With time for a couple of bonus pubs in Melton, the Grapes was my penultimate port of call in the town. It overlooks the Market Place, which was quiet late at night, but had certainly sprung to life when I returned on Tuesday morning (market day).
I wasn't expecting much, but the locals and staff were fairly friendly and down to earth. Eagle IPA & Hancock's HB were the 2 real ales.

Called in as we had missed our bus and wanted to get in the warm. Friendly pub with sport on TV. 2 real ales on and they were at an unbelievable low price of around £1.70 a pint. They were Broughton Willacade and Grays Traditional Mild and both in really good condition. The mild one of the best I've had in a while.

Fairly non descript this one, as a visitor to the town. Two ales on handpump Wells Eagle and Pedigree. Also was quite stuffy inside. Got a good old look at when asking what ales they had on. You can keep it for the locals thanks.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Grapes
Small pub on the Market Place, still having an old Pubmaster sign. Cheaply refurbished inside, but the lighter shade of wood used helps to make up for the lack of natural light inside. Two handpumps slightly hidden away on the far side of the bar, with the clips needing to face the 'wrong' way in order to be seen, offering Wells Eagle IPA and Hydes (£1.89, but not in the greatest condition which was a slight surprise given the recent Cask Marque certificate that was on display - perhaps I was just unlucky).
