The Whistle Stop in South Kesteven - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Nick and Ross are very accommodating, and really friendly staff. Good prices for a pub on a station platform. Great little bar, and good Guinness

A little gem. Great staff at the bar!

This place is fantastic when you’re waiting for your train. Great variety of drinks, surprisingly very good price for a railway station, been before and will certainly go again

£3.80 for a pint, in 2024 you struggle to find them prices!! Well worth a visit!

Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Much cheaper than going into the train station. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars, is I only grabbed 2 cans of coke. Hopefully at the end of my journey I will pop in for a beer

Lovely pint in comfortable surroundings.

Absolutely loved it. Its tiny but has a decent range of beers and is right on the platform. Perfect if you've got an hour to kill and nowhere to go.

Nice pub next to the train station. We were waiting for family to arrive and had wine and drinks while we waited.

After years of changing train at Grantham station with noting to note, I finally found the micro bar. Platform side refreshment, fine cask and friendly staff. Open later than usual, making my bank holiday.

Me and my son always have a half here before he gets the train. Always friendly staff. Nice place and good they have outside seating, front and back. However, question marks on the barrels as tables.....only criticism.

Always great to stop off and grab a beer before we catch the train, or to take with you...

Great little bar....we'll worth a visit even if you're not catching a train.

Great little micro pub. Friendly service, good quality beer. Quite atmosphere, very relaxing.

It was my first visit here. I loved it.

Quick stop while waiting for the rail replacement bus, very friendly and helpful barman. Would drop by again if I had time between trains.

Nice little pub which is accessible from both the platform and car park area of the station. There’s a decent enough range of drinks on tap and a full range of spirits. A small fire keeps the place warm in the winter and there’s plenty of seating given the size of the place, including some stools at the bar. There’s a selection of books on the window sill, some fun signs on the walls and even a couple of kids toys in the corner. Service is quick and friendly, prices decent given the location and even a selection of snacks and sandwiches. Great little bar.

I love dropping in here on the way home. Decent beer. Try the Whistle Stop which is brewed locally, cheers!

Wow. Didn't expect that🤩 Lovely place to have few drinks before or after journey. "Meet and greet" of your dreams

Cute cosy pub, great stop before heading for a day out!

Great train station pub. They provide plastic cups to enjoy on train or platform. Great prices too!

Lovely wee pub i train station very warm and friendly

Popped in while waiting for train lovely warm pub and the lad at bar very friendly its a tad expensive thou

When the trains are an absolute show and you are stuck in grantham this is an absolute life saver…

All stations should have such a pub serving well kept cask ale for tiresome transfers. Really a lovely place, no air about it and a good mix of regulars and transferring strangers like me. Highly recommend a visit.

Fabulous little bar with a super friendly team and great beer. Highly recommended for a visit.

Great place and my go to pub when visiting Grantham. Fast and friendly service; reasonably priced drinks; and a great atmosphere (reminds me of old style railway refreshment rooms). Another enjoyable, albeit brief, visit today 🍺

Dog friendly. Human friendly. Nice beer!

Excellent escape from the town centre, ideal to visit whilst waiting for your train, staff always welcoming and friendly, I highly recommend the place

Quiet time, when I visited, but proper beer, fair prices and an ideal oasis, whilst waiting for your train.

Really nice pub at the station. Really good range of ales, craft and lagers plus wine and spirits. I didn't eat but they also looked to do a nice selection of sandwiches, sausage rolls, pasties and soup. Staff were really friendly, prices were very reasonable and overall a nice atmosphere. Will definitely visit when passing through the station again.

Lovely friendly bar staff and good prices . First time visiting before travelling but will definitely be back

Best wee boozer ever ❤️ does a few hot snacks too.

This was a lovely place had some food and beer while waiting for my train.

Handy for trains, handy for beer needing passengers. Snacks when available

Always stop in for a pint on the way home, great selection and the Guinness is perfect everytime

Perfect to stop and wait for connecting train. Drinks available to suit all. Was kept well clean and seemingly well managed! Prices reasonable too.

Fantastic pub with warm friendly people. Looking forward to visiting this weekend!

Visit it when you're passing through

Nice little pit stop while waiting for the connection train's

Brilliant pub, had an hour to change at Grantham. What a find great beer, nice seating area out the back and the landlord was a nice fella(although somewhat hungover).

Cracking little pub at the station.

Great place , bar on the Grantham Station platform.

Lovely little pub great selection of drinks

Real ale, great lagers, excellent staff, cosy and charismatic, what more can a traveller or local want..

Great little spot with a good selection of beers, bar snacks (scampi fries are always an excellent indicator!) and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Wish I’d popped in sooner!!

Nice little pub in the train station. If you need to wait around for your train then treat yourself to a quick pint here. Good local ale.

Nice place to have a drink when waiting 4 the train friendly staff

Great atmos, fine selection of ales and welcoming staff. Connections at Grantham fly by too quickly!

Nice cosy pub.friendly staff.great singers aswell.really like it

Great little bar on Grantham Station.

Lovely little pub. Great place to go while waiting for a train

What a fantastic little pub, on the station platform you can see all the east coast trains go by while having a lovely pint how cool is that. Landlords were out of this world, with trivia questions get the question right in 10 seconds and your pint is half price. Don't let the micro in the name put you off, seating inside and out try it next time you are at Grantham train station

What a diamond of a bar offering refreshments to weary travellers ,good selection of beers (even vegan) at surprisingly cheap prices ,but the main thing is the welcoming atmosphere ,I'd miss a train for this one 😉

Brilliant bar at the station. Very friendly with great beer.

Wonderful new little station tap. Excellent beer and a very friendly welcome.

Very good, guiness, friendly staff

Always loved popping in for a quick pint or two between trains every fortnight and never had a bad word to say, until today ! Walked in and no response from the bar staff because he had his face in his phone, order my usual pint and was told there was a £5 minimum for using card payments ( ridiculous ) I use my phone for all my payments so I couldn’t pop to the cash machine as instructed, then I was asked to make up the £5 by buying crisps, nuts or even a pastie. I didn’t want crisps, nuts or a pastie, just a nice pint before my next train. Putting a limit on card payments is business suicide, it’s wrong and extremely embarrassing for the customers who just want to enjoy a nice pint in a lovely venue without being held to ransom over a ridiculous £5 card limit, i walked out as I had no other means of payment but card and was most certainly not being told I have to spend £5 when I shouldn’t have to.

Cracking little bar with good ales

Lovely cosy place to have a drink whether waiting for your train or just passing by. Friendly staff, very welcoming, plus it had a nice variety of drinks on offer.

Lovely place, very friendly staff.

Super friendly staff in a peaceful environment, that is dog friendly and serves a good food pint. The only downside is the long walk to the toilets.

Nice little pub, friendly staff. Pop in if you're waiting for your next train

Good beer, nice decor, polite service. Great for a pre-train pint.

Great little spot at Grantham Train station. Lovely cozy interior, good beers and thoroughly decent staff. Certainly q port in the storm of a long journey

Great little pub, with great selection of beers!

Superb little pub on the station serving a variety of ales. Friendly knowledgeable barman. Great outside seating area right on the platform, ideal to take your pint straight onto the London.

For such a small space the pub has a decent selection of on-tap drinks. Male staff friendly and professional, the female staff member is obnoxious with no understanding of boundaries.

Decent little on station boozer. Barman knowledgeable about the ale he sells
