The Britannia in Charnwood

The food here is so nice, tasty, fresh and an amazing variety of choice. Something foe everyone. The staff are really happy and friendly. Lovely atmosphere also.

We went to the britannia after spending a good part of the day at the 1940's VE Day, Melton Mowbray with friends. It was fitting to have a meal at 'The Britannia'. The country pub is beautifully maintained. We felt really comfortable. The owner who is very hands on took our order, he was so very polite. We ordered 2 Thai curries, 1 veggie, other kingprawn. 1 chicken jalfrezi, and 1 sausage mash & veg. My husband said his sausage & mash is the best he has ever had. Now that is a real compliment, as he has had plenty of sausage & mash over the decades and even on a 5 star cruise ship. What can we say other than plates/dishes empty. The food arrived so well presented, very tasty and hot. The desserts again exceptional, very tasty, hot and portion size better than you would expect. We can honestly say, this place is worth a visit . We felt this place deserved a 10/10 for service, food & comfort.

This evening we were greeted by Mia who was very welcoming, she looked after us from start to finish. This was the first time I’ve been to the Britannia since the current owners have taken over and I’m delighted to say the service from the staff, the food was delicious too.

I was warmly received by Mia—such a gracious young woman. She saw to us all evening. I had a lovely lamp rump and waffle; both were quite excellent. I’d certainly recommend them.

Had a really nice meal and the drinks were flowing well. The staff are really helpful and we enjoyed pur meal. We would definitely come back again. Special shoutout to amy, mia and ethan.

Fabulous Food, Great Service, we will definitely be back!!

Llamé con un amigo para tomar una copa, entonces ambos decidimos almorzar. Ambos tuvimos barriga de cerdo cocinado lentamente, que era excelente. Atendido por Mia que excelente, ella era muy educado y atento. El Britannia es un hermoso pub en un pueblo encantador.

Wow just wow !! A hidden gem the whole experience was brilliant. Great welcome and also the love your furry friend even doggy treats and water. The food was really nice best pub grub in Leicestershire Try the bbq ribs they were a really treat , also nice to see the chef whom was very proud of his food and interested if we were having a good time.going to plan a return visit and take all my family

The food and service were 10/10. There were so many things to choose from on the menu that it was difficult to decide. I went with the katsu curry which was amazing and the biscoff cheesecake was incredible. Really appreciated the chef coming over to chat to us after our meal! Will definitely be back soon to try a Sunday roast!

Excellent! Quite possibly the best pub meal I have ever had! A very tender steak with a beautifully dressed salad, great chips, onion rings and mushroom. I even had a side of the tasty lamb croquettes. Service was prompt and friendly and any request was easily accommodated. Would highly recommend - you won't regret coming here!

Qué gran lugar, amable, increíble para comer y beber con amigos y familiares. El almuerzo fue encantador, nuestra primera vez visitando La Bretaña después de ser recomendado a nosotros. No podía fallar. Bienvenida, ambiente, y el servicio era genial con el propietario siendo muy atento. Preciosa decoración y alrededores, excelente comida a precios razonables, de un menú muy extenso. Sin duda volveremos. Gracias.

Came for a family Sunday lunch when we first walked in lovely greeting then it went down hill.. waitresses were not very attentive, took the order then never seen them again never came over to see if food was ok or did we need anything. Had to get up and ask for sauces . Ordered a second round of drinks waited 25 min and gave up . One man came over I think he was the manager and asked us when we were nearly finished but that was it . Good service earns tips !! On the other hand the Sunday lunch was lovely couldn't fault it apart from the beef could of been a bit pinker but that's individual prefrence...just a few minor points ... the batter on the hulomi and calamari needs to be thinner a bit to heavy and greasy and the mash needs a lot of work no seasoning and not really sure it was real mash ! Would definitely come and have a roast again shame about the service

Myself and 3 friends ate here, 2 of us never been before. Really lovely meal, excellent choices, presented beautifully. Staff helpful, overall a really good experience. Well done to the chefs too.

Excellent food, well worth a visit. Fish and chips with curry sauce 😋

We dropped in for some lunch ( got to admit after finding out the Star Inn was limited.. very limited menu for lunch on a Tuesday). We were so pleased to have gone here rather than the Star. Full menu, polite helpful staff and food was lovely. Went in wanting lunch and a pudding, came out only having a crispy pork burger and no room for a tempting pudding.

