Willy's Puband Brewery

Willy's is a free house on High Cliff Road in Cleethorpes, overlooking the beach and the mouth of the Humber. The building has changed use several times over the years: it operated as the Old Barn Teahouse, then a chandlery, before opening as a wine bar in the early 1980s under the Parkinson family, who still hold the freehold. Willy's Original, a house beer, is brewed on site in a small plant visible from the bar, alongside a changing list of guest ales and real ciders such as Moles Black Rat. Food service runs at lunchtime every day and again in the evening, with a supper club held on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Camping pitches at the adjoining Meridian Park give visitors somewhere to stay within walking distance. The pub is not tied to any pub company, brewery group or managed chain, and sits within Meridian Point, a stretch of independent food, drink and craft units near the boating lake.
