The Brasserie at Humber Royal in North East Lincolnshire

Arrived after having booked a table earlier. No table ready and looked surprised we had turned up although we were listed on their bookings sheet. Had to wait a while until a table was made ready and a manager found and consulted. Took a while for our order to be taken and the food (Roast Sunday Lunch) was very nice. I attempted to contact one of the serving staff by raising my hand 3 times, there was no response. A person waiting to be served a drink at the bar decided to sit down as he had waited so long for someone to turn up at an empty bar and serve him drinks. I wanted a dessert but no one came to check on us throughout the meal to see if we wanted another drink or dessert. Eventually I gave up and decide not to have one. Interestingly enough a group leaving as we were eating complained to the Chef that the service was very poor but his food was lovely. Seems like a similar experience to ours.

“I didn’t know quite what to expect from having my Sunday lunch here to be honest, but it was actually really good. Don’t be put off by the cheap price, as this has no reflection on the quality. Would definitely come again, without a doubt.”

had a amazing meal with my family tonight service and food wss very good beef and roasties to die for .big compliments to the chef and staff.big portions lovely gravy too

We went here for a family birthday celebration and have to say we could not fault it. Staff were very attentive and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. Only a couple of small glitches with the meal but they were sorted immediately, without any issue. Food was beautiful and tasty. Good variety to choose from. Would we go here again...Most definitely.

Although we hadn't pre booked dinner in the restaurant, we decided to treat ourselves and brought our family members to the hotel. The food was amazing, quick service and tasty. All staff members treated us like royalty and I was pleased that we received such great hospitality especially as we brought our family here. Thank you to the team at the Humber Royal Hotel. We will definitely be back.

Lovely food, great choice. Superb local Haddock, very reasonably priced, good choice of beer and wine.

Four of us went last night at 7pm. Only a handful of people to serve and the service was so slow. Waited around 20 - 25 mins for our food and my fish and chips was only warm. The others asked for salad cream to go with their burgers and some salad and after another five minutes one of the young girls came over to inform us they don't have salad cream only mayonnaise which was no problem so asked for that instead please. Over half way through the meal those that wanted it asked another waitress for some so she fetched a tiny dish for three of them a few minutes later. The desert menu wasn't good either as there was hardly any choice but included christmas pudding if you wanted something warm. The waitress apologised that the sticky toffee pudding ( which the men enjoyed last last time ) and so forth wasn't been served anymore and not even such as cheesecake or what you normally expect. Last time we went we thought it could be better but as it was a meerkat 2 - for - 1 we decided to go again as it might have improved. Nope, it was worse. NO VEGAN food ( as far as I could see ) so forget it iff you are vegan as apparantly you should call first to ask them to cater for you.. Total price for a basic meal and drink would have been £74 for four of us, so we enjoyed the 2 - for - 1 .We pay for what we get but this was overpriced . Still left tip and and didn't moan whilst there as it isn't worth it. They need tips on service and the menu as well or at least they did last night. Maybe we went on the wrong night and menu a one off but not going again.

MMMMMMM - it never fails to impress. We had the Christmas Afternoon Tea for 2 and it was heaven. The choices of food was great, vert tasty, wholesome and delicious and breathtakingly gorgeous. Presentation was great, you could taste every flavour in the food, soup was fabulous and delicious. The Service was good, attention to deal was good, lovely atmosphere and certainly not expensive and good value. Will be back very soon!!!

The food was lovely and service very good. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, very friendly hard working people. Rumble band was excellent as ever real party atmosphere.

We had a lovely meal tonight. Nicely presented and delicious. My husband's steak was just perfect. My lasagne was lovely too. We will definitely be going again. Thanks to the staff for a nice evening.

My friend and I decided to visit the restaurant as we had a meerkat 2 for 1 deal Was looking forward to trying the food, we perused the menu online, but when seated we where given what looked like a specials menu with limited options. But thought give it a whirl, I decided to have battered haddock and salad, my friend opted for the icon burger, whilst waiting, we saw other food coming out and the fish and chips especially looked good. When our food arrived, my fish looked a tad anaemic and flat, nothing like the plate of food other diners received, my friends burger looked overdone, but we tucked in nevertheless, unfortunately my batter was thick and soggy, I took most of it off, and the fish looked grey and it didn't taste too good, I was reluctant at first to make a complaint, but when the waitress come over, I had to ask if the fish was fresh or had been frozen, she said it was fresh, she took the batter to the chef, and come back and apologised and offered to cook me another, as the chef had said it was undercooked, but I declined, as I had gone off it, I was given a complimentary drink, and have to say the desserts where lush, I did ask if the menu online is also offered at the table, and was told the online menu is a guide only, which is misleading, I'm more prone to thinking we where only offered the specials menu as we had the meerkat deal.....very disappointed...

