Great place for families in the good weather. Outside garden with play structure allows the grown-ups to relax and enjoy.

We did a ‘pop up’ at this lovely pub with our Jamaican Food Truck. Great, friendly pub, 2 gardens, with one for families and the other for adults - what a fab idea! As well as ample bar space they also have smaller areas which are great for a group of friends. Karen and Phil who run the establishment are so welcoming and the pub has a great atmosphere. We sold out of food and we look forward to returning. One love Nally’s Jamaican Jerk and Grill ❤️🇯🇲

Food was a bit tasteless - even the chips were meh! Only had 2 soft drinks and 2 small mains and charged £31, so not cheap. Staff were lovely though - really happy and helpful. The building was interesting.

Stopped by yesterday on our way home and the pub and garden was so busy but fair play, we found a bench and didn’t have to wait too long for food and delighted to report that both the meal and service was excellent. Absolutely delicious chicken kiev. Very reasonably priced too. Highly recommended 👍

What an incredible pub ! Came here after a long bike ride and what an amazing pub it was. Really nice inside with old beams and low ceilings on one side. But on the other side a more spacious area with 2 large pub gardens. Food is very well valued as well. £12.50 for a huge burger is a bargain ! And so tasty !! Great drink selection as well. Would highly recommend!

I was situated in the childrens play area. Okay lovely weather with many children, this I don't mind but several adults smoking in front of the children wasn't very healthy. You could smell the aroma at least 20 metres away. It took me and other patrons 20-25 mins to be served. A bigger pub needed.

Terrrible. Never felt so unwelcome in my life. A hot Sunday and we tried to order a bowl of chips and a drink and told you can only have Sunday roast dinner. Then was to rudely told to leave the garden as we had our 5 year old child with us (although she was sat silently at the table). When we said we were going the rude waitress said ‘good’. Never experienced such rude service

Had a Sunday dinner today as a vegetarian. The roast potatoes were definitely cooked I'm the lamb fat as I could taste it, when asked they said it was vegetable oil. My partner even said it tasted like meat juice.No gravy but a lumpy white bland sauce with mushroom. The brocoli and carrots were rock hard.. really disappointed and won't come again.

Myself and my family had Sunday lunch here today. We all found the roast dinners to be large, tasty and value for money. The puddings were lush too .I'd highly recommend, it was well worth the hours drive to get there. I'd been there before for Sunday lunch and wanted my family to share the experience. I'm so glad it was just as good as the first time.

A traditional pub selling good, well kept ales, a range of largers alongside decent food. Wednesday night is pizza and a pint which is worthy fair. The pizzas are wood fired, good value at a tenner with a good range of options. There is an adult only beer garden which one day I’ll get to experience; it looks like sanctuary. On the other hand if you have kids there is also a child friendly area complete with well kept play equipment.

Really frosty reception towards dark people. Asked had we booked a table as Covid rules dictated. No one else got asked. We were the only ones to wear a masks too whilst entering and ordering! But dont like immigrants. Got speaking to another chap and I asked him did you book? He said no we just came no such questions were asked of us. He even joked its probably cause your black! But that was more the truth than the joke! Your response is totally the falsehood. I am getting a person independant who I met and witnessed this to reply. Colouerd people get a cold and forsty resction the only malicious comment is yours, I see the BNP and Brexit is the highest in Market Harbrough!

Stayed here overnight, the room was beautiful and spotless ditto bathroom. We opted to eat in the restaurant and the food was delicious and plentiful, it’s probably the best vegetarian lasagne I’ve eaten, there was a good choice for vegetarians , my husband really enjoyed the gammon. We were both so full we couldn’t manage a pudding. The bar was really busy but we couldn’t hear a word from our room. I slept for nearly 9 hours which is rare for me. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, they are certainly an asset to the business that’s for certain. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

A group of 12 of us had Sunday lunch at The Coach & Horses today, we had guests from New Zealand so wanted a nice cosy pub with a good reputation for food - Steph and her team did not let us down! The food was delicious - our choices included the roast pork, beef and chicken and everyone really enjoyed their meal. Service was excellent and the staff are so friendly and helpful. We'll definitely eat there again, so impressed!

An Absolute Gem in the Heart of the Countryside! I’m not from around the area, but during my stay, I found myself coming back to The Staff of Life Pub every single day—and with good reason! The food here is simply out of this world. From the mouth-watering tapas, which were a delightful mix of flavors and textures, to the traditional roast dinner that was as comforting as it was delicious, everything was cooked to perfection. And don’t even get me started on the apple pie—it’s truly to die for. Each bite was a slice of heaven, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Beyond the food, the ambience of the pub is fantastic. It has that perfect blend of warm, cozy, and welcoming, with a lively atmosphere that makes you feel at home, whether you're a regular or just passing through. The décor is charming, and the subtle lighting creates a wonderfully relaxed vibe. What really made my experience special was the incredible service, particularly from Sharon. She is such a gem—warm, attentive, and always ready with a smile. Sharon made sure that every visit was memorable and went out of her way to ensure everything was perfect. Whether you're local or just visiting, The Staff of Life is a must-visit. The food, the service, and the atmosphere are simply unbeatable. I’ll definitely be back!

Lovely pub with a nice atmosphere. Food & drinks very reasonable. Food very tasty, nice to find a pub with good wholesome food, and not a gastro-pub.
