The Dunes in East Lindsey

Nice and cheerful and excepts dogs. Food is OK and reasonably priced. Great family environment. Great and pleasant staff. Can get crowded at busy times but still a great time. Nice and clean, close to the beach to walk the meal off :). Recommended :)

Had a full English breakfast before the bike racing. The breakfast was absolutely lovely and brilliant value for money.

Absolutely love our friends here at the Dunes.service is brilliant. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. They go out there way to help you enjoy your time at the Dunes. Cannot fault the entertainment. 100% best place in mablethorpe!!!

Had a fantastic carvery at this amazing venue, with four choices of meat and 16 choices of veg. A wide range of beers and spirits. And and a impressive dessert menu. You will not be disappointed cannot wait to go again A*****

Fantastic place, will definiltly come back again

Update 16/10/24 Had yet another fantastic carvery on Sunday, 4 choices of meat, 16 choices of veg. We both had an amazing time as usual. We will be back soon. ———————————————————— The Dunes Complex, a really great place to chill whatever the occasion. You are always made to feel welcome & special. There are so many choices of scrumptious food & a huge range of flavoured gins to choose from. Nothing is too much trouble. I often eat and drink here, its a fantastic place to socialise. Having great sea views too, what more could you ask for... Paddy, Debbie, and the staff keep doing what you do best.

Went for Sunday lunch with family. Excellent food and service. Great value for money. 4 choices of meats and huge selection of vegetables

The dunes is the place to be I’ve been coming here for a few years and last night we had a birthday party there and in August we held our wedding there and like always paddy and the team go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time. The food is always fantastic. You want a pub where it’s welcoming and make you feel like you have always been there then the dunes is the perfect spot.

Absolutely joke Saturday lunchtime one person on the bar my partner as been waiting at the bar now for 20 mins

Great place for a drink, often have games night. Highly recommended

Popped in on the off chance, big thumbs up 👍 👍 we were able to take out dogs in. Thankyou. We were going to have a carvery which looked absolutely lovely but seeing other people's plates thought maybe we didn't have enough room in our bellies 😀 Went instead for a big appetite all day breakfast and 3 toasted sandwiches which each came with salad and chips. I would like to say that it was great value and cooked to perfection. The staff were great and did all they could to help with our requests. Would definitely recommend.

Nice friendly service, didn't eat so can't score

Superb find, caters for all, ordinary menu, gluten free, vegetarian and vegan or a Sunday carver. You will not be disappointed.

The food was lovely and very well priced staff were very polite and very helpful I would recommend this place for breakfast 100% all the food we had there was lovely Keep up the good work to the staff you do a great job .Tuna cheese melt excellent

Love The Dunes. Perfect position on the seafront and a smashing place to visit for a drink and a meal at reasonable prices. Really nice owners and staff

Food lovely. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall a good experience, and what a view!

We were welcomed with a full vegan menu....and only told there's no vegan chicken, which cancelled out 3 options on the menu. Came back to check what they use for vegan fish when I was told....." Whatever they catch on the day, Haddock or Cod!" I asked again and confirmed I'm asking about vegan fish. Nope, the guy was still saying vegan fish is the same that swims in the sea but he will check with the chef. On return he told us there is in fact a very limited vegan menu as the other chef was off (Didn't realise you'd need a special chef to cook vegan food!) and that he could possibly get us a jacket potato with cheese but would have to check with the chef again. I didn't even bother asking if he meant vegan cheese.... Don't bother if you want any vegan food!!! 👎🏻

We didn't have food but I could see food being delivered to others and it looked good.

Friendly, busy today, singer on front, happy, smiley, friendly staff. Big thumbs up to all

We came on the 11th Aug to celebrate my 50th birthday and the management whent above and beyond as when we sat at our table they put a birthday banner on the table they also got me a balloon with 50 o and also a birthday card also the food was fantastic as always everytime we are down that area on holiday I always book our Sunday dinner there as can't fault it

Nice pub,good food,live music,Nice.

Incredible venue, wonderfully helpful and courteous staff, management are always on hand and approachable! Have to come a long way from home for this place and it is so worth it! Adore coming here! Cannot wait to come back! (If you’ll have me!) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just an average place. Clean tidy. Craft fair is nice Tuesday and Thursdays. Basic food had.

Great pub food great and very friendly add a good day there

Love this place, also great entertainment.

