Met friends for lunch. Good menu choice, excellent surroundings, don't be put off by external look. Service was slightly slow.

A lovely place to visit weather for a good choice of drinks or a meal , you will not be disappointed

Just popped in for a bite to eat and a drink in the garden, a lovely visit once again thanks all.

Came here for something to eat , fantastic atmosphere, food was good and excellent service

Been coming for years, Paul,Becca and the team always look after me. Great food all the time. Such a lovely place

Always love coming here for drinks, and food for that matter. Lovely attentive service and great selection. Liv looked after us, she was very polite and friendly. An asset to the team. Will 100% be coming back again and again.

Been for breakfast with family and friends and had excellent service from Caroline

Stopped by for a quick brunch whilst in the area for a business, having visited up from Bournemouth. Would highly recommend, due to a superb service from Caroline and her team!

Really lovely pub. Great atmosphere and nice restaurant. Lovely friendly staff and great service always. Always greeted with a smile and served attentively. Shout outs to Zac for serving food brilliantly, always with a smile and for friendly smiling service from Liv.

Come here quite a lot for family meals and never had a bad meal ever! Service is always the best, very friendly team. The location is gorgeous and love sitting in the garden area when the weather is a lot nicer. Been coming here for years and never had a bad word to say about the place! 10/10 from me and my family!

Absolutely fantastic stay! From the moment we arrived, the warmth of the staff at The castle was evident. Check-in was easy, and our room was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and with all the amenities you could need. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a perfect night's sleep. The pub itself is a true gem. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, with a great selection of beers and spirits. The food was exceptional – hearty and delicious We enjoyed a fantastic dinner and a delightful breakfast the next morning. What truly sets this place apart is the genuine hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable especially Becca who was very polite during check in and made sure that we had a fantastic time throughout. The location is also perfect. We can't recommend The castle highly enough. It's the perfect combination of a traditional pub and a comfortable, high-quality hotel. We'll definitely be back!

Great service. Great food. Olivia was very attentive and made sure I had a great stay and looked after me amazingly. This pub and hotel is such a perfect place to unwind after a busy few days with work. Wish I lived closer so Im able to visit more often but will definitely be back

Sunday lunch today was great! Olivia looked after us again, she was friendly and efficient and made us feel so welcome as always! Food again was delicious!

What a lovely little hotel! Came up from Windsor to meet up with family from Sheffield on 20/02. Beautiful and much bigger dining area than expected. We had a very hearty and delicious lunch, catering well for meat eaters to vegans. Staff were all very friendly and attentive. We also stayed the night in a lovely, modern, clean small double room overlooking the remarkable Kirby Muxloe Castle - such a unique view! Loved the shower and comfy bed. Would recommend & return here.

I would not eat anywhere else. The Castle is the very best venue for myself, my family & friends. Here the staff look after their visitors!!

Great quick visit today for a coffee and a sandwich, lovely atmosphere once again! Thanks Rebecca and Olivia for looking after us!

Tavis was excellent. Could not do enough for us and service was excellent. Food was great.

Lovely meal friendly and efficient staff!

Thank you Caroline & Pam You make this hotel my home. I will be back again; again...

Fantastic support from both Pamela and Carolene! Very friendly atmosphere. Rooms always very clean, with everything you need!

Wonderful clean hotel, friendly staff & excellent breakfast. A family group stayed overnight and we couldn’t have been accommodated better. We had a large group for brunch, and Pam, Caroline and Lisa couldn’t do enough for us. Food was fresh, hot and plentiful. Would recommend & will visit again.

Pam, Caroline and Lisa made our extended family breakfast gathering a real joy. They were thoughtful, attentive and the breakfast was delicious. It all came quickly and the service was just lovely. The rooms were also good. Good size room, comfy bed, great size bathroom and all clean and nice touches like toiletries and a good selection of teas and coffees. Thank you.

