The Blue Pig in South Kesteven

Love this place, we usually visit weekends, afternoon/early evening. Friendly atmosphere. Traditional old English boozer in the historic area of the town, with real fires in the winter. Sports on the telly but not "in your face", there's plenty of nooks and crannies for chatting with mates. Usually about 3 real ales to choose from, plus the expected lagers etc.

Cheap as chips, know what they're doing with the ale, crisps and pint of Black Sheep £4:so how can't other boozers not manage this? Very quaint old worlde inside, highly recommended dogs allowed, and in reach of tourist spots, good mix of people, low lighting so nice for someone like me with visual excitation issues.

Called for a couple of drinks and it was lovely. The oldest pub in Grantham and the cheapest. Staff were brilliant and atmosphere good , chatted to loads of people

UPDATE:: Under the old Land lady I did give this pub a 2 star. However since it’s one owners have been in charge the pub has got substantially better. The Guinness is the best in town in my opinion, the toilets have been re done and are a lot more hygienic. Staff are more friendly and it’s just overall a much better pub. Prices are really good as well, making it a much more enjoyable pint. Cheers.

Been going to this pub for over 15 years and I will never stop. Warm atmosphere, cheap drinks, great pub quiz. Everything you want from a traditional pub. The pig is my benchmark!

We didn't eat there as we just dropped in for a drink. It seemed a nice old fashioned pub with friendly staff.

One of the better pubs in the town. The real ale was well kept and served well although the choice was limited. Attractive pub inside and out.

My gosh...two pints for under £6.oo..My husband told landlady she had made a mistake but she said it was correct..ended up having another..sporty pub with sky on tvs..really worth a visit if in the area.

Went there for a couple of drinks, could easily have stayed much longer! Lovely place with a great atmosphere! Drinks are very cheap and very nice!

Brilliant pub very friendly staff. Excellent service. Staff and customers are very welcoming to new faces

Fantastic hidden gem in Grantham

Old school pub ,not many left, great staff,beer and a friendly atmosphere, highly recommended 🙂🍺🍺🍺

Fabulous service. Great selection of drinks and brilliant atmosphere.

I will never set foot in this pub again! Apart from the staff throwing my drink away, as I’d gone to the toilet - they were so incredibly rude, when asked about my gin I’d not long purchased! One of the barmaids is renowned for being the most miserable looking woman behind a bar. I went tonight and saw it for myself. Never smiled all night! Very unwelcoming and unprofessional. I would advise to avoid and find a much better atmosphere in many of Granrhama other public houses!

Great pub, nice and cosy, lovely open fire

Always a good atmosphere. Always good beers on tap

Friendly pub with good range of beers all in an old tudor building

I meet with friends nearly every Wednesday afternoon we have a laugh and remember bygone days the blue pig still a great pub the young staff are lovely we have not eaten there yet but will try in the future . Christine wood

Friendly crowd and very polite staff

Stopped for a couple pints with wife

Very friendly, great feel about the old historic building.

Good pub with a good selection of ale

Dropped in with friends for a drink. Friendly and comfortable. Will go again.

The pub is lovely. Very lively and busy. Enjoyed it very much.

Old worldy pub with a cosy interior and friendly staff with quality beers

One of granthams oldest pubs, still cheaper than most

Nice old fashioned English pub with a good range of beer and cider. Warm and welcoming. Being from Spain I was pleasantly surprised to see CruzCampo on tap. Shame it was bloody awful! Guinness was good though

Really friendly atmosphere, food was lovely, pretty quiet but midweek so not really surprising. Would happily eat there again 🙏😘

Great old pub with loads of character and quite a few characters too. Really good selection of beers at a very reasonable price. If it’s value your looking for you would struggle to find anywhere in the area as competitive. Loverly oak beams in one of the oldest buildings in Grantham. Located really close to st Wulfrums church so ideal if your visiting the church for an event. I visited in the summer and got to use the beer garden on a glorious sunny day. The outdoor furniture looked almost brand new and it was spotless. I hear they have sky sports TV and a pool table now so that’s another reason to go back. The staff were so polite and really looked after us. We didn’t wait long at all to get served. Il definitely be going back in the winter when they get the log fires burning. I can only imagine it being super cosy in such a nice old building. On my final note I’d like to recommend you try the old rosy cider they have. It’s absolutely delicious but be careful of how many you have because it can creep up on you. Many thanks to the blue pig team for making us feel so welcome

Decent Little pub. Had a couple of drinks there tonight and there was a great atmosphere for a Wednesday night! Staff were friendly.

Went in Monday for the first time since 2001 it hasnt changed one bit great little pub with a friendly atmosphere for all age groups

Lovely building and interior which was ruined by a member of staff swearing loudly and repeatedly from behind the bar. Some might find this acceptable but many don’t. Will not be returning.

Disgusting foul mouthed barmaid who loves the F word and doesn't hold back on using it. How is this possibly a nice pub. Hopefully they will go bust, quickly!!!! She has a mouth like a sewer. Not fit to hold a license.

Its a friendly little place and nice 2 have a drink and a chat with friends

Lovely place to enjoy a beer and a chat with the locals... I couldn't find a stout beer (except Guinness), however the conversations flowed as smooth as beer 😊

My husband re visited this pub after 50 years, the pub of his youth ! Beer was cheap but not as cheap as the 70s

Great place for a drink. Staff friendly. They do a quiz as well so might give that a bash another day. Definitely recommend

Looked nicer outside than inside. I guess it just wasn't for us, I'm afraid.

Best pint of Cider in Grantham...

Nice pub, good atmosphere. Only popped in for a quick meeting.