Visited recently after a day out playing in the arcades and shopping. Ordered from the normal main menu and the gluten free menu. Had chicken nuggets and chips. And stated one of us was gluten and lactose intolerant. Considering one order was gluten free both sampled the gluten free option and were pleasantly surprise how they tasted no different to the normal chicken nuggets (often gluten free is tatseless). Highly recommend as the menus for vegan options, gluten free and normal meals are extensive. Staff are very friendly and always happy to help to ensure your order is correct. Would happily visit again ☺️

Great food great value friendly staff nice size portions

Fantastic place on Mablethorpe Seaftont for food and drinks Highly Recommended

Fantastic place great food amazing atmosphere

Absolutely sensational all round friendly family welcoming atmosphere for both new and returning customers, service with a smile and reasonable prices too! can't fault at all 🤗

Great location went for a birthday party. The food was great but don't know if this was brought in or not. Only one person behind the bar and the card machine broke but not sign to tell you that so you are queuing when you can't use it!

Whenever in Mablethorpe we always go to the Dunes for Lunch. Paddy always sorts out my daughters whims with her food and the staff are always friendly often going above and beyond what I would expect. Always recognised and definitely made to feel welcome. As the Dunes motto says, "Enter as strangers, leave as friends!" I couldn't have put it better myself.

Come with family with two Little ones the staff was very friendly and helpful with everything we needed always had time to talk to you

This place is the best to go if u need breakfast, dinner and drinks. Perfect view of the beach and the staff are so polite and always have a smile whilst serving.

Considering how busy they were the service was brilliant and the food was good

It's bright, cheerful and well maintained. Brilliant prices and a gorgeous view of the beach. Lovely service and lovely food

2nd year here always a great environment Clean and welcoming and friendly Great value and great with the kids too Amazing venue

Friendliest spot in Mablethorpe. Great entertainment, reasonably priced food & service with a smile. Paddy & Debbie are stars ♥️

Absolutely love this place. Staff are so friendly. Especially Debbie who makes you feel really welcome. Plenty of seating, with sea views. Live entertainment and child friendly

Absolute brilliant atmosphere, everyone is welcome and the owners are very engaging and organise brilliant things.

Lucky Saint ALC free lager, cloudy but very nice. Landlord/barman VERY nice. Didn't eat there so!!!!

Had some lovely entertainment night and food and service brilliant owners Paddy and Debbie make everyone welcome

This place is amazing and the staff is amazing and friendly, We been coming here for many years and still love it We come to Mablethorpe every year

Great food Great service and a all round brilliant pub would recommend to anyone 👍

After moving to Mablethorpe I’ve been fortunate enough to have several visits to the Dunes on Mablethorpe beach. Each and every occasion has always left me impressed with the quality of food, the attentiveness of staff, the cleanliness of the facilities and the value for money on both food and drink. I can easily recommend to anyone who visits Mablethorpe to pop in and see for yourselves just what a gem the Dunes is. 5 Stars all the way! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Made a point of turning up for the carvery and was not disappointed as the meal was first class. Prices were reasonable and it had car parking outside. Unfortunately you had to pay which was £1.60 for a couple of hours. Felt really guilty as we left as we had no loose change to leave a tip as we had used our two quid to pay for the parking. Sorry girls I blame this cashless society.

Amazing food and great friendly service, highly recommend a visit.

Fantastic venue hosting a variety of events and activities. Always welcomed by a friendly team. A nice variety menu with all personal needs catered for. I recommend a visit when you are in mablethorpe.

Had the fish and chips basket special was probably the worst fish and chips I have ever had. Fish definitely tasted frozen, chips had a hair on. Wouldn't recommend

If you are looking for somewhere with a great friendly atmosphere, fantastic food and great Entertainment The Dunes Complex is the place to go. I love this place, the staff go out of there way to make you feel welcome, I have made many great friends here, had many lovely meals and also have created many great memories from different events and entertainment evenings.

Whether you want an a really tasty meal or Sunday dinner a beer or to enjoy the Entertainment in this great place to go & it's right by the sea ,you won't be disappointed. I'd pick The Dunes Complex every time .Great food . Fabulous staff & mine hosts are fantastic . Thankyou to all . We ll be back !! Go in as strangers & leave as friends 10 /10

Was looking for a place to watch the England game with the family whilst enjoying some food...always a tricky task...but this place delivered. We watched the game on a giant screen in the theatre whilst receiving great service in a lovely family atmosphere. Another thing that impressed me was the great range of beers at the bar as it's usually just Madri or Carlsberg/Carling most places. I was spoilt for choice and had a lovely Belgian beer Blue Moon followed by a Staropromen on tap and felt this rivalled weatherspoons for choice which is important for me having a few things to sample during a sesh. Overall a great experience coming from out of town and looking for a good family/drinking/friendly pub and venue!

