Bar Retro in Scunthorpe

Ah, Bar Retro – it's one of those places in Scunthorpe that you hear about and think, 'Why not give it a go?' From the reviews I've had a look at, it's got this buzzing atmosphere with music that's an absolute belter, mixing things up to keep the night interesting. The staff behind the bar come across as genuinely warm and chatty, which makes the whole experience feel more like catching up with mates than just another night out. It's particularly nice to see it's appealing to a broader crowd, including those of us who might not be up for the wildest scenes anymore. But, let's be straight, there are a couple of downsides that could trip you up – like the door staff who've been called out for being a bit confrontational in some cases, which is a real shame as it might sour the start of your evening. Plus, with it only opening on Sundays, it's not the most flexible spot for spontaneous plans. All in all, with a solid 4.2 rating, I'd say it's worth popping in if you're in the mood for a good time, just go in with your eyes open and maybe plan around those limited hours.
