The Plough Inn in North West Leicestershire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely country pub with great service. Food spot on and lovely quality. Nice walk up and easy uber back if you're staying at one of the airport hotels and wanted to support a local business like we did.

A good choice if you are overnight staying at an airport hotel. Food was ok and beer choice very good. Much cheaper than hotel bar!

Great Bass beer served in a traditional local pub atmosphere.

Very nice local pub. Sadly no food on Monday and Tuesday. But a good place to wait when collecting people from East Midlands Airport

Gorgeous pub and the food was great, a great selection of real ales and very friendly people, we will definitely go back.

Only went in for a quick pint,still the most tranquil beer garden. Cant comment on food, but beer was as good as always.

It was just a shame we were early for the restaurant opening, but when the food arrived it was outstanding

Just passing through. Fantastic food. Had the pork stroganoff and it was unbelievable . Complements to the chef. Keep doing what you’re doing.

Great atmosphere, cosy place to have a drink.

Title says it all, really but I have to type 100 characters so might as well let you know that we're going back tonight for more :-)

Chicken dry , beef leathery , waited 30 mins for food when only us in, seemed like all food was from frozen

Excellent food and ale, lovely staff,great service and atmosphere, highly recommend for anyone using east midlands Airport as we were.

Awesome place lovely food... we had squid+halloumi. For starters... local pints or ale...white main course was ploughmans burgers and fries+chicken ham and leek pie with fries and Gravy... would highly recommend them Nich served us what a great guy.... Will definitely stop here again the next time.

Didn't eat here but the real ales were very good would definitely call again if in the area

Lovely food, excellent service. Definitely recommend!

Between flights I walked to the plough inn, set in a picturesque village, only took 15 mins, by the way trust Google maps to get you there, via industrial units, then little wooded path at the end to public roads. Had a fabulous fish and chips and a good pint of the black stuff. I will be back.

Lovely little place. Food was good as was the friendly staff. Will definitely go again

Great little local not far from the airport within walking distance from the hotels plenty of parking

Best fish and chips ever! Everyone agreed. We will be back. The local people are very lucky.

Lovely little country pub. Very friendly staff!

Rustic pub with really top quality food. Had the lasagne and my friend had fish n chips, thoroughly enjoyed it!

Traditional village pub with small bar, wooden beams, open fire place and lovely rear garden. Friendly staff and locals and a homely, cosy feel. Good selection of drinks, including a well-kept Timothy Taylor Landlord. Was going to bring a visiting colleague to eat here but the food didn’t look anything too special, so decided to go elsewhere. Would definitely return for drinks though.

This was an excellent friendly pub. Good beers and the food was great. New people are running it now and things have gone down hill...

Lovely little pub Staff very friendly and helpful Food excellent The gammon is amazing Good way to start off our holiday

Cozy atmosphere, great food, and friendly service! There was an issue with my credit card which for some reason didn't work, but the staff was very kind & understanding, and I would like to thank them for their patience & effort in looking for a resolution! :)

The staff weren't particularly welcoming and the food was pretty average, even though the prices were still fairly high.

Great village pub...from food to beer superb

Excellent food and stuff. love this place so much. Regards from Poland

Some people just want food in 10 minutes We’ll best place is mc Donald’s Or kfc Sorry to say but food takes time to cook

The food is OK, nothing to complain about but nothing special either. The service was quite slow considering how quiet the place was and the dining room was quite cold as well. Based on our overall experience we won't be rushing back.

We chose here as was central for meeting friends who lived far from us . We had Sunday roast lamb and it was delicious. Very filling . Lovely welcoming pub and dog friendly which was another reason for choosing this pub . Would highly recommend and a credit to the new owners and wish them all the best in their new venture

Very very busy ,staff very polite

Really good country pub, great food, friendly, efficient service and good beers; first class......Now changed hands AGAIN! Bring back Maddie.

Tried to visit and wanted to book lunch. Sadly the website is so awful, with pictures fly in . When you go to the menu page no detail. It refers you to Facebook, again information on the rare side. It may do the most amazing food but it needs to get a professional website/facebook page

8 of us came to have lunch here today for my husband's 60th Birthday. This is a proper pub. A lot of locals seem to use it, who we found very friendly. All staff that served us were really welcoming & efficient. Menu on offer today was a choice of 2 Sunday roasts & vegetarian option. All of which were nice. Dogs allowed. Can't fault it. Will return.

Good food friendly staff, nice village pubs

Great local pub, had character, lots of dogs inside which my kids loved, good food, reasonable prices, and close to East Midlands Airport

Nice pub and clean... However the food let it down massively. I ordered 'the Plough Burger" thinking it would be decent, instead i got a toasted bun, not butter, with a tiny burger in it with no salad or cheese in the burger, a bit of salad on the side and a few scraggy chips. Really disappointing. The service was ok, but when they asked if all was ok with my meal i new they where taking the mick. I'd go for a drink but avoid the food.

