The Balloon Bar to reopen in Engine Yard at Belvoir Castle near Grantham

A bar is re-opening its doors on Friday.

The Balloon Bar, based in Belvoir Castle’s Engine Yard near Grantham, reopens on Friday (February 7) with a new tapas and cocktail menu.

The reopening will also see a new management team take on the business, with an additional chef and more staff in the kitchen.

Manager Luke Ball said: “It’s really exciting to be reopening, it’s such a lovely space.

“This Friday is about getting all the team involved and making the cocktails.

“We are really looking forward to next week for Valentines.

“The Balloon Bar is a brilliant addition to Belvoir’s retail village and with its cosy vibe and extraordinary decor, it’s a truly one of a kind offering for the local area.

“We really want to connect with the locals around Belvoir Castle and surrounding villages, so we can generate a year-round trade.”

New dishes will feature barbecue pulled brisket tacos, chicken croquette, truffle mayonnaise, and red pepper arancini aioli and teriyaki salmon skewers.

A new cocktail menu will also include a Belvoir negroni, espresso martini, margarita, as well as exclusive drinks created by the bar’s own mixologist.

The bar is located on the ground floor of the Belvoir Bistro restaurant and cafe.

It first opened in 2019 in the Engine Yard, which also features the Belvoir Farm Shop, bistro and other independent shops.
