Terrible management, even worse fish, haddock and cod all sold as haddock. False advertising. This photo is my reaction to their atrocious customer and staff service. Just get rid of the chip shop and stick a Ferris wheel or a Wendy's there for gods sake.

We found the whole experience visiting papas first rate. The food was very good but above everything the staff were fantastic. All of them, without exception, were so friendly and helpful that they could not do enough for you. Would highly recommend. Well done, papas, we'll definitely be back and will be taking my vegan daughter as the nenue will caters for her!

What a welcome! We were a large group who hadn't booked but that was no issue. Service was quick and every member of staff was so friendly. The battered halloumi was a revelation, but everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Josephine checked in with us regularly, nobody rushed us away even though it was a busy day, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a lovely dining experience.

We have been to various Papas restaurants and visited the Cleethorpes one again today. There was an issue when our order arrived but Courtney immediately addressed the issue and resolved it to our satisfaction. The fish and chips were as good as ever but it was Courtney's customer care that made the difference. We cannot praise Courtney highly enough and she is an asset to Papas. We will be returning.

A very different type of chippy restaurant. The waiting team were very nice and friendly. The food was nice and certainly large portions. The only downside was we went in the evening and the place was quite dirty by then and the tables were sticky and there was a fair bit of food on the floor. Definitely worth a visit just to see the past grandeur of the pier.

Slow service and very poor fish. We were giving them one last chance as we used to love it here. We were a group of 4 and only had a short wait to be taken to a table. It wasn’t busy so we opted to make the most of the weather and sit outside. We placed our order at the bar then sat chatting. After roughly 20 minutes we realised we hadn’t got drinks yet. A couple who came and sat on the next table had been there approximately 5 minutes and got their drinks, obviously at that point we asked where our drinks were. They then came after a couple of minutes. When the meal came (we all had fish & chips, the fish looked lovely until you cut into them. They were so thin! Mostly batter. My Husbands fish was very brown on the bottom and ridiculously dry. No one came to ask how the meal was so we just made the best of it. A tip for the staff… it’s really not nice having to queue to wait to be shown to a table in a narrow corridor when it’s where people exit and it’s right outside the disabled toilet! Wouldn’t it be better having people stand in the space near the doors into the lounge area like you used to do! We have already said next time our friends visit we will go elsewhere. Shame as like I said they loved going there too.

Great fish and chips and service with a smile. Leanne and Lauren were brilliant, moving us to a table that accommodated crutches so that we were not tripping anybody up. Haddock and Chips was delicious (probably too much though). Whoever said that the young are workshy and lazy have never been in this restaurant when it is full, all servers were pleasant, smiling and very busy. We didn't wait too long, a wait is to be expected when you see a restaurant this full. Many thanks, See you again.

Good location and lovely views. Servers were all very pleasant. Outstanding servers goes to Jake and Lauren. Delightfull young people who appeared to enjoy the work they do and that reflected on the service. I found portions a bit to much for me and ends of fish dry which could be avoided by pre cutting those straggly bits off prior to cooking. Size is not always best.

Dinner time visit for me and my daughter. Ordered the seafood platter. ( scampi ,whitebait,and calamari) and a medium fish and chips to share. Looked after by Jake and Leanne . The food came reasonably quickly and we set about enjoying the seafood feast the curry and mushy peas sides tasted good. Everything was right the fish was perfect and cooked spot on. I was just enjoying this when leanne checked in . I had noticed that our seafood platter was missing calamari. So asked why though we were really enjoying what had arrived. Leanne enquired in the kitchen and discovered that the calamari had run out . She then made every attempt to rectify the kitchens error. Offering complimentary food or drinks to correct the omission. My daughter had a drink and as I was driving and enjoying my 1 pint of Guinness allowed I opted for some more scampi. This was brought out quickly and we enjoyed the remainder of the meal. Normally such omissions would result in lost stars , but leanne in particular had done her best to remedy the issue. Customer service is about looking after the customer and the personal touch. I deleted one star for the cook who thought he could get away with short changing the Customer. Had we been told we would've just had additional scampi anyway.. but an additional star for the excellent customer service from leanne and Jake

Ordered medium haddock and chips and 2 sides for my partner and myself. Food came out cold! The entire order had to be replaced, however, sides didn’t appear which we had to wait for. Food was a little warmer but cold by the time our sides came out. We were offered a voucher, I can guarantee I will not be eating anything here again. Waste of £40

