Great we have, a spoons in Melton although service is slow at time generally it's, good however the pub is cold sat here right now it's like the Baltic sat in here and the toilets are freezing

The drinks are at great cheap prices. It was taking a little while to be served the drinks as the bar tenders are still in training. The food is OK and not too pricey. Our food orders for 4 people were 2 x all-day brunch, which were fine. And 2 steaks with salads. My steak was ok. However, the other steak was really tough and had to be sent back. This was not a problem to the staff. It was not ideal as we all had finished eating.

Bang smack in the middle of Melton Mowbray on the main road opposite the taxi rank. Usual suspects for a spoons ...set on various levels with eclectic seating. No cctv in the upstairs gents toilets & quite busy, hence the delay when ordering drinks by app. Didn't eat, so I cannot comment on the food.

Was very good. Now gets very very crowded at the weekends, probably due to all the new homes being built in the town. Tables are usually sticky and full of uncollected glasses and food plates.

Paid parking around the back killed it for me. Less than 15 minutes over at a pay and display and stuck with a £100 fine from nearly 4 months ago. Although I do appreciate I stayed a little over what I paid for, outsourcing your parking to a moral-less scum-run parking agency to solve a ‘parking problem’ is a sure fire way to make sure people don’t return. Actively going to recommend people not to use this site & other Wetherspoons. PS - They all HATE dogs

It's a spoons so you have a good idea what you'll get. Food and drinks are good value even if they sometimes seem to struggle to get food to the table hot. Bar service is generally prompt as is using the app. Main thing that niggles is that they are very slow at cleaning up and there are usually lots of tables littered with dirty plates and glasses.On my visit today an adjacent table had dirty plates and glasses on it when we arrived which were still there when we left after our meal.

Really disappointed today. Had usual of avocado muffin topped with a poached egg. It looked totally different to when I've had this at the Ashby and Coalville spoons. The avocado was thinly spread on the muffin, not in chunks. It was stone cold. The egg looked more hard boiled than poached and lukewarm. The restaurant was quiet so no excuse. Surely the menu is standardised and it should be the same in every branch?

Disgusting! Service at bar was appalling, blond haired young lady could not have been more disinterested. We had never tried steak night before and will never again. Service was quick but jack Daniel’s Tennessee sauce included in my gourmet steak option was missing, when queried they brought me a bit of bbq sauce 🤦🏻♀️, chips under cooked and yes it seems like a good deal, but not if it’s not actually edible.

Really disapointing visit. Food was cold, 1 small mushroom, bacon under cooked. Also the breakfast discription a bit misleading. The large breakfast says bacon, 2 sausages, 3 hash browns so I assumed it was only 1 bacon so I ordered another rasher but it came with 2 so got 3 undercooked rashers 😏. Coffee is also just luke warm.

The Kettleby Cross is one of the best pubs in Melton Mowbray. The English breakfast and caffe mocha have met my expectations. The service is on a high level, and the staff is very friendly and professional. The atmosphere was very relaxing and enjoyable. There is also a huge selection of draught and normal beers and ales. Highly recommended pub!

My wife and I were passing through the area and stopped off at the Kettleby Cross for dinner on route to East Midlands Airport. There was ample free parking in the council car park opposite (it's free after 6pm) and quite a few people were sitting outside enjoying food and drinks as it was a warm day. We ate inside and used the Wetherspoons App to order drinks and food. The service during our visit was friendly and efficient and the food was very good. I enjoyed a spicy chicken pizza with an ale, and my wife had the BBQ chicken melt with Jacket Potato and a soft drink, and we shared a dessert, which was very nice. The toilet facilities were large and located upstairs (as is often the case with 'Spoons pubs). Overall we had a pleasant meal and stop here on our journey.

This establishment was absolutely packed late on a wet Sunday morning, which meant a long wait to be served at the bar (there was no mobile phone signal for my mobile network so I couldn't use the app). We only ordered toast to eat, and it was OK. There was only one coffee machine working though, which meant I had to queue 10 minutes or so because of the number of people in front of me, some filling 2 or even 3 cups for their dining companions, and I couldn't face queuing again for a free refill. Even if both coffee machines had been working, I suspect only two would not be adequate in busy times.

Called in here today for lunch. Staying at Eye Kettleby Lakes. Easy to park as Car Park opposite - £2.30p for 2 hours, cheaper than Lincoln. Busy but got served quickly. Two scampi combo, one large bowl of chips, large Chardonnay and pint of Doombar, just over £20. Wetherspoons always reasonably priced. The usual 5⭐️ hygiene rating - never had a dirty glass at any of the Wetherspoons we have visited and, on our travels, there have been many😊. Furnishings rather tired.

The Kettleby Cross in Melton Mowbray was once a stone cross, probably noting a boundary that once stood in the town. Long since gone, a Wetherspoons pub now sits in its place. The pub doesn’t have quite the same historical feel as a centuries old stone marker, but has a place nonetheless. Once destroyed by fire, the pub was refurbished quickly and has served breakfasts, beer and a burger meals, a selection of beers and wines and affordable curries ever since. We had lunch on a weekday in The Cross and enjoyed the meal. As ever, you know what you’re getting in a Wetherspoons and in that respect The Kettleby Cross is no different. The staff in The Cross doe seem more than happy to make sure that The Cross matches Melton Mowbray’s exacting standards and the pub does have a well looked after feel. Our chicken curries nicely hit the spot and we left the pub rested and gorged. We then turned into tourists, bought the nearest pork pie and made our way home…

Called in for a breakfast, fast service but all sites of this chain can’t seem to keep food hot. I know it’s not cooked to order but hot plates or lights over food are common nowadays. A part from that it’s a good pub, they all have a great choice of beers at good prices. The Cross is on a main road but the is a public car park across the street (can get busy at peak times)..

I visited Stapleford Park with a family group - my wife, son and girlfriend and my father-in law and his wife. We wanted to celebrate my son’s girlfriend’s birthday with a special occasion visit because, being Australian, she relished the idea of doing something typically English. The venue itself is undoubtedly impressive, but the afternoon tea experience was very disappointing. On arrival there was no proper welcome from any member of staff engaged in afternoon tea service. We were shown to our table and given a briefing from a senior staff member. After this, the level of service was virtually non-existent. Nobody asked whether everything was OK, whether more or any different teas were required. Amazingly, for this type of event, only one type of tea per person was offered. The sandwiches were unappetising, and cakes decidedly unimpressive. My father-in-law who is 98 went to the bar to settle the bill, and it was only a few days later that he showed us he’d been charged 6 x £41, plus a service charge of £30. He wasn’t told about the service charge when paying. We were outraged at the underhand way this charge had been levied, and also the fact that there was no relationship between the charge and the poor service we had received. The service charge was later refunded following a phone call by my wife. There are obvious signs of weak management and poor staff training here. Avoid if you’re looking for a more rewarding experience.

Call me a leprechaun and get me a pot because ive found gold. What a pub! Every village pub has its uniquity but this one has knocked them out the park. Inside a stunning building is one of the friendliest places ive been to. The staff (Chloe in particular) were so welcoming they made mother Teresa look like Pol Pot. I have no doubt this pub has been around for 2 millenia, because if jesus was to have a ‘last supper’ it mustve been here. The chefs worked a miracle in that kitchen. If my girlfriend wasnt there to tell me off for bad manners i wouldve licked the plate clean. Every local to Waltham on the Wolds should feel privileged to have this at your doorstep. Bloody brilliant
