Rutland Arms in Melton

We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Rutland Arms for my mothers birthday. The food tasted great, fresh and so nice to try something a little different. The waitress, (I can't remember her name) but she was so lovely and chatty & an asset to the business. I would recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy a meal in nice surroundings with good food that won't break the bank. We will definitely be returning.

When we arrived we were greeted with a welcoming smile and asked if we had booked a table. We had but were waiting for the remaining guests. No rush to get us seated. Just a lovely calming approach to their guests xxx

Food was excellent! Service excellent staff friendly and helpful. We’ve visited a few times now and it’s been consistent. This is now our regular go to for great pub food, highly recommend the steak and mac and cheese. The salads are beautiful too. Great choices on the menu to suit all. Definitely need to go back to try the Sunday roast!

Excellent food which was value for money, Staff were friendly and helpful and it had a good clean feel to it shame we were only in the area one night would have loved to try out more dishes.

Fab menu Excellently trained staff Friendly bar Welcoming restaurant Will return 100% And the Shiraz… perfect! Partner said the beer was really well kept.

What a lovely re furbished pub by the new owners. Super Sunday Lunch with locally sourced beef. Very tasty and loved the options of extra sides. Great menu and great welcome & friendly service. Looking forward to trying the week menu next. Great asset to Bottesford

Great food Great beer Great service Nothing to fault at all!!! Really lovely venue Definately visit again Emma and her team are very helpful and attentive

Called into our local for lunch, received our usual warm friendly welcome from Diane and a cold refreshing pint while making a choice from the menu. My better half had the roast beef and I had steak pie pots and veg. My pie was delicious and the better half said the roast beef was to die for and he is Very fussy. Thank you Charlotte and Diane for the excellent food and service.

Set in the centre of this delightful village the Rutland Arms is a spacious and comfortable pub. The food is very nice and well presented. The car park is limited but there is easy street parking close by.

We visit this pub a couple of times a month always a friendly welcome the pub is always warm with a open fire, good choice of drinks and food is good. They have quizzes couple of times a week and arrange a few other events most weeks, Staff and locals all make us welcome and are friendly and chatty. We always look forward to visiting

Popped in for a quick drink lunchtime, my husband had a pint I had a half of shandy, his lager was fine, mine was as flat as Twiggys chest, didn't want to make a fuss, but left feeling disappointed and thirsty.

Comfy pub with good real ales. There is an Indian Restaurant and Takeaway attached to pub so best of both worlds. Pub does lunches but not evening meals.

Great pub with friendly staff and great food didn’t have a high chair and doesn’t really cater for children as no kids menu. But a great lunch was had and we would go back

You can drink or dine alone or with friends. Superb welcoming ambiance. Outstanding range of draft ales and beers, plus 29 quality gins, plus other other spirits. Renowned for being a nice place for nice people.

We took my Grandad out to celebrate his 80th Birthday today and the food was outstanding, thank you to the chef. The bar staff were really friendly and made us feel really welcome. Excellent value for money and really big portions will definitely come back.

Pleasant village pub, pre meal drinks at the Thatch and it a good pub, plenty of alcohol choices, wasn't busy early evening but has a nice English pub charm about it, well worth a pint.

Out on a bike ride and decided to stop for lunch. Came across this pud which did snacks or meals. Staff and other customers were friendly and welcoming. Two baguettes with chips, pint of lager and a glass of coke £17. Thought this was reasonable for a traditional local privately run pub...nice to see some are left. Only serves meals Mon - Fri 12pm - 2pm.

A basic village pub with good simple pub grub at a good price. The cask ales, especially Timothy Taylor's Landlord, is kept superbly, never had a bad pint here! Only disappointment was very limited food on Saturday lunch time, just pre-prepared ham salad or cheese and onion wrapped in cling film.

I think this pub is great the hospitality is fantastic the bar staff and the owners are great I think it's great how they put on entertainment and ensure we are all happy. Overall I would call this a (proper pub)

We called in at lunchtime after a failed attempt to visit Belvoir Castle. We got a warm welcome. The lunch was excellent quality and great value. I had a jacket potato with tuna mayonnaise and my husband had home made macaroni cheese with garlic bread. We had a coffee and that was great too. Wish this pub was nearer to home as we would happily go again.

Always made to feel welcome with a good homely atmosphere, sadly only do meals at lunchtime, I had the best lasagne ever here.

Called in here as the place we use on this route was out of action for the day. Didn't quite know what to expect but we were certainly not disappointed. The place was very welcoming with a roaring fire, very friendly & competent barmaid. Lovely & clean & nicely decorated. They have a specials board which is changed weekly but on this occasion we chose from the menu. Our meals were of very good portions, tasty & piping hot. Hubby indulged in a syrup sponge with custard & he declared it was one of the best tasted in a while. Will definitely return gain when in this area. Highly recommend.