Fantastic family pub love it!!!.Great for all ages, food is 💯.. Paddy and Debbie are brilliant along with the rest of the team 😃 I always recommend this place to friends and family.. Best family pub in Mablethorpe x

I truly can't rate this place highly enough. As a child I performed here many a time when it was known as The Dunes Theatre. I contacted them to ask if I could visit and share some of my childhood memories with my husband whilst we were on our honeymoon in Mablethorpe. To say Debbie went above and beyond is an understatement! Not only did we get a tour and was able to stand on the very stage I performed on many a time but we also was presented with 2 beautiful souvenirs from our visit. A stunning personalised shell and a stunning card featuring photos of the past n present. I'm not an emotional person but, Debbie, you got me right in the feelies. Yup choked up n happy tears. We had a wonderful afternoon.. beautiful food, entertainment on, sat by the sea n hving a pint or two in a brilliant, warm, welcoming, fun atmosphere. What more can you ask for? Thank you so much to you all at the Dunes. I will treasure this visit always.

Brilliant place have been visiting this place for 30 years feels like home

Staff always friendly and efficient

Thank you to The Dunes for making the B&M 1st anniversary celebration a success! The room was decorated especially for us and the buffet provided was fantastic and plentiful. We enjoyed joining in with the games night Bingo. A great time had by all. See you at the next one!

Lovely staff & owners fantastic very friendley

Superb serving staff. What a wonderful and welcoming family pub. Offers a lovely range of meals and snacks. There is a wide range of fantastic entertainment for all the family. Managers are very attentive and proactive to ensure that our experience was the best possible. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

I moved down here 2 years ago & this is the best pub to come to I've met a lot of friends by coming in here every Friday and Sunday night. The staff are amazing 👏 🤩

Carvery delicious with a wide range to pick from . Entertainment was brilliant staff very friendly. Really enjoyed my night

Fantastic venue. Had a few beers, asked staff if we could watch the Dutch game against Romania in the euros on the television to which they obliged. Drinks were the right price. Outdoor seating with a great view of the beach. Would come again.

We popped in on a sunny Saturday afternoon, a live singer gave the place a brilliant lively atmosphere. We had a couple of reasonably priced drinks and a snack, again reasonably priced and very filling! Highly recommended!

Fantastic place on the seafront Highly recommended

My association with the Dunes goes back to the 80s. I now visit to perform as a solo female vocalist and without fail I always recieve such a warm welcome from Debbie and Paddy. They are genuinely lovely people and they really look after their visiting artists and customers alike. A perfect sea front location and a guaranteed warm welcome - what more could anyone want?!

Fantastic place very friendly highly recommend come and try it out you will not be disappointed fabulous place staff very helpful

Love the Dunes. Especially Debbie the owner! So friendly and funny. She works so hard to keep the Dunes entertaining. Food is spot on. Atmosphere fantastic x

Lovely place paddy and Debbie are fantastic The food is delicious And the entertainment is fantastic too

Amazing place on the Seafront. Great staff Great food and drinks HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Came in to watch the euros tonight paddy , Debbie and staff were very welcoming, great atmosphere, great pints, great food

Brilliant service, lovely view on the sea front

FANTASTIC PUB ON THE SEAFRONT HIGHLY RECOMMMENDED

This is the place to go in Mablethorpe. I was on my holiday by myself, I walked into the Dunes very nervous and a lovely lady called Julie invited me to games night on that Sunday evening. I had so much fun, everyone made me feel so welcome. They treat you like they've known you years in there and they don't make you feel like an outsider like some places do. I laughed so much and I made a new friend that I added on Facebook. I moved from Peterborough to Scotland 5 years ago and if I lived closer I genuinely would be there every week. I loved it so much I even went back on Wednesday to play pool (amazing table and match balls) great cues too. I'm hoping to come back to Mablethorpe later on in the year and it will be the first place I go to. Thank you Paddy and everyone who made me feel welcome.