This is the second time we have experienced the same problem, we made a booking for 2 pm was 2.20 before we got a table we were a party of 3 adults a five year old and 18 month twins - we were put on a table for 4 with no room to put the high chairs. We had put on our booking that we neesed 2 highchairs but were told the waiter could only find 1 would that do! No it wouldn't we have two toddlers! Luckily a waitress, Leanne, notice and found us a larger table and another high chair. We placed our order 2.30, we waited, and waited - Leanne again noticed and went to see where our order was - we finally got food at 3.45. The changing room and toilets were disgusting and when people were complained nothing was done to rectify this. We were not the only ones complaining - when people were coming in to get a table they are told there is a 30-40 minute wait - nothing is mentioned about the 30-40 minutes you then wait for your food. Apparently our order had also got lost. Food was OK but there are better places in Cleethorpes. Would have give the 1 star apart from our waitress Leanne who looked after us as much as she was able - she was lovely and getting flack from other customers who were also disgruntled. Will not be going back.

Love going to Papas. We decided to sit in the restaurant which was lovely and clean. We both ordered fish and chips with a side of curry sauce. Our waitress, Charlie, was very attentive and our food was served up very quickly and efficiently. The fish tasted so fresh and the batter was lovely and crisp. The chips were cooked perfectly (nice and soft inside but crispy outside). The curry sauce was great as always. All of the staff were friendly and we were greeted by Leanne on arrival. She always makes you feel at ease and although efficient....she always has time for her customers. The whole atmosphere is very homely and relaxed. Will be back soon. Top marks !

We visited here today as a family of 7, like any place there was things that could be improved like the toilets for instances needed some attention. However I was blown away by the staff here. They were constantly sweeping floors ensure everyone was comfortable and having an enjoyable experience. When we arrived we were seated by Courtney who was very pleasant and asked us about our weekend. Unfortunately it hasn’t been the best weekend due to a family bereavement. Courtney was incredibly empathetic and brought us some complementary drinks which was very thoughtful. Once we had ordered Jake brought our cutlery to the table and my sister in law asked if there was any fruit shoot type drinks for the children or straws. Jake explained the situation and we thanked him. Within minute he returned to the table with the last 2 children’s drinks that were in today and apologised that there was no straws. Amazing amazing service. Not just 1 but multiple staff members going above and beyond. I’m immensely impressed. Well done Courtney and well done Jake. Fab job!

Pre booked tables as we were a large party of 31 and were accommodated very well and seated at the time booked. The ordering system needs improvement, it wasn’t made clear to us that we needed to order food at the bar. On the menu it stated a QR code ordering system but on trying to use this it didn’t work, the lady looking after us informed us that it doesn’t work so you need to queue up at the tills. There was only two tills to do this and long queues. Despite the wait to order, the food came relatively quickly and was fresh and hot. Portion sizes were very generous and there was plenty. Overall, good value for money, lovely fish and chips and accommodating to a very large party. Better use of staff to take orders or more ordering and payment stations would be beneficial during busy periods or get the QR ordering system working.

Food was good value for money, will say one sausage (breakfast size) on the kids meal and the smallest glass of pop you could get was a bit tight for the price. I mean my small fish and chips had less chips on the plate than his kids meal? But still nice food. Steph the girl who served and seated us was lovely, really chatty and friendly. Would come back but just skip the kids meal and get a regular meal, kids food not worth the money.

Went Wednesday,March 20th for lunch, just me & the missus. Ordered 2 x Cod & chips, 2 x Curry Sauces, Bread & butter, tea for 2. Having already paid at the desk the not inexpensive amount of £37 something, we sat down and were served our tea relatively quickly. We noticed that the cutlery hadn't been cleaned properly and the teapot was stained on the outside. The main meal arrived, the cod was more batter than fish, the chips were disgusting. Lots were black, a new potato supplier is needed. One curry sauce would have sufficed, but it wasn't nice, no flavour, too dark. All in all the experience was disappointing, a waste of money. They need more staff and a kick up the bum. Rating 4/10

Went out for the day in Cleethorpes and decided to stop by at papas for fish and chips the restaurant was chilly but that was ok as when the food arrived it was delicious! The large cod wasn't too dry and the chips were cooked to perfection. The chip shop platter was perfect especially the fishcake which went down well with some bread and butter. The staff too were amazing served by ty and Layla, making sure everything was ok for us. Overall I would recommend papas fish and chips the food the staff and the environment is amazing. I just think that maybe the restaurant could be a little warmer

We always come to Papa’s in Cleethorpes for family birthdays. The staff are always so lovely and kind and are happy to sing Happy Birthday and bring out a cake with candles on if we give it to them. The food is wonderful. We love it here. Marcos and Stella really went above and beyond tonight for my son’s 7th birthday. They made him feel really special. What lovely people, it’s why we keep coming back.