Had a fantastic meal that was a great end of the day and the price was great for everything we had definitely recommend it

Just sat in the beer garden now in the sun, just a last minute pop in when I was on a walk. Had a 2 course meal and it was absolutely delicious and service was second to none.

First Visit today and great service with a smile . The pizza was amazing !!

Just been for a meal at this fabulous pub to celebrate Mother's day. The food was amazing along with the service [ Kam the manager was very helpful].If anyone is looking for first class food then I can't recommend the Britannia pub enough.

Great food and service ! will definitely be back

We waited half an hour for our order to be taken which was disappointing, despite repeated attempts to catch someone's eye. But things improved after that. The food was delicious, hot and well cooked, and the service was also good, and would recommend it. However, on receiving, and checking the bill, we found we had been charged £32.00 more for a bottle of wine, a pint and a lemonade that we had not had! So mixed feelings here....

Great staff tasty and filling food accommodated tight time scale 👍

We visited as a small group of friends recently and were treated to a choice of excellent food, with great variety, very well presented and served nicely by very pleasant staff members Amy and Elsbeth who were most attentive. We had a lovely time, thanks to all that made our lunch special.we certainly will return . Roger Rixon

Been here twice for food most recently tonight. Absolutely excellent all round. Food was amazing and 100% worth the price. Customer service was brilliant and also they were very welcoming even bringing water out for our dog Simba. Will definitely be returning here☺️

Super delicious food, really enjoyed the chef's special course and pudding ..wonderful ambience.excellent service.. We definitely gonna come back again and again..

An excellent spot for a wonderful night out and dinner.Super delicious food.Really enjoyed the chef's special starters,main course and puddings.Wonderful ambience. Excellent service. Definitely we gonna come back again..

The food here was absolutely amazing. Thank you Chef! From the appetizers to the main course and desserts, everything was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The presentation was beautiful, and the portions were generous. The desserts were the perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. Highly recommend this place for a great dining experience!

We visited The Britannia as a family of three all ordering the homemade pasty and Eton mess to follow. The food was delicious and filling. The staff were wonderful and the owner Kam was very accommodating. 10/10 all round. We definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quaint village pub with a very relaxed atmosphere.

Perfect little country pub, amazing food and attentive staff! Went after seeing other people’s reviews and it definitely did not disappoint - exceeded my expectations!

Just returned after a few years for lunch . The staff and food were fabulous. The pate was beautiful and the scampi and sauces were excellent. It’s lovely to see this place back were it should be and serving quality again . Well done Kam and his team can’t wait to return

Excellent food ..wonderful menu for a lunch time ..not just a lunch menu but could order from the main menu as well..reasonably priced for the quality ..excellent service and accommodate slight alterations to the menu ..thoroughly recommend..we will be returning

Second time I've been here in a few months, & the food is amazing! The service we've received is pleasant & professional. Highly recommend if you fancy a good village pub!

Food is usually really good, have been a couple of times recently & just the once when the food was ropey, part from that food has been really consistent

We visited last night for 1st time and were very impressed with everything. Excellent service, will certainly be returning for more of what the menu has to offer. It was a cold night but pub was warm and welcoming. All in all, good prices too.

Great service. Food was outstanding. Can't wait to visit again! 10/10

Lovely dinner out - amazing servic

Have just visited here for the first time in a long time as we found the good dropped off a couple of years ago. We weren’t disappointed! Really imaginative menu and super tasty. Very well presented and politely served. We will be coming back here time and again as there are loads more things on the menu we want to try. Well done for turning this place around 👏🏼

First time visit since change of ownership and it was a fantastic experience. The roast dinner was superb and service excellent. Will definitely be returning soon!

Lovely place very friendly staff & very tasty food! 😊 they even made our pooch very welcome with some water and a dish of treats! We both had the very tasty steak pie with creamy mash & veg with gravy. Unfortunately, this time we couldn't manage a dessert as we normally have the sticky toffee pudding, which is delicious!

