Montero Lounge in Melton

Great friendly staff. Both myself and girlfriend enjoyed the food. Nice relaxed atmosphere.. would definitely go again..

Nice place to relax with a good range of drinks

Great place and atmosphere. Excellent service by Josh along with some very nice food. Came with my 2 boys. Made to feel welcome

Lovely friendly staff and great food.

Love this local lounge. Always good food, drinks and great service. Dog friendly so all the family can enjoy

Love the Lounges. First visit here and didn't disappoint. Lovely fast service, guys who served were lovely. Had the chicken curry for a change, very tasty.

Never been to a lounge cafe/bar before so decided to try it today as a birthday treat for my mum, we all thoroughly enjoyed our food, mum had buttermilk fried chicken, we couldn't believe how thick it was, I had 3 bowl tapas with garlic ciabatta and cheese fries , they were all delicious, my husband had the cowboy smash burger, he even commented that it was one of the nicest burgers he'd ever had, The staff were all very polite and service was great and the price was reasonable, will definitely go back

Great atmosphere, good food, great staff, and a great selection of gluten-free food on menu .

Terrific value, lovely food, comfortable and very good service

We had coffee and cake delicious 😋 plus very quick service 😄

Excellent food and drink. Upstairs sun terrace is lovely. Friendly staff.

Never tried food yet, but the pub itself is beautiful inside it's also dog friendly. Staff are polite and professional recommended highly.

I arrived a day early than my booking. They still accommodated us without issue. Food was hot and tasty. Quiz was fun. Thank you

Good place for a quick bite to eat, good gluten free options although the portion of chips that come with the burgers are very small.

Lovely catch up with friends on the terrace in the sunshine. Spent £30 on three drinks and three houmous with pitta breads. When we asked for more pitta as the houmous to pitta ratio meant there was a lot of houmous left we were told that they would charge us for it. Felt a bit disgruntled so didn’t bother & the houmous went to waste. False economy on their part I think as we probably would have ordered another round of drinks had they been a bit more accommodating. Regretted my upfront tip I paid whilst ordering online at the table. Shame ☹️

Lovely place. Great for a light bite and dog friendly!!

Great around place to eat and drink. Service and atmosphere very welcoming

We had a selection of tapas, which were very tasty. Service and friendliness of the staff was great.

Visited here for a work gathering with about 35 people in total. As such a large party we sat upstairs using the indoors and outdoor terrace. We pre ordered the food which was clearly labelled for each person when the courses arrived. The servers were very friendly and helpful, letting us know when the each course arrived as we were sat outside most of the time. The food was tasty and as expected for a lounge. Everything was nice and hot. The menu had good vegetarian options and excellent non-alcoholic cocktails (the coconut and pineapple punch was delicious) The staff on the bar were friendly and willing to go out of their way to make our visit enjoyable. I would recommend coming here whether you’re a couple, family or large gathering. The menu has a variety of choices for everyone and the staff are excellent.

Great if you need choices of gluten free food ..we'll done ✔️

Love this place. They offer a great menu with lots of choice and the staff are lovely and friendly.

Great food and wonderful service from Josh I think his name was( tattoos and glasses). Will be returning soon as it was a wonderful experience

Delicious food with a bit of variety. Tasteful ambiance, and pleasant service.

First visit here and was very impressed

Excellent food and atmosphere Service was very slow and slightly poor as we had our food before drinks Once waiters came to the table it was fine - slightly disappointing but think I'll probably come on a weekday than weekend next time

First time finding the roof terrace, absolutely lovely.

Amazing food, excellent service and atmosphere and love the separate vegan and gluten free menus. Definitely recommend

The lounge has a very positive vibe and atmosphere. It's children and family-friendly. Myself and my family sat on the terrace yesterday, as the weather was amazing. The food was good. However, the lounge burger I had was a little bit too dry. The rest of the food we ordered was very tasty. They also serve one of my favourite Spanish beers - Cruzcampo! Highly recommended place to eat, drink, and relax!

I like to visit the Monterro Lounge to meet up with friends for lunch. It's generally quiet enough so that you can chat in a pleasant atmosphere. Good service and a menu with something for everyone.

Loads of gluten-free options and totally delish food! Also dog-friendly! Impressed!

Food and staff was both fantastic.

Delicious food and cocktails and friendly staff! Ordering and payment is done on your phone and then the staff bring it to you

Great dog friendly hot spot and best full english I've had in ages

Chilled our, dog friendly and great food. Loved it. Our local lounge!

Lovely place to visit with good food fairly priced.

Food and drinks were good, dog friendly, baby friendly, good selection.

Friends recommended this & as its less than 100m from our front door I thought why not. The fries were stone cold & over seasoned with salt. The tuna melt was melted but you had to look hard to find any fish & then there was the Shakshuka. Poached eggs were hard bolied. The sauce tasted premade like it was out of a bulk sized can. A totally dominant one dimension flavour. I hope this is the worst food I have this year.

Fabulous food, great service, super decor and good vibe. Unlikely to be back in Melton any time soon but would go back and highly recommend to others.