Had,a lovely family meal there food waS lovely and great service too x

Me and my father dined at the castle hotel for breakfast. It’s our usual meet to spot where we have a catch up and what place other then the castle could we go. It’s so very warm and welcoming amd we always like to sit by the freshly lit fire. The staff are always very welcoming, friendly and accommodating. Yesterday Pamela served us. We had some lovey chats and giggles and were very pleased with the service. Not to mention the food which is always sensational. We will be returning very soon

Met a friend for coffee, lovely warm environment and friendly atmosphere and staff..

Friendly staff, 4 friends out for lunch Enjoyed ourselves and the meal came in a good time, Only criticism was the pies were over baked, we could still eat them but they were hard pastry wise. We have had them before and they were better, its just one of those things, we were asked how the meals were and we said everything is fine so it wasn't the servers fault. Normally we have no issues with food or anything else. I would recommend this restaurant anytime.

Been coming here for years from bar staff to front of house the service is excellent lovely atmosphere always busy food delicious breakfast is again excellent great value for money and a lovely surprise being upgraded to superior room was a added plus room size is great very warm and welcoming Will definitely be back

Nice clean warm pub with friendly and helpful staff serving excellent quality food at very affordable prices 🙂

Great service, room, breakfast and location by the team and especially Caroline, will certainly be coming back

Comfortable rooms, great service especially from Pam and Caroleine, evening menu excellent and reasonably priced

Fantastic meal today. Wonderful service by Caroline. Relaxing atmosphere, attentive and friendly service. Well worth a visit and some fantastic deals until the end of the month!

We had a working breakfast meeting, it was lovely service, the table was put out of the way from other guests as requested and we ate from the breakfast menu which my colleague was pleased with as it had vegan options to accommodate her dietary requirements.

We were a group of twelve for lunch, the service was very slow and the food, across a wide range of dishes, was universally reported as being poor quality. The servers were pleasant, and the place was clean and welcoming. The problem seems to lie with the kitchen.

Very nice environment. Thoughtful attentive staff. Lovely brunch. Treated our dog like a king!

Had a great breakfast through the All Trails Breakfast after a walk on a Sunday morning and was served by Becca.

We visited after using the all trails breakfast deal. Becca was wonderful!! We will definitely be back!

Overnight stay on way to London , from the minute we walked in we knew we had discovered a little Gem , greeted by the manager who was excellent . We had two rooms both were amazing , well equipped and extremely warm clean and comfortable. We opted to eat in the restaurant , the food surroundings and service were amazing thanks to Zach and Tej for your service . Highly recommend this lovely place We have just enjoyed a first class breakfast overlooking a beautiful garden We will definitely be back

Boxing Day food and drinks with family after a Boxing Day walk. 7 adults 2 kids (aged 6) Food was decent pub grub, service was excellent, a little pricey but a very well run pub

Lovely pub very nicely decorated very friendly staff but unfortunately my meal was dreadful. I chose the Trio of Seafood, grilled Salmon which was not grilled probably oven baked. Halibut fillet which was undercooked.The Tiger Prawns were okay but not very hot. Hasselback potatoes which should be oven baked these may have been but not crispy but very dry the Brussel sprouts were soggy and very watery were supposed to be roasted but definitely weren’t and no Samphire at all which was on the list. The waitresses offered no comment or apology just asked is I wanted another one which I declined. Not sure if this qualifies for trade description act??

A++++++++ We've been here many times and this year my family booked Christmas Lunch here and it was great. Great service, not too fussy and very fast. Hot fast and very very tasty. Turkey dinner we all agreed was the best we had. Really nice setting too. Will be booking again for next year.

A great stay - cannot fault the rooms - restraunt- service particularly Caroline. Couldn't do enough to ensure our pleasure - happy to return - soon

Had a few drinks and some dinner. Food was lovely and the atmosphere great.

Very Friendly Team, Attentive and Probably the best night's sleep I've had in a long time!

