The Coliseum Picture Theatre in Cleethorpes

Ah, The Coliseum Picture Theatre – it's one of those pubs that really stands out with its rich history as a former cinema, giving it a unique and welcoming atmosphere that's hard to beat. I love how they've made the most of the space, with a fabulous rooftop garden that's ideal for a relaxed catch-up with mates on a sunny afternoon, and the prices are just what you'd expect from a Spoons – brilliant value for everything from cask ales to a full breakfast. The staff are genuinely warm and attentive, adding to that homely feel. On the downside, though, it can get a bit chaotic when the crowd builds up, leading to waits for drinks that might dampen the mood, and trekking from the bar to the outdoor spots feels like an extra adventure you might not fancy. All in all, it's a solid spot for a good night out, but keeping an eye on the busier times will help you make the most of it – honest, it's got plenty going for it if you're after a mix of character and affordability.
