The New Inn in Bridlington

Ah, The New Inn in Bridlington – it's one of those classic pubs that really pulls you in with its welcoming vibe and great value for money. I have to say, the drinks deals are spot on; you're getting pints for a song, which makes it perfect for a casual catch-up with mates without breaking the bank. The atmosphere is buzzing, especially during live sports – they've got everything from football to Formula 1 on the screens, and it's just the ticket if you're into that. Plus, the karaoke nights are a riot, with some brilliant 80s tunes that get everyone up and dancing, and that beer garden is a gem for soaking up the sun with a cold one in hand. On the flip side, though, service can be a mixed bag; I've heard tales of staff being a tad abrupt, like with families trying to pop in, which might leave you feeling a bit put out. And it's a pity about the odd mishap with events, such as cutting short a big race for something else, or the regulars hogging the karaoke mic – it can make things feel a touch unfair. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxed pint and some entertainment, but it'd be even better with a bit more consistency to keep everyone smiling.
