Bradgate Arms in Charnwood

Wonderful food and service everytime.

I mainly go to this pub for drinks and the quiz, not food, though plenty of people do. Staff are really friendly, good service, good range of drinks. The pub layout is very nice and the garden is great in the summer. The weekly quiz is great as well, I've done quite a few in Leicester and this is by far one of the better ones.

Came for lunch and some drinks with my family, the customer service was outstanding , full table service was offered which isnt in most pubs which was amazing! Food was great and service was very quick !!

Came for Lunch and some drinks with my family, the customer service was out standing, full table service which isn’t offered much in pubs which was amazing! Food was great and service was very quick!

Very friendly Staff , food was top notch will go again one day. Not like The Badgers Set, asked for a Portion of Chips before going to Park View Stables got 9 in a small Cup and 1 of them I dropped on the floor. Never again.

Excellent time with great food, and Molly was very helpful. Would highly recommend this venue Nice village pub.......

Molly was fantastic with the way she dealt with me. Cant wait to go again had a fantastic time with family and friends thanks to molly

Great menu selection and always a lovely welcome

Brilliant night out with the family, food was perfect aswell as the atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Went out for a meal with family, the food is delicious (especially the burgers) . Staff there are so lovely and welcoming. One of the nicest pubs I’ve been too!

We visited this evening as a family of 10 for a meal. Had a lovely evening, compliments to the Chef as all our meals were fantastic, came out all together. Had great service from waiter Alex and Batman Matt. Really recommend a visit to this pub

Unfortunately this was the worst sunday dinner weve ever had, the beef was grey, the roasts are sloppy, the whole meal was either reheated or microwaved, the mash was literally a tablespoons worth on each plate, when we asked for more mash for the children, they charged us £2.75 for a portoin of mash x 2, which was then a dessert bowl full each,Why it wasnt put on as the meal portoin originally is questionable. Yes we did tell the waitress, who just apologised with no offer. Unfortunately wouldnt use again or recommend

Unfortunately the food was Unrateable, the chicken my wife had was so overcooked it couldn't be eaten. The doner kebab meat was not fresh in fact it looked DAYS old. However the wine went down well.

Don’t have the steak! It is dryer than an old leather boot! Not cooked correctly, chips were decent but the steak ruined it. At least the drinks were nice.

Very ggod food and excellent service

Great atmosphere and friendly staff, good food and drink prices.

First time here.... friendly staff and nice food.... worth a visit

Pub decor is an eyesore, the colours don't match, it felt like one of those Kitchen Nightmares places. We were seated promptly after asking for a table, we did not reserve a table on this occasion, and drinks arrived soon after. It was at this point we ordered food, starters and mains. After an approximate 40 minute wait in a quiet restaurant, our starters arrived, the mushrooms watery, but the Mac and cheese was delicious in all fairness. After our starters we ordered one more round of drinks, again, arriving promptly. Our mains then arrived soon after, a little longer wait than expected but nothing too extensive. My steak was overly fatty, I personally don't mind that too much but someone else wouldn't have touched it, my wife enjoyed her salad but left most of it because she was put off by her starter. I would maybe return for a drink but not for food.

Friendly staff, great choice of drinks. Fair prices. Nice interior and good beer garden. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend

Booked for a Sunday lunch as advertised but no Sunday lunch was available ..only food off the normal menu 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Otherwise lunch in the week when we went was good.

First time I’ve been there great food friendly staff and good prices

Good service, food was excellent, lovely place

This was the third time we had visited for lunch on a Saturday .The service is good and the food is lovely. I have to give special mention to the fish and chips, I cannot remember having a better one any where. Perfect crispy batter , nice juicy fish and chips that I could go on about all day…I should try a different dish but when it’s this good it is difficult….

Great friendly service , nothing too much trouble & very good range of meals. Enjoyed the 8oz gammon

Went for a large family meal, was asked to do pre order, which was a brilliant idea, everything was served hot and on time, amazing food, compliments to the Chef! Service was fantastic from both bar staff and waiting staff, always a lovely atmosphere here .. highly recommend it.

Went for a, family birthday meal, table of 13, got all our pre-order spot on, food was lovely, service was fab, great atmosphere, friendly staff, such a lovely pub, seating outside on a well kept garden with a little park for children, definitely worth visit. Fantastic evening thank you all

Didn't have the meal I went for, mixed grill, so disappointed to start with. Not many customers and poor atmosphere. Left feeling underwhelmed, particularly as on a previous visit, we were all quite satisfied.

We went for a big family reunion. We were made to feel very welcome by Katlin and her team. Food was served hot to all guests , which was very impressive considering the numbers involved. Only slight issue were the steaks which were a little over cooked. Good play area out the back for the children. All in all a very good impression was made. Thank you

A lovely meal with friends in pleasant surroundings.