Pub maravilloso, chimenea encantadora, acogedora y encantadora atmósfera. El pub en sí es limpio, muy bien decorado y peculiar con preciosas ilustraciones cuando entras por la puerta. El precio de las bebidas era muy razonable, y aunque estaba ocupado todavía recibimos una bienvenida muy agradable....

Mi pareja y yo no podía decidir sobre un lugar para ir a tomar una cena del domingo, y nos vinimos en Trip Advisor rip para nosotros, y esto fue muy recomendado. valió la pena los 30 minutos en coche. un montón de opciones y...

He comido aquí un par de veces para el almuerzo. Nuevo fantástico menú de pub, recién preparado, no es fácil de encontrar hoy en día. Los precios son muy razonables. Buena selección de especialidades a bordo. El personal es muy amable y un gran servicio....

Spice India, firstly the decor & staff are outstanding, service is second to none. Well let's talk about the food .... Such a comprehensive menu & the staff to guide your way through it if necessary, every course from starter to finish is divine and presentation to match. If you enjoy quality, Indian cuisine do not miss this restaurant.

Visitamos un número de veces, ya sea solo, en pareja o con amigos. Siempre una bienvenida cálida y acogedora. Una excelente variedad de cervezas, vinos y cervezas de barril; incluso no Prosecco en la copa o la botella! Genial, la comida tradicional calidad, incluyendo queso...

Just how a local pub should be. Extremely friendly staff. Friendly locals with a great atmosphere. Fast service even when busy. Even better when the sun is out and you can sit outside. Nice pool table and jukebox which are both free Wednesdays and I think on Sunday's to. Excellent.

I went to this pub with my family (me myPartner and 2 kids) we were having a nice drink whilst we waited for friends to arrive until the LANDLADY! came to the bar and asked if my child doesn't like being in pub, I asked why she replied because she's crying. I said its a he and yeah he's ok, for her to then say can you leave the pub because shes crying too much. My child is a boy not a girl for a start and he only cried for 15 seconds. I was under the impression it was a family pub as we have been before and never had any problems but I've also never seen the landlady before! She had no respect at all she was really rude the way she spoke to us! She made me feel awful. There were only 2 other people in the pub at the time too! WORST PUB I'VE EVER BEEN TOO!

Well worth taking time to leave the main Nottingham to Grantham A52 road and head to Bottesford. A pleasant pub with very welcoming staff. Food very good and well presented. All at a very reasonable price.

Fab nosh!!!!! It was really nice quick service. Great atmosphere!!! Many thanks for help with wheelchair

Visited on a Monday, which is usually a bad day for restaurants as they tend to focus on the weekend. This pub had a reasonable menu and all four of us enjoyed the food and found it very acceptable and good value. Liver and Onions was a pleasant surprise and went down well with my wife! The desserts were good and so was the accompanying custard!

Popped in for lunch last week as it's just around the corner from my parents house. The pubs recently refurbished it's lunch bar and (apparently) has a new manager. The new saloon bar is really nice, smart and comfortable.The food was perfectly ok and un believably cheap. I had a ploughman's lunch for a fiver. OK, it didn't have a pickled onion or any tomato but it had a huge chunk of cheese. Crazy really when they could cut back on the expensive stuff and at some cheap variety bits.Dad had sausage and mash with veg - great value and we cooked.If you're looking for a nice pint and inexpensive, good value food, it's pretty hard to beat.Not the best meal I've ever had - but certainly up there for value.

Little India restaurant in an evening, very comfortable surroundings and attentive staff.Great choice of curries and reasonably priced.

just an average meal in an average village pub. Its always been an ugly building with numerous changes of management, maybe it's changed yet again. Used to be keep the place back in the 70s wasn't the best then.

I chanced upon this pub whilst returning to my nearby accommodation, the Vale of Belvoir Inn at Whatton. I had spent the day with family at Twin Lakes, Melton Mowbray, and I stopped off on the way back in the village of Bottesford. What a find! I was greeted warmly on my entry, in what was an unusally busy public bar, early on a Sunday night. I carry my laptop everywhere, and I was delighted to be able to access free Cloud based wi-fi (yes, free access and good with it), and enjoy a pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord, one of Britain's best real ales. Why can't the Antipodeans make ale like this? With a warm fire, and lovely people, it was with reluctance that I had to return to my room and chaos back at the inn. Try this Rutland, you won't regret it.
