates. I was a bit concerned about the hygiene of this, particularly given the state of the tea cups which were stained and dirty.The other thing of concern was the outside toilet in the yard, which was clean enough but I was put off using as it was so close to the area where customers were sitting !It's a shame, because it offers something a bit different in sleepy Cleethorpes, but I'm not sure I will be rushing back.

Quirky yes - clean noThe very small courtyard is also the beer barrel store and wheelie bin store area. Empty milk bottles used as a cigarette butt bin. Cigarette butt ends and matches all over the floor there are only two tables and one of them was very grubby.If you can ignore that and the fact that one person smoking outside fills the whole courtyard area with smoke then ok but it might put non smokers off. If you can stand all that then see what you think when someone walks past and goes into the outside loo right next to you while you are sat on the patio chair where you can then hear every noise from the loo.Don't expect any refinements here....

My husband had seen the website for this venue and so we made a special trip to have breakfast. We received a friendly greeting and promptly sat down. The venue is very small, but has been quirkily decorated. Unfortunately the back door was left open, so it was beyond draughty and I sat in my coat shivering. When the breakfasts arrived they were beautifully presented, which is always a great start. Unfortunately from here onwards I began to feel disappointed; my cup was stained and had a stained inside; my cutlery was unclean with obvious egg yoke residue on my fork; the breakfast looked great, but my egg yoke was over-cooked and not runny; the sausage cage. was pink in the middle, so pink in fact that I didn't dare eat it. From a promising start, it quickly went down-hill. From the breakfast served I only ate the egg and the toast, as I'd declined the black pudding and passed the streaky, smoked bacon onto my husband's plate. Would I return? NO! Great menu, but if the cleanliness and comfort are poor and the food is not cooked correctly, then not a lot of point going! I know the venue has limited space and I marvelled at how the breakfasts were cooked, but if it's not edible them it's missing the whole point. I think only one person cooking/ taking orders/ clearing tables and washing up is not enough. When we arrived there were just 2 others in the restaurant, but there were seven others when by the time we left. Better to do less and do it brilliantly than try to do more than is possible.

The peoples bar and kitchen is a brilliant , tiny pub that serves some great food. Just before the bottom end of sea view street , it is easy to miss with very discreet signage and door laws over winter months ! However it is well worth a visit. Probably 20 people and interior is full ? However there is also a small open air courtyard to the rear of premises. Food platters- cheese or meat or mixed are different to your average pub food and offer some great flavours / combinations and good value. Very friendly owner. I hear they now also serve breakfasts and will have to return to give that a try !

We stumbled across this little bar last summer and had the most delicious home made cake and great beer.We visit Cleethorpes 3 to 4 long week ends a year; and I was delighted to find that they now do breakfast, so decided to give it a try. The ingredient are of a very high quality, well cooked and beautifully presented. My only comment would be that I really wanted bread rather than muffin for breakfast, I guess the waitress miss heard my request. A really great place to relax and I highly recommend.Looking forward to our return visit and this time I will have the full breakfast.

Popped in for a quick lunch. Nice sharing platter with plenty for two and a reasonable price. Such a refreshing change from the usual in Cleethorpes. Great service will definitely be back.

Didn't have plans to go to People Bar, just happened to pass it and decided to give it a go and wasn't disappointed.Great craft beer and the other half had a cloudy lemonade.Tried the three cheese sharing platter which was more than enough for nothing of us. It came with humus, beetroot relish, olives, the three cheeses, olive oil and the most delicious bread, 3 types.Service was friendly, welcoming and efficient.Thoroughly enjoyed it, and going back to try breakfast very soon.

We had lunch at the People Bar. We did know a little about the place before visiting and this is a wise move. Lunch is...whatever comes in. And I like that. It's fresh, it's tasty & its lovingly made. The emphasis is on meat and cheese with home made pickles and dips. It's cosy & quite unique. I loved the food. Nice wine & ambience. Limited menu BUT that's exactly what we expected. Chefs choice is always a wise choice ;)

food was superb (followed owners recommendations ) wine superb (again left to owners recommendation ) atmosphere relaxed welcoming and warm can't rate highly enough

My wife & I shared the meat & cheese platter on this visit, the presentation was excellent and the food was delicious. We have visited a number of times & upon leaving we always look forward to returning. Brett the owner couldn't be more friendly & it seems to rub off on all the customers. A very quirky place , a visit is a must .There is an excellent selection of unusual beers with the Prohibition being my particular favourite, my wife's favourite is the Jack rabbit which is a lovely prosecco.