Chose here as somewhere a bit nicer for a special occasion and asked on booking about child's meals to be told it was the same menu but slightly smaller portion and therefore slightly cheaper. Booked the table for 5pm, to be told when we arrived that they didn't start serving until 5.30pm, and despite one of our party arriving slightly late, we were 'pounced' on as soon as she arrived to give our order even though she hadn't even seen the menu! Confirmed re childs' portion on arrival, and requested a child's meal when ordering, so when the bill came, queried the full price meal the 8 year old in our party had... To then be told there is no child menu nor any changes to the menu it's just one. Queried again that I had been told twice that children got a smaller/cheaper version from the main menu, to be told I hadn't been told that! Disappointing end to an otherwise pleasant celebration. Won't be returning and wouldn't recommend to parties wanting to take children in their party.

It was a beige buffet of pastry, dry and uninspiring. The finger sandwiches were ok as was the scone with cream and jam but other items horrid. No cake or anything delicate or what we would consider and expect to find on an 'afternoon tea'. The strangest item was a deep fried in batter slice of halloumi, greasy and bland. Very odd for afternoon tea! We were 2-4-1 but still wouldn't buy it again

Stayed the night with evening meal and breakfast. The evening meal was excellent. The breakfast was not so good. Apparently the breakfast chef wasn't on duty and another chef had to do the breakfasts. There were problems with the order but were soon put right by our waitress julie and manager Catalina. Everything has been good in the past, so will not be put off going back.

Superb 3 course lunch with excellent service. £19.95 per person and can use meerkat meals. Fantastic value. Would definitely recommend

Maria, I think her name was. She was a wonderful waitress. She was attentive to us whilst teaching a new waiter whom was also lovely.

Very pleasant dining room with attentive staff. Unfortunately, we were the only diners, so there was not much atmosphere, but that isn’t the hotel’s fault! Food was prepared quickly and was fabulous. Staff were very pleasant and attentive. Recommended.

We visited here on a Sunday at about 4pm so it was fairly quiet, there were six of us and I had said that I wanted to use the Meercat 2 for 1 which was no problem. We all opted for the 3 courses for £19.95 which was £3 more than the prices quoted on the website, also the menu had slightly more choice online. I did point this out to the waitress and suggested it be brought up to date. The food was nice, sirloin of beef with the usual accompaniments. I would have preferred a bowl of proper veg though than the farty parcel it came with, although a bowl of cabbage and bacon was served too, so at least there was something to bulk it out. Now, the drinks, a few in the party asked for a pint of coke, this came in a pint glass but was about 2/3 full, then later others were ordered, same. It turns out that they were 2 bottles and whilst this wasn't a problem per se, the £1.90 per bottle, so £3.80 per "pint" was. So be warned. It was naughty of the waitress not to point this out when we ordered. The other drinks weren't cheap either. So would we go again? Yes we would but I would have a jug of water with my meal. With the 2 for 1 deal it is good value, if you are paying full price then I would say it's all of its money.

Sunday dinner was absolutely fantastic. Great food and great staff. Rebecca looked after our needs and gave us great service with a smile. Will be back in the near future to try the full menu 👍

This was a chance to use our new Meerkat two for 1 meals deal. We chose this place as I have not used this restaurant for 16 years . The lovely Amy Perry and her staff were very attentive and the orders were spot on especially for my partner who is gluten intolerant. The pork shoulder was a tad over cooked but nonetheless very nice . Kate’s fish was cooked to perfection and the service was very good .

I really enjoyed my stay here the food was excellent and the staff were obliging and helpfull. It was also easy to find and with great car parking facilities Many thanks

Stayed at The Humber Royal Hotel from 26th September to 11th October and had a fab time. The staff were professional and polite. Special thanks to Julie for keeping me updated on the plain yoghurt situation and to Rebecca for supplying 'The Boss' with cookies.

