The Harrow Inn in Charnwood

We headed here for our October SCC meet. Our first visit and hopefully not our last. The staff and service was really good and the food was as you would expect from a proper curry house. The spicing was perfect for us and the staff did check when we ordered as to how we wanted it. The mixed grill was exceptional!

Superb food, great atmosphere, brilliant staff ! We had a table of 12, drinks and poppadoms to start, we all ordered for the same time, food came out 30 minutes later, big portions, all very tasty, naan bread’s delicious, would definitely recommend and will definitely be visiting again ! Thanks to all the staff 👍

Fantastic food, big portions, had paneer methi with chilli naan, friendly staff, Milan was helpful, little gem in Thurmaston village with a large car park 👍😊

I ordered over the phone for collection, I had to wait over ten minutes from the time I was told to collect. I got home to realise my order was incorrect! I am unimpressed and annoyed and went back to the restaurant. Upon arrival I found a member of staff to help me, explaining my order is incorrect and I want a refund! He got interrupted who seemed to be the manager or the owner to serve another customer not realising his staff is dealing with a complaint! I was left waiting for few minutes until he completed taking the order from the other customer. He then asked te owner or the manager about it keeping me waiting longer. The manager or the owner said the order is ready. He has clearly not understood! Explained the order was wrong but he clearly failed to realise I have collected the order and come back as its wrong!! Poor service!

From the staff welcome to farewell.. The place is great! Such a nice family friendly place for food and drinks. I got recommended by a local visitor and every time I am in area it is a definite place to visit with friends for drinks and food

Birthday meal - food was absolutely delicious , staff are friendly and knowledgeable . Certainly will be going back in the future!

Gotta say some amazing Indian food, go try u won't be disappointed 😋

Just been for dinner at the Harrow. Fantastic place to eat. The food is really well prepared and the portions are very generous. We couldn’t actually finish what we had. The service was excellent with the staff being friendly and polite. The cost of the meal with drinks was very reasonable too. They even provided takeout cartons for our leftovers. I will definitely go again and would highly recommend the Harrow Inn.

Great food good atmosphere..dose get very busy on the weekend 😀

Brilliant food and service good too A misunderstanding was dealt with professionally and a new dish arrived in minutes. Very nice Indian food

Worst service ever…. They told to sit and wait.. we wait for half an hour and after that they just refuse to take order and told that they are closed

I went there , the food was very good but way to over priced , wouldn’t recommended for that reason , if the food was slightly less expensive , I would recommend to friends and family , thanks.

Fairly busy for midweek. Female staff member very attentive , great service. Food was very tasty and large portions.

This place has such amazing food, the lamb chops are excellent.as is the machusi.Saach is a great host and ramlal a great chef. Worth a visit

Excellent food everytime we go there. Highly recommend. 😃

Certainly shouldn’t be listed as a pub any more. There are no real ales/cask beers available at all, despite what it says on the outside of the building. This Indian restaurant food however was very nice & plentiful. After we had finished eating we sat at the table just talking. The staff were watching all the time, presumably hoping we would leave, or vacate the table, but no one actually came over to say anything to us whatsoever.

Oh My Word! To recommend this place is a dream, to the food and to the atmosphere and view is absolutely outstanding and out of this world, the staff are always polite and welcoming, the food is too stuff and couldn’t say one bad thing. Absolutely Brilliant this is! Come visit if you get the opportunity

First time here. Great food and service from Tee and the team.

Yvonne , sumit excellent service always good food

I recently visited The Harrow Inn. Unfortunately, it did not live up to expectations. The cocktails were a major let down—poorly mixed and not worth the money. They lacked the balance and quality one would expect, making for a disappointing experience. The food was passable, but given Leicester's vibrant dining scene, there are definitely better options available. It was neither memorable nor impressive, falling short of the standards set by other similar restaurants in Leicestershire. Customer service also left much to be desired, especially on a Monday evening. Our starters arrived before we were provided with any plates or cutlery. Surely, this is something fairly basic for any eatery. Overall, The Harrow Inn failed to deliver in key areas, making it a place I wouldn't recommend.

