The menu delivers classic comfort done with care, but the real standout is the Hash Benedict. Crispy, perfectly seasoned hash brown patties with silky poached eggs, spinach, and rich hollandaise that actually tastes fresh and balanced. It is indulgent without being heavy and executed with real skill. Portions are generous, ingredients are quality, and the service is friendly without rushing you out the door. Whether you are fueling up for the day or easing into a slow morning, Marples hits the mark every time. If you are searching for one of the best breakfast spots in Cleethorpes, start here. You will be back.

At half nine on a Saturday morning sat outside it can be simply beautiful. I've got some great memories of this place, I had brecky with all the lads on the morning of my wedding here, took the kids and Mrs loads of times as i love the view & liveliness. THE FOOD, I went for breakfast there last Saturday morning with my wife. The service was quick and we ordered one ordinary breakfast and one 'belly buster' breakfast. It all came to about £9.50 which wasn't bad as included coffee and toast. Got to say I'm afraid that the bacon and sausages were obviously cheap catering varieties Not the best really in a place were good quality Lincolnshire sausages can so easily be bought and cheap bacon is a disgrace. Also, the sauces all came in those horrible little sachets and were cheap varieties rather than Heinz and HP. Saying this the the meal wasn't bad by any means, it was just normal roadside truck stop fair when with a little bit more effort could have been superb quality. All in all better breakfasts can be bought close by at Browns on the Esplanade and Parkinsons in Kingsway but they don't have the lovely pavement tables next to the pier and beach, so if Il'ld probably still stick to my old favourite Photo link: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5226/5571162687_6d4fb2234e_m.jpg The view from the pavement cafe

For a greasy spoon type cafe the prices are not that low and the food isn't that good. The service is appalling. The last time I went in there I left without having eaten after over 30 minutes because our food hadn't arrived - the staff were far too busy talking to other customers. My daughter was hungry and was desperate for something hot to eat - I had promised her chips and beans in Cleethorpes before having a ride on the train - we ended up going elsewhere. Other occasions I have been there I've been the only person waiting for food and it's taken so long I sometimes wonder if they have even started cooking it. The bacon butties are extremely fatty. It gives the typical greasy spoon type cafe a bad name. I will not be giving them another try.

Lunchtime menu includes sandwiches, panini, salad boxes, baguettes, pies and some of the most amazing deserts you will ever see - the super chocolate cake is beyond belief. If you like chocolate this will be the desert that satisfies you - I don't think pure decadence comes anywhere close to describing this cake. It can get very busy at lunchtime and even with three staff doing take away food it can take a while - everything is fresh that day and prepared in front of you how you want it so it takes that little bit longer and I can tell you it's worth the wait. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The prices are very good for what is on offer. There are also a variety of hot and cold drinks available.

On my journey to Cleethorpes, this place was one of the stand out experiences…read more I was told on good authority, the chap, that this was the place to go for good fish and chips so we ate here on the Saturday evening. Having spent the day taking in all the tourist activities, by 5pm we were really ready for a good solid nosh. And it's a good job we queued when we did, as within about 10 minutes of our arrival, the queue was half way down the street - an accolade to how popular this place is. The décor is cute, with lots of wooden panels, cute booths, and a sort of tea room feel to the upstairs dining area. It's definitely busy, and popular, so if you're a tourist get in quick lest you wait an hour for a table. I believe they do take away, but sitting in is a must unless it's a spectacular day to sit by the sea. The menu is straightforward - the main affair, obviously, is fish and chips. These come in different sizes, but let it be known that the medium is enough to feed a small army. There is a 'smaller appetite menu', if you're afraid of the huge portions, and a pot of tea and bread and butter comes with the fish and chips. Lovely, properly British. I'm not sure if my palate isn't advanced enough to tell the difference between seaside fish and chips, and city fish and chips, but I wasn't sure I could tell. That's not to say it wasn't utterly delicious. The gravy was exquisite, the batter was perfect, and the fish itself was never-ending and scrumptious. And of course, the pot of tea was the perfect accompaniment, although you're able to grab a lager if you can stomach beer alongside filling f&c. I hardly ever trust a cuppa outside my own house, but this was a solid pot. The staff were lovely, hard working, and managed to stay welcoming and friendly in spite of the volume of customers! All in all, a must if you're in town.

HA! It takes a trip across the Atlantic in order to get a first review in this day and age…read more I was in England for a family visit. We stayed in Louth. It was cute and quiet but seriously lacking in decent fish and chips. I kept hearing murmurs that fish had to be from Grimsby in order to be good. Go to Grimsby. If it's not from Grimsby, it's not worth eating. Ok. So where was Grimsby? And isn't this in Cleethorpes, not Grimsby? First day we were here, the day we landed in Humberside, we were whisked away to Cleethorpes for a proper tuck in of fish and chips. I was a little tired and cranky having just sat on an airplane for too long. But hungry. At Steels, there are different sizes of fish to order. Small. Medium. And PIGGY. I had a medium. After all: medium what? It turns out, fish come in different sizes! Who knew? A small fish was a bit bigger than my hand. Still very decent in quantity and high in quality. Medium turned out to be much too big but I ordered it anyway. Twice. It was the length of my forearm and wide as the oval plate. The fish arrive atop a pile of delicious chips. Oh Chips. Oh Chips. And then gravy. Oh gosh. I have a bad bad habit. The fish was nicely fried and even covered in a thin, light batter. The great thing about fried fish is that the batter is tasty when served fresh. And when you take the leftovers home, you can peel off the batter. But let me get back to the gravy. I didn't develop this crush until the last week we were in England. Because gravy makes chips go down even easier. Typically, I can eat one-third a serving of small chips. But serve the chips with gravy? I can suck down that puppy faster than the Kardashians can sell the rights to their anal bleaching. Mushy peas were atomic green. Buttered bread. Something so simple can steal my heart like a Welsh Terrier on a killing spree. And yes, I took all the leftovers home, from the entire table, including the buttered bread. Service here was very very good. Cleethorpes is a seaside town, if you know what I mean. There are many competing fish and chips shops. But this is the one that you queue up for. This is the one where you queue up and wait and wait because it's really quite impressive what they can do with a fry-a-lator.