Excellent service, excellent food and very pleasant staff. If you stay the rooms are fully refurbished and guarantee a good nights sleep

We’ve been coming here for several years and eating in the Brasserie, but always have the haddock and chips. We came with friends and they ordered it on our recommendation. We had wine a nice Sauvignon and the waitress was lovely. She has served us many times before and is really nice. The haddock was massive and excellent.

Had a glorious meal here last Saturday night.A wide and varied choice was on offer but we had spotted the smoked haddock with chive mash and were delighted with our meal. Apple panacotta with vanilla ice cream finished the meal in style.

I was staying in the hotel for the night (separate review) and decided to eat in the restaurant. Upon going to the bar before being seated I was rather disappointed with the lack of choice for draft beers. Couple of basic lagers, couple of ciders, Tetleys and San Miguel. I asked if they had any bottled beers - no. So I said I'd have a pint of Guinness, pointing to the Guinness pump. At which point the bar staff got a can of Guinness out of the fridge! When I stopped her from opening this and said I wanted draft I was told, rather rudely I thought, that the pump was staging only and can or nothing. Running out of choices, I had a pint of San Miguel as it was a sunny warm day.

We were there on a Sunday the menu is fixed price and not the regular bistro menu. The choices were good though particularly as there was haddock and chips. We ordered the haddock, there was complimentary bread and dip, the fish was huge and delicious, there was a mountain of chips too much to eat, shame. The puddings were great my ice cream was also delicious.

On my previous visit for lunch I had had the beef hash which was very, very nice with lots of really tender meat.

I was in a party of 15 people and the majority of the mains had been pre ordered but when they were served the mains came out and you had to wait for the veg to go with them. I had the toad in the hole and the base was quite stodgy and soggy. Everyone else’s comments were that it was okay but nothing to write home about, I would eat there again just to see if it improved if there were less people.

Usually with food presented this well of lacks in flavour, not for here.. Food,presentation and service all excellent.

I am not usually one for writing reviews but after a dreadful experience at The Humber Royal Brasserie for Christmas Day lunch, I felt it was only right to post a review to Pre warn others who may be looking to book next year. Do not do it!!

Family of 4 went for Sunday lunch 26th November. table booked for 1-o-clock. Friendly and attentive Staff without being over the top. Genuine Smiles not because they have to

I had a wonderful dinner this evening, ordering the tuna which was cooked perfectly, my husband and I enjoyed every part of our meal and the atmosphere accompanied it wonderfully. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do more to help, especially Katie who was very attentive and couldn’t stop smiling, she really added to mine and my husbands night, engaging in conversation whilst no request seemed too much. I Will definitely be recommending to friends and family and will be back soon.

Had afternoon tea here with my best friend there was a good selection staff friendly and helpful ,the waitress was very polite and very efficient we pre booked a table but there was no need as place wasn't very busy

I was meeting with friends and I had planned surprises for two of them. On arrival I was told the flowers I'd ordered were being kept cool. Mandy asked if I had booked but I explained not all could make it so I had brought cake and table sprinkles. I happened to mention I wish I had brought a balloon and moments later Mandy arrived at our coffee area with not only a beautiful weighted balloon but a Happy Birthday banner! She and a collegue proceeded to set up glasses and put a bottle of Prosecco to chill.

Lovely staff who produce a smashing meal for the two of us, in a relaxed atmosphere

Everything is excellent food particularly fish and chips. The service is outstanding the staff are really nice and friendly it...

Romantic evening (or as close as our ages allow), looking into each other's eyes as we overlook the golf course.

Not much "ambience" and tables are situated near the bar - it's more like an upmarket McDonalds than a restaurant and the table surfaces in McDonald's are cleaner - you could almost get stuck to the sticky tables, - eat elsewhere.

Attentive staff, a good wine list and a wide-choice menu (even for veggies). Locally sourced produce.

Great buffet selection prior to a good locally sourced cooked breakfast served efficiently by friendly staff

Don't be put off by outside appearances, had an amazing meal with great service. Very impressed, beautifully cooked haddock and lamb. Thank you for a great experience

Came to afternoon tea for 9 for a colleagues baby shower. The ambience was relaxed and cool on a very hot day. The food was lovely and the service was absolutely excellent. Excellent value for money too. Would definitely return.

