The Steamboat Cookhouse + Pub in East Lindsey

Great experience..and no surprise, given the care and attention to detail shown by all the staff. We could see the kitchen as we waited, and it was clear that the chefs enjoyed their job and took pride in the food they were preparing. Combining courteous yet informal service, and superb value for money, this restaurant is a great place to enjoy a meal!

Great service, the poor girl was run off her feet but still gave great service. Food was lovely and hot

Meal ok , 2 meals about £11 pounds, staff good, Air con very cold , staff said heating was on , felt like we were sitting in a Draft, 😕 ,

Had my daughter's 8th birthday here and the staff were brilliant I brought a cake with me and asked if they could bring it out when we had finished which they did singing Happy Birthday she really enjoyed herself and her steak

Kayleigh was fantastic under pressure but honestly couldn't do enough to help well done

Great food had burger and chips was great the best part of the visit was the server Amanda was friendly and nice wold recomend

Kayleigh delivered a lovely service, the food was excellent aswell quick and prompt, Kayleigh was very thorough with making sure by asking if we had any allergies and also checking to see if we are ok, other than that everything was excellent cant ask for much more, will definitely be coming back again.

Very good experience over a long weekend.Top service,food gr8 and good atmosphere.

Food was average. Staff was so rude, to the point where we asked for a different server. First of all she I’d me (which I get is her job, challenge 25 as I work in a pub myself) but I’m 32 and look way older then 25, but she told me I look younger then 21 (which I know I should take as a compliment but frustrating when you don’t have you I’d on you). Then got another member of staff, who actually knew me, and said she could vouch for my age, when I used to actually work with her… after that I ordered a corona cero, along came the drinks and she passed me a Coke Zero, I was sorry we ordered a corona cero, and the server was like no you didn’t you ordered a Coke Zero cos I can’t give you the corona cero. I was like okay fair enough but you took my order of me asking for a corona cero, so as I was looking at the menu for a soft drink, she was like ‘we’ll do you want this Coke Zero or not!’ Which I thought was really rude. I could then hear 2 of the staff members slagging off our table, not being discreet at all! First time coming to this place, and as a local I wouldn’t recommend and I won’t be returning!!

I ordered Vegan burger which came along with fries and salad. Also my partner orders pizza both tasted good.

Always a pleasure to come back. This time we were looked after by Nicolla, who done a great job not just looking after us but in overall. The atmosphere is great, the food is really good too, waiting time is also very efficient. Can't forget to mention another waitress which I don't remember her name..dark hair, foreign accent, wear glasses.. over a year I see her working and she is an amazing professional too. In fact a big well done to the whole team . Can't wait to come back soon.

Fantastic food, chefs are top notch and very experienced

We had a lovely meal at the Steamboat & excellent service from Morgan who was very good looking after my wife's dietary needs as well. We will definitely return

Absolutely disgusted the bar closed at 9.55pm , told its not a pub its a restaurant even though it clearly says pub outside. Told bar closes at 10pm but was closed before and on the Web site it states 11pm.

We had not booked but we were seated non the less. Kayleigh was our server and she was great, our food came in a timely manor and was hot, which is great on a cool autumn evening. We enjoyed a drink from the bar and we will definitely come again.

We dined at the the steamboat cookhouse on Fri 11th Oct, we were served by amanda who was very pleasant and nothing was too much trouble, lovely atmosphere in there and the food was lovely, well definitely be going again when up in this area.

Today 7th Oct I went to the Steamboat with a neighbour to sample their value meals...2 for £10.99 netween 12 and 6pm. We both opted for fish chips and mushy peas with a side order of onion rings. Shane was the member of staff who looked after us. He was welcoming friendly efficient and his customer service second to none. The food arrived fresh hot and a very large portion of fish was accompanied by plenty of chips and peas. I highly recommend the Steamboat Been here a few times now and the duty manager Josh and our waitress Nicole were a credit to Steamboat. Nicole went above and beyond with a request my partner had in providing an addition to her sirloin steak meal that I was not charged for. I had the Smothered Platter and it was definitely value for money and a whole plate of food. The Steamboat is comfortable and clean incuding the toilets and the staff are helpful and polite. Just some minor negative comments are the staff could wear an idenification badge as I prefer to address people personally by name drink prices are slightly expensive and they had a xmas tree adverting their xmas menu on 4th Sept ☹️

Such welcoming staff and helped out when I got stuck on my words on what I was trying to say. Our waiter was absolutely wonderful and helped us out so much. Absolutely delicious food as well although my onion rings were super small (still tasty though!

