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.

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.

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 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

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!!

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.

The food and the hospitality were great, the steak was to die for and I would have given it 5 stars, however having been shopping at Tesco and found out the bottle of wine we had was on sale at £8.50, to have been charged £38.00! was just too much over the top. It’s a shame as it has soured the experience.

Stayed here when visiting friends. As you will see from the photographs, it is very poorly kept. There was a very large spider when we arrived and the person who booked us in was less than friendly. Food was okay although no breakfast was provided. Would not recommend this place at all. Heating also went on the blink so we were brought an electric heater until they could fix the boiler. Money needs to be spent here urgently.
