The Britannia in Charnwood

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 😀

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 👍

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

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!!

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

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!!

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

Passing through and popped in for dinner. Had a fantastic meal that was very good value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Shame we don’t live in the area!

Credits to the chef, food was amazing

A lovely gem in queniborough.. Very warm, friendly and high quality pub food. Huge portions with varied menu, scrumptious food. Quick service.

Visited today for a corporate lunch. Amazing food, so lovely presented. Our first visit and will definitely return

I am a vegetarian, allergic to aubergine, never helpful for a pub! The veggie food had aubergine in so I was left to decide on a burger or pizza but this not really what I wanted. I mentioned to the staff about the aubergine and they were lovely, they asked the chef if there was anything that could be done (without me asking them to). the chef said he could make a curry with not a sight of aubergine, it was delicious. Then we had coffee - decaf? yes, non dairy milk? yes - I have heard really good reports about the food and didn't want my visit to be a negative even though my limited foods I can eat. The staff, the chef could not have been more helpful, they made the evening fab so I could enjoy this with my friends AND enjoy great food, definitely be back, especially if there is veggie and no aubergine food on the menu!

Omg just found this place middle of nowhere after been kicked off from 3 place as they not serving food tuesday .. THANKS GOD otherwise I miss thus place one of the best place Ive evr eat .. Lovely and professional service , outstanding food and menu with an experienced amazing chef as well !! Thank u guys Ill be back !!!

Good quality, good price, good service

An excellent quality Sunday lunch, great food, good selection of beers, reasonable prices

Family lunch trip and food was delicious, portion sizes, especially for the kids really generous! First visit back for a while and a definite step up in quality imo

Dropped in for a spot of lunch today with my better half. She had pizza and I had fish and chips. Excellent service and food. Will visit again soon. Cheers

Went here in a Friday evening with friends. My friend recommended as she knew the chef that was working here. I had the lamb shank biryani which was tender and flavoursome. My friend also had the biryani, one had the seafood chowder and one had prawn Thai curry. We were all pleased with the food and serve.

Had a lovely meal, starter & main, only problem was the main came out soon as we had finished our starter, so couldn’t enjoy it as much. So some was left as to full. But overall very nice food.

Superb food, highly recommended a visit. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Parking at the front can be taken up quickly but there is parking to the rear

Very quiet on a Sunday Evening booked as it was a birthday celebration, bonus there was a singer on, but they ended up taking it outside.

We ate at the Britannia on Sat 04//05. We both had prawn starters, Fish and Lasagne Mains, Two beers and Two large white wines, all the food was well cooked and presented, the servings were very generous, Service was fine, efficient without being rushed, The bill was for £80. Highly recommended,

Well just been to this place for a Sunday dinner service was really good food was great probably the best Sunday dinner I’ve ever had didn’t have the colyflower cheese cause I don’t like it so can’t comment on that but brilliant will definitely go again

It was card payment only which could put some people off, but for the quality and reasonably price food, we would highly likely return.

If you want a country pub with amazing,home cooked and fresh food then this is the place. The owner is very accommodating to all and it is even better to see a great pub back in Queniborough again Well done Kam and team

Nice little dog friendly bar and great outside space.

Booked a table last night, 4th April. Staff all very attentive without being overbearing, lovely restaurant and the food was amazing. We both ordered the Sirloin steak with all the trimmings and it was amazing, everything was cooked to perfection and extremely well presented, after a break between course we ordered desert, apple crumble with custard and chocolate brownie, again really lovely and well presented. A good selection of drinks on offer too, lovely draught Timothy Taylors. It was our first visit, but it won't be our last. I believe new owners took on The Brittania late last year and I'd like to wish them every success.

Me and my husband went there for lunch and we absolutely loved the food starters mains and desserts all absolutely lovely big potions as well and all freshly made staff were really friendly and helpful lovely atmosphere best pub food we have ever had

This was our first visit and will not be the last !! We were greeted by friendly staff and were made to feel welcome. The menu was amazing and we were spoilt for choice. We decided on belly of pork, fish and chips and the special of chorizo and beef lasagne. We all said it was one of the best meals and found room for deserts which were equally delicious. Service was excellent…the staff were all very professional. We had a great family dinner out.

Wow, what great food. All freshly prepared. Friendly staff. Highly recommended

Enjoyed a lunch with friends. Food was good, service was good. Menu was very varied, something for everyone. If you've not tried it please do, evening or lunch. Go with friends.