Went on a Thursday evening (Steak Night) we all enjoyed the meal which was as good a steak as you could expect to get. Definitely be returning, maybe curry night next time.

Tuesday Jazz session Always great! Lovely food, fantastic players and great atmosphere

Enjoyed a super meal on the Tuesday. Great atmosphere. Thanks

Curry and a pint… We enjoyed our meal thanks!

Friendly welcome. Pub felt warm and nice decor on arrival. A good 1st impression. We booked a large table of 10 at short notice and they were happy to accommodate us. Food was enjoyed by us all. Not 1 complaint on our table. It was great value too. We brought a birthday cake with us and the lovely staff were happy to bring that out with candles lit which was much appreciated.

Not allowing walk ins apparently due to the heat. I work in hospitality and appreciate the weather, staff shortages, labour costs etc however wasn’t expecting to be turned away when quite.

Came on a sunny Tuesday evening, arrived and told that they aren’t doing food for Walkins despite only a handful of people in, too hot apparently. Wanted an ice cream, couldn’t even manage that. I’ll stick to the badgers sett.

The best mixed grill ive had in ages well done thank you for such great food

Friendly staff, very welcoming. Food was lovely and well presented. Good value for money. Excellent experience. Will visit again soon. Thank you.

Great food Great drinks Great prices Great staff Great nite out , highly recommended

The Bradgate Arms is a lovely place to eat and drink. Pet friendly too, 'with responsible owners'..! Haha

Had a fantastic cowboy burger not a fan of burgers very rarely have one but this was probably the best one ever had the lady cleaning up after meal I side preferred chips in stead of French Frys told just ask and will get chips here's to next time a great all round place

Great boozer ,food excellent !!

Awful will never use this pub again. I’m a type 2 diabetic and a vegetarian. I have to be careful what I eat. I asked to alter something on the menu which was really easy and they weren’t busy - I was told point blank I couldn’t alter anything on the menu! All I wanted was a cheese baguette lol! Instead I had to order veggie chilli. I have spent the last two hours on the toilet. The portion was also tiny for £8.95! One member of staff was rude. Please note their response to my review isn’t correct. They did have cheddar cheese because it was being served on other items on the menu. I also never said the portion I received was good. Furthermore I’m spending a second day ill after my visit.

Food very good. Really enjoy Quiz Night. Wonderful staff. The management are huge supporters of local charities and community events

Great place to eat and the quiz every Tuesday is always good fun.

What a lovely Sunday out we have had. Myself and hubby took the kids out for a nice treat in the countryside and we are so glad we chose The Bradgate Arms. The welcome was wonderful, the service was excellent and the food was super delicious. We opted for a cheese burger meal, 2 x Turkey roasts and a children's chicken burger meal and all was pleasantly presented and tasted scrumptious. The environment was clean, friendly and calm and we (myself especially) loved the fact that people were bringing their dogs along too! We shall be bringing our little pooch next time!! The wheelchair access was great too for those seeing that option. The menu has a lovely selection including options for those who are needing a meal thats for someone who has/is a vegetarian/vegan/allergies/restrictions. They have a lovely play area outside and ample parking including disabled spots too. Cannot recommend highly enough. Its a little treasure of a place. Thanks Tracy for such a lovely experience and your team are a credit to you! Be back soon. Linzi & Family xx

Came for Sunday roast and it was lovely

We arrived after walking our dog Friday lunch time, we sat outside as nice day. Hubby went in for drinks and menu 1pm, when he went back in to order was told would have to wait 20min before we could order any food, after 20 mins went back in told we still could not order our food. Went back out side as hubby was told they would come out and let us know. By 2pm, 50 mins from when we tried to order , decided not to wait any longer, if we had been informed of this earlier would not have waited.

Had a few nice meals here including Christmas dinner. We've also popped in just for drinks. Good drinks, pleasant staff, Nice pub!

Wow. Delicious mixed and grill great value for money

What a great Sunday lunch. Awesome atmosphere. Lovely staff

Visited the Market on Friday and popped in for lunch. Very enjoyable and staff friendly.

Were satisfied and enjoy so much. We will surely comeback every day until our vacation here is done.

Lovely roast dinner. I was very impressed by service from Kaitlyn she was very attentive, friendly and professional. Service was also speedy and food came out quickly.

Excellent meal in a lovely setting. Staff were really friendly and facilities lovely and clean. Will definitely visit again

Excellent pub with a traditional feel

Very nice food, friendly, helpful staff, good beer, a nice atmosphere and dog friendly. Who could ask for more?

Lovely pub with great food and atmosphere. Friendly staff, always enjoy my time here

Excellent food . Friendly and helpful staff. Thank you.

