About This Pub
Ah, Glennys Bar – it's one of those unassuming pubs in Scunthorpe that really grows on you once you step inside. From what I've gathered from the chats and reviews, it's brilliant for sinking a decent pint while having a good old natter with the regulars; that sense of community is what makes it stand out. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, especially with the staff and owners being so approachable, and it's spot on for hosting parties in that spacious back room with its big dance floor – perfect if you're planning a birthday bash or just a casual get-together. Plus, those traditional Sunday lunches at a steal of a price are an absolute winner for a hearty meal without the fuss. On the flip side, it can feel a bit hit-or-miss if you're not up for the owners' unique personalities, and without a website, sorting out visits might take a bit more effort. Overall, though, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening out; I'd say give it a go if you're in the area, as the positives far outweigh the minor niggles, and you'll likely leave with a smile and maybe even a new mate or two.

Cons
-
One or two folks have mentioned the owners can be a bit quirky, which might not click with everyone, though they're still pleasant.
-
The place doesn't have its own website, so it's a tad tricky to get more details or book ahead without popping in or calling.
-
From what I've seen, it's mostly open in the afternoons and evenings, which could be limiting if you're after a morning pint.
-
A couple of reviews suggest it's just 'ok' for events, so it might not always hit the mark for something really special.

Great pint and the banter with the locals is brilliant. What else does anyone need
Went to a party here not long ago it was ok the back room was really big and so was the dance floor.
I've never been in, but I've heard it's a great place to go for a Sunday lunch. The beers meant to be great as well. I might try it this weekend if I get a chance. I believe the owners are a bit odd, but nice to talk to.
Great pub with a great atmosphere. Steve & Liz who own the pub are fantastic landlords and friends. I would recommend you book in for a delicious traditional Sunday lunch 🙂
I held my 50th birthday here it was a great night, nice prices and friendly staff loved it! They also do a fantastic Sunday dinner £6 a head.