A perfect combination of friendly atmosphere and fantastic food. Always great service and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you are looking for a family meal, drinks with friends or a night with the missus People Bar can more than accommodate. A real asset to the town.

For such a small venue, this unique establishment offers a welcoming yet completely electric atmosphere with great food and quality music. Situated right in the heart of vibrant seaside town, Cleethorpes, this laid back bar serves a wide range of locally brewed ale and the finest wines. The menu is both contemporary and rustic much like the decor and with quirky contributions from local artists, the place oozes originality. Suitably named People Bar, it is always brimming with friendly folk. From the owners themselves and anyone lucky enough to work there, these people certainly know how to please, putting people first on the menu.

Love this little place, it's something different to everything else on offer in Cleethorpes . It's intimate perfectly formed surroundings make for a warm friendly atmosphere! Food is prepared in front of you with all locally sourced suppliers,and the array of different guest beers are definitely worth a try. Would highly recommend a visit.

Great little boutique style bar and restaurant. friendly atmosphere and welcoming for adults and children. A real niche in the Cleethorpes scene and a great addition to our community

This gorgeous little bar has fast become my go-to place in Cleethorpes. The quality of the food, drink and service is consistently excellent and it's a lovely retreat for great coffee and chatter. I'm looking forward to my next visit already.

Visit the bar regularly and it never fails to impress. Its friendly, warm atmosphere is perfect, something only complimented by its size. Excellent food and drink, exactly the type of place Cleethorpes has been needing!

On my first visit to people bar I had high expectations due to the masses of positive online feedback, I was overjoyed that this quirky place had exceeded them! Once you find this hidden treasure you'll surely not forget it, walking into the cozy bistro you will be greeted with the friendliest of faces and the finest selection of wines, spirits and unique beers on show. (All reasonably priced may I add!) The music and friendly punters adds to the laid back atmosphere which is created quite easily within the rustic four walls which makes it a fabulous place to meet with friends and make new ones! We only saw the food that was produced from such a tiny kitchen but we couldn't believe the standard and quality of the produce alongside the extensive knowledge and passion the owner possessed. People bar is an asset to Cleethorpes and I couldn't recommend it highly enough! (Especially the g&t's) Thanks guys for our new local!

Excellent evening with family and friends! Family from London came to visit for Christmas, we took them for a meal and drinks at People and they thoroughly enjoyed their evening. They stated it was the best place they had been since they started ti visit 8 years ago. We could not fault the atmosphere and welcoming energy within the place. The food was fantastic, we all shared a variety of cheeses, meats and homemade pickles and chutneys, this also added to the great experience. The drinks were fab and my sister in law loved the interesting selection of credit ales! my Father enjoyed the music played in the bar most. All his old favourites that all the family could enjoy that he said he has never heard a place play such a fantastic variety of music! Totally unique and a true asset to the owner!

Always a great night. Fab music, friendly staff and a brilliant atmosphere. Best bar in Cleethorpes!

Visited here with my work colleagues before Christmas, we enjoyed sampling all the different ales and the mulled wine. Yes it's small but that's part of its charm. Excellent!

We have visited People's Bar on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. We have had breakfast, lunch and just popped in for impromptu drinks on a Saturday afternoon. Brett is very welcoming and there is a unique feel to the place which we haven't come across anywhere else in Cleethorpes. We would highly recommend a visit.

Came to the people bar for the first time with friends for drinks and what can I say, atmosphere was great, staff very friendly and welcoming. Had a fantastic night. Fabulous place to be, highly recommended to all friends and family.

Great little place and perfect for Cleethorpes! Brett is always willing to help you in anyway he can, I've asked for all sorts from breakfast meetings to even playing some tunes in here! Always a great choice of drinks and the food is unreal! Always a good atmosphere in people bar with the staff being friendly and the people that use the place!Also Brett has helped out the community and donated money towards a number of things! One being towards track suit tops for a local football team which was a great help!Keep up the good work!! Definitely worth a visit, you won't find a better place in the area!

People bar really is a great place to go! Whether it be for a drink with friends or a delicious breakfast! It also has a great atmosphere 5* from me!

Best place in cleethorpes. Would highly recommend. A small gem in the heart of cleethorpes always a good atmosphere. Definitely the place to be.

Wow lovely little place with a great atmosphere, wonderful choice of special ales and the food is totally amazing, would recommend to all and will be visiting again soon.

My experiences at People Bar have been nothing but positive. Cool vibe, fabulous food, sociable, friendly and welcoming staff. Great for a gossip with the girls, as well as having the opportunity to chat to many new faces. The size is perfect and makes the atmosphere even more friendly. Highly recommended to all. All experiences have been extremely fulfilling and fun. It offers something very different in the town, no surprise it is so popular!!!!!