Had a lovely afternoon with my friend and our kids, the food was lovely the service was great we all loved it will definitely be returning again, would highly recommend to anyone, it's a relaxing atmosphere always made to feel welcome. Thanks again Ben and team :-)

I stayed one night at the hotel and wasn't very enthusiastic eating at the hotel restaurant, but what a surprise! Really delicious food and the meat was incredible! Extremely satisfied :) Thanks!

This is our second visit here, we'd been here exactly 12 months before, sat at the same table again. The waitress was also the same and also excellent her name was Mandy. We were staying here and on a half board deal, the menu was available on the package and we were entitled to 3 courses.We started with melon, which came with flaked cheese it was light and refreshing. We then had fish and chips, it was delicious fresh flaky fish in a crisp batter, the chips were fresh potato and chunky, with mushy peas. For desert we had ice cream which was lovely with honeycomb sprinkled on top. We had wine by the glass rather than a bottle there was a reasonable wine list.We will definitely be back again.

food and service was great... price not too bad portion size ample. quite small but wasn't busy when we went so not a problem.

We ate in The Brasserie whilst staying at the hotel. The evening meal was superb and modern, and (although notified in advance) when an error was made about my wife's allergy, staff rectified it immediately and without fuss. The food was cooked perfectly, was plentiful and very tasty. The staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable (the head waiter was particularly good at promoting the local area). We also had breakfast in the Brasserie which was equally impressive - again, plentiful, fresh and plenty of choice. Overall, excellent food which added the icing on the cake to our visit to this hotel - highly recommended.

Popped in for lunch-Great service, great food and of course great prices-Would always recommend this place .Thank you for looking after us.

Here you have a beautiful and very professional lounge for you to have afternoon tea or lunch in. When you are inside and looking at the views of a gorgeous golf course, you would not think you are in Grimsby at all. It is very quiet but is also perfect for a honeymoon or a function business like or leisure.

Staff were all really helpful and very pleasent. They suggested some meal choices wich we were both really happy with. Prices not too bad either

We had a business meeting at the Humber Royal Hotel which involved eating in the restaurant. Amazing Food, Great Wine and Fantastic Service. Well Done to Ben and his Team in the restaurant. We will definatley be back :-)

We visited the wedding fair being held in the hotel yesterday and the smell of food coming from the kitchen was so good that we decided to eat there too. We had the 2 course lunch, main and desert and thoroughly enjoyed it, the food was delicious!It was quite busy with other families but we weren't kept waiting long. The staff were attentive without being overbearing and were very friendly and accommodating with our children. Thanks everyone x

The quality of the food is very good, the staff are very pleasant and helpful, service is always good. Having just worked a full day the last thing you need is a poor restaurant for your evening meal, I do believe you will have that worry here.

Having just undergone a long 4 hour car journey to this hotel we planed to have a meal and early night BUT the guy in the suit who runs the restaurant after taking about 5 minutes wait while he folding napkins advised in a curt manner they had a party coming in so book next time. This was even before they had arrived and there was plenty of table free!!... NOT a good start to our stay. So not to be disappointed for our 2nd night we booked a table with reception. The meals we had were good but there is not much selection and some meals don't come with chips or potatoes which they charge extra!! The guy in the suits attitude was still abrupt which was a shame as the rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful

We went here yesterday as a treat from my Mother -in Law, eight family members from 6 to 68 thoroughly enjoyed the three course lunch. With a wide variety to choose from there was something for everyone's palate.Food was well presented with sufficient time between courses to drink and talk, the service was very professional and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, although quiet when we visited the service had a very personal feel to it.At £17.95 per head it is not the cheapest in town but with a 40% food discount voucher available til the end of January it is certainly worth a visit.

Went with 37 friends to a Motown xmas party night. Not sure what to say. The food was absolutely dreadful. The soup was like wallpaper paste, no seasoning or flavour. The main - I had salmon, it was ok but was served with a strange, bright yellow sauce, again no flavour , some potatoes and frozen veg. In our platter we had one piece of broccoli to share!!! There was no salt and pepper on the table so couldnt even add our own seasoning.The desserts, I had chosen lemon panacotta but the waiter was wandering round saying he had too many chocolate tortes so I accepted one of those instead. It just tasted of cocoa powder and was far too rich. I tasted my friends panacotta - it was rank!! No lemon had been anywhere near it, it was a really small portion and the consistency was curdled. Most people held their plates up and sent it back. Some were offered an alternative but not everyone got one. One replacement was xmas pudding but it was served with what looked like warm milk, ( supposedly custard! The chef should be ashamed of serving food like this. No mince pies, teas or coffees were served afterwards to the tables. I found out later you had to go into a different room to get a tea/ coffee. That is not good service. Meal took forever nearly two hrs to be served and cleared away. This night was done on the cheap with mass catering at a cost of £37 . I really would like a partial refund it was so bad. The entertainment was ok , just one man singing on his own. The stage was not decorated just a plain white space.Drinks were very expensive too but they often are at venues like this. Wont be going there again !

