Where to start as another person said bog standard pub, wanted a nice cold drink as it was warm and my partner who is pregnant wanted a nice cold quality drink of cola but when the the barmaid who never smiled or had manners cracked open a fresh cheap bottle of cola i felt like walking out if indidnt have paid before hand, we sat down with our dog no signs to say no dogs allowed, we sat down 30 seconds after having a drink for her to come across and say no dogs allowed were serving food now, went outside no were to sit think they had 3 tables, partner who is pregnant had to stand luckily not long as we drank it quick and left asap never again.

We came here Saturday at 11.30 am on a Jolly Boys. Coach full of us. Was made welcome. The drinks were nice and decent prices. Staff were nice and polite. It's a nice little pub facing the sea. Although you couldn't see it due to tide being out. We'd definitely visit again on our next Jolly Boys.

Called in for a drink recently while visiting Cleethorpes. This is your bog standard seaside boozer, manner free zone...don't expect any smiles, please or thank yous in here.. none of the two barmaids had completed the charm course. Entertainment is good though as the locals seem to use the pub as a short cut to the sea front and walk straight through with out closing the door then the locals complain and close it ! There are some nice pubs in Cleethorpes.,...this isn't one of them.

This pub states it is dog friendly but not the case! We went in today with our little dog to be turned away because they were serving food. The barmaid said we could have drinks if we sat outside in the cold. So Bill Parkinson and Willy's don't promote yourself as dog friendly when clearly you are not!

I used to rate this pub highly,but having returned this year I was very disappointed .The young staff seem half asleep and complacent for most of the time. People were waiting at the bar forever before they were even acknowledged. A fair few customers that were trying to chat to each other,eventually gave up and left after blaring inappropriate garage music was played,blasting in peoples ears so that they couldn't hear themselves think.The choice of ales was very limited too.I for one shall not be returning unfortunately.

Been to Cleethorpes many times but never here so thought we'd try it. Very friendly welcoming service, good selection of drinks at fair prices and very good quality. Only 3 small tables at the front outdoors but loved having a pint and watching the ships go by. So good we went back before we had to leave for the day. Negative to that was that the staff on duty later didn't really compare with our earlier experience. Excellent for the early afternoon but have gone with very good overall given the later not as welcoming experience.

Having had an unpleasant experience previously ( review 24 May) I would now like to review my experience in the light of the response of Willy’s staff. The response was both positive and professional. I was reimbursed immediately without question and I thank the member of staff who was upset for the original error. I have been in recently and everything about Willy’s is brilliant-what an asset to Cleethorpes! There are two sides to every story; I shouldn’t have been overcharged but I shouldn’t have passed judgement before the staff at Willy’s had had chance to rectify their mistake.

Having eaten in Willy’s many times before And throughly enjoyed it, today was not the same!! I ordered the mixed cheese ploughman’s. it came with cheddar, Brie and blue cheese which would have been great it it hadn’t been served with soft cheese bread. I have never known a ploughman’s served with soft bread and no pickle. When I questioned it I was told that this is how they always did it. It certainly wasn’t the last time I had it as I would have never of eaten it. I was promptly told that I couldn’t have a refund and that they would put some ham and more hard cheese on it. The food came out on the same plate with the same bread with a little more cheese and some ham. The damage was done and I ate nothing more so would have cost the pub more money than giving me a refund. The lady’s attitude behind the bar changed so much when I had mentioned my food. Utter disappointment and shocking customer service and satisfaction.

Having just returned home from Willy's tonight, I am moved to write this review as a warning to others. For years I have enjoyed drinking in Willy's; the view, the ambience and the beer. Tonight was no different - a beautiful evening looking out on to the beach, the bar buzzing and the atmosphere convivial. However after having been overcharged last week whilst paying by card, I have checked my account tonight to find exactly the same thing has happened. I ordered a pint and a dry white wine spritzer for which I have been charged £16.14! People at an adjacent table were drinking champagne and I bet they were charged much less than I was. The bar staff don't give receipts if paying by card which means you can't check immediately whether or not you have been charged correctly. If this has happened to me twice in as many weeks how many more people has this happened to? I know Bill Parkinson well and I hope that he would be appalled that his bar staff are ripping off customers like this. Overcharging the last time I was prepared to write it off as a mistake, but twice!? A lovely evening ruined by the apparent dishonesty of some of the bar staff.