Always my favourite place to visit on a night out. Fantastic food, drinks and atmosphere. If you are passionate about taste it's a must and always full of lovely people. Looking forward to my next visit xxx

Came with a few friends a few weeks ago, Absolutely loved the bar incredibly unique and had such a lovely atmosphere, good food and drink as well! Shall definitely be returning

Visited just as the bar opened last year and really enjoyed the atmosphere. We had a sharing cheeseboard and it was gorgeous. Loved the added touching of being told where each ingredient was sourced.Really enjoyed the atmosphere of the bar and meeting the owner!

Can't fault it. Just the type of place Cleethorpes should be encouraging. A real gem, warm and welcoming. Definitely be back soon.

Great idea having something a bit different in Clee - cold meats and cheese board in a lovely setting with a really friendly owner.

It may be tiny but it is a great place to go for drinks and lunch/ dinner. Very small food preparation area and platters are the main offering- sort of tapas on a slate ! Presented well and tasted great ! Good selection of beers and wine available- small courtyard at rear accomodating smokers or dogs !! Reasonable prices.

An odd little place, but we did not know it was supposed to be a restaurant, and it would be difficult to class it as a restaurant !! This place is OK for a drink or two, but that is about the sum total. We were surprised to find that it managed to get planning permission from the local council.

You must visit this eatery/bar, a must to see and amazing choice of fun foo and drinks lovely staff welcoming you. Enjoy the great atmosphere in there, a fusion of Parisian nibbles and Milanese treats. Although the venue is small its packaged well and well worth a visit when in Cleethorpes or even in the Lincolnshire area.

Very small funky venueVery tasty foodContinental influenceInteresting use of space Worth a visit with a friend or a small group of 4 if you want to sit down together

We went a few weeks ago, booked as it's pretty small, traffic accident conspired against us but Brett took us in despite the late arrival and fed us well. If you like a wide menu to choose from then this is not the place for you, but if you are willing to chance it then you will be well fed and watered in this charming place. Try it!

Three of us arrived and luckily there was just one table free for three. The room was very small and crowded and everyone was huddled up in overcoats as the back door was stood open - it's November! We ordered coffee but there was none - they'd run out! After freezing on metal chairs some people left and we got some warmer more comfortable seating. The food was very good - a sharing plate of cured meats, cheese, bread and relishes. An amusing and memorable dining experience, but not one to be repeated.

Only visited once so far but will definitely return, went in for a drink a couple of weeks ago, well one drink turned into several due to the great atmosphere, chilled environment, fab selection of drinks and a very friendly owner. Being small but relaxed you can't help but mingle with others on a evening (haven't been in the daytime yet) which makes a refreshing change and is a good way to meet people. Great music and Brett the owner is so friendly and is eager to please all his customers. Look forward to returning

We happened upon this gem, after a stroll down Seaview Street. It serves great beer and although we didn't eat here, the food is great too (we were told by another couple). However it was blowing a gale, with flurries of snow and the door was wide open! I like a bit of fresh air and I can understand that if the door is closed the bar would not appear open but how about an 'A' board or some blankets. Despite this the atmosphere was warm so we will come back and remember the thermal challenges!!

An absolute gem, we went as a family for some lunch and didn't want to leave. Amazing food and the owner goes above and beyond with his service, would definitely visit again

People Bar is a little taste of the city in a very remote town. Cute, cosy and with a great selection of drinks and chauterie there really isn't anything not to like. Lovely atmosphere, excellent service great little place.A must visit.

This is the best bar in Cleethorpes. It's got to be the most friendly place around here; excellent, welcoming staff and a brilliant atmosphere. The food looks amazing which I'll have to try next time I'm in, and it has a wide variety of craft beers and ciders to choose from.It's a small place, but that just adds to the charm. 10 out of 10.

I've been here a few time for a cup of tea and for lunch. Great value food and fresh. Brett is very welcoming and knows his customers so well. He already knows how I like my tea after just a few visits. Always chatty and polite. Great music and environment. I just need to visit on an evening now.

Very friendly small quirky bar in Meggies. Great beer really good atmosphere and home made local food.

People"s Bar is small, sensational, and super. I could"t recommend it enough, Brett is a one of the most down to earth people you could wish to meet, if you have taste, a sense of humour (you will need one) then this is the place for you, expect something that isn't conformist . something that is unique, and well worth a visit then this is the place for you.

Fantastic little bar where you are always made to feel welcome, haven't eaten there yet but frequent it regularly for a nice glass of Batemans Prohibition.