I’ve been for a few meals here now and Steph and the team are always great! The prices are good and the food is delicious. Tables are clean and the staff always helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone for a drink and meal!

Ordered 2 large roasts. One with beef and one with turkey. Our meals came out and the beef was lamb. We received the correct meal in the end however we were missing Yorkshire puddings, mash and stuffing and had to ask twice to make the mistakes right. We still never received the stuffing. Overall I’m very disappointed as it seemed like a lovely place to come to unwind after a long dog walk. After all the mistakes and time wasting we was not offered a partial refund, and was not checked back up on to see if everything was okay.

We came in as a group of friends. Place was nice but found one of the staff members to be quite rude. Online menu is different to when you get there. Options are limited for lunch. Our food came and most of the ingredients were missing, we mentioned this to the food runner who pretty much didn't care at all and just walked off shrugging her shoulders. Luckily the guy at the bar was a lot more hospitable.

Great staff , great food , great prices

Christmas day dinner 2023 £59.99 should not have been anywhere near that price, service was not what we expected at all... The email below was sent and had no reply... Good Morning, Christmas Day a party of people came for dinner at Bradgate Arms and would like to say a few things. When arrived and sat down for dinner they're were only one set of knives and forks, none for starters, no spoons for dessert we had to ask for them and then were just put left on the end of the table without being given to customers sat at the table, no serving spoons for extras that were ordered and being shared and some vegetables and stuffing were missing from plates. One starter was wrong but wasn't offered anything else, was just told nothing left as they had already been made up. The extras paid for were brought to the table way before the main meal and put on the table before starter plates and soup dishes were removed. Most of the food was nice, but service wasn't at all good, a little upsetting for Christmas day meal that was expected for the price. I know you were busy, but things I have mentioned should never have happened.

Wonderful staff and service, accommodated a party of 10+ including dog, baby and children with no advance booking. Food was prepared quickly to a high standard.

Lovely quiet country pub with good food and great atmosphere (Play area for kids in better weather too)

Very nice venue, warm with a nice atmosphere. Food & service was good & value for money. I would recommend you try it.

Lovely pub! With lovely staff, which was very welcoming, menu is s good layout and food is amazing!! Highly recommend this pub.

Came with my husband for "date night" was nice and relaxing. The staff on were so welcoming and so helpful for all out questions, we'll definitely be back

Lovely meal friendly staff reasonably priced also next time could bring my dog 🐶.

Very disappointed with the food it was all over cooked and quite tasteless sorry. they advertise on all unbrellas outside that they did Aspal cider only to be told they had none !!!

We had lovely experience here for my husbands 70th all meals came out together, 12 of us and was really good friendly and staff

Had a great Spicy Pulled Pork sandwich at lunch time.

Nice meal, great atmosphere. Trainer waitress was nice, needed improvement but was still pleasant. Food was alright, except for the fact our cheese, leak and potato pie was misplaced for the beef pie. But that happens sometimes no-ones fault. Curtesy they took off the pie, overall good environment

Nice grub in a pleasant atmosphere

Came for a family meal for a birthday and was served by Tracy and Molly and the service was great and the food was lovely. Tracy was very good and service was fast . Will definitely be back again

It claims to be dog friendly but dogs can only go in the garden. I asked if I could add 2 extra sausages on to our large food order and was told a categorical NO. I have eaten out alot with my dog, all over the country and this is the first pub that has refused. If you have a dog find another pub. Also no one checked if our meal was OK, or offered us sauces. And every time we walked in to buy a drink everyone stopped and stared we felt like we were trespassing in a LOCAL pub.

We didn't eat so can't comment but what a lovely pub. The epitome of an English village pub. Very friendly service, pretty beer garden and well used by locals. Will definitely visit again.

Had a meal the other day at the bradgate arms in cropston the food was very tasty and made fast too.lovely atmosphere and all the staff were very friendly and helpful I will tell anyone to go here as it's a brilliant day/night with the family and or friends

Dog friendly ? Sort of ! .we sat in the lovely garden and had a meal to celebrate my sons 30 th birthday BUT could not believe that you were unable to cook 2 sausages for our dog which most pubs always do ... unbelievable jobsworth (the computer says no maybe) 🤨

we only came for a drink as food wasn't being served when we came but loved the garden and people

Very nice food and nice garden and reasonably priced Staff very friendly

Friendly staff nice atmosphere food really good service very good

Our running club, went for an evening run around Bradgate Park and then to the pub for dinner (steak night). Great service and my sirloin steak and pint of Wainwright were fab. Brilliant night.

Wonderful pub in the heart of the Leicestershire countryside. The staff were warm, friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious. Will definitely be visiting again.

Canny pub with a decent pint- we didn’t eat food here but a good selection of bar snacks Dog Friendly