Papa’s Fish n Chips on the famous pier… What more could you want! The famous Pier is fabulous alone, then add a sea view restaurant and a good old fish & chips menu in newspaper form.. you can’t go far wrong. We were greeted on a cold wet February evening by warm and friendly staff there at Papa’s Fish & Chips. They accommodated us with a lovely table by the window, that had a great view of the beach and the pier gardens seafront. The restaurant itself retains a beautiful interior decor of a once past period of elegance, with chandeliers hanging in the main larger restaurant area, with stage and piano! Our service staff that evening looking after us was ‘Stella’, A lovely attentive lady with good knowledge of the piers past and surrounding area. She waited on us and nothing was too much trouble, drinks, extras and food all arrived in a timely manner, given that this restaurants full service is for 500 covers! The food arrived with good presentation, and Stella brought extras we had asked for, there was even a heater by our table, we were more than comfortable. We would highly recommend this food establishment, if not for the food alone and great service, but for a glimpse into the past on a unique pier setting alone. Given the size of the restaurant I’m sure in the peak summer months it may not be surprising that food orders may take a little longer, and patience comes at no extra cost and just being mindful of the capacity of this unique eatery. 👍🏼

I don't think a bad review should be given unless an establishment has been given the chance to address the issue first......and here we are. Having been to papas several times, apart from the very first time it has got progressively worse. Unless it's summertime it is FREEZING. Make sure you wrap up for a brisk winters walk if you go there. The service? Well, even if there are only 4 tables occupied in the whole place the service can be pretty poor. Wait to be seated. Wait for someone to attend the order desk so you can order (no table order service here). The 'wait' staff, in general, seem to have missed the memo on customer service. There have been 2 occasions (including this evening) where there has been a staff member who has been especially engaging. The other occasion....Well, never seen them again. So, on to tonight. Approx 8 tables occupied. Superb ordering at the desk, the gent was commendable. I mentioned, in context of the very engaging conversation, it was my wife's birthday (our teenage son was with us also). Straight away the gent asked us if my wife would like a small birthday cake at the table after our meal. What a lovely gesture, yes please. "I'll make it happen". Anyway, meal arrived, all looked fine. However, the chips were a little scrappy and scarce. No big deal. Anyway, after getting through the fish(which was lovely this evening) the chip scraps hidden beneath were grim....scrappy, black...not good. Anyway, it happens, no drama. When table being cleared we politely mentioned the chip issue, and certainly didn't make a big deal of it. "Oh, sorry". That was the result of the wait staff response. Now, I didn't expect an award or grovelling apology....but that was it. Did I want a bill reduction? Helll no, I would have declined. Me raising this was purely to help them improve. Anyway, the birthday cake. We waited 15 mins after the table had been cleared (we were wrapped up btw as it wasn't warm). Nothing. I asked a passing wait staff, "what cake?" I explained the situation. Off she went. Anyway, I interrupted her going into the kitchen to find out what was happening with any kind of cake, if it existed....and said it didn't matter, the moment had passed. And we left. I sure hope this place smartens itself up for summer season otherwise I fear its not long before this place closes. I've been to more engaging, better service takeaways.

Papas restaurant is the best reason to visit Cleethorps. The food is delicious, Alisha and staff were friendly and helpfulI. I had the battered hullumi as usual and it was as delicious as ever. We sat at a side table and had a great view of the beach and promenade while drinking our lovely cappuccinos.

This place has changed over the years, after last year (2023) I wasn't sure if I wanted to come back, but I'm glad it did. Myself and mostly Gluten Free family had lovely carvery. - Good Cleanliness - Decent Atmosphere - Nice Setup - Meat was cooked to perfection. 🤌🏻 There's were however a things that wasn't particularly great... - I was the only person in the line for a carvery and I watched 12 minutes go by. - The roast potatos were VERY crispy. - No more refillable drinks! I got very annoyed standing there, I have a blue badge due to my disability and my lordosis wasn't doing great but I managed. I know people that wouldn't be able to manage that kind of wait which could take away their independence. Admittedly I only had one roast potato, I like to think I pick the ones that look the best and look fluffy. But the texture and taste wasn't great. Could have been a bad pick, bad batch or just a bad day. I have really enjoyed them in the past. For a refillable drink it only cost 15p more than a regular pint of pop. 😬 So I was shocked to find that there is no more refillable.

Sourdough with starter was like a rock, tried to cut, all over the table. Main course fish was average. Main course was lukewarm, cous cous was cold and clumpy, flat bread was like cardboard, salad was fine! Expensive, didn’t complain but would never return or recommend
