"at the arrival we were very well welcomed and the service is very nice here, we were set immediately. our starters were great, but that's where it ended! this place had a new boil (cook), as confirmed by the waitress and oh it shows! that is. a scandal for this place. the main thing my wife was served, I would ask someone “have they ever heard of a “Slowed belly Pork”, not to crack sat up?” ... but a huge piece slowly cook grossly fat. the answer would be from anyone who is more important a cook, no! we were then told: "It is not intended to crack and in the did have the slimy fat" I liked one! for someone who has worked in the kitchen for a few years, I find this insulting. in addition, I ordered a filet steak, a beautiful rest of the meat, which should be cooked with carefree bread to be served rare medium “good made” ... the waitress to her loan replaced it... shocked... medium turned. not what I wanted! I also asked for a red wine jes to be served a gravy. without red wine taste! at this point they have to ask who is in the kitchen. it's criminal to have a new cook that doesn't fit the ability to cook dishes with such fantastic products from a brilliant metzger that I spend at least months! these courses can be cooked better at home tonight. credit to the waitresses as they have to pick up the pieces, the owner of porterhouse has to get a proper cook that knows how to cook properly because slowly boiled boils. with a plate of slim un-Rededed pork fat is not as it should be done and filet steak is rare to medium as it says! very disappointed"

"What a find! Great little (it is a bit cosy) Indian restaurant. Don't be put off by the location, the actual food is amazing. We were staying locally, hadn't booked, but were able to get a last minute table. We had a bit of a wait for the food, but gosh it was worth it! My husband had a lamb curry and said it was probably the best lamb curry he has ever had. My chicken makhani was superb, succulent and plenty of chicken breast. Our garlic and coriander naan was huge, hot and very tasty, as were my onion bhajis. We will definitely be back!"

"First time customer Many times I have driven to cleethorpes for gluten free curry sauce and today I was going to do the same, then my wife found the jolly fryer with a huge host of gluten free items including curry sauce The shop was easy to find and parking can be tricky but I managed to park outside. The shop was large and very clean ... like very clean! The staff looked clean presentable ...nothing worse than walking in to a food establishment and seeing someone who looks scruffy! The owner Mr jolly ill get on to him later really has put the effort in to this chippy and it shows The food .... I ordered 1 large gluten free sausage 1 large gluten free cod, gluten free curry sauce and chips The chips wasn't bad .. Nice crisp outer and soft inner they wasn't dripping with oil and nice and dry didn't stick to the box or paper... the only way the chips could be better if they was fried in dripping my personal choice The sausage was a standard chippy sausage not over cooked or dry and was decent The gluten free cod A nice crisp fish batter not to hard and not mushy, the fish was lightly battered and was perfect ... nothing worse than having fish caked in 4mm of batter. The curry sauce A very tasty gluten free curry sauce the viscosity was perfect and wasn't lumpy it was nice and smooth just like the other chippy I use in cleethorpes. Even if you don't have ceoliac disease or a gluten intolerance PLEASE TRY THE GLUTEN FREE CURRY SAUCE!!!! The owner aka... MR JOLLY You can tell he has put his heart in to this place and it shows a very clean and well equipped chippy that put the effort in so everyone can eat hear! Good attention to detail and he take pride in his work! This was the first time I have been to the jolly fryer and first impressions count, he is very welcoming and talks to everyone.. The negative I should have had haddock my own fault I asked for salt and vinegar and non was put on the wonderful lady must not have heard me Overall The food was piping hot even after a 10 minute drive to a less busy spot Mr jolly keep up the good customer service and the pride you take is brilliant A solid 9 out of 10 Will be returning and hopefully next time do a video food review for my channel"

"a couple of times. not the best eating and personal hard to catch to get any kind of quality service. very loud music cones on freezing and courteous inquiries to turn one down, and the other up have been answered with this, is as it always sticky tables, lip pen on glass, not mine. minutes for net that were not good quality. commentary of waitress are not very hungry, since it has collected the overcooked dried pasta and burned garlic bread. Try it again."

"We came here for Mother 's Day (Sunday lunch). Usually the food here is nice, and the service is usually so so. The owners should be embarrassed at how poor their staff were yesterday. Rude, surly, no knowledge of what they actually had in their hands, and generally 'can 't be bothered do not want to be here '. I suggest if the wait staff don 't want to be there, replace them. Chicken roast was nice although the Yorkshire puddings were raw. The Roast Beef was over cooked and dry All the veg was luke warm (although there was plenty of it). One dessert returned, not only was it shop bought (obvious), it was dry and inedible. Sent it back (it was however still on the bill). Half a teaspoon of ice cream with them. Had to ask for the table (after mains) to be cleared after a good 30 mins. Had to ask for dessert menus after waiting so long for someone to come back, had to ask for dessert spoons (was given one TEASPOON out for 5 people needing them). Those would had cheesecake ate it with the starter fork. One of the cheesecake was half missing compared to the others. It will be a long time before any of us return maybe then if the staff are replaced."