Skegness restaurant connected to hotel excellent food atmosphere and great staff very relaxed to enjoy

Service from Kayleigh was excellent. Food and atmosphere was very good too.

Called in when we checked into the hotel. Hadn’t booked a table but we were very well looked after by Kayleigh. She was lovely!

Had half price offer for here, staff are always friendly and come to the table to take orders, the menu has downsized a bit, but still plenty to choose from, was a bit let down with the pizza, was worth it for half price but wouldn't of been happy if I would of paid full price

Big stack burger is to die for would recommend gets busy fast so recommend to book

This is the 5th time we have been here now and all 5 times the staff have been rude miserable and seem to go out there way not to help you they couldn't careless worst customer service I have received me and my wife waited 45 mins for our food to receive a cold spicy chicken burger and a cold sirloin steak that was like eating leather we left most of the food and rather than argue with the rude staff we just paid our bill and left we stay at the Premier Inn attached to this place and where put off going for breakfast the next day by how bad it was the night previously we have had good food here before but the staff night and day are the worst judging by the comments your aware your staff are terrible but could care less as long as the money keeps coming in.

Amazing service from both front and back. Was amazing seeing the chefs working so hard to make our food. The waiter that served us was polite and knowledgeable with my allergies (I have a few) thank you to the team for an amazing night

Went this afternoon for dinner and wasn't what we hoped. Waited a long time be to seated and served. The staff were nice enough. There wasn't many but the place wasn't busy either. Wasn't told they had ran out of beef for the Sunday roast. But after we finally ordered food it turned up quickly. My child's kids meal of pizza was larger than my adults Pie and mash. The food was average and the chefs liked to move food around the plates with there hands. (We sat on a table were we could see the kitchen) we was in and out in an hour with just one course. I wouldn't go again.

Steve the breakfast chef was so happy and friendly delivering a delicious breakfast great ambiance

great place, food was really good, lovely service, will be back again

Came in for breakfast with my family this morning absolutely amazing service, the place is very clean and tidy, also the vaule meals for £10.99 looks good we will be in soon for that, the staff are lovely and polite.

Spot on breakfast with a warm welcome for our party from the receptionist.

My wife and I a lovely time at the steamboat cookhouse in skegness, we were served by Kayleigh, and she is an absolute diamond, the service was first class, and kayleigh couldn't do enough for us..10/10

Booked for Sunday Roast a week ago as we were travelling 3 hours for a little break. But what a let down you were, no roasts were being served at15:40pm but you advertise Sunday Roast until 6pm!!! Don't advertise what you can't supply especially when people have booked well in advance. Settled for steak but chips are not Sunday Roast. Will not be booking again. Sorry but you let a family of 5 down today.

Had a lovely meal service spot on and prices acceptable

Went in today was greeted by the host Josh, was seating quickly after he went and cleared a table for us, after this was served by our waiter Shane who was great and very attentive everyone was working very hard, came about 4:30 and managed to get the last of the roast gammon which was beautiful was a very busy Sunday after noon, well done to all the staff you all never stopped working. Will return soon

Lovely cheap and cheerful meal amazing service from Kayleigh

My mum and myself went here for Sunday lunch on the 15th of September 2024, I pre-booked as I was unsure how busy it got plus I wanted to let them know in advance my mum would be in a wheelchair. We were greeted at the main entrance by a lovely gentleman who welcomed us in and showed us to our table, he gave my mum a choice in regards to where she'd like to sit or if she'd prefer to stay in her wheelchair and he'd move one of the chairs for her, we both felt this was very nice as people sometimes presume someone with a disability is unable to make choices or decisions. Our server was a lovely young lady called Kayleigh, she was very pleasant, polite and welcoming, she gave us some menu's and asked if we'd like some drinks whilst we looked at these, after taking our order's it wasn't long before our food came, we both had the carvery with all 3 meats-beef, turkey and gammon, it was absolutely delicious, the meat was so tender it melted in your mouth, I ate all my meal but mum couldn't eat all hers, in view of this Kayleigh kindly bought her a large piece of foil and a paper carrier bag so she could take what she'd left away and have it later. Where we were sat we could see the chef's cooking and serving the food, they were like a well-oiled team, they were very professional plus one or two of them would suddenly burst into song which we thought was great! We will definitely be visiting here again next time we are in Skegness, we can't recommend it enough to people if you're looking for somewhere nice to eat, with a good atmosphere, nice surroundings and delicious food.