Atmospheric pub. Great range of beers and lagers

Good beer and nice atmosphere. The renovation work inside has made a great difference and nice to be using tables that aren't sticky anymore!

Decent choice of drinks and polite, sociable staff. Interesting building as well for people visiting the town

It's a proper pub with well kept real ale. You can sit and talk. Lovely.

Just the place to quench a thirsty bell ringer!

Nice little pub very old loads of character well stocked

An old fashioned pub with friendly staff for a nice pint

Great food and drink here. Been a couple of times now.

Very welcome place to be friendly staff good beers and beer prices you can't go Rong

Always a happy place to enjoy your beer !

Staff polite, friendly and great service. Even got our last round brought to table. Lovely interior of pub, old school drinks and prices reasonable. Only didn't give 5 star as I feel the toilets need renovating.

Well this is deff not a place to bring your family. It a bit rough. Beer is decent but there is a lot of idiots around

A good pub that serves real ales, a multi-tude of other drinks,and decent food .

Lovely place to have a drink abit like a old fashion pub. Staff friendly.

Nice old building, plenty of history, had a few people in, nice selection of beers, bar staff polite and friendly..

A very night with excellent beer

Vibrant street corner local with a good range of cask ales

Great food and tasty every time,very friendly staff with great beers,lovely Chef.great time as usual

Nice friendly pub, warm staff and cold beers.

Nice pub with a good selection of beers and ales on draft.

Nice friendly pub nice beer nice food

Love this place! A real old pub, beautiful building, good selection of real ales, friendly, helpful staff, great music but not too intrusive.

Decent beer at a good price. Couple of outside areas with covering. Good service and friendly staff

A rare olde world pub,near the Angel and Royal hotel. A must for tourists stupid enough to come to Grantham

a traditional pub with a good atmosphere

Staff unfriendly even the landlady. People were acting like kids screaming no one said anything to them or even asked them to sit down, could talk to anyone at your table for noise bar staff constantly trying to get you to buy more drinks not letting you enjoy a drink

Great food and fantastic atmosphere.

I was here for the quiz night. A fantastic night out quiz and more a fun night.Will be returning.

Lovely pub great service and the new beer garden Is excellent 👌

Stopped in here last Friday as I awaited for my friends from London coming up on the train Only had a pint of fosters ..walked through the door Immediately got told by staff to sign in for check and trace which was great Lady immediately come up and took my order which was just a pint of fosters Was quite busy and seemed very friendly place Staff seemed nice and friendly and welcoming Would definitely return for another pint 👍

Verbally assaulted by a drunk who was, tbf, swiftly ejected by the Landlady. It used to be a nice old pub no longer. Could still be a great pub but needs to attract a new client base. Wetherspoons is now the "best" pub in Grantham!!

Great pub,excellent friendly service and quality beer and ciders. Nice beer garden at the back. Will definitely return.

Good for a nice cold beer oi oi

Good food good company. Proper pub with juke box and darts

This is a lovely old pub which is very well run and friendly. There is a great quiz on Wednesday nights with a large following too.

An 18 year old girl coming into the blue pig to enjoy an evening with friends and as i walk in the landlord squares up to me saying i’m lying about the amount of people i was meeting, when i was only with 2 other people. She comes right into my face and tells me to “f*** off”. This is disgraceful behaviour and i am extremely offended.

Dog friendly pub with cask beers

Nice pub, great beers, great staff. Do yourself a favour and call in.

Nice pub, even better with fireplace on the go, nice n cosy🤗🤗🤗🤗

Friendly staff and patrons, good beers.

Currently, as a frequent visitor to Grantham I find this to be the best go to Pub in the Town. Even in work clothes. Bar staff are lovely and hardworking. The beer is well kept and the Pub is complying with Covid restrictions really well. A proper well kept Pub to visit.

Great selection of alcohol, nice beer garden, it’s a damn shame the Land Lady is a grumpy old Trollope will serve you then take away your water because they “don’t give away drinks”. What was the point in serving me it then? I actually liked the place.

Shame about the place, been before and its been alright. Went after lock down, found a seat in a corner table and everything fine. Couple of hours later needed the loo and after returning table had been taken by a couple which was fair enough. I didn't want to take the table next to it as it was for 6 people and thought that be inconsiderate so looked in the other part of the pub. Then a women from the bar started having a go at me for walking around, I told her that my table I had been taken then the (who I think was either the landlady or manager) had a go at me for going to the loo and told me to take the table with 6 seat... Frankly RUDE and will not bother coming to The Blue Pig again.

While the six nations is on beer ,lager and Guinness are cheaper than usual

Been visiting Grantham lots recently. After visiting all the pubs, I think this is the best. Service at the bar very good smiles, conversation. Offered to go make me a sandwich when they had run out of the one I wanted!. The locals have got to recognise me and they are funny and chatty. The place has loads of architectural features. Pretty much a perfect pub for me.

Good selection of real ale and interesting old building

Great beers, very friendly staff, open fire when cold, free WiFi, tasty snacks, pork pies and 50p off the majority of their own ales Fridays 5 to 8 pm. What's not to like 👍😀.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff

Like the food and relaxed atmosphere

Good old style pub where dogs are allowed & darts is still played, fair pub grub but must say only been for a Sunday Roast extra size, i smoke & there is a good sized covered area outside too.

Really nice friendly pub, great beers will definitely be back.

Nice atmosphere and helpful bar-staff. Good.

Very nice and friendly beers very good real ale

Lovely meal, given the price and staff were helpful. However, it was far too noisy which shortened the time we would have spent in there.

Nice historic pub with a good choice of beer.
