The Queens Head in Harborough - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We’re on holiday in Billesdon for a few days and went to The Queen’s Head for lunch. Great, warm and friendly welcome from the jovial landlord. Really good home-cooked food. Had lunch there, the two of us, and then went back the following day as a party of five. Excellent service and very reasonable prices. We highly recommend this great pub and it’s fabulous food. We ate at this pub last year on holiday 2023, and returned this year 2024 and we’ll be back, we hope, next year…! It’s our favourite pub around the Rutland area. Thank you.

Six of us had a birthday celebration lunch. We all enjoyed our meals, efficiently served, piping hot, excellent chips. The menus are on a chalkboard -fine with me - and a variety of pub favourites are served, simple but done very nicely and good value. Had a Theakston's mild to wash it down. The bar area is comfortable and unpretentious with various interesting antique farming artefacts on display. A proper village pub, I'd like to visit again.

Atmosphere is so warming and food is 🤩 amazing

Chose this pub for a meal with our walking group. Very welcoming, great service and staff, thank you everyone.

Dropped in for a Sunday lunch drink. Top quality real ale in busy bar.

Small, friendly village pub. Nice atmosphere and good beer. The locals are a riot.

Lovely friendly and welcoming pub with a great atmosphere for karaoke. Bar staff are great and all the regulars know how to have a good time!

A friend and I meet here periodically as the mid-point, more-or-less between our respective houses. We like it a lot. Nice vibe & nice (well kept) beer selection. We reside in the bar which is tiny with low ceilings and head bump hazards everywhere, making for an intimate and cosy atmosphere. It really is very quaint. We don't bother looking for anything else as this is just the ticket. There is a more expensive restaurant area (through the door that we do not pass). I have eaten in the restaurant but not since about late 2016, so my memories of a very agreeable experience are somewhat dated now, but perhaps still current.

Our favourite lunch venue with varied menu & great service from friendly staff.

Went for Sunday lunch today and as always the Sunday roast was lovely beef and Yorkshire pudding and plenty of fresh veg. Mark and his wife always make you welcome and the rest of the staff are very friendly. The menu is good I've tried a lot of different meals here and if you prefer salad instead of lots of chips they always try to do this for you. I would certainly recommend this pub it will be worth it.

The best quality abuse coupled with humour you’re likely to hear from a professional barman ever he knows the name of every person in the bar I may call in every now and then but always makes me feel like I’m a local. Cheers Mark.

Nice welcoming. A half hour wait for food with only 2 tables of x2. Steak was Overcooked. Sides were fine. For the price I expected better.

Friendly, welcoming staff. Great food and a good selection of drinks available. Highly recommended +++++

Lovely meal as per usual. Expect nothing less as is always very good.

Dog was made welcome in the bar while I drank my pint and while I waited for my food. The curry was excellent. I will be back with my family

The meal was very nice. Cooked well and tasty. There was a choice of about 12. 2 vegetarian included. Not many choices. But no starters. A mistake. Even some bread and olives would be nice. We were never offered the desserts menu, so we went straight to coffee. All in all a reasonable trip. But with so many better places, I shall not be rushing back.

Great food much of it home cooked, terrific value with quality. All the pub favourites and specials. The best steak and ale pie I've had in ages. Nice beers and friendly atmosphere created by the locals and a wonderful landlord.

Had a lovely home cooked meal for 6 all arrived together and was pipping hot. Had delicious pudding all round and very friendly service.

First time visiting this pub. Great food!

Great meals and nice friendly with lovely atmosphere

Good meal efficient service nice atmosphere, recommended

Had a beautifully cooked steak at a reasonable price and the service was excellent even though the manager/barman was down on staff that day

We received a very warm welcome from the landlord and they went out if their way for us regarding food.

Friendly staff, good atmosphere, great food. Thank you

Hadn't been in the Queens Head for a long time and had a really nice lunch. Carnt wait to go back for Sunday lunch or a Saturday night. And the landlord was a really good host

Lovely pub great food and staff all welcome with a smile ☺

Had a fantastic Sunday dinner which was amazing value for money, the beer and wine were very good and the landlord really looked after us! Everything a real pub should be! We'll definitely be back👍

Great pub with and amazing atmosphere

Great service, great food...lovely landlord and lady.

Freindly bar staff and locals..

Quaint country pub, excellent home cooked food, great landlord, all round 5

First time visit for lunch, very impressed with wide range of choice on menu, looking forward to an evening visit.

My first and probably last visit to this place, due tovits being the only pub in a small village I passed through! Not a menu to be seen, but chalk boards at one end of the bar! There was only a very small selection of food available. The wait time was not unacceptable and the meal of fish and chips was good value for money. I cant say the same for the drinks but, the place is, run for profit!

Lovely intimate pub, roaring fire and excellent Sunday roast and blackberry crumble

Food was ok, staff good venue was very homely and comfortable

Christmas lunch with the clay pigeon shooting club was fabulous, hot with good sized portions. Very tasty thank you

Great food, great prices, great service and friendly, efficient staff. What's not to like? I'll be back.

Friendly staff. Lots of meal choices. Fresh fish was delicious. Good old traditional pub.

Great pub special atmosphere 👌 Great food and Beer.

Fantastic Friday fish and chips, batter to die for !

A lovely welcome. Good wholesome food.

Lovely pub with excellent food and a friendly welcome. Large car park, outdoor seating and a big playground off the car park.

Lovely roast dinner. Friendly staff efficient service. Good value for money.

