Great place to visit it's a must

Enjoyed a couple of beers here pre gig at The Yardbirds. Staff are friendly and helpful, disappointed that they no longer did food and their website hadn't been updated. With all the craft beer available at other bars in town, could maybe think of stocking a few more. However, my kind of music and a different vibe with regard to surroundings.

It was a lovely sunny day outside the boat and they played 'Fit for an Autopsy'. Inappropriate in my opinion. We and others left.

One of my favorite places... Relaxed atmosphere friendly staff, friendly people, and loads of character. I've been going to the barge for more years than I care to admit. You will struggle to find pubs better than this anywhere, let alone in Grimsby.

I've been meaning to pop on the Barge and try their food, rather than just drinking all the time .., and with some friends visiting from Slough recently, I had the perfect opportunity. We plumped for the Sunday lunch and how lucky were we. Six Roast beef dinners were ordered and six empty plates were left. The beef was cooked to perfection, the vegetables were fresh and everybody commented on what a fantastic meal it was. Needless to say, every single plate was clean and there were six very happy chaps! The staff were superb as usual and a very big thank you to Roy for working his magic in the kitchen. If you have not tried the food in the Barge, I suggest you get yourselves in there and try the food. There is something for everyone and and I guarantee, you will not be disappointed. 10/10 and I will be back again - thank you!

As always a fantastic meal. Service was a tad slower than usual due to the half off deal the government is running but you can't really hold that against them being as it's inevitable.

Looks and feels nice. Drinks are fine. Had the spicy cajun chicken, but sadly it was rubbish. The chicken breast was so overcooked it was virtually a biscuit. I very politely offered them an opportunity to do something about it, but they declined. That is the reason that this review is being written actually. This place is not a place to eat unless you are legless

Foods standard, not too pricey. Drinks are quite good and come cheaply. Entertainment and music are good. Rats are everywhere though, saw multiple ones inside and out of the place. The smell is also a little overpowering.

The Barge is an old estuarine workhorse that's been converted into a pub and restaurant and it's been moored at the Riverhead in Grimsby for quite some time. It's a good clean and well lit place,which is warm and has a old fashioned cosy feel and atmosphere with music playing in the background.It's a nicely appointed place with both history and the novelty of being afloat going for it,making it a popular choice with both the locals and visitors. It has a reasonably good range of draught beer, wine and spirits on offer. The menu is gastro pub in style and includes fish, steaks and burgers and roast dinner's on Sundays amongst other things there's also a children's menu and a special's board.It has table service provided by friendly staff. The layout is that of an old style pub with fixed seating around the edges with tressel style tables and stools,there's also some seating outside on the Quayside. It has it's own restrooms. It's not able to accommodate wheelchair users unfortunately on the vessel its self however the outdoor tables could easily accept a wheelchair.There's a multi storey car park opposite. Payment by credit cards are acceptable here. They have a 5***** food hygiene rating. Food review Jan 2019. I chose the Haddock, chips and garden peas and a pot of tea. My meal arrived fairly quickly and comprised of a reasonable portion of Hand cut chips and peas, the fillet of haddock was a reasonable size,I found that the batter was quite heavy and under cooked in parts and a bit oily,the fish itself wasn't that great either, it was firm and white in colour but lacked the flavour of a really good piece of Haddock, the tea was good though.The price of £11.25 I felt was a little steep considering the quality and size of fish, however the portion sizes were quite good here. I didn't find it a remarkable meal but not a bad one either. I've had the steaks recommended to me maybe I'll try one of these the next time I decide to walk the plank.😁

Always come here when we are in Grimsby. Good food at a good price. Would have been 5 stars but fir the fact that they have suddenly started smothering chips in so much salt that they must have their own salt mine that they are really desperate to empty

A Hidden Gem: The Old Lloyds Arms is Everything a Pub Should Be The Old Lloyds Arms in Grimsby is a true gem that embodies everything a pub should be. Located right on Victoria Street in the town centre, it’s easy to walk by without a second glance, but that would be a mistake. Step inside, and you’ll find a pub that’s brimming with character, warmth, and a sense of community that’s all too rare these days. At the heart of The Old Lloyds Arms is its incredible landlady, Toni, who has been the beating heart of this pub for over 30 years. Toni doesn’t just manage from behind the scenes; she’s right there in the thick of it, serving behind the bar, chatting with patrons, and making sure everyone feels at home. It’s this personal touch that makes such a difference—you’re not just another customer here; you’re part of the family. The pub itself has a unique vibe, with music that leans on the heavier side but throws in a delightful mix of genres to keep everyone on their toes. Where else can you hear a metal anthem followed by ‘Barbie Girl’ or the Pokémon theme? It’s a soundtrack that reflects the eclectic, inclusive nature of the place. What truly sets The Old Lloyds Arms apart, though, is its clientele. All walks of life come through these doors, creating a melting pot of personalities and stories. Whether you’re there for a quiet drink, the regular quiz nights, belting out your favorite tunes during karaoke, or catching a live band, there’s something for everyone. The regulars are some of the friendliest you’ll ever meet, making it impossible not to feel welcome. If you’re in Grimsby and looking for a pub that’s the real deal, look no further than The Old Lloyds Arms. It’s a place where the spirit of the traditional British pub is alive and well—a community hub that’s as unpretentious as it is unforgettable. Don’t just walk by; step inside, stay awhile, and discover what makes this place so special.