This was a return trip 12 months from my previous trip. The great thing is the quality of food, friendliness of the staff and atmosphere are still of a high quality. We also stayed the night at the hotel - once again very good value and service.

The food was mixed. The starters ( trio of salmon/ duck parfait and prawn and apple salad) were simply stunning.The sample of soup was an unexpected surprise and was delicious. This is when things failed somewhat; two dishes arrived and these were presented well and smelled heavenly. The third meal, the one which took less time to cook arrived almost five minutes later. The gammon on the yellow belly wasn't cooked properly and the cut for the rump was full of gristle, hidden well with greens. Portion control on the chips was poor, they could have been fewer and presented with the meal, rather than in a separate dish. The gammon steak was cooked well and the egg topper had a lovely runny yolk.The wine we shared was perfect, it was smooth with a very pleasant taste. Chef needs to work closely with the team to ensure the meals are delivered together. Otherwise the meal was ok.

Arrived very later for dinner, when they were almost closing the restaurant, but could not have received better service and more positivity from the waiting staff, led by new manager Jenna. Her enthusiasm is contagious and she is a great ambassador for the hotel, restaurant and the town of Grimsby, not to mention Meatloaf (the band not the food)!! A very pleasant experience on my first visit to the town and no doubt I will make it a regular occurrence in the future

Took my dear friend and daughter for afternoon tea although they had a wedding on and we had to wait a while as they were extremely busy the afternoon tea was lovely ,could not fault the staff gave us complimentary drinks as they were running almost an hour late ,plenty of food and very nice it was

Excellent stay would return again rooms very clean restaurant very enjoyable Good location for Grimsby town with Cleethorpes

Great value set menu and also from the main menu.Lovely food and great service.We stayed in October 2016 and 6 of us ate, not a bad word to say about the food or service

This venue is of great splendour, especially if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of town or city life. when you are sitting down with a luxurious hot drink and a bite to eat, you are looking over a spectacular golf course which is delightful because you get lost in your surroundings and don't realise that you are in Grimsby. The staff are professional, friendly and very welcoming and are always there to assist. The food is very nice and is at a high standard. The room has a largely modern, contemporary feel to it. I would recommend it more for those without young children although if you are staying at the hotel side of it, they do acknowledge children and can cater as required, although you tend to find it is more for couples, business persons and older generation. It is also an ideal place to eat if you are looking for a wedding reception.

This restaurant is made by one person alone Jenna Payne absolutely fabulous customer service. Food is good especially the chips but Jenna really clicks with all the customers and makes the place turnover smoothly. She can't do enough for the customers and keeps everybody smiling.

Gorgeous food and got the diamond card which gets 50% off your bill up to 6people so it's a bargain. Love it there. The staff are fantastic in. Both sides especially Mandy and Selina who always make extra effort with my son. Getting him colouring stuff and letting him eat things on the main menu but simplifying them for him. Just don't look at the outside because it's a different world inside x

My friend and I had lunch here last Sunday and enjoyed the food very much. We both had three courses which were served and presented very well. The roast beef with all the trimmings was delicious. Good value and generous portion sizes. Our waitress Jenna was friendly and helpful. A pianist playing in the background added to the relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be returning there and would recommend this restaurant.

Poor service, no bread or water offered, long wait, salad not as advertised and staff not clear of payment and receipt methods.