I hadn’t been here for a long time and my friend and I decided it was a good halfway place to meet. It didn’t disappoint. The food was fabulous, I had the prawn curry and my friend had the chicken which were both well presented and full of flavour. The staff were lovely too, attentive but not at the table all the time. Overall a delightful evening and I will definitely be going back

Had Sunday lunch here with kids and friends. Very polite, friendly and attentive staff. Food delicious and served at a good pace (which helps when you have hungry children). Also a great pub to drop into for a pint if you're walking around the area. Highly recommend.

Been a few times and the food is always amazing.

Nice friendly staff, food was good. I ordered the fish & chips. Chips were not crunchy. (double fried I expected they would be)

The Britannia: A Pub to Remember We recently enjoyed a delightful family meal at the Britannia pub, and it was an experience we won't soon forget. The pub itself has a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately put us at ease. The food was truly exceptional. We sampled a variety of dishes, and each one was cooked to perfection. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and the portions were generous. A particular standout was the succulent steak & ale pie To accompany the delicious food, the selection of beers was impressive. There was something for everyone, from classic ales to craft brews. The service was equally commendable. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and efficient, ensuring that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. They went above and beyond to accommodate our family's needs, making us feel truly welcome. Overall, our meal at the Britannia was a resounding success. The combination of excellent food, a fantastic selection of beers, and friendly service created a truly memorable experience. We highly recommend the Britannia to anyone looking for a warm and welcoming pub with delicious food.

Lovely varied menu with a few twists on pub classics. We were made to feel welcome and the staff were polite and accommodating.

Visited on New Year’s Eve with friends for our annual reunion. What a beautiful pub, with a great atmosphere! Food choice and drinks were excellent! No faults at all! Service was very good, could see it was well run pub with a good reputation We will be back for sure, highly recommend if you haven’t been

We were a large group having Sunday Lunch for a celebration. A variety of meals and courses were ordered. I was very impressed with how well the table service went during the meal. The food quality and presentation were absolutely wonderful. We were all commenting about how much we had enjoyed the food and the good service. The overall experience exceeded expectations.

We're a big fan and return customer and will continue to come back. However, last visit, B Burger coleslaw warm watery, bun was off, one onion ring vs three previously. Steak, was 1/2 the thickness and sauce was different, not as nice. Feedback provided in good faith, we are really picky but as stated we will return because despite the above, you're better than most 😀

We visited today. Four of us for lunch. The service was friendly and efficient. The menu was varied and large. We had tasty food in good sized portions and we will be back. The chilli lamb was excellent but it was all good.

First visit as passing through after weekend away. Fabulous in every way food, service, atmosphere and recommend the Sunday roast. Will be back. Tonia Dean

Nuestro pub local... vamos la mayoría de los fines de semana a tomar algo y elegimos cenar allí el día de Navidad hoy. No decepcionó, fue una comida increíble, un servicio increíble, incluso atendieron a nuestros hijos con chips de salchichas y frijoles... Kam y su equipo realmente han dado la vuelta a nuestro pub del pueblo... Recomendaría encarecidamente

Excellent service and good menu choice, however the portions were far too large; off-puttingly so. The slow cooked pork was the size of a large pork chop, 1.5 inches thick, which would easily have served 2 people, as would the portion of potato served with it. The strips of crackling were inedible, as they would have broken teeth if bitten into. It tasted nice, just far too much of it.

We enjoyed a delightful family lunch at The Britannia Inn in Queniborough. Our party of four adults and two children arrived without a reservation due to a booking error on my part. Despite this, the accommodating staff promptly sorted a table for us without any fuss. (thank goodness- I was off the hook). 🤣 The two-course meal was thoroughly enjoyable, with one guest requesting a spicier curry, which was prepared to perfection and he wasn't disappointed. The clean plates spoke volumes about the quality of the food. Living just down the road, we look forward to returning soon. I highly recommend The Britannia Inn; you won’t be disappointed.

Food was absolutely delicious, we were away for the night and this place was just nearby . But we will 100% be driving 1 &30 hours from home just to eat here again!