We visited mablethorpe on Saturday with the " safe in our hands" guardians group with 10 children and 7 adults. When it started raining, we looked for somewhere to eat and not only were The Dunes able to accommodate us all, they let us use a large private room with space for the littles to play, got all the 16 meal and drink orders right, served with a smile at the same time. They even put music on for the children to have a dance. Definitely went the extra mile. Thankyou

Fantastic Food Outstanding Location on the Seafront HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A family friendly place Lovely landlord and his wife who very kindly gave us a lift as we couldn’t get a taxi! The lady would not accept any payment and we were very grateful as my mum of 87 years old was too tired to walk back. Kindness itself Thank you xx

We are regulars to Mablethorpe and it wouldn’t be a holiday without stopping at The Dunes. We pop in at least once a day while we’re away for a drink (or two) and sometimes food! Friendly staff, really comfortable atmosphere, music and right on the beach! Best place by far and is a little home away from home! Well done The Dunes team x

Another great pub on the sea front abit more expensive on the beer but still great tasteing beer will come back soon

Fantastic place right on Mablethorpe Seafront Well worth a visit

Amazing time! Super friendly staff! Would highly recommend:)

Great place and very friendly staff good food too

Nice place to stop for a drink and a bite to eat over looking sea front, good value food. also dog friendly, they allow dogs at a limit number of tables inside, so you need to ask, plenty of outside seating

I was out on my usual bike ride with my son and we headed to the Dunes complex . Where we had help getting parked by the owner as it was very busy . She said are you after food , we said yes fish and chips She said try ours you won’t be disappointed. She wasn’t lying ! They were the best iv had in a long time , My son had scampi with his fish an chip that was amazing also everything was cooked fresh to order. Definitely going back Keep up the good work guys 👍

Had food and a cuppa very nice chatty owner

Always visit the dunes for Sunday dinner when we are down mablethorpe, great value for money and goons service, the carvery is freshened up regularly, never been disappointed.

Went for drinks and a family meal fantastic food and service, great atmosphere thank you all for a wonderful experience x

We attended the Dunes for the presentation night of The Mablethorpe motorcycle sandracing club. The food was excellent. The staff were very attentive.

A fantastic friendly place for drinks, great food, great entertainment and games nights are such fun we go every Friday and Sunday.

What can I say that hasn't already been said. The Dunes Complex is definitely the place to be for exquisite food, entertainment and genuine warm welcomes from the proprietor, his amazing wife and wonderful staff. Five stars all the time. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Another fantastic night at the Dunes complex bingo and games night. We always have a great laugh and have made some great friends. The food is always delicious and drinks very reasonably priced. The owner Paddy prince makes the games night unique and the staff are so friendly and welcoming too.

Absolutely shocking service very judgement and extremely poor staffing and I strongly wouldnt recommend management are poor to say the least they hide in the back away from issues

As a local I can say that the best place to go for entertainment and brilliant staff is The Dunes.

Good pub food with amazing and friendly staff. I go here regularly with my wife, and we always enjoy it. Our favourite is the entertainment. There is regularly a good entertainer or better still, why not check out the brilliant comedy nights. There are several throughout the year, with top notch comedians. It's a brilliant night, well organised, and best accompanied with a beer from the wide range at the bar. Just pop in and ask Paddy or Debbie when the next one is. You won't be disappointed!

Went with my family on Easter Monday fantastic food wonderful staff who couldn't do enough for you and so relaxing with the view of the sea highly recommended.

My partner and I visited on a Sunday afternoon and both had the carvery. It was absolutely beautiful, the meats we're all cooked perfectly and the selection of vegetables was great. We were both extremely satisfied with our meal and the friendly and helpful staff made it a very pleasurable visit. We'll certainly be back and would highly recommend it. Great value for money too.

Really nice little place to go to only went in the day time though I don't no what it's like at night-time staff and really friendly but to have a pint looking over the beach and out to sea I mean it dose not get any better then that. Recommend a visit. I definitely will be back if I'm in the area.

What a little gem. Excellent hosts. Paddy made us so welcome. Such a friendly atmosphere and excellent entertainment!

Great place for food and entertainment and Debbie is so lovely.

Went on Bingo night and it was really welcoming crowd and atmosphere, kind of like a family group and Sunday dinner was on that day and only £3 for chips, pie, peas and gravy. Lots of bingo and fun games at low prices. Beer was good too and great view of the sea and beach

Was mad to feel very welcome by the customer's and owner paddy, had a few games of bingo and card fane was a good laugh, see you all soon.
