My family and I came to have a Sunday roast and had an amazing time. The young girl waitressing made sure we had a great experience, she made sure my child's food was took care of as he had an allergy and everything was superb, we had no problems and everything was amazing! The food was delicious, everyone ate everything, they catered to my child's allergy and the gravy was the best. The drinks were really good, however the prices were quite expensive but the cost of everything is rising these days so it wasn't that bad. Overall, my family and I had an amazing time and I have told my friends about this place, so will definitely be coming back!

Lovely snug pub on Cleethorpes Sea Front with lovely staff and punters. Even has pool tables and one of those mobile-controlled Jukeboxes. Shame it's so expensive! Over a fiver for a pint of Madri! Go one bar down to Willy's and you can get a pint of Becks for just over £4 or one of their local brews, or go up to the Fisherman's on Sea View Street and get a pint of local Docks Beers for the same price. Explains why the place is so empty during the week. I get the pub trade is struggling but as a Marston's pub you'd expect it to be a bit cheaper - it's Cleethorpes, not Brighton!

Public House, not a lot of charisma but friendly welcome and prompt service. We chose a house burger (brie & cranberry) and haddock & home made chunky chips. Both came piping hot and perfectly cooked (take note Marston & Mitchells!). Good sized portions, priced competitively. Cleethorpes has a lot of pub / restaurants, some better than others. We would come back to this one for the food, but not the character.

Went in last Sunday for a Sunday dinner but when I got there decided to go for steak pie instead. Absolutely superb deep filled homemade pie with thick cut home made chips, couldn’t recommend more. Stayed for a few drinks afterwards with fantastic service from Hayley behind the bar who always has a big smile for everyone. Great bunch of regulars as well, definitely recommend 👍

A fantastic traditional & family friendly pub. Whether you’re just popping in for a drink or a meal the friendly & helpful staff are there for you. Sit at the bar & have a chat or take a table, play a game of darts or enjoy a game of pool. There’s a small beer garden at the rear that’s a proper sun trap in the summer. What’s not to like ? I highly recommend the Smugglers.

Really disappointed in this place after reading the good reviews. My little girl spent all day been excited getting ready for the Halloween party. This place is clearly for locals only, not sure what we did wrong but we was absolutely not welcomed in the slightest, especially by the women dressed as a bride who made it very clear we wasn’t welcome and purposely stared us out! Had one very very upset 4 year old as we ended up leaving after 15 minutes of dirty looks of everyone. we wasn’t the only non locals who made this comment either! Won’t be going back. Whoever you are you should be really ashamed of yourself!!

Always a pleasure coming to Smugglers. Full of friendly faces. Recently attended the Halloween party and brought 3 children aged 5-7, they’ve never been to a halloween party here before as we usually do the Linden Club. They absolutely loved it and asked if we can come every year! Staff went above and beyond to make it a special night for the kids, lots of games and prizes, they didn’t want to leave! Thanks to Kim and India for making sure all the children were included and for making it so fun for them all.

I rang this pub to ask if they were televising the game as we were staying at Thorpe park and they refused to air it. I went with 5 boys aged 8-12 and two mums. The landlady immediately said she would sort it out for us with only 20 mins before kick off and we arrived to the most hospitable welcome. Not only did she sort an area out for our group she also set the two pool tables up for two free games for the kids to play. On top of this she brought us free bowls of chips which were home made a yummy for us all free of charge as well as sweets for the boys. The customers who were also in were watching another game and really embraced the boys delight when there team scored and also very welcoming. The pub was lovely place, no swearing just really really pleasant place to take the kids. It's a must for cleethorpes with a 5 star food rating and very reasonable prices. I never write reviews but sometimes you have to . Don't pass this pub by which is located near the life boats... especially with kids!

The staff are however, very strict with Drinks not on coasters a member of staff was frantically running around and moving customers drinks on to coasters, would be better if he asked rather than just grabbing the drink and placing on the coaster.

Great lively place great music BUT oh dear me the bar staff need re training. The are two bars and lots of people waiting to be served you cannot just serve the person stood in front of you or just walk away into the other bar. Any bar staff worth their salt know who is next or who has been stood the longest. Surely the manager allocated certain staff for each bar. Although it was New Years Eve it wasn’t particularly busy.