The food is amazing the rooms are on point the staff can’t do enough for you Caroline makes sure I always have breakfast to take away staying in the castle is like a home from home experience

Love this place,love coming back

Always a warm welcome at The Castle Regularly stay at here for work. As well as a good location for me the main reason is the lovely service from Caroline and the team who go out of their way to make my stay extremely comfortable. Quaint, cosy rooms with good showers, a very welcoming bar and restaurant with delicious specials. Breakfast is particularly brilliant, lots of cooked options made to order and really good coffee! The outside area is pretty with a large patio and lots outdoor tables overlooking castle ruins. A perfect stay.

Very nice pub, good food, super friendly staff, plenty of parking, walking distance to the castle.

Went for lunch here, so cannot comment on the rooms or location. The food and service was really good and a lovely atmosphere for a Friday lunch time. Definitely will be back.

Update : We stopped coming a couple of years ago as the quality dropped. Went again today and it was worse, so won't be going again. The staff are still nice but the food isn't. My dish was smaller and overcooked, my beer was warm (can of Guinness), the other meals were mediocre. Nothing was bad bad but we are paying for a better than "spoons" experience. Shame as we really liked the place. Old review : Lovely place with super friendly staff. Food is always good and there is plenty of park at the back.

As a New Zealander working abroad, I’ve yet to come across a hotel which encapsulates a feeling of class, comfort, and homeliness until now! The warmth that this hotel brings was second to none! You’ve got to either dine in, drop by for a drink, or stay the night if you are visiting Leicester!

Morning coffee served by the beautiful Caroline in the gorgeous gardens 😍

The food and service here is amazing! We were greeted by staff with a smile and nothing was too much trouble for anyone! Olivia served us throughout the night and the dishes recommended to us by her were delicious! Such a lovely place to visit.

Love this hotel, everyone makes you feel so welcome especially Becca, Paul, Pam. Food excellent and plentiful. Rooms clean, modern, comfortable and the little added extras make your stay feel very special. Even has decent sized cups! All this and a wonderful moted castle within walking distance.

Fantastic brunch this morning, service from Olivia and Caroline was brilliant too!

Went here Saturday, good day out, served by friendly bar staff (Josh) Great service from a manager called Steve aswell

Service from Liv was great. She was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely place to visit! Will definitely be returning!

Had a smashing breakfast at there. i was meeting some colleagues after a drive up form the capital city. Lovely, warm, friendly staff and the breakfast was truly exceptional. Would love to come and stay as the hotel is in a lovely quiet location with easy access to the M1. Highly recomended.

Great rooms (although tiny) Great food for breakfast & dinner

What a lovely breakfast. Caroline is an amazing host - Thankyou for looking after us 😁

Amazing breakfast from , Pam and Caroline Great service, great food Idea place for a business breakfast meeting 5 Star Many thanks Paul , Dave and Karl County contractors

Came in for a meal and was looked after by becca and Liv, had the duck pie off the autumn specials was delicious

Good Hotel. Very friendly and helpful employees. Great breakfast. We were very satisfied and will definitely go back! Thanks Pam and Caroline.

It's always nice to come here. I experience a cozy atmosphere. Thank you especially for the friendly service from Caroline and Olivia.

Great place to visit, sat in the garden and could see they’re having work done out there! Looking forward to seeing it once it’s all done, was served by Olivia, who was a delight!

Brilliant food and service !!!!

Excellent food and excellent service

Lovely food and fabulous service by Lauren and Sarah today. Definitely will be coming back soon!

Came in for a lovely lunch today, had Bangers & Mash. Was served by a young lady called Lauren who was very polite & nothing was too much trouble, made our lunch a very enjoyable one 👍🏻

We visit the castle a lot as it is our local and very friendly with great food and drink options. We had a lovely family meal on a Friday and Zach served us. He was so helpful and very attentive to all of us, replacing my drink without bother when it didn’t taste right! Nothing was too much trouble! Thank you Zach! :)

After a looooong night shift I was looking for somewhere to stop for breakfast. My GF sent me the postcode to The Castle saying it looked like it did breakfast. I parked up, went in, asked about breakfast and although I wasn't a guest they were kind enough to seat me for breakfast and what a result The food and drinks were absolutely spot on and the staff were so down to earth, polite, welcoming and funny The two members at work couldn't do enough for me. Pam and Steve are an absolute credit to this hotel and if I'm ever back this way will 100% return Highly recommended Paul