Quick and really nice food for vegetarians, and vegans, and service was friendly, kirk was particularly helpful especialy when we were asking dietary questions

Seated very quickly. Very polite and helpful staff. Food was very reasonably priced and came out in a timely manner. We all thoroughly enjoyed our dishes. Would definitely recommend a visit. We will be back again.

Beer tasted awful , told couldn't get a table but empty . Left full pints of rats piss and went to the bar across the road. Don't bother

Excellent parking and service (Kayleigh) roast dinner lacked green vegetables, parsnips and meat were good and portion was ample.

Great service from Kayleigh who was very polite and friendly. Lovely food, would dine again.

Great food! Highly appreciate the service. Kayligh and other staff were doing their great job in accommodating me and my baby

A fantastic visit from start to finish. Morgan was very kind to everyone including the kids. Glen the manager was pleasant. The food was fantastic, what a lovely Sunday dinner and very quick service.

Great service and polite staff, Food was great 👍

Service was excellent , and I had a beautiful mixed grill.

The best restaurant that I have been to for good value food polite staff and helpful spacious set out clean inside and out.

The service and food were excellent.

Excellent vegan burger! We stopped by as its one of few places that do vegan options. I didn't expect it to be good tbh, but needs must! But I was so surprised! We both ordered vegan burgers, you can add an extra burger for just £1.99! This isn't bacon for just 99p. Go bunless if you want. Yummy vegan coleslaw. Really nice. Highly recommend. Kayleigh served us and she was so nice, so quick and attentive. Highly recommend.

We went they and matre,d told us the food is 30 mins wait, we said ok but it then nearly 20 min to take our order and drinks. took another 10 mins for 2 pints larger come to our table. When finally the food turned up and this is shared started we ask for red pepper we got red onion, tho the lass took our order must have miss herd us because she was not really paying attion. We then got our main still while our starter plate was still they and we did not get ask if wanted another drink and did not take the starter plate. My over season with tomato on where could taste the minced in the lasagna. My husband was enjoying his burger in which is say is supposed to be stacked it looked like a double cheeseburger half way through he found a white hair when we try get attention we got ignored we ask for the receipt we still waiting ten mins and I had go to the till to pay because I had enough considering it table service sucks and it cost over 40 for that service in which in could spent that at McDonald's or KFC

We had the pleasure of having a evening meal here Sunday 25th August, now bearing in mind it was a Bank holiday weekend the place was really busy, the service staff were great, we booked a table easily, and returned a little later for our meal. The waitress I believe her name was Haley, was brilliant she made sure we had everything we wanted, great service with a smile. Our food was very good, there were some slight alterations to our order because of how busy it was, the substitutes were acceptable. We really enjoyed our meals, a nice treat for our busy grandparenting break. Thank you guys we shall return again, hopefully in the near future.

We were a walk in today and were instantly told it was self service only, which we didn’t mind initially. However whilst waiting for our food, all other tables were told it was table service. When we asked why, we were told it was cause we hadn’t booked??? We were paying the same as everyone else. Meals arrived and I asked for some spicy sauce, which I was told I would also need to request from the bar. All other tables were able to request from their tables. I had pizza which was rock hard and cold. The toppings were raw. The side portion of onion rings were also cold and hard. My partner had a mixed grill which for the price was disappointing. The peice of steak was no more than 10cm and I think I’m been generous. He had egg shell all in his whites of his eggs also. We waited to speak with someone however kept getting ignored as they continued to speak and deal with other tables. We left eventually but would be grateful if someone can contact me me for a refund as we wasn’t happy with the food or service.

