Set up by Charles Lumley in 2015 (with a lot of help from friends and family!), message in a bottle was designed to bring something new and exciting to Cleethorpes. Taking inspiration from other bottle shops in bigger towns and cities, Charles wanted to create the area's only specialist beer shop. Previously there had been nowhere else in the area to buy world beers or local ales in bottles. 

​

The shop's manager (and Charles' brother in law) Ryan is now in charge of the day to running of the shop, but Charles can usually be found "helping out" at weekends. 

​

The shop has continued to evolve and now stocks local and craft ciders as well as premium locally produced spirits.

​

After several successful temporary events, we were granted a licence to allow us to host a pop up bar every weekend.

Being a proud member of the Cleethorpes community, we love every opportunity to interact with our customers so please call in or get in touch.