Lovely village pub , service and food very good and nice selection of beers ,it was are 6 year old granddaughter birthday ,and they made use all very welcome thank you all

Fantastic place. Such a difference since the new owners took over. Food was outstanding as well as the staff team. The aubergine Bhajia are out of this world. A definitely must have. Thank you to Cam, Ethan and the team 😀

We went here for the 1st time on someone’s recommendation and it was brilliant Excellent service, good portions and extremely tasty - will go there again, have no hesitation in recommending - A*

Have been here many times but yesterdays visit stood out. The "new"owner (it's been a year) was attending to us. He (sorry didn't ask his name?) Was friendly, approachable, polite and helpful. He gave us a great rundown of the menu and detailing which each curry was going to be like. Heat, flavour, spice level etc. He recommended the chicken dish and we went with his recommendations. So glad we did because it was delish. I haven't enjoyed a curry so much in a long time. The girl serving the meal was lovely and friendly too. Locals coming in were helped to their seat when needed and you could see the interaction was genuine. Calling them "MR...INSERT SURNAME... very polite and respectful. My only slight criticism is my curry wasn't hot (in heat not flavour) I like my food piping hot. But it wasn't enough to complain. Overall fantastic place and we shall be back. Thank you and keep up the amazing work

Great pub been going to the Britannia for decades, seen many owners and staff come and go, but this 1st year for the new owners has been superb. Keep up the great work 👍

Dropped in by chance on a Saturday afternoon. 5 of us. Lovely interior. Cosy corner. Great service. Great menu. Good value. Lovely food. Thanks

Today, we went to The Britannia Inn, Queniborough. This was a joint celebration to celebrate a wedding anniversary, a birthday and as a wake. The Britannia Inn was an absolute delight! The warm and inviting atmosphere, coupled with the attentive staff, made for a truly memorable dining experience. The food was exceptional - beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. We can't wait to return to The Britannia Inn and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a fantastic meal in a charming setting.

Our family party of 7 eat on Wednesday evening two weeks ago. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Our daughter especially enjoyed the vegan option. The food was hot, very tasty, with a good selection and the bar staff were very efficient. Compliments must go to the chef and all the kitchen staff, it was a wonderful meal. Thank you for making a lovely family event very memorable

The best village pub in my local area by a long way. The food is always excellent and reasonably priced with generous portions - the menu is also pretty big so there's something for everyone, ranging from classic pub grub done really well to great curries and imaginative dishes. The staff are always very friendly and polite.

Family visit for lunch and was not disappointed. 2 course lunch was excellent value for money, beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Great service, couldn’t fault it.

Vile lasagne was told would replace but you go to restaurant to eat together ,i had already ate most of my meal onion rings were like squid rings coudnt chew them ,get told they won't charge you for crappie meal won't return

Our families visits to the Britannia never disappoints! Always good atmosphere,a professional service and most importantly delicious freshly made food! From scrumptious homemade pies ,lasagna,chicken tikka burgers and more ..🤤 Our kids love it too!!

What a find! Great food, great choice, great service and great price. Definitely going back - there's at least another five dishes I want to try!!

Wonderful food in a lovely part of Leicestershire. My pork tacos were a true fusion of flavours.🙏

The Britannia is a lovely and cosy place to eat, with stunning food and welcoming staff. Over the past year The Britannia has completely turned around under new management and is now a favourite spot. Every meal is bursting with freshness and flavour, is well thought out, expertly prepared and is truly delightful. Really great local gem

Amazing food, lovely staff would recommend

Lovely food, very helpful staff. Only complaint was slow for food coming out.

Great restaurant/pub. Service v good. Venue extensive and freshly prepared. Drinks reasonably priced and wine list covers most taste.

Meal with friends. Party of 6. Arrived at 8.00pm peak time. Service was excellent, beer was well kept Timothy Taylor, wines were a good selection at very reasonable prices. Menue was extensive, inclusive, novel, and backed with a very competent kitchen presenting freshly cooked and tastefully presented meals. Generous portions and reasonable prices make this establishment a must visit.

Dropped in for the first time today for lunch. The food and service were out of this world. We are so glad we decided to stop by on the way through. All of our food was delicious and reasonably priced for the quality and taste. We will definitely be back again.

Beautiful pub, wonderful garden dining, amazing food, best customer service and one of the best aperol spritz I've ever had!

Held a wake at the pub last Friday with catering and refreshments provided, excellent service from the management and staff in both front of house and kitchen. Many thanks to all for your help.