We were offered a few taster shots of the various ales - but settled on the Willys Original - home brewed in a private brewery and the tatse was great. My mate and I had intended a short crawl around the real ale houses - but decided to stay at Willys and drink there. Started at 3pm and drank till 5.30pm by which time the music had slowly crept up and talking was no longer possible without shouting. Atmosphere was relaxed and pretty cool.

What a great selection of curries- beef, lamb, chicken and veggie. Fish or prawn option would have moved rating to a 5. Onion bhaji add ons were best i have ever had ! Curry menu changes each week. Different range over 'heat'- but vindaloo more madras strength in my opinion. Very reasonably priced and better than a certain national pub chains Thursday curry night !

I regularly visit Willy's with friends when visiting Cleethorpes. Always a good selection of ales. It is a shame though that they don't brew more of their own beer. I have visited maybe a dozen times over the years but recently their excellent Willy's Bitter has not been available far too often. Still there's always other good ale on cask. Cheers

The menu has a lot of fish dishes. There are alternatives but less of them. The clientele is varied but friendly. Anyone would fit in here. The decor is a mishmash of styles. The food is cheap but lovely. Portions are smaller than some places but at that price you can’t complain but would recommend a starter or pudding. Service is friendly and good.

They were doing work on the bar when we went in and as a result, only one of the two home-brewed beers were available. It was a thirst quenching, hoppy bitter that tasted quite nice sitting out in the sun at lunchtime. The outside area is a little small, so don't expect to get a table there when it is busy.

Been going in Willy’s on and off since the 80s , my wife , son and myself decided to go up cleethorpes for a few drinks on Saturday afternoon . Our first stop was Willy’s , all had a drink , Stella , cider , lager . Nice pleasant bar maid . We decided to have some lunch , 2 of us had the tai fish cakes and 1 had the haddock goujons . The food was really good and plenty of it , all for under £5 a serving . Good atmosphere with a total spectre of age groups . We will begin to use this pub more often and definitely eat there on a regular basis , thanks to Bill and his staff , Willy’s is still a great pub that has stood the test of time. See you soon

Although the place was quite busy it did not have that friendly feel to it this time and the staff were not quite as helpful as they could be. Drinks were purchased and my wife's tasted rather unusual but couldn't put a finger on it. She referred this to the staff who were not willing to do anything about it. Also In the Good Beer Guide this pub is supposed to be a CAMRA pub. However, on producing my CAMRA card I was told "we don't do that". The pint I had was quite acceptable. The whole experience was not particularly good though. Was it the good weather that affected everyone today?

Whilst the minimalist cafe decor may not be to everyone's taste but for friendliness,value and good beer this can't be beaten-especially if you are lucky enough to bag a front table overlooking the seafront.this establishment is really gaining in popularity-and rightly so!

Informed the barmaid politly if she had any beers unique to the brewery that I could buy to gift to my husband as a birthday gift.

Popular pub, with predominantly lighter guest ales.The beer brewed on the premises, is usually the superior choice.A bit on the chilly side during the colder months, as the heating, when it's on, is from the ceiling downwards. Did we learn nothing from the Romans?Food usually good, but, chips and other deep fried stuff, would be better used for building houses - it can be that tough! Definitely room for improvement!Good atmosphere, but the decor and seating are a little bit tired and lackluster.All in all - worth a visit.