Super friendly local ,thanks for a top night

Great food and friendly staff in a lovely traditional pub.

Fabulous village pub situated in a stunning village a short 5 min drive from East Mids airport. Delicious food served along with good selection of beers. The chilli with rice was very good. Car parking to the rear. Spotlessly clean restrooms. Very friendly staff.

We found the Plough on the evening before we flew for holiday. One of our party is gluten free and on the phone when we calle dthe staff were helpful and confident that they could cater for us. The pub is a lovely olde worlde pub with exposed beams and low ceilings. A friendly team who were happy to make us a cocktail and feed us some great food.

What a great selection of ales and cider Went with family food was fantastic good menu and great specials board whole experience was a great afternoon out

Pub tradizionale inglese, cortesia, simpatia, buoni e preparati bene i piatti proposte e ottime le birre. Prezzo giusto

We stopped here for lunch on our way to Yorkshire. Made very welcome, we sat in the garden to enjoy the sun as been in the car for hours. Lovely meals and a treat for our dog too. Worth the short detour from the motorway for a very pleasant break.

Great service .loverly traditional food .

Greats from Germany, es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir kommen wieder,wenn wir irgendwann wieder in Donington zum Rennen sind. It was a pleasure. Thanks to Maddie(?) and the Stuff.

Giardino estivo perfetto..internamente ancora meglio. Birre e piatti ok…una gran bella scoperta. Bellissima atmosfera

Nice Terrace, nice food! Beef Burger withou cheese…

This Pup was taken over in December 2021, so the lady owner told me....Wow wow and wow again.... a must visit Pub. We were on our way to East Midlands Airport and thought we would have dinner. Looking on TripAdvisor we saw that the Plough Inn was close by. Sunday dinner was our choice. Roast beef and a Pork with crackling dinner were our choices. What a meal. Everything cooked to perfection. Vegetables just right a little crunch when eating, not the slop you get at a carvery. Beef and Pork lovely flavour, and the gravy was the finishing touch. Pudding Apricot crumble and custard awesome. You need to try this pub, service and staff are amazing. Well done The Plough.

Great traditional pub.some great decoration inside

Very welcoming pub,with good pub grub and a fair selection of beers. Service can be a little challenging.

Lovely quaint village pub. A very warm welcome with fantastic service and exceptional food. Well worth a visit.

Traditional country pub that is perfect to visit on a summers day. There’s a lovely little beer garden round the back and the pub is dog friendly. Didn’t manage to grab any food on this occasion so can’t comment on this front but have visited in the past and the food was great if I recall correctly. Would wholly recommend.

Nice food friendly staff , would return and recommend.

We had lunch here before going to East Midlands airport. Really good pub grub, very friendly service and a good selection of beer. In a nice quiet village and way better than airport grimness. Took 5 mins to drive and park up at airport from the pub. Wld deffo recommend

Friendly village pub. Good food - excellent steak & ale pie, Good atmosphere.

VERY slow service at the bar, shame nice little pub.

Busy pub, first time here. Staff is friendly and the place welcoming. Didn't get to try the food, but they had a local burger business in, and they were great.

I called in last Tuesday with some friends and had fish and chips for £10.00 each. Lovely meal so went back today (Friday) and ordered the same meal. The price had gone up to £14.00 for the same meal. 40% increase in 3 days. How do they justify that?

Good ale, good gin selection, good pub grub. Our local and we go there often. Lovely sun trap beer garden in the summer. Fabulous!

Great food and really friendly staff 👍😁

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, staff are friendly and attentive, food was enjoyable and reasonably priced.

Excellent on all fronts, friendly locals, hosts, & staff, quality real ale with a good food offering.

It’s so nice to see this pub re-opened with lovely, friendly, helpful staff, excellent choice of beers (that matters to my husband 😂) and wonderful food. Well worth a visit.

Excellent Sunday lunch 😋 Will be going back to sample the desserts 🍨 🥧

Amazing steak dinner. Awesome service, food to die for. Highly recommended!

Amazing food and lovely place. Will definitely come again

Great local county pub, very friendly and excellent beer.

Lovely food just get service right and your away 😋

Very nice and cosy a pub with a traditional, warm interior. The owner and local people helpful and open hearted. We spend a pleasant time drinking whisky and talking. Gatto & Jan from Poland.

Excellent service available for Sunday roast dinner. Very fresh food and good choice available. Staff very friendly and helpful nothing is too much trouble. Great ambient pub. Would highly recommend

Lovely lunch .. highly recommended

Great place really friendly people

A lovely Village pub friendly with great service and always with a smile. Great on a cold evening with the fire blazing.