This place is my go to in Leicester. The food is fantastic, and so authentic! We always go as a family, as the pub is child friendly and can provide highchairs. The food and bar are paid for separately. Drinks are pricey compared to other Indian restaurants in Leicester, but we keep coming back for the food and the service.

Service rubbish manager very rude never going again

Great atmosphere, excellent food and beers on tap! all served by friendly staff.. We have found our New favourite Curry Night!

Very quiet when we went in mid Saturday afternoon. I had a curry which was one of the best I've ever tasted.

Just come back from the Harrow for Father's day curry. Hands down the best curry we have ever have. The food was fantastic so authentic. We go for curries a lot and this place is going to be our new place to eat. Definatley will be returning. 😋

Fantastic food! Big portions too. Helpful staff with lively atmosphere. Will be returning.

Tried about 10 dishes. Not the best Indian food so I wouldn’t go back, when compared to other restaurants. I think there was just hype around this restaurant because it’s newly opened. No dish stood out that would made me want to go back Service was poor, items were missing during mains, food was brought out before cutlery and plates. Food was presented well We had a separate room for our large group, we had to ask for tables to be cleared and waiters went missing for too long a time when we needed drinks etc. It has a separate bar but wasn’t always manned. When recycling empty bottles the barman would sling it into the bin causing clatter whilst we were talking. Lamb sheekh kebabs - ok Malai chicken - poor Wings - ok Lamb chops - good Lamb rogan Josh - poor 365 chicken lamb mix - ok/good Butter chicken -ok Nice outdoor seating

Really friendly service, very attentive and fast. Food was awesome as well, I recommend ordering the mogo.

Really enjoyable meal, great food & generous sized portions, very friendly service & nothing was too much trouble. Nice restaurant for atmosphere & layout...would definitely recommend. Thank you.

Attended a family birthday party on Saturday evening (1st June). Food was delicious, excellent service provided by management and staff. I will certainly be coming back again.

Absolutely banging food, great atmosphere and service. Heard good stuff about this place and now I know what the hype is about. Very relaxed and not rushed out the door. Only thing I would suggest is stock up on some straws as my mother has a disability and struggles to drink without a straw, but they could not give us a straw. Everything else was on point.

Absolutely delicious food, really friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere, very busy but still excellent service, highly recommended, we will definitely be visiting again!

Food was so lovely and big portions😋staff was so good and helpful 🙏🏻we tried non veg and veg dishes but they were so yummy😊

Excellent food and service to match.

BEST INDIAN RESTAURANT IN THE UK. lovely food, great atmosphere and top class service.

We got 2 cheese nan breads 1 chicken korma and chips for only £19, I really recommend it is dog friendly.Staff are really nice and the food is amazing as it served 3 of us for only £19.

Absolutely gorgeous food, fantastic service! Super value. Can not recommend this place enough!

Great and friendly service and good food.

First time, loved the food, loved the atmosphere, loved the service. Will definitely be back.

Management was very rude when there taking payment twice out of our account explain that this has happened Sachin the manager say were not a charity deal with it no help very rude my advice avoid that place

Visited this place for the first time with my family. We were very impressed with the service and the quality of the food was excellent will definitely be going back to eat.

Such a friendly and very tasty food

Good place to dinner with friends and family . Good food and service .

First time visiting the pub and restaurant and safe it say it was a delight. Friendly staff, service with a smile and super attentive, probably the best service in a Indian Bar and Grill in recent times. Parking available in good numbers directly outside. The menu is plenty with no dish tasting the same. Would definitely recommend and would visit again. Felt the prices were very reasonable for the size of the portions too! Just to note, drinks are paid separately to the food so do not be alarmed if you receive two bills at the end. Go try this place if you have considered it. Its also not very often I rate a place 5/5 so I will say it was well worth it.