The food was amazing. The gammon steak was a good size and very tasty, it came with pineapple and the most amazing egg, which was in a batter. Congratulations to the chef. An Excellence is well deserved.

Family birthday party for 19 people, many different meals selected, all of them quality and hot, all 19 of them provided at the same time.

Used to come here alot, and stopped, as it was going down hill. Visited on Sunday for the first time in a year. Food was great, lovely staff. The only negative was the fact it took nearly a hour to receive our mains, but it was busy. Will definitely be going back!

We both had a lovely & so tasty meal at The Brittania Pub, not been for agood while so thought we would try it again after the lovely reviews on fb. We were not disappointed, staff lovely & very helpful & could not do enough to help & advise on menus & ingredients etc. I had the curry of the day & hubby had the sea bass. Both were beautifully presented & they both tasted amazing. We will definitely be going back to try & taste more of there lovely food . We finished off by sharing a sticky toffee pudding & it was the best we have had by far. Well done to you all. 😃5*+ deserved.

Amazing choice of excellent food. Very well presented too

Excellent good and lovely staff.

Our first trip with the new owners but it won’t be our last! We had amazing food, service and the most friendly atmosphere this evening. The Valentines set menu was absolutely delicious 🤤 and my hubby is now a tofu convert! All hot, flavoursome, beautifully prepared and presented food (well done Chef) was delivered by the awesome table staff Ellie, Jess and Rhona. Great value for money. Well done to the whole team. We enjoyed the laughs too……SERVICE 🤩👏🏻

Set 5 course menue for valentine's night. Fantastic. Great friendly service in a lovely place.

It was our first visit to the Britannia but it was well worth it. Everything was good. Food, presentation, friendly staff and atmosphere. It was quiet as we visited on a Tuesday in February. We were specially pleased, as was the Chef, when we asked for a vegetarian curry as it was a meat curry on the menu. We've only had that once before but it makes it much easier to want to go again. One up for the Chef!!

Visited last night for the first time ever. The restaurant was very warm and inviting, was seated promptly, service was good and was well taken care of. Food was delicious , lovely and fresh. Chicken was juicy and well flavoured along with the mash and vegetables! Wine was a good quality at a very reasonable price. The only slight criticism I can give and this is in no reflection at all on the food or service. We ordered a sticky toffee pudding in which was very nice and the cream served with it was lovely…… but it wasn’t really a traditional sticky toffee pudding, it was far too sweet and lacked the date flavour a sticky toffee has, more along the lines of a syrup sponge perhaps. Again it was nice just not what I would expect from a sticky toffee. Overall it was a really good experience, one I will be telling everyone about and very eager to go back to explore the menu and obviously try the curry! Will be returning 😊

Welcoming.. food we had was very good came out hot and plate was full ..had a really nice ale on which I love .. would definitely recommend

Lovely pub with extensive choice on menu Great size portions and good value

Just visited for food with my girlfriend, not been here for about 4 years. What a great pub, this is definitely a new favourite. Had the porchetta roast and a brownie to follow. They catered for my girlfriend’s awkward food allergy too. Very nice indeed. Bups, the new landlord is a top bloke too. Fantastic atmosphere. Well worth a visit!

Curry Night, Food was amazing, good value, staff were attentive, would definitely go back, would recommend to family and friends.

Really enjoyed the Sunday lunch here. Service was disappointing on entry. Being left by 2 unbusy barmaids to flounder whilst the over rushed waiter tried to get us a table. Overall service was really good by one individual in particular, shame they were so busy whilst some others didn’t seem so busy ! The food was all in all nice, not 5 star but definitely a solid dish. Would recommend.

5 of us went to eat on a Sunday, we had porchetta, chicken supreme, and the curry of the day red Thai chicken curry. All were excellent and reccomended by each diner For pudding, sticky toffee, crumble and brownie again all really good. A really warm welcome and enthusiastic servers. Well reccomended. If you've read Sheila's review below I would like to share some insight. 1 out of the 7 mains for Sunday had a spice, and that was "mild" that was the thai red curry. 4/7 puddings had cinnamon which is an extremely rare allergen (not top 13) 😉

This pub has been through several changes of ownership since it's heyday with generally disappointing results. It was great therefore to find it busy and back to something like it's old self. Service was friendly and efficient and food and drinks great. Welcome back The Brittania. We will be back!

Food was delicious and staff were friendly & accommodating. Nice variety on the main & kids menu. I had a steak which was really tasty and cooked well. Really enjoyed our evening at the Brit!
