   We love going to The Kingsway. It’s a special treat. Lovely relaxing lounge. Polite staff. Excellent food with a good choice. Marked down a couple of stars this time however. Service a little slower than usual( & it wasn’t busy) . Had to send my pudding back as toffee sauce too thick and set on plate but this was soon rectified so that was good . There was however a private function in the room off the lounge and they were extremely loud so after our meal, the lounge wasn’t as relaxing as usual. It would have been better had the room been closed off to reduce the noise. Otherwise a great night. We will definitely go again.

   My wife and I visit the Kingsway every year for our wedding anniversary 12th Dec and on this occasion we brought along our son and daughter in law. As usual, the ambience was excellent and the service faultless. We all thoroughly enjoyed our evening meals, let me make that quite clear. However, 24 hours later I realised my stomach was beginning to churn - in fact I had not felt 100% since midday. Then several emergency trips to the bathroom ensued overnight and throughout the following day, the last dash being at 16:10 on Saturday. The other three had no issues. The only different food I had was the chicken pate and brussels and I was not too certain of the latter when I ate them. It was disappointing after such a pleasant evening but these things happen.

   Enjoyed the experience once again. Certainly value for money. Crisp white tablecloths, attentive waiting staff, warm and bright surroundings. One disappointment was the turkey. This was pre formed into a 'loaf' and had a bland taste. I had expected slices of breast meat and more taste. However, this will not stop me from visiting The Kingsway again as the rest of the three course meal was excellent.

   Excellent meal in a nice restaurant overlooking Cleethorpes promenade. Comfortable lounge to relax and enjoy coffee and chat afterwards. Only negative, when trying to book a table for any one of various dates. We were told by the restaurant that there was no availability, also next to no availability on Open Table. Yet the restaurant was nearly empty during our visit. What's going on?

   Very mediocre food for the Kingsway. Turkey dinner ok but swimming in salty thin gravy. Carrots overcooked, some sprouts too hard to cut. Had this meal been served in a pub it would have been ok but in the Kingsway expectation was higher, mentioned our disappointment to staff who were going to “mention it to the chef”

   Most enjoyable lunch for a long time, welcomed on arrival and invited to comfy seats to relax , enjoy a drink and look at the menu With no rush we were invited to our table by polite staff member Enjoyed three courses of excellent food and high standard of service, polite but not intrusive. Good value for the quality of food, surroundings and service

   The meal and service were excellent. The hotel was decorated to an amazing standard. We weren't rushed at all and were shown to the lounge to enjoy our coffees. the only downside was when it came to pap and we had to go back into the restaurant which I felt a bit intrusive to those still dining. It would be much better to pay at the reception away from people eating.