Excellent catering for those requiring Gluten free food, wish I'd been aware of this 250 branch chain previously.

Popped in for a quick vite to eat whilst in Melton Mowbray. Very jice venue relaxed atmosphere and great food. Quick service as well. Very friendly staff.

Just a lovely time! The food was wonderful (thank you to all the kitchen staff), The FOH staff made it so welcoming. Max, Florence, and Ollie (I think... sorry 😞) were just super. Florence happily took a photo of me, my son, and his partner. We had seen each other in person for 2 years. Lot's if hugs and happiness. A special day. Thank you x

Friends group is spread out location wise and this is our halfway point. Food has always been great, as is service and atmosphere.

Montero is my favourite place I don’t go anywhere else ! The food is outstanding the atmosphere is great the staff are fabulous Long may it last

Shakshuka was fabulous. Very friendly staff and decor was exceptional, lot to observe.

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and good food.

This place is amazing. Feels like stepping into a different world. Arrived late after an evening of being redirected around floods whilst trying to get to Yorkshire and staff could not have been friendlier. Food is excellent & varied - we had delicious tapas and left with a gift of jellybeans for the boys.

Such friendly staff. We were a large group and they went over and above to sit us together. The food was delicious and the team were attentive. There was a colouring table for the little ones and it had a nice atmosphere all round.

Always great going here, good food, good beer and friendly service.

Just eaten here and it was great!!!!! Attentive staff, tasty food (arrived quickly) Great atmosphere. 5 star service. Thank you. We will be back.

Excellent service. Lovely coffee, my favourite.

The team make Montero, always upbeat, engaging and professional. Well done

Loved this place. Cosy , Warm , good service & fab food . Loved all the extras too e.g helping yourself to cold water at the bar , newspaper's/magazines available to read , children art & crafts table plus great to see calories listed on the Menu. Comfortable seating & ambience superb. It's difficult to find a place like this . We'll done & thank you .

Excellent friendly service and tasty food. Lots of vegetarian options and good portions. Super professional, warm, clean. Accessible toilets on ground floor.

Friendly staff quick at getting your order delivered to the table nice atmosphere.

Lovely lounge ..vegan tapas was really good x

Great atmosphere, wonderful vibes, lovely staff and even better food :)

A similar location to the Centro Lounge in Loughborough. Really good selection for vegans and vegetarians. Very knowledgeable on food allergies. Lots of seating options. Food is reasonably priced and cooked to order.

I rarely give five stars, let alone for any chain/ branch location, but I can't fault this place. It used to be a complicated quest to find decent food in Melton, but this has revolutionized the experience. Menu and food fab, ambience impressive, staff perfect (six times in a row now). Good work guys. Keep it up

Amazing place! Staff’s very friendly Food is fantastic, I’ve been there 4 times with my family and definitely will come back again. Toilets perfect clean and smells really good! Great place to stay with family, childrens and dogs ❤️❤️❤️❤️

👍 Pros They have a good website interface to order food. The food was great with the online interface having the option to remove any individual item from the burger. 🍔 Food Quesidilla was the best dish of the lot. It was a Tapa so it wasn't much in quantity. Expected from a tapa. Overall, everything tasted good. 🌌Experience The atmosphere of the place is outstanding. Love the vibe. If seated far from the counter, you may have to walk up to them to get their attention once you've ordered food and settled down. I needed to go upto the counter to speak about the flat coke. Google maps didn't have a good pic of the menu so I've added that and my receipt as well to allow others to make holistic judgements. Service was prompt once the request is put. In my case it was about flat coke & Tabasco. 👎 Cons Cola from had gone flat. We asked for a replacement. It wasn't as good as what you'd get in a can/bottle but once they replenished the syrup, the taste did improve. They had last of tobasco sauce remaining and could do with better preemptive stocking of supply.

Very nice food and great service.

Always great atmosphere and good food

Great food, good value for money and friendly staff!

First time going here and it was lovely great all rounder! Nice yo go Sat afternoon getting food and a couple of drinks with friends.

Four peckish adults arrived for breakfasts and pancakes and left very full and very satisfied with every thing about the place, food and service was outstanding. Just wish it was more local to me .

Excellent atmosphere nice and relaxing highly recommended

Such a lovely place. Great staff and delicious food. Loved the sofa.

Quiz night on Monday is well organised and fun. The proceeds go to charity. Great place.

These lounges always deliver good food, melton was no exception.

As usual the food was great. I have used them loads and always seems to be our go-to. Right price, decent looking and great food.

I love coming to the lounges but I always feel like something is missing. On the positive, I like that there are gluten free options, a veggie menu, a nut free section of the kitchen and other accommodations but in essence I feel like something more could be done to elevate the dining experience here.

Decent burger. Bit cold upstairs, but nicer down. Beer was good. Food came quickly.

Decent food, friendly staff, cool restaurant. Would happily go here again. Entire gluten free and vegan menus. All varieties of non dairy milks available. Reasonably priced

I think were trying all 300 of them. Nice inside. Great range of food and decor. Wow

Absolutely amazing! I can not recommend this place enough!!!! Food was delicious. Staff are amazing and very helpful, nothing was to much. Acoustic entertainment was perfect.