Mixed grill not good at all egg shell with both eggs which wasn’t runny

Turned up here at around 5pm for something to eat as a family of 6. Waited to be seated only to be told there was a 2 and a half hour wait as they had nothing........ The place was half empty! I'm not sure who is managing the seating plan or schedule but definitely needs reviewing as this was ridiculous. I don't normally write a review without actually eating or trying the service but considering how empty it was just seemed like they were turning custom away for an easy shift. Shame as it looked lovely which is why we aimed to get in. If I actually get the chance to get a meal I'll change my review to reflect but up to yet this is my experience. Sorry!

No Sunday lunch on Sunday.. Piss poor service

Has to be the best run restaurant ever we went for brekky and the place was busy but the staff wernt stressed and had smiles on their faces . Everything was stocked up very effencent with replenishing food . Big pat on the back to you guys you're manager should be so proud. Oh and the food was spot on its a ten from @fatladreviews

Very slow service. Sat with empty plates waiting for staff to take away for 25 minutes!

Kayleigh is so lovely service so excellent

Cheap and cheerful. Great service. Toilets awful.

A really good value restaurant with an extensive breakfast buffet selection. Plenty of vegan options cooked to order and delivered to your table. I would recommend booking as it was very busy today. £10.99 for unlimited cooked breakfast and £8.99 for unlimited continental. Staff are amazing and very friendly. I have taken photos of the menu for your reference.

My self and my family arrived and was told to wait a hour and half for a table , so we asked if we could do the parking and come back in a hour and half , the lady behind the desk said no , we will have to wait until we dine before doing the parking. This wasn’t a issue so we headed into town for a hour and then returned , as we returned the same female then told us it had got very busy whilst we had been away and now we would have to wait a further hour and half making this a full 3 hours until we could eat . We informed the lady that parking is only for 3 hours so we would have to leave it and find some where else instead , after waiting around for hours and being told still no , we thought they may let us do our parking but this was rejected once again . I asked how I could sort parking out where i was told to read the signs outside … it states put Reg inside pub or £95 fine. After back and forwards , we left and now awaiting a £95 parking fee all thanks to being messed about by this horrible place . AVOID AT ALL COST !!!

Unfortunately didn’t get to dine, arrived with my partner looking forward to a nice meal for the evening. Parked up and saw there were plenty of available tables so went for a bit of a walk around the town before coming back nice and hungry and ready for our meal….. or so I thought. Still plenty of free tables so very surprised to be told there is an hour and a half wait for a table by the young lady at the door. As I wasn’t really in a wait for an hour and a half mood we decided that due to this inconvenience we would go elsewhere and asked if they could validate our parking so we could leave, this is where it becomes very strange. They cannot validate our parking until we have ordered food so would have to wait for the hour and a half before it could be valid, we then asked could we pay for our parking and was told just use the barcode on the signs outside. There are no barcodes on the signs outside, there is no machine and there is no help. I feel so let down as a customer and can only hope that you can improve for your next guests as I will never return to your restaurant.

Went yesterday food really disappointing . Got a baked potato 🥔 which was nearly uneatable. 2 seconds longer in the microwave and it would have been. Along with the onion rings which were so bland. Also vegetarian burger far from the best I've tried. Nearly £40 for 2 meals been better off going to Wetherspoons for less than half the price.

The food was delicious, and the saver Kayleigh was very nice and helpful, and polite. Would highly recommend it

3rd visit to this venue and as always service was excellent. Our waiter James was second to none nothing was too much . Will visit again when back in skegness April 2025

Great food and waiters were really friendly and helpful

Had dinner here this weekend. Both of us ordered the fillet steak. We were looked after by a lovely server, very nice evening from start to finish, food was amazing including the ‘crunchie’ cheesecake dessert, can highly recommend!

Great place to eat, great staff 😁

Very friendly staff. Food has been prepared fast and for a good price from fresh ingredients. Recommend

Good food, good service good price.

A reasonable restaurant with a good choice of food. The service was good despite the place being busy

We visited here again today and was served by a lovely young lady named Kayliegh 5252 she looked after us and we were impressed by her good sense of humour it certainly added to our experience at the Steamboat,looking forward to returning again soon.

Premier inn style place cheap lunch deal better than a lot of places we went to

Excellent service by our waitress, kat. The food is very good. I would recommend visiting.

