During a Christmas chat reminiscing about former watering holes in the town a bar came up which I can remember going in a couple of times but no one could remember the name, in fact only a couple of people could even remember it being there....
Can anyone help...
It was on the ground floor of Victoria Mills, (Victoria Mills not Haven Mill) it had a red phone box inside and it used to have a live music on frequently. I know it was only there for a few years, and I guess around 86/87 era.
Driving me mad....have done a few Google searches but nothing coming up so far.

I haven’t lived in Grimsby since I was 18. Is the Tivoli Tavern still there? Harvest Moon in Waltham? The Lincoln Castle?

I think it was called The Warehouse or something similar. I went there several times and it was popular at the time.

TT still exists & open. Harvest Moon is a co-op. Lincoln Castle scrapped around 2010?

To be fair, the Harvest ceased to be a pub once it became one of those ember Inn places…more atmosphere on the moon than those gaffs. Like a lot of sam smiths pubs, cheap but at the cost of a vibe or atmosphere… If people have Facebook the Grimsby and Cleethorpes history club often post stuff about local boozers…they shared an image of the Gloucester the other day…would love a place like that to be my local…

Name doesn't ring a big bell with me...but better than anything I can come up with on my own. One other old place that came to mind just now ...Russell's Wine Bar in Cleethorpes High St...as well as the Cross Keys on the High St too but never went in there as demolished before I was old enough

Former favourite pub for me was the Lifeboat. My first regular pub when I was old enough to drink.
Spent many an hour playing pool in the chart room with Heroes (Bowie) etc. blasting out on the Jukebox.

The Clee Park near Ramsdens. Was the closest pub to where I used to work in the early '80's. Used to have a FULL sized snooker table in the bar so used to go there for a frame or two every now and then.