Very people friendly and dog friendly . Excellent selection of beer and the food looked very nice as well

Fantastic friendly pub. Great selection of real beer and the owners are wonderfully welcoming. Great to see it sooooo busy tonight. #Diseworthlovesaquiz 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Under new management since re-opening in December 2021, the Plough has been steadily building up its offerings. Today, they began serving all-day breakfasts on Saturday from 9.30am. We called in to re-fuel at the end of a morning bike ride. A brilliant breakfast for hungry cyclists! One Full English Breakfast, one Breakfast Cob, with fresh ground coffee. Quality ingredients (lovely thick bacon rashers), generous portions and warm, friendly service on a cold, foggy January morning. Highly recommended ♥

Looks Occupied, and tidy but is currently closed. 21st Aug 2021

It's the first Sunday opening after lockdown and I'm so pleased Nic decided to open back up again. My parents moved to the village in Dec 2020 and this was the first time we could take them to their new local. We were just popping in for a drink, but the smell of the Sunday roast was too tempting! I ordered Beef and was plated up a mouthwatering and belly-filling portion. Great selection of veggies and the service was brilliant. We all felt covid safe as it was well organised and it wasn't too crowded. It's a good job the roast isn't served every day otherwise my Dad would be reserving a daily spot! We also had a treacle sponge pudding with custard, really tasty and value for money portion. It finished me off though!

Great staff, great food and fair prices.

Lovely welcome, good beer. Middle of covid so nothing normal.

I’ve visited this Inn in the past, and rated it a four, however my latest experience certainly superseded the previous visit. A lovely friendly lady, who I can only imagine was the owner, and a very enthusiastic waitress looked after us extremely well. A limited menu, but that can only be expected during these trying times, offered a nice selection of fayre. Whitebait and a burger( with stilton!) for me. My wife had the mushrooms, followed by the fish and chips, all cooked perfectly. Wine was also well presented, ice bucket with plenty of ice! All in all a lovely evening.

Ordered in advance for big group at lunchtime, everything ready shortly after we got there

Food, garden , landlord, drink , dog friendly, gorgeous little hidden gem of a pub

Excellent village pub perfect place to stop off after and enjoy the beer garden in warmer sunnier weather

Found this pub on line. Evening meal with family before our holiday. Lovely pub easy parking great service. We had fantastic food 5 star plus

Booked last minute for a table of four. On arrival the pub had a nice atmosphere, ordering process wasn't explained though and we weren't given a menu. Service was non existent, food took roughly 45 minutes to arrive and was substandard when it did. Frozen chips, normal baps for burger buns and the steak was the worst I've ever experienced. Ordered it medium rare and it looked anemic and was barely edible, it was a terrible cut and was cooked very poorly to the point it had no taste whatsoever. Left with dirty plates in front of us for 20 minutes before we decided to pay up and leave, I'd have complained in person had there been someone waiting tables to raise this with at the time. £60 later, I would never return under the current management.

We love going into the plough, the locals are friendly and the owners are awesome people, always have a smile, as do the other members of staff. Its children friendly has a separate area for eating, a separate TV room for the sports, a snug room and the bar area with coal fires. In the summer you can sit in the garden. Has plenty of parking too.

A good pie had steak and ale great pastry

Parking is very tight especially if you have a large car. Standard pub grub with good portion sizes. Has a great Beer Garden.

Un lugar increíble, muy de lo que uno soñó al saber que viajaba a Inglaterra...y la comida exquisita!!! Recomiendo ver al majestuoso perro alaskan que los acompaña...

Nice pub with helpful staff. Beer and chilli very enjoyable too.

Simple pub grub served well. Excellent well kept beer! Locals always friendly, handy for airport. Roaring fire.

Lovely friendly country pub. An excellent selection of ales and great food. I heartily recommend the hand battered cod and chips!

What more can you say? A simple but effective menu with decent choice of home made food. All served quickly and efficiently with no fuss and at very acceptable prices. Good choice of beers on tap, nice staff and obviously somewhere the locals go to regularly. My advice: get out of your airport hotel and take a 3 minute car or taxi drive to go to the plough for your evening meal. You’ll save money and enjoy it too! Thank you Plough! We loved it.

Visited here whilst staying at airport hotel as we had an early flight It’s easily accessible just follow the path through the garage and down the lane would advise the use of a torch as the lane is not lit The food was good the atmosphere excellent the bar team were very friendly I would definitely come here again if we were to stay at the airport

Great Village pub.. Ideal location to meet if using East Midlands Airport. Saves paying Airport Parking 🅿 enjoy a meal or a drink or both then just drive the 7mins to airport to pick up.

Ñice village pub good beer selection did not have food but looked very nice

Great option if you are staying at the airport, or if you want a meal before your flight and before you get drawn into the inflated prices past check in!We were staying at the airport, but refused to get snared by our hotels restaurant prices, looked this place up, and glad we did.Friendly welcome, good quality, home cooked food, busy, but still efficient service.We visited in November, but looking at the gardens bet this place is lovely in the summer with plenty of outside dining space. Well done to the owners.