Excellent, very nice food, quick service, excellent front of house staff, very polite, friendly, drinks a little pricey, e.g diet coke 330ml in a glass, £3.15. You can get a pint of beer at other pubs for this price. However, I will come again, if and when I'm in the area. Recommend.

Just the best place on Skegness seafront, Cool beer cool wine good food & just the most bubbly waitress Kat what a star 100% & so busy says it all

Food was great friendly happy atmosphere and staff lovely place very enjoyable meal

Reasonable choice on the menu at affordable prices. Went at lunch time and the service was good despite the number of customers.

Thanks to Sam and the team , excellent service excellent food xx will be back .

The food was nice here and very affordable - we did the 2 mains for £10.99 and 2x £5.99 3 course kids meals. the 2 for £10.99 portions weren’t massive - my kids mains were the same size - but good value for what you pay.

Had a very enjoyable meal last night of chicken and ham pie in a creamy cheesy sauce with peas and mash followed by a knicker bocker glory desert Very tasty . Food arrived in a reasonable time hot and well presented served by friendly staff believe Shane was the waiter but all staff very friendly and welcoming will definitely make this place a regular when visiting Skegness

Best breakfast we have had in a long time thanks

Staff very friendly,prices emmmm,drinks especially soft drinks expensive ,reward card use if you remember it's well worth it

Absolutely lovely staff and food is always nice. Never had any issues, and I go there quite frequently! :)

Had fish chips and mushy peas for my birthday meal it was the worse iv ever had there batter was to hard fish dident look great and the peas were dry

brilliant food, great atmosphere, staff was lovely!

Kayleigh our waitress was absolutely fantastic will defo be coming back food service excellent

Excellent service, Excellent food and lovely atmosphere, would recommend this place anytime, definitely 5 stars

Only went for all you can eat breakfast as I normally go to one nearer home when not at work We pre-booked a table and thank god we did as it was really really busy but there was more food out then my normal place 👍

Thank you Kayleigh for lovely table service

Went with our 2 children, food was great and staff couldn’t do enough to help, definitely recommend

Absolutely excellent on all levels. Greeted with a warm welcome, seated quickly and buffet explained, huge selection of breakfast foods to choose from. We’ve been to lots of buffet breakfasts as a family of 6 and this is by far the best we’ve had. Well stocked cooked items, plentiful and hot. Busy bank holiday morning g and the staff all working their socks off. Everywhere clean, pots and cutlery well stocked and a great price, especially considering children eat free! Can’t fault it, thanks for a great experience.

Food was mid and had to send every meal back, Stephanie (i think that’s how you spell it) was annoying and rude and kept sitting next to us when she was asking for our order which made us uncomfortable, would not suggest this place just go to mcdonald’s down the road xx

Absolutely beautiful place for a family meal. The decor inside was beautiful and the whole place felt very clean and fresh. We were very well looked after by our server, Kat, who was also happy to engage with our 2year old daughter when she wanted to give Kat hugs and high 5s. The pack of crayons and a tom & Jerry picture to colour for our daughter was a lovely little touch. The food was very reasonably priced and the fact we could get a 3course meal for £5.99 (including 2sides with her main course) for our daughter was absolutely fantastic. All the food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection!! Next time we are in Skegness, we will definitely be back

Came here for an evening meal and must say service we received was top notch, the staff were friendly with excellent service and the food was delicious. Highly recommend this place!

Great place to have a meal. I went tonight to have some food and drinks. Our server was was chole , she was super friendly and was very good.

The women behind the bar was rude last time I visit

Great food, great service. Plenty of parking.

Food OK. Nothing special. Expensive for portion size. Lukewarm chips. Waiter did not ask if we required sauces had to go to bar to ask. Table sticky. When table cleared after we had finished meal waitress did not ask how meal was. In fact no interaction from staff at all. Was hoping to bring a party of friends here next week before we all go to a show. But on today's experience I'm afraid we will not. Wetherspoons red Lion far out shines Steamboat. Not a patch on Brewers Fayre in Boston.

Lovely atmosphere, very clean, lovely staff, chef cooked to perfection and everything was topped up just when you'd hope. One of the best premier breakfasts I've been too.

All day buffet breakfast good value for money. Eat as much as you like for £10.99 with 3 hours free parking for your visit to Skegness. I called twice whilst in the area. Recommended.
