The Side by Side Cleethorpes

You're walking down Alexandra Road towards the beach when you spot this place—it's the kind of bar that makes you realise Cleethorpes has got more going on than you'd assumed. Inside, it's got that buzzy, confident energy of somewhere run by people who actually care about what goes in a glass. The cocktails aren't gimmicky or oversweetened; they're executed with real precision. It's become the sort of spot where locals genuinely want to spend an evening, whether you're after a proper Negroni or something seasonal and thoughtful. The fact it's pulling 4.5 stars across 144 reviews tells you it's hitting the mark consistently.