1st class service and food was cooked to order and was very hot when it was bought to the table which is 1st class. Will be going again. Good carpark. Thank you Mark and his wife.

Enjoyed food and company but found the seating in the glassed area to tight for 7 people

Fabulous food, great atmosphere, landlords a bit cheeky but who doesn't like a bit of banter, proper village pub.

Friendly staff, and a nice selection of well cooked food. Highly recommended for a quiet midweek lunch 👍

Visited the queens head this lunchtime we had a couple of baguettes chips and salad which was excellent will return highly recommended

Great meal tonight. Good fun with the girls.......and Mark!!!

Excellent food Service second to none

Great place, great people, great food

Great Quality Sunday Lunch, unfortunately ruined by the fact we were a table of seven on a table that was nowhere near big enough for seven people. When the next table became available (nearing end of lunchtime but before our food arrived) we were told we COULDN’T move the tables together, however two of us could sit on the table, not the best result for a family lunch. So if you plan to visit yourselves, as a group check you can all sit together.

We'd not been for a few years, but The Queen's Head hasn't lost any of its quality. Delicious food, good beer and a warm welcome.

Good place when you,re thirsty!

Nice beer, food is a good steady pub fare at reasonable prices. Excellent

Large and varied menu quality food with friendly service

Very good pub food. Wide selection of beers. Helpful and happy staff.

Great food friendly atmosphere reasonably priced will definitely revisit

Nice pub, clean and friendly, there's a function room for hire and they have entertainment on most weekends

Friendly local pub where people go for a quiet chat. A mix of regulars and passers through pop in but it's rarely busy. Saturdays there is often a band on from 7:30pm. An Everards pub the two regular beers are Tiger and Old Original which are £3.45 & £3.65 a pint respectively. Big Apple cider is also sold from a hand pump for £3.65. Larger ranges from £3.70 for Carling to £4.20 for 1664 or Moretti. There is also a wide range of flavoured Gin - the landlady Glin is something of a connoisseur. Food is served daily from 11am ish til early evening and is priced between £5.35 for a sandwich up to £12.95 for the mixed grill. An 8oz rump steak with chips is £10.95.

Perfect local pub with good atmosphere and great pub food

Good food, good beer, friendly staff. A nice place to be.

Good atmosphere and great food. Went today after not going for years and still as good as ever.

Traditional village pub with real fire and well cooked food. King Prawn curry is my favourite.

Good pub grub, nice atmosphere, good value for money.

Very friendly local. Great ales and wonderful homemade food.

Proper pub, great food and beer.

Super friendly staff, good prices, lots of hot food, well cooked and nicely presented. Always a pleasure to visit and always leave feeling valued. Much better than the Dove which has gone downhill of late.

Called unannounced on Sunday pm in early September after 10 mile walk along the Leicestershire Round on warm day: priority was to quench thirst and we were made welcome and served quickly and efficiently. Impressed on our sole visit.

Went here tonight highly recommend the people are friendly and the food was amazing. If you get the chance go

Although was very busy they managed to fit us in, they were friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and well priced

Excellent Country pub. Nice drop of Everard's 'Old Original'

Brilliant grub and people the best in the village

Friendly and nice beer garden, love it in the sunshine

Nice village pub, good choice of food but the high choice leads to standard quality.

Pretty village, plenty of parking, wide menu, good cooking, courteous staff, possibly rather dark, no views

Good well kept Everard's beer. Good value quality Sunday lunch. Staff friendly and efficient.

We had dinner there. Simple and very tasty food, friendly service.

Faded and jaded village local. Mediocre service

Good homemade food. Great selection of beer..very friendly staff

Visited this establishment with friends who live in a nearby village. My Wife and I had Sunday lunch with lamb; it was absolutely gorgeous and reasonably priced too. Would definitely pay this business another visit when we are in the area again. Service was swift and friendly too.

I had mini haddock, chips and mushy peas. Was a bargain and probably more filling than the sandwich I was meaning to have. Would definitely go back 😊

Lovely pub, good food, really lovely village pub with food

Lovely friendly atmosphere. Brilliant bar staff and sublime food. Highly recommend would definitely come back.

Great food, nice people. Usually packed so book ahead!

All round pleasant public house for good food and friendly atmosphere

No vayas si quieres un refresco como a 3 libras. 50 por una pinta de Coca-Cola Light que verdaderamente estafado, además de £2 por una soda y costo lime £9 por 3 refrescos. Una auténtica pena, el pub y los jardines son preciosos y habría de volver para una comida, pero dada su ubicación no desea tener hijos o ser el conductor, ya que necesitas una hipoteca para volver a permitir. La señora loca estúpida precios acordados eran tierras para mí, pero afirma que no son su hacer, nunca he sido cargado como este en otros pubs everads y bebida en uno regularmente. El servicio de bar también era increíblemente lento.

We live close by so often go, always welcoming, good service, good food & value for money. Good crowd too!

Personal amable y la clientela pero bar el lugar necesita una renovación. Los caballeros de la orina y apestan mal las mujeres necesitan cerraduras en los cubículos.

Lovely pub serving variety of pub food. All home prepared in a lovely atmosphere. Friendly and efficient service

Este lugar necesita una renovación completa, mala distribución asqueroso baños y sillas sucias. Evitar a toda costa

Very nice friendly place. Lovely food. Really impressed.

Que está en el caminar un día, utilizando una guía local. La guía me dijo que la cabeza de la Reina, Billesdon era un buen lugar para romper el pie y que recibieron los senderistas, pero no es así.

Excellent, friendly atmosphere and good quality pub grub