Had my 60th Birthday party for 22 people. All my guests were well looked after by the friendly staff, the food and the service was excellent. I give it 100% and recommend this place.

Fab Curried Scrambled Eggs starter and Surf and Turf main good portions packed with flavour 👍😋😋

Excellent food & very friendly and helpful service. Very good value for money

A private party catered for as well or evening pub with food services as well And Indian curries and veg dishes

Tasty food, service a bit slow but otherwise superb

Excellent food and great value for money. We had a large family booking of 15 people. Brilliant service and very attentive staff. Thank you for a great evening!

Wouldn't be running back for a takeaway. On the order was Jeera Chicken Wings, we received tandoori wings, these were supposed to be for my 6 year old, therefore wanted something mild. The chips were drab, looked like they were cooked earlier in the day and just left. The hariyali chicken was pink inside. For curries, the Keema, Lamb, Chicken mix had no flavour to be honest, you could still taste that lamby taste, needed much more spices to get rid of that raw meat taste. Garlic chilli chicken was ok again needed more depth of flavour Ive had the Harrow Inn as a takeaway when it first opened and we really enjoyed it, but today was a big disappointment. The order was £55 which is alot for a take out, and disappointing that none of it tasted to the standards of their prices.

Delicious food, amazing portion sizes. Great service by all the team. Cannot knock this place ! Definitely recommend!

Oh, I know a fantastic pub with a kitchen that you'll love! The Blue Boar Inn in Thurmaston is a gem. The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food make it a top spot to hang out with friends or grab a tasty meal. Their menu offers a great variety of dishes, from classic pub grub to more gourmet options. Plus, they have a great selection of drinks to pair with your meal. Trust me, you won't be disappointed if you give The Blue Boar Inn a try! 🍻🍔

Disappointed with this place to dine out as BIG prices SMALL portions. We ordered a LARGE Boneless sizzler paying £18.50 but in fact looked like a small portion which was wrong. The price of drinks very very expensive like £5.50 for a pint of Gunness WOW and hardly any variety on bottled beer apart from Tusker. Place needs a full decor and proper comfortable seats, really needs alot doing inside. Summit did look after us after complaining about food portions so credit to him. Food OK but I will NOT be coming back in a hurry as other good places to eat around Leicester.

Food is very salty, inexperienced staff and decor has not been changed since it was a pub. Peeling wallpaper and damp on the ceiling and walls. Very poor experience.

Great food, space and atmosphere, definitely must try

Drinks were expensive but food great

First time visitor, all the starters that were ordered had the same sauce. The mains were bland which were left over hardly touched. Ended up paying for food that was not even worth paying for. Shall not be going back.

Very disappointed in the quality and quantity in the food. Do not order lamb on the bone, because you will just get bones. Customer service is not acceptable, not professional at all. Will not be going to this restaurant again.

1st time going here and here we go food is tasty portions do not equal the money charged, DO NOT order lamb on the bone all you will get is a bowl full of bones and curry, lamb curry is not lamb it's actually mutton, so it more fat than meat. Butter chicken is nice but 5 pieces of chicken and there was 6 of us. Staff are rude up themselves you have to chase them rather than them looking after you. We went in having a laugh and walked out angry and let down as food was tasty portions were ridiculously small and staff are letting the place down

An absolutely fantastic meal enjoyed by all the family. Friendly and efficient service from all the staff. We'll definitely be going back.

went with three other friends. nice place and all ok at start but started to feel rushed when plates being cleared when one of groop still eating and bill brought to table without us requesting it. then asked to vacate our table after 1hr 45 mins as another group waiting for our table and we could finish our drinks at a table near the bar. most places give u at least a 2 hour slot at a table but not this place. never been asked before to vacate a table within 2 hour. spoilt our mood and so disappointing

well what can i say. this is the first time in many years of going to the curry houses of leicestershire that we were asked to move from our table because they had another group waiting after an hour and three quarter! we booked at 7.30pm and intially all ok starters and main good . but the waiter starting picking up plates when one of our group of 4 was still eating and the bill was brought to us without us asking for it. felt a bit like we were being rushed and then the waiter came over at 9.15pm to say there was a group waiting for our table and we could finish our drinks at a table my the bar! talk about spoiling your customers mood. after 2 hours i get but 1.45 hours so wrong. wont be going back here again. plenty of other places that dont rush you like this place

Absolutely amazing. What can i say but a massive thank you to Amar, T and all the team. Looked after us all night. Food was the best i have had in a long long time. Cant recommend enough. Thank you Amar, will be definitely visiting you all again!