Since my review in 2013, I have revisited the hotel but not the restaurant, for no reason other than it did not fit in with plans. Jenna, the new maître d', is a breath of fresh air, professional & friendly. All the serving staff were the right level of attentive: there when they were needed.The cuisine is still of a high standard. I was entertaining three friends. Two of us had scallops on a cauliflower purée - absolutely heavenly. The other two had starter-sized toad-in-the-hole. Demolished.My main was Gressingham duck pan-fried to perfection with a succulent pink flesh. Another took the cheese course for her main - this time the cheeses had reached room temperature. Spaghetti Bolognese for another was not all sloppy, but done Italian style with plenty of meat. And finally a chicken curry filled a chap who is not keen on overly spicy food: he was really happy with his dish and polished off the lot.I was the only one of the group that opted for a dessert: three sorbets including a champagne ice and one with passionfruit. Totally refreshing.Now I am really looking forward to my next visit to see friends in Grimbsby!

On our entry to restaurant greeted with smile an taken to our table .noticed how clean an shiny the cutlery was.very crisp napkins ..given little crispy salmon starter...very enjoyable ..ordered our fish suppers..nothing but excellent service from Jenny Payne..even got a birthday candle for sisters birthday..will go back again.

Went to the brasserie with my sisters and had a lovely evening. The food and service was excellent, especially Jenna Payne , nothing was too much trouble.

We dined at 4.30pm Sunday with two of our friends making four in our party, on booking some weeks ago I requested a round table , we were met on arrival by Gemma who showed us the table which was as requested then shown to the lounge area were we were invited to order drinks and to browse through the Sunday lunch menu, drinks arrived a few minutes later our order was take,.a short time after we were invited to the table by Gemma we had starters and main the food was excellent service first class overall excellent experience such a warm friendly staff not our first visit wont be the last by any means.

My husband and I ate at The Brasserie on a Sunday evening on the recommendation of a friend, so glad we did. I usually just drive by this hotel as it looks rather dated, it isn't on the inside believe me. Very up to date and relaxing with the furnishings and decor. The staff were really pleasant and made us very welcome. We decided to have our drinks (a bottle of pink fizz :-)) at our table while we choose our meals. The menu changes at the weekend from the week so plenty to pick whatever day you go to check it out. I had the supreme chicken, yorkshire pud, fab roasties and veg, delicious. My hubby had a salmon and crushed potatoes dish which he enjoyed, you also get good portions too. We decided to have a desert as you had a choice of 2 or 3 courses for a set price too. I had the sticky toffee pudding with the raspberry custard (real raspberries) Gorgeous. Hubby had the flapjacks and berries with orange curd ( home made) altogether great experience and will definitely be going back soon.

I Have eaten here for the past 6 months while staying at the hotel, the staff (molly, mandy, jenna, Danielle) are always welcoming make you feel very much at home, helpful and accommodating as a vegetarian/vegan they are more than happy to ask the chef if there is something that can be made up, options on the menu are growing. All food that has been made is very fresh and enjoyable. Thank you for being so amazing every single day

My wife was overcoming a cold and they were more then helpful and offered honey lemon drink which was served without hesitation

Been at hotel and eaten here on and off for the past 5 months, and can't find any fault. Service is excellent from the team, Mandy, Jenna and Molly are are always welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Food is always fresh and reasonably priced. With the addition of a Daily special set brasserie menu, there was always something new to try. Been so good have driven my family over from Nottingham just to have a special meal. Thanks very much guys!!

very good food ....spend a while looking for paces to eat in Grimsby while I was staying in the royal Humber and decided to stay in the hotel and wasn't disappointed, food is of a high standard ....