Tonight was the first time we have ever been. We had a selection of tapas its was amazing 😍, the atmosphere was great and the live band was a nice touch. The decor of the place is very welcoming. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Overall would recommend this place and we would definitely return.

Mmmm so very rare these days I find! Well, we were mainly drawn to visit Montero Lounge because two of the party must avoid gluten and the choices here appeared so yummy and varied. From first to last customer service touch we were so impressed with the welcome, service throughout and tremendous food. ( the self serve iced water on tap was much appreciated on a warm day and obviously frees up staff to concentrate on key tasks) All in all this business model and well recruited staff - doorstep to kitchen pass- are a dream team so do go check them out soon. And tbh although reaching for a slightly different market I’d have to say ML out performs co- operator Cosy Club specifically on GF knowledge and creative options. Thank you again team MLounge, we’ll definitely return when next in the area 😊

I can not tell you how delicious the food is here! The staff are also super friendly and are always on hand if you need them. We sat outside enjoying the roof terrace on a glorious day. The interior is full of paintings by various artists and gives the establishment more character and a feeling of home. I went for a big breakfast, and my friend went for a vegan breakfast - both were very good portion sizes and very much needed. I believe it's a dog friendly environment (please do check with Montero Lounge)

Very nice breakfast . Well cooked, tasted fine

The tapas are the best in melton

Had not been into Montero to eat since about 2017, due to mostly average standards of food and service. However, i came away pleasantly surprised with the update to the menu and friendliness of staff. Always have liked the two floor setup with an outdoor area and the design of the interior, so was glad to see it still intact. The menu has since been revised with additions such as a carbonara, new improved burgers and a choice of various puddings. We opted for the carbonara and the lounge burger as mains, both of which were made with awareness and precision. One bowl of chrros following this is plenty for 2 people and were also made well with lots of flavour. Another much welcomed update to the general experience was the cost of the food and drinks, which has dropped by a few pounds each. Overall, it was a great lunch which was highlighted by helpful, welcoming staff and food that has massively improved to cater for lots of different palettes.

Fantastic friendly staff, quality drinks and food all wrapped up in a lovely cosy atmosphere. My food order was quickly prepared and I felt thoroughly welcome. Cudos to the team, a genuinely lovely experience to visit.

Lots of games to play great cocktails

First visit, fabulous welcome from staff was asked if we needed vegan menu which we did. Staff are polite and helpful. Food is fabulous and a quick service and hot. Would highly recommend to others. I am looking forward to my next visit.

Always welcomes, good customer service and food very good. Drinks a bit expensive but overall recommended.

I ordered the standard lounge breakfast with extra streaky bacon and it was lush. Just the right amount. Wasn’t a fan of the strawberry milkshake but for £15 total it was a good price for a tasty filling meal. My bf had the Smokey joe burger which was good but fries came a bit cold and he said wasn’t worth it for the price. Overall would come again for lunch or evening drinks.

A local suggested we lunch here on our visit to Melton and the three of us (Seniors!) were not disappointed. Quirky, but attractive, decor, comfortable seating and a wide menu choice. Friendly and prompt service. Tasty food and three clean plates says a lot! We will return.

Had our first date here just under 5 years ago and is still my now wife's favourite place to go, fantastic food and atmosphere!

Great food and drink, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Overall, exactly what we wanted.

Excellent food, nice environment. Will definitely be returning again.

We visited this venue with friends several times during the recent 1940’s weekend and we all absolutely loved it! Excellent breakfasts, lovely coffee and very friendly and efficient staff. Luke the manager made us feel so welcome and could not have done more for us. We shall certainly return on any future visits to Melton Mowbray.

Nice food music maybe a little loud

Lovely lunch in an inviting quirky environment Will definitely be back

I have scored 4 for service as it's always been good but in the last couple of months I haven't seen the usual staff there, who were very attentive with dietary requirements. The new staff are good but not as efficient.

I go to montero lounge often ( every Thursday ), however this Thursday we walked in with 3/4 of a coffee left over. Obviously I knew that we would have to buy other drinks and food while on the premises. On speaking to the man behind the bar he said it was fine to have them inside as long as we were purchasing from the restaurant. He then came up afterwards to kick us out for consuming them after previously saying that we were able to. The man was very rude and was very confusing changing his mind on what he previously said after we had sat down and was ready to order. I don’t think I will be going back any time soon.

Pretty good all round. Coffee was spot on and the big breakfast was brilliant.

It was a bit of a long wait for food to table, after the order was made over the counter

Decent place to visit and great atmosphere. We had pulled brisket with Rice. The rice was a little hard but the brisket was okay.

Staff here are rude, the general manager is one of the worst I have ever come across, no professionalism or service shown to his staff and the customers alike. From what I've heard the staff turn over is high, they lose really good members of staff due to poor management or care. A large portion of the food is clearly microwaved as well.