Excellent food quite busy as it was a Saturday night only issue raised was a dj turned up and it was extremely loud I did mention this to a member of staff who imformed me that they had other quieter rooms which was helpful for a return visit would highly recommend

Gluten free aloo curry was amazing .

First time here ‘ this how Indian food should be’ spot on best there is 👍👍

Wonderful restaurant to eat English and Indian food. The food and taste is awesome. Staff and service is vary good. You can eat authentic Indian food with proper taste. Good seating area with plenty of space, clinliness and hygienic food. Nice and beautiful atmosphere with extra seating arrangement.

I arranged a night for a long overdue gathering with cousins who travelled down from London and did this place deliver…..smashed it out of the park. Food, drinks, service, atmosphere and the vibes were all on point. The owner was welcoming and very tentative to us and as a looked around it was to all the tables he made himself available and welcoming and always on hand to recommend the right dishes. Spot on place will be going back very soon.

Seating: (on the benches) uncomfortable and sub standard. Fine for a drink, but not for food - you're practically lying down and far from the table to eat. Service: There were plenty of staff but waited 15 minutes before someone realised we'd finished starters. Then another waitress asked if we wanted to order mains when we already had. Food: decent and up to the standards of other Leicester gastro pubs. Drinks: expect to get served by some old guy with a cap and beard. Looks like a punter, doesn't even use a tray, instead gives your drinks one at a time. Most peculiar. Labels still on the steel cups for water. Atmosphere: I'm not sure what the 90s R'n'B tunes blaring out are all about, but otherwise, it was good. Lively, but you can talk ok without shouting too much. Parking: insufficient in the car park when I went (thur) but there's lots on the streets nearby. Would come again, but it won't be for a while. Look forward to seeing improvements with service in time or shall just revert to my usual decent places - Durham ox, wyvern, marten inn, etc.

Very good food for a great price and excellent friendly service, highly recommend!!! (Don't accept tips by card, will be taking extra cash next time as impressed with the food and service!)

Amazing nite for my husband's birthday meal couldn't have asked 4 more

Over priced food for pub service was bad

Food was great in particular the machazi and the garlic lamb (on the chefs special section). It was home style cooking and you could taste the flavours. Will be back it was busy for a Sunday night which is alway a good sign....

Ram and his team are brilliant. The food was great and I am just really pleased for Ram, his family and his team. This is a great place, food, music and service was brilliant. Well done all!

Lovely place to meet family and friends for food and drinks. Sat near the fire, which was lovely, and the staff helped recommend some delicious dishes. Would highly recommend.

Booked for NYE, all the food ordered was amazing, and the atmosphere was lively. DEFINITE RECOMMENDATION TO ALL for food and drinks. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Harrow Inn in Leicester, and it was an exceptional experience. The food served here is simply outstanding – fresh, flavorful, and truly a culinary delight. Amidst the bustling pub and curry spots, The Harrow Inn stands out for its spacious ambiance, allowing guests to dine in comfort.The attentive staff here elevate the dining experience to another level. Their exceptional service adds a personal touch, making every visit memorable. The food, though, is the true star of this establishment. The quality and taste surpass expectations, setting a new standard for excellence.For anyone seeking an extraordinary dining adventure, The Harrow Inn is an absolute must-visit. It's where exceptional taste meets impeccable service in a setting that exudes warmth and hospitality. This place indeed sets the bar high for delicious cuisine and top-notch service.

First time ive been there and it won't be the last ,Food was first class and staff very friendly .

