Yarborough Hotel (JD Wetherspoon), Grimsby

Wetherspoons hotel place with rooms to the front and rear. Decent selection of ales - one at 6.6% ABV which I can't remember the name of!

I can report that the Yarborough is once again a functioning hotel because I stayed there on a recent Wednesday night. The room was comfortable and quiet, but when making my booking I was warned that it can be very noisy on Tuesdays and at the weekend. At the front of the pub is some seating and then some steps lead up to the U-shaped front bar. Standard and premium keg is available and I noted that the twelve hand pumps were drawing Dark Star Hophead, Grafton Caramel Stout, Oakham JHB, Goffs Black Knight (x2), Pelham I Tried So Hard, Oliver Phillips Holy Roller, Kelham Island Pale Rider (x2) Abbot Ale, Ruddles and Sharps Doom Bar. Seating runs up the right-hand side of the pub before it reaches a small rear L-shaped bar and the hotel reception. This back bar supports another six hand pumps that were drawing Ruddles, Jaipur, Abbot Ale, Sharps Doom Bar, Kelham Island Pale Rider and Lacons Affinity. In the left rear of the pub is a separate room that is more of a dining area for hotel guests. I had a £5.35 large breakfast which is the best I’ve had at a JDW, and I have eaten my fair share! In my opinion this is the best pub in Grimsby town centre, which is amazing to say as I’m not normally a Wetherspoons fan.