After hearing some great things about this restaurant I decided to treat my kids to Sunday lunch in the Brasserie and I'm so glad I did. From walking into the hotel every member of staff we saw was friendly and welcoming. The restaurant has a light airy feel to it overlooking a lush green golf course and I felt the kids were welcome rather than just tolerated like at other restaurants we have been to.Its always hard to find somewhere that caters for all of us, I'm a vegetarian and the kids can be incredibly fussy with what they eat but nothing was too much bother for the staff. We were well looked after by all the team.For starters we ordered tomato soup, melon kiwi and strawberry salad, garlic bread, prawn and apple salad and broccoli and spinach soup. They were very quick to deliver and the food was hot and freshly prepared. The soups were absolutely delicious, rich and full of flavour. My son said the tomato soup was the best he has ever had - high praise indeed from an 11 year old tomato soup fan! The melon kiwi and strawberry salad was yummy the fruit was really juicy and fresh. Overall we were really impressed with the starters and the decent portion sizes.Main courses were equally impressive, between us we had ordered chicken dinner, 2 beef dinners, haddock and prawn roulade and vegetarian option sunday lunch. I wasn't keen on the aubergine dish that was on the menu but i was offered veggie sausages as an alternative to the meat on a lunch and that was brought out with my own jug of veggie gravy. The kids loved having the veg and potatoes in serving bowls so they could help themselves to whatever they liked, resulting in clean plates all round. I really didn't think we would be able to handle a pudding after all that delicious food but my kids can't turn down ice cream! several flavours to choose from meant it was a big decision but 3 of them had ice cream and again clean bowls all round, One went for sticky toffee pudding which almost disappeared in seconds it was so nice, i had the apple and raspberry crumble with custard, it was divine! The staff were great, checking everything was ok and bringing drinks or ketchup as required, we didn't feel rushed at all and the atmosphere in the Brasserie was very relaxed. There was a man playing the piano and he was really good, he played such a wide range of tunes from Pachelbel to Ed Sheeran via Lion King non stop for 2 hours, we really enjoyed it and the afternoon flew by. The kids have already asked when we can go again!!Thanks to the Manager, Waitresses, Chef, kitchen staff and the pianist for a great Sunday afternoon!

Han Sunday Lunch yesterday! The staff are excellent, Plentiful portions and first class quality !Would recommend !

I stay at the Humber Royal hotel on a regular basis and the new Brasserie menu offers excellent food at a set price of £24.95 for a 3 course meal, plus either a pint or glass of wine. This offers great value for money and great service.

I had the good fortune to eat in the brasserie this week and found the food to be of the highest standard. I have eaten in a great many places during my travels across the uk, I cant remember having had such flavoursome

Had eaten here a couple of years ago but at lunch time. Never experienced an evening meal so thought we'd give it a go to round my birthday weekend off. Was directed to the bar/lounge area until a table was ready for us, and no sooner had our drinks been made, the waitress was waiting to seat us. The menu selection I found to be a little sparse... there was a good handful of things on there, but the majority of meals, the prices tended to be £20+, and not wanting to spend that much on a meal each, we opted for one of the cheaper dishes (there were probably only 4-6 to choose from). We both went for the supreme of chicken, which stated it was with chorizo and garlic oil.. the description made it sound really tasty, however when it arrived, the chorizo was extremely small and mixed in with the rice, so it was barely noticeable. The rice was tasty, being drizzled with garlic oil, but with the breast/leg of chicken on top, I wouldn't say it was worth £15. You had to pay extra if you wanted vegetables too. Also, the tables are far too close to one another, especially the 2 seaters. About 15 minutes into us being sat down, another man came and sat himself down right beside us and basically ruined the whole dining experience as he was by himself, and had nothing else better to do than listen into our conversation. This is not the restaurants fault but what really aggravated me was there were a few other 2 seater tables that were slightly more isolated that he could have sat at, but nope! Either way, it made me feel uncomfortable and like I couldn't talk with my partner because I know he could hear every word. Sometimes restaurants would rather cram a few more tables into a space to get more money than make customers experiences enjoyable. I'm sure I'm not the only person who would feel like this, and because of this along with the food/price, I probably won't return.

We were on a dinner bed and breakfast package, this meant a 3 course meal, with one or two items with a small supplement. We ordered a bottle of white wine which was a recommendation and it was very good. For starters I had a blue cheese pannacotta it was light but delicious, my friend had chicken and asparagus roulade also really good. For main course we both ordered haddock and chips, the waitress said it was the size of a whale. Well it was a huge portion, but the batter was fantastic fish fresh, the chips were described on the menu as "chip shop chips" I want to know the chip shop that produces chips like them as they were the best I've ever had! We had to wait for desert which again was delicious, my brownie and ice cream beat me! My friend however enjoyed all her delicious pannacotta and little fish shaped shortbread biscuits. The most outstanding part of our experience though had to be the service, Mandy and Selina, they were courteous, helpful and so nice, joking with us and the other customers. I know this place is open to non residents, so if in the area try it, you won't be disappointed.

When I booked the afternoon tea, I had forgotten the friend I was taking was on a gluten free diet, so I phoned the hotel ahead of our booking, and they couldn't have been more helpful. On arrival they were expecting us, and immediately advised they had a GF version for my friend and we both enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea,The staff were courteous and friendly, and the service was excellent.Highly recommend, excellent value for money.