Best pint of neck oil in Leicestershire

I had a meal from the specials menu which was amazing. Delicious food, great portions, cozy, cute lights

Well, what a little gem. The young lady serving us was so attentive and helpful, and gave us some local information for when we are staying in the area again. The food came out and not only looked amazing, it was probably the best pie and meal i have had in a very long time. Highly recommend and not far from Eye Kettleby lakes which was the perfect way to end our trip. Thanks we will definitely be back.😊😊😊

Good food. Good beer. Nice beer garden

The serving staff are lovely. The venue is in a great location. The interior has been cleaned up and there’s pretty lights and fresh flowers. The food is so bland and tasteless, it’s such a shame!! I thought I would give it another go recently as it looks to have been taken over but please someone just put a decent chef in there it’s just so disappointing everytime. Also nobody puts things on boards and slates anymore it’s unhygienic just uses plates. There’s about 5 pages of food to choose from which is also a bit of a red flag for quality. The harissa mayo I had had clumps of stall mayo in it. Not appetising at all I’m afraid. The serving staff made the atmosphere nice but unfortunately won’t be returning for food.

We came here for a meal with family and was seated at a table to wait for the rest to turn up, we wasnt offered any drinks, plenty of staff walked by but didnt offer. Food was nice enjoyed the lasagne. The cheesecake a bit weird the base just was a crumble and the cheesecake was slightly melted didnt feel it had set properly. But nice place for a little get together

We had lunch there today and what can I say but wow! The landlords front of house professionalism was amazing. Absolutely on point with customer service, the starters and mains were extraordinarily good and I'd recommend the Britannia to anyone. Well done to the kitchen crew for presenting and cooking to such a high standard. We'll definitely be back.

Popped in on bank holiday Sunday for lunch. We were made to feel very welcome and the food was the best we’ve tasted for a long time. Love music was an added bonus.

Excellent food, everything we had was brilliant quality and seasoning, and lots of choice on the menu. Dessert was a really decent proper prob serving and delicious - ice cream and custard together possible 🙌 Some really good wines at fair prices, good selection of gins. Staff friendly, really cosy welcoming place, clean, dog friendly… really looking forward to returning.

Nice clean pub, good variety of food. Friendly staff

Great menu Great home cooked food.Puddings yummy.

We ate at the Britannia on Monday 2nd. (Quiz Night), We had Gammon, Scampi and Parmigiano. 2 x White wines, 2 x Morreti, 2 x Beers. The bill was for £80.35. The food was well cooked and presented, service was fine. We enjoyed our evening at the Britannia. ——. Paul Reynolds

What a difference since the pub has been taken, the food and service are fabulous. Good size portions of food with lots of choice and happy to do a small portion if they can. Great service, have to say I couldn’t fault it and will be back for a big family do in a few weeks time.

Wonderful food - great atmosphere - friendly welcome - very responsive staff - and it's dog friendly! 10/10 will definitely be back.

Came across The Britannia purely by chance & will definitely be heading back again. Dog friendly with water & treats ☺️. Food was delicious & really lovely owner & staff … a 5 star lunch & a 5 star location too.

Amazing Sunday Dinner we had today with family would totally recommend it and will definitely be going again very soon 👍

The food was lovely my partner had the steak I had the burger the only reason I only give it 4 stars is I had the Eaton mess pudding wasn't to my taste too sweet but everything else was lovely

Second time at this lovely pub. This place does pub grub at gold standard. Portions= incredible. Flavour= sensational. Slowly working my way through the menu

Our fist visit since the pub management changed hands, and we had a lovely meal. The food was beautifully cooked and presented, and tasted delicious, including my vegetarian meal. Staff were friendly and helpful and the pub had a relaxed atmosphere. We thought it was good value for money and we'll definitely return. We had a starter and mains, and the portions were so generous that we sadly had no room for one of the tempting desserts! Definitely worth a visit.

We said we would be back following our visit last bank holiday and we were not disappointed. Same good food, amazing menu and good service from a friendly young team. Fish and chips were excellent as was the chicken curry. The pan fried sea bass was a delicious fusion of flavours that is indescribable. Another super evening at the Britannia. Very good value for money too.

The food is prepared and cooked to an excellent standard. A very good menu choice with good portions. Kids menu equally as good. Sat in the garden and had a very relaxed lunch. Very good value. Excellent service.

Great pub in Queniborough. Not too far from Leicester City. Great food, recommend their Fish and Chips and Desserts!

Lovely location. Excellent food Great service from the lovely young waitress