I can't believe what I saw here with my own eyes... This place is fantastic. Such a refreshing change for the area. I would highly recommend this to anyone. It is friendly, warm and inviting! FIVE STARS!

A pearl of a place; People Bar has become a firm favourite of mine. I’ve visited the bar mid-week and at the weekend and on all occasions the food, drinks and 'feel' of the place have been just the ticket. Brett, the owner, is really creative with the food; I’ve tried some new dishes whilst in there, along with some classics, and really enjoyed them all. Brett and the staff have managed to strike a perfect balance: lovely food in a friendly, unpretentious atmosphere.

Love this little place, visited with friends to eat this time, great atmosphere and music. Had a sharing platter to start then the hot dish which was tacos. Loved it! Will return soon.

Fantastic service, the host Brett is the best. Always a chilled out place to have a decent beer from a brilliant local brewery (Batemans).

What a great addition to Cleethorpes. Whilst not a huge bar it is certainly full of character with a good selection of beers and the best G&T you will find. Shipyard is a winner for me. Brett's passion is clear and the service is spot on. We will definitely be going back.

Popped in for coffee. Great coffee, cute little place and friendly service. Will def return on our next visit to the area to try out the food.

Can't rate the food as the chef had cleared off home at 9pm when our table was booked for 9.30pm - I won't bother with this place again!!We arrived at 9.25 and the lady behind the bar showed me the diary where it was clear the time had been altered. My birthday 'unmeal'.

A Tiny bar full of charm and character, it can be a bit of a squeeze on a weekend night and on the two occasions we visited they had no JD but nevertheless it is my favourite bar in the area. Nice food staff and owner too, well worth checking out.

Having read the reviews me and my wife went there one lunch time for a cup of coffee, full of expectation. Much of what we read was true. Despite the concrete floor it's a cosy little,place, with lots of reclaimed timber and some ancient industrial metal chairs. There was a pleasant lively atmosphere, but we were left standing for what seemed quite a long time while the proprietor chatted to friends. We ordered a cappuccino, a 'normal' coffee and were tempted into ordering a couple of sausage rolls. My wife drinks cappuccino wherever we go and assured me hers was just a cup of normal coffee with a little frothy milk and a sprinkling of chocolate on top. She thinks there should have been much more milk. My coffee however was ok. The sausage rolls were tasty. We expected the bill to come to about £6.50 to £7.00 but were shocked when it came to £8.00. I suppose with hindsight they may have made a mistake.We were disappointed but we might give it another try to enjoy the unique atmosphere and hopefully, better value.

Completely love this place. It's a funky, little bar tucked on the corner of Cambridge Street. It reminds me of some of the bars I used to frequent in London. Music, atmosphere and staff are all brilliant. The G & Ts are definitely a firm favourite of mine.

Just been here with friends. Not our first visit but just as enjoyable!! We had the Taster Menu. Brett ( the owner) has travelled the country to source his products.Lovely experience the staff care about their customers plus the wine is excellent and atmosphere is totally focused towards the customer.Please visit

We thoroughly enjoyed a sharing platter this afternoon, clearly put together with care and attention. The cheeses and cured meats servings were both traditional and novel, and the service from Brett friendly and interested. We'll definitely be returning and we'll bring friends along as we need to share this superb food and service. The beer and wine selection was very different from anything you'll find at other establishments in the area. Though we might pay the price by not being able to squeeze in one day, it's brilliant to see an innovative business grow.

Great choice of beers , excellent food and brilliant atmosphere . Owner Brett is so friendly , what more do you need !! Keep up the great work

Really great bar with a good atmosphere. Also a great choice of beers, a bit different to many of the other bars in the area.

My husband and I thought we'd pop in for a relaxed bite to eat one midweek afternoon while we were back in Cleethorpes visiting. We fancied good food with chilled surroundings , and that's what we got at the People Bar! With the added expert food knowledge of owner Brett thrown in!! His enthusiasm and dedication to providing excellent food and drink , with a top little social spot is really great. Can't wait to visit again

popped for a drink and found this small but cosy, intend to return and try the food, as menu looked good.

Enjoyed our lunch very much, two of us shared a meat and fish platter and a lovely slice of cake. Very pleasant surroundings and service.

I've visited here on numerous occasions, whether it be for food, coffee, or alcohol. I've fully enjoyed my experience each time. I love the feel about the place, there's nothing quite like it in the area and I will continue to keep going as long as the standard stays the same. The food is amazing and the staff are some of friendliest around. Keep up the good work

Called here a couple of weeks ago with two friends. We were all impressed with the whole experience . Food, service and overall quality. A little gem with people who clearly care about other people.