Horrendous our honeymoon night.. Nearly got in fight with next room making so much noise my husband had to get night porter...yes we got another night but service was diabolical.Never again

Dined here by way of default as we were staying at the Humber Royal (see my review on that) so we had plenty of time prior to dining to assess the menu and consider our options. The menu dishes were varied and covered a range of prices so it was hard not to be catered for. I'm not a veggie so I am unable to give advice as to whether they are adequately catered for. The service, food and ambience was faultless and if the locals want to try somewhere 'far from the madding crowd' then I would recommend they try this place.

We were directed through to the restaurant where we were told we'd be greeted, we were not. We used this time constructively to pick our drinks, sadly this took all of 10 seconds due to lack of choice. Once the drinks were ordered we sat in the lounge and were eventually given nearly enough menus for our party of three. The 2 most appealing options on the menu were not available. The waitress was then annoyed when we didn't order quickly. We paid our round of drinks and promptly left without dining.

Upon arrival to the Humber Royal Hotel, we were greeted by a friendly receptionist who directed us through to 'The Brasserie' where apparently we would be seen to. This was not the case as we were stood by the bar for at least 10 minutes until a member of staff came to greet us, the time we were waiting gave us time to assess the bar which we felt lacked in choice compared to other more basic restaurants in the area. We took a seat in the lounge and awaited the arrival of the final member of our party and given menus to look at, but there didn't appear to be a lot of choice; we were informed that certain dishes weren't available which made a decision of what to order even harder. A waitress came over and asked if we were ready to order but she seemed very frustrated and annoyed when we said we weren't ready. After discussion with my party we felt that we should leave The Brasserie and find somewhere else to eat. I have never walked out of a restaurant but as a party we felt this was not a place where we'd like to dine.

The restaurant is an attractive feature within the Hotel. The exterior of the hotel looks a bit foreboding, being an unattractive 'block', but visitors should persevere.The bright and comfortable bar/restaurant facility is agreeable, with friendly and attentive staff.The menu is more than sufficient and daily specials add value to the selections.Nice tableware and linen napkins add appeal to what is a modern setting, which is enhanced with attractive views over Grimsby golf course.

Stayed the night and had an inclusive breakfast here. There was a very good selection of fruit, cereals, yogurts and breads. The cooked selection was also extensive with some nice treats if you so desired.

Had an excellent meal on 21st of February 2016Even though the restaurant was very busy, staff were very friendly and attentive without being in your face. What more can you ask for. Will definitely be back.

Book in advance, December being party time for the festive season, can get booked up quickly. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff.

Had Black pudding & celeriac potato cake, Thick cut honey & Cajun roast bacon loin and passion fruit panna cotta all very tasty. The hotel doesn't look much from the outside but is very reasonably priced, The food and the service were very good. 82%

this was a nice experience for myself and my fiancé. However the breakfast wasn't what we were expecting. We wanted more of a variety.

The Humber Royal organised my Son & now Daughter in Laws wedding with the help of Sarah the wedding organiser at the end of May. Simon and his team made their day very very special. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue for a special wedding, nothing was too much trouble. What a wonderful day. At lot of us stayed the night and the bedrooms were very clean and comfortable with an excellent full English breakfast in a dedicated room just for their wedding guests. We have often eaten in the restaurant at Humber Royal over the last couple of years and enjoyed every meal we have had. Thanks to Anne the General Manager and her team for maintaining such a good hotel. Thanks again to you all.

Enjoyable meal with pleasant, friendly and professional service. Food good quality, especially the fish. Served with a smile!

I had breakfast four days (more than I could eat) and lunch on another day. The portions were very generous and service prompt and helpful..

We booked a conference room for s weeklong course. The room was well set up and properly facilitated with the equipment needed for the course. The catering came from the Brasserie, and was excellent thru out the 5 days. This is our business centre in the Grimsby area

Beautifully cooked and presented food. Comfortable surroundings with the tables not too close together.

Had a meal here with my grandparents and there was hardly anything to fault. The food was excellent (I had steak with was cooked to perfection!) The staff were wonderful and polite, I also had a pudding from the specials menu (ginger sponge) it was much smaller than i expected and seemed to expensive for what it was- however it tasted beautiful. The atmosphere was wonderful as was the music in the background. well done Humber Royal!
