Rift Bar Cocktail Bar in Cleethorpes

8-10 High St, Cleethorpes DN35 8JN

About This Pub

Ah, Rift Bar – it's one of those places that really comes alive after dark in Cleethorpes, with a fantastic light-up dancefloor pumping out all the classic pop hits that get your feet moving straight away. I've heard from mates that the drink selection is spot on, with some great offers that make it feel like a proper treat, and the option to book a table or order via your phone adds a nice modern touch that takes the hassle out of things. It's got that fun, welcoming energy in the best moments, where the staff can be dead chatty and help make your night memorable. But, let's be honest, it's not all roses – the noise can be a right racket, making it tough for a catch-up over drinks, and there are stories floating about of pricey pours and staff who don't always handle issues with a smile, like sorting out a dodgy drink without fuss. Plus, with no food around, you might end up feeling a bit peckish, and the crowd can get a tad wild, which isn't everyone's cup of tea. Overall, if you're after a proper knees-up and don't mind the odd hiccup, it's worth a punt, but maybe plan for a group who's up for the chaos.

Pros and Cons

Pros

The dancefloor is an absolute highlight, with its light-up design and classic pop tunes that get everyone in the mood for a proper night out.
They've got a cracking selection of drinks with some superb offers, making it easy to find something that hits the spot.
Booking a table online is a doddle, and you can even order drinks straight to your table via your phone – proper convenient for a seamless evening.
It's got a fun, friendly vibe in spots, with some staff who really know how to make you feel welcome and keep the energy up.

Cons

Drinks can be a bit on the steep side, and there have been a few grumbles about overcharging or not getting what you paid for.
The noise levels can be overwhelming, turning what might be a chatty night into more of a shout-fest over the music.
No food on offer at all, so you'll have to sort that out elsewhere before heading in, which is a shame for a full evening.
Service isn't always spot on, with some tales of rude staff or managers who don't handle complaints all that well, leaving a sour taste.
It's drawn a rowdy crowd at times, with mentions of drunken antics or other unsavoury goings-on that might put some off their stride.

If I could put no stars I would, absolutely disgusting attitude from the ‘’manager’ after telling her my drink didn’t t taste like a double Malibu and coke but was told if I didn’t pay another £6 she wouldn’t re make the drink even though I hadn’t drank the drink I returned to the bar I had only tasted the drink, I could understand if I was trying to keep the original drink and get another one or retuned the drink when I’d drank it to get another but I simply asked for it to be remade but the attitude from the manager was absolutely disgusting

I've had many a good night's dancing 💃 away here, some fabulous long-term bar 🍸 staff I'm very fond 😀 of, and being able to access the Swashy & Barracuda through the back exit is just a bonus 😜 x

The worst bar in the UK I’ve ever been. The security guy said I couldn’t stay there because I’m foreigner and pushed me out. I felt so disrespected and upset, I hope people don’t go to this bar.