We ordered our food ( my husband the chicken goujons , myself the thai fishcakes ) and drinks and settled at a table . The food took about 10/15 minutes to come and was piping hot when it arrived.The cutlery and condiments are at the end of the bar and homemade coleslaw which was lovely . They have a wide range of meals from burgers to fish to cottage pie .Well worth the money not at all expensive

Willy's has no pretentions to 'gourmet' food but at prices around a fiver you really can't go wrong if your looking for a decent and filling meal. And if you think cheap means frozen you'd be wrong - both dishes we ate had a distinctive home made by mum feel. There also decent real ale from the onsite brewery and other local suppliers. Definitely worth it for a cheap lunch

Really top notch selection of real ales, one home brewed, very reasonable prices. Great location too, friendly staff and manager/owner. Food was only average but served nicely and not expensive. I had the burger and although it wasn't bad, it was very typical of an English pub burger. My friends had various other dishes such as thai fish cakes and chicken strips that they very much approved of. But the beer? Excellent, then a walk on the prom after, very good.

I didn't like the look of this place, not really my kind of place, but got talked into going in...what a little gem. The clientele were very cosmopolitan and friendly, as were the staff and the on site brewed ales were fabulous. If back at Cleethorpes it's likely to be the first pub I aim for.

The food served here is mid range and beer top quality.The bar is nearly always busy and offers a fine range of inexpensive cask ales.Toilets are sometimes a bit grubby and its a rustic pub but could do with a tidy up.

Great Waterfront Pub. Decent meals and range of beers. The Pub sells it's own brews made on site. All good. Definite visit for the Beer Connoisseur. Decent view of Cleethorpes beach too.

What a shame. This has the potential to be a great place,in a fabulous location on the sea front with views to the beach. But after fighting your way through all the smokers on the bench outside, being hit with a stale beer pong as you enter is not very welcoming. My glass had someone else's lipstick on.There is a micro brewery on site and decent beer on offer, but sadly let down by standards of housekeeping and cleanliness

Willy's doesn't seem to operate by the standard pub rule book?? Quite basic decor, not particularly attractive on terms if decor or menu layout BUT it is a great place where the atmosphere changes very much from day to night. Great for lunch or early dinner - I personally would eat later as a gets very busy in bar. Food is lovely and probably best described as home cooked. Very tasty and reasonably priced. Eclectic mix of clients from all ages groups etc. Lively place at night time service, particularly at week ends. Play some great music.

Willy's has the best eclectic clientele - runs the gamut of all ages! Think laid back "ski-bar" ambience. Wonderful place to pop in for a pint and the location across from the beach is great. Food served is made fresh daily on site with locally sourced Lincolnshire ingredients. Thursday nights Curry Club is a must! The range of curries and flavours are as authentic as any local Indian restaurant and generous portions served with basmati rice, naan bread and the seemingly obligatory poppadum! Great atmosphere, great food - highly recommended!

Didn't quite know how to rate Willys.The surroundings are quite basic, some might even say spartan, but warm.The staff were friendly and efficient.The meal was simple but hot and tasty and extremely good value for money.

Was amazed to realise they do food here and at such low prices, a main and a pudding for under a tenner!! all homemade . I've been twice in the past week now thanks to Amy and her amazing cooking, the desserts are to die for had to force myself to finish them as I couldn't bare to leave any . Will definitely be back to try all that they have to offer here

A fantastic little bar on the seafront with views over the river. The pub has its own microbrewery which can be viewed through a large window to the rear of the pub. Meals here are always well made and won't bust the budget. The staff especially of an evening are welcoming and friendly.

We have eaten here a few times, but there is not much going for it really. On the plus side the menu is cheap and cheerful, on the negative side the menu does not change from 1 year to the next, and essentially it is uninspired and "compliments to the microwave oven".

My favourite pub in the area. Great locals, great atmosphere, great bar staff, great music. It's just great OK? Food is very good, especially Thursday night's curry night, big portions of high quality food. The bar stocks a massive selection of real ales, ciders and all sorts of mad spirits. Have a play in Willy's, it won't disappoint

Real ale selection always good here, as is the quality and value of the food offerred , but this place continues to be badly let down by the stark and shabby interior which makes it anything but welcoming. Bare pot tiles, exposed pipework, creaky and noisey furniture, echoey acoustics all combine to make this more reminiscent of an old fashioned gents toilet block than a confortable drinking venue. Its been like this for years....sort it out Willy's! ......oh and the staff are a bit miserable too.

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
