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!

We came here for my mum’s celebration of life on Saturday, and they couldn’t have been more helpful. There was a screen to show photos and we could connect our own music. Loved the buffet lunch, with guests commenting on the quality of the food. Thank you so much for making it so easy and comfortable for us.

From the second you walk through the door, you're greeted with warmth and smiles. The service is flawless with attention to detail, such as any intolerances and allergies, to smiles and politeness. Then there's the food, which itself is some of the best food eaten out in years. Throughly recommend their Sunday roasts and the Sunday Roast Burger.

Visited this pub a few times now for a sunday roast. The food is delicious and we always leave feeling stuffed. The home made desserts are also amazing and the restaurant even offer gluten free options.

Stopped here en route and it is a lovely pub. Small car park at the rear. We both had toasties and they were plentiful and tasty. The service was attentive from the moment we walked in. The pub is dog and family friendly, it's a lovely stop.

Lovely pub. Drinks are cheaper than in Harborough and it's been finished off really well inside. Would love a little more attention to be paid to outside though as the swings aren't really fit for use (lots of dirt on them), which was a shame for my nephew. Can't comment on the food in terms of taste but it looks fantastic when brought out to others.

We came for dinner on Christmas Day and it was absolutely brilliant! There were 10 of us and we each had small stockings with our names embroidered on as place settings, a Christmas cocktail on arrival, and all of the food was amazing! 3 courses of delicious food with pallet cleansers and Christmas cake and coffee after dessert. Myself and one other at our table are vegan, and our courses were all delicious, the vegan Christmas roast was amazing! The staff were so welcoming and helpful, always on hand and really friendly, couldn’t have asked for more! The 3 ladies that have taken over have done a fantastic job, everything was perfect! Thank you for making our Christmas so lovely, Imogen x

The building is lovely, the food was great. There's just a few very basic elements that were lacking. We asked what the vegetarian option of the day was, to be told "I don't know, I don't think we've ever had one". Don't put it on the menu if it doesn't exist! Staff also didn't know what the cheesecake of the day was. A quick 5 minute briefing at the start written on a notepad makes the waiting staff so much quicker. One major slip up was with the Mars Brownie dessert, and accounts for a full star on the review. The dessert was great and the brownie one of the best I've had, but no where did the menu state the ice cream would include nuts - we figured it'd be Mars ice cream or something, but perhaps they had ran out? Fantastic food, lovely place, would go again, but make sure you highlight any allergies before you order.

Visited a couple of months back, after wanting to try this place for a while so decided to treat mum to sunday lunch. We were given the menus and immediately noticed that you could have one or two of the meats but not all three, a bit odd. There was also a vegan option but no vegetarian option so we asked the waitress for a vegetarian Sunday lunch (neither of us are big meat eaters). Waitress went off to check and came back to advise it wasn't possible. I questioned how is it not possible??? Just don't add the meat to the plate, simple! As it happened, the Sunday roast was pretty good but let down by the fact we felt forced to eat the meat on the plate.

Another really nice Country pub with a lovely restaurant,not cheap but good quality food. The drinks are at City prices the staff are attentive and friendly. On a Sunday evening many other places were closing the kitchen between 1700-1800 they serve food until 2100. When they are busy it does take time however the ambiance of the place makes up the seating is comfortable and the decor relaxing. We really enjoyed our visit.

Seemed like a nice place to go and eat on a weekend afternoon.... wish I had went somewhere else. Firstly when we arrived we were looked at as if people had not seen a Black or Asian person before, it was very uncomfortable. The manager actually sighed when we walked in. Then came the food we ordered a platter which said 4 various meats from the smoker. We were given 3 different kinds of meat very dry brisket, pork ribs and wings that looked like they were coated in ketchup. Then we had the manager sit at a table near us and speak extremely loudly on his phone whilst we were eating. Next thing you know we get home and have food poisoning that night. Definitely not a great experience at all, won't be going back and I definitely do not recommend.

Waiting almost an hour for burger and chips was frustrating, but it was made much worse by the attitude of the owner. He is just plain rude. I got poured a flat pint and asked for a head on it, his attitude stank. In all fairness the food was really nice when it arrived.

Seven of us booked in for a family pre xmas lunch, first impressions count and we found it to be a warm, welcoming and friendly pub. The Everards beer was good and the lunch was excellent. We had a great bottle of Italian merlot on the recommendation of the owner/ manager Adam. He and his staff made us welcome and his friendly manner made for a great atmosphere. I will go back next time I am in the area.

I written this with a heavy heart and empty stomach, I placed an order over an hour ago, the wrong order was given to the delivery driver and I received food neither of us could eat. Having contacted them I was told it was still their.having contacted deliveroo it then took them over 30 mind to accept the replacrment order. I am unhappy and sadly doubt I will be using their services after this fiasco. EDIT food finally arrived, OMG I can't belive they can dish out this calibre of food and not get shut down. It was the worst meal we have ever had in our lives and that takes some beating. I strongly recommend that you stay away from this place, especially for food its ghastly.

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!

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.