Went for a meal on xmas eve, it was spot on. The Nepalese twist on the dishes was a lovely change to the majority of indian grill/pubs (not that they're bad at all) but alot of them can be similar. Staff were attentive and helpful and the food just speaks for itself. Highly recommend.....parkings not an issue either which is very convenient for a change.

Some of the best Indian food I've had. Service excellent. The staff are super friendly and happy to help. Place was busy but the atmosphere was great.

Great food. Service excellent. Will definitely go back.

Just opened around 8 week's ago. So we thought we would try it. Delicious food great service & atmosphere. This will be my goto restaurant from now on . Beats all the other Indian restaurants I have been to. Five stars ☆☆☆☆☆

Decent food, great atmosphere and service. Fair prices and portions were great. Best butter chicken in Leicester and worth a visit.

A welcome surprise, piping hot food, excellent staff and brilliant service. Thank you for a great evening.

We went there for our family Xmas Dinner .there was 25 of us we all got served together

Absolutely amazing food really tasty, great fresh taste, friendly and lovely service Definitely be returning

Good points - ample parking, welcoming atmosphere - large fire, bar staff attentive, clean. Could do better - time taken for food to arrive…. First time here. Arrived as a group of 3 at 7.15pm. Table booked was still being used so we were moved to a table near the fire which was a bonus. Cruzcampo on tap, went down well. Ordered 2 starters - crispy began (aubergine) - bit meh and crispy bhajia - much better. Also ordered from the curry club menu, where you get a curry, rice , poppadoms, plain naan and salad for £12. I ordered the lamb kofta curry, my friends both ordered the Kenyan style (machoosi) egg curry. We were asked if we wanted it all to come together or starters first then mains. We chose to get starters first, big mistake. The starters came within 20 /25 mins but the mains took another hour + to arrive. We did ask where the food was and was told there was a 45 min wait for food! I don’t know if it was a tactic to get you to drink more but it was annoying. The warm plates they brought out after the starters went stone cold by the time the food arrived. Food itself was ok, I’ve personally had better but maybe ordering a la carte may have been better? Don’t get me wrong the food is not bad but I had high expectations as heard / seen positive reviews. All in all I would come again but wasn’t that impressed. Maybe just one of those days. Ps If you’re expecting to pay for your food and drinks together at the end, that isn’t an option, you will have to pay for your drinks and food separately.

Excellent service & Ram chef was very helpful & very tasty food.

Came across this pub and I was really impressed with not only the food but the service and the all the staff were amazing n very friendly. Keep doing what you doing. Well recommend

This is my second time visiting and will certainly not be my last. Lovely, warm cosy atmosphere, fantastic staff and absolutely superb food. Authentic, tasty and flavoursome are just a few ways to describe the delicious food we have had here twice! Brilliant veg and non veg varieties available on the menu. Both times bang on! Don’t take my word for it try it out for yourselves you won’t be disappointed. Cocktails were lovely too. Can’t thank the staff enough for their attentive service and hospitality. Amar, Yvonne, Tee and Sach a huge credit to Harrow Inn alongside all the kitchen staff. Thanks again and see you soon for sure! (“,)

A fantastic pub with great food and atmosphere. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The food was fantastic and ooh such big portions I was full and happy .. a definite must 😊😊

First time eating here and I would deffo recommend. Good food and lovely staff, esp Sumit and Neil- so thank you! We had a mixture of veg and non veg, the crispy chili aubergine was really good!

Waited 2 hours for food .keep saying it was coming. In the end we left .a joke don't waste your time here.

Gret tasting food and great service.

We called in on the spur of the moment last night after being recommended by friends ! We weren’t disappointed, the food was incredibly good & the service was great! We have already recommended to other friends & can’t wait to return 😊

Just been to the Harrow inn for a meal since under new management. Excellent, nice setting, attentive staff Sumit on hand for drinks and our order. Food delicious wide variety of dishes and generous portions. Will definitely be back again.
