What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Blundell Park is lauded as a great, characterful, old-fashioned football league ground with a passionate atmosphere and surprisingly good food. Visitors appreciate the friendly stewarding and community feel, though some note it can get very cold. A few seating areas offer restricted views.
"Great ground for the level that Grimsby are at. As a premier league club supporter, its hard to give praise without sounding condescending. But the club is in the middle of its community and as an away fan I felt they looked after us with friendly stewarding, a decent bar and the food was better than at a lot of Premier League grounds! Won't bang on about the result (The less said, the better!) But congratulations and well deserved. Honourable mention to the dirty fries for £7.50. Absolutely amazing!"

"A good old fashioned football league ground with lots of character.
I visited with my two sons (6 and 10) over Easter for the Swindon fixture.
Stewards and staff were really helpful and efficient in and around the ground.
Only minor grumble, ordered tickets for the mainstand for 3 seats together, avoid seat N88 if you can. It's a restricted view of not just one but both goals! (See photos). Luckily there was a group of seats vacant closer to the away end so upped and moved without any problems for a better view!"

"Great stadium, good beer outlets, friendly locals, but really cold! I mean, really cold! It was a fun ground to go to, but take a hat."