This was a last minute booking for myself and my partner and we were so pleased we decided to come here. Steve, the Duty Manager, greeted us warmly and was extremely helpful. We had managed to book the last available room and it was amazing. Very clean, with a large king size bed and a very large ensuite. We had booked an evening meal and were definitely not disappointed. The menu was varied and very good value for money. Tavis, our server was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The hotel is literally next to a moated castle and we enjoyed a lovely walk around the moat in the morning. We had booked breakfast and that certainly didn't disappoint. Pam was very helpful and informative, making us feel very welcome. We loved this hotel and would certainly go back if in the area again.

I come every week and always feel so welcome, I've been on holiday for 2 weeks and I come back to a welcome message saying welcome back , we hope you had a lovely time from becca, and Pam looked after me on breakfast! Thank you

Really enjoyed our stay at the hotel and food in the restaurant. All staff have been very friendly, attentive and helpful. Room was quiet and had everything we needed. Nice to have iron and board without having to request it. Lots of additional touches. Welcome tray with a lovely, personal message and as we would call it, ‘posh’ biscuits and drinks options with additional thought of the option of fresh milk for drinks if wanted- a little milk urn to be filled upon request and keep the milk cool! Breakfast was excellent value, again with attentive, friendly staff. Would recommend and stay again!

Great breakfast and good service from Pam 👍🏻

Great friendly service my waitress was very helpful with helping me decide what to order.it was my forat time there and will defo return.food was delish and guiness was one the best i have had lately.

As we’re local to the hotel we only came for food, restaurant, bar and terrace are lovely settings. Service was impeccable by all staff we dealt with, but ISOBEL in particular went above and beyond, and she is a credit to The Castle @ Kirby Muxloe

Lovely room and friendly staff. Caroline looked after us well at breakfast with an extra touch for our wedding anniversary

We had the rosemary white chocolate tart & the apple tart, both desserts were lovely and the addition of ice cream on top really made them great. Our server Steve was great and provided lovely service. Will be coming again.

Always a great experience whether popping in for an early dinner with the kids, celebrating an occasion or just meeting a friend for drinks. Always lovely food, nice atmosphere, brilliant service from Steff and the Team!

We came for food, and was made to feel very welcome by all the Lovely staff. We were served by Izzy V, who was very chatty young lady and knew alot about the food being served. The food was very good, and then we went to sit in the Garden Patio area which was really nice end to the day. We will be back again soon.

Came back again and sat in the garden to enjoy the sun and have a drink. We were served by Liv who was very friendly when serving us. Didn’t have food this time but still one of our favourite places to come!

Came to get a drink today in the beer garden. Was served by Liv, who was very polite and helpful. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Great night, atmosphere, service and food all perfect. Special thanks to our waitress Liv. Highly recommend!

Really lovely pub, lovely atmosphere, such good cocktails (English Garden) made by Sara and lovely service from Jack and Steve. Will definitely return again with my family!

Had a lovely family meal Steve was a delight

Wonderful food, I had the steak and ale pie which was great value at £16. However, the highlight of the meal was our wonderful server, Steve. He was very enthusiastic and welcoming, we felt at home :)

Lovely place, all the staff was great, food amazing, our room was tiny but was beautiful and clean , definitely will stay again , thank you to all the staff there x

Friendly and good quick service

Thanks to Steff we had a lovely lunch at the Castle in Kirby Muxloe. Excellent service. Thank you Steff 😊

We meet up once a month for the breakfast club, and this month's venue was the Castle inn. The breakfast was lovely and the service was excellent.

This is one of our local pubs in the village and we come for food here very regularly. On this occasion there was a group of eight of us having dinner on a Saturday night as a catch up. Food menu is great and we were served by Ellie, who was attentive, friendly, explained the menu to us, as it had changed and recommended some dishes too. Great service, thanks Ellie for your help!
