The Sugar Loaf in Melton

NOT DOG FRIENDLY. I can’t rate as couldn’t go in (hence average overall rating). I checked multiple sources and reviews which said it was dog friendly but it is not so posting this so that other don’t make the same mistake.

What great value tasty food - how many of us just drive past.. it's really worth stopping here rather than Upper Broughton, half the price, twice the quality...

Great pub serving delicious food. We went on a Wednesday which was pie night. Steak & Stilton was really tasty. They have a great choice of dishes. Well recommended 👌

Good Sunday dinner good size tasty puddings brilliant can't fault anything

Popped in for a mid week lunch. Both the lasagne and chicken off the specials board were delicious. Friendly service as ever. Definitely worth a visit if you're passing.

Lovely family friendly pub, food was great definitely recommend 👌

I think it's a really nice place to eat and drink 🍻

Came in here after a trip back to Nottingham from Corby past the place a few times but decided to go in for a bite to eat Staff were polite and friendly food was really nice Will deffo go back

The pub is in need of a little TLC. The beer though is well looked after and nice I can't score food as I didn't try anything 😍

Best carvery we’ve had before. Great value for money too

We stopped here for lunch and it was absolutely delicious. A great pub serving proper homecooked food, generous portions and a lovely atmosphere.

I came for a birthday celebration and had pie and pudding. It was absolutely the best pie I have eaten in a long time. I had the steak and Stilton, the chips were fabulous too. Treacle sponge and custard for pudding, what a treat. Great service, great atmosphere, great value, would definitely recommend

Great staff food very good will definitely be backsoon

Not been here before I had the carvery. Potatoes not very crispy veg was served separately which was nice had to ask for cutlery and for salt and pepper. Would be better if tables laid with these already on. Table was sticky. Had the cheesecake for dessert which was lovely but just didn't like the presentation as it came in a jar. Nice little pub though and reasonably priced

We stopped here for lunch in the conservatory and we were really impressed. The food was homemade and delicious (including great chips!) and the friendly service was excellent.

Lovely carvery and great pie Wednesday , staff are very decent with allergy control

Booked for a sunday roast, waited about 35 mins then chased only to be told they had run out due to loads of walk in. Not happy, more so as others who arrived later were served. Extremly disappointed

Lovely roast with plenty of vegetables brought to the table to go with it. Dessert was also very nice, I had the sticky toffee pudding with custard.

Eve and Paul and great hosts, we really enjoyed the fantastic wine today. We've not been up in a while due to Anne having knee surgery . We enjoyed the same great welcoming smile and greeting xxx Have a fantastic 2024 both, and we'll see you soon x

Brilliant Christmas dinner. 5 stars!

Great food, fab pub, definitely worth a visit

Good atmosphere on Friday night. Food was quite good but not exceptional.

Food was excellent service excellent every think was excellent 👌

Sticky table. Carvery was OK. Cooking vegetables to order was a nice touch. Not bad but not great either. Would go back again, eventually. Updated Sept 2023: It's improved. Veg a little under but otherwise a very nice meal. Much cleaner surroundings and will be back more often now...

Lovely food and a nice setting. All the young girls were really polite with a great attitude. We will be back when we come and visit again.

Lovely evening, and an amazing brownie dessert that I definitely will be returning for ☺️

Nicely decorated. Not much outside seating. Food good. Bar staff pleasant.

Food was excellent. Took a little bit long for someone to take our order. Once taken then everything was good

Molly performed exceptionally well serving me my guiness. Friendly local country pub located not too far from Melton Mowbray. Staff are nice and cheerful and the other patrons seemed to be pleasant.

Very friendly welcome, excellent service. We stopped for lunch mid week as we were passing through the area. Very tasty, generous portions and the handcut chips were fantastic - they are definitely worth calling in for!. They even provided a smaller appetite menu for my friend's elderly mum as she doesn't eat such big meals these days. Would call again if I was in the area.

Lovely food and great service with a smile 😁

Great pub for some easy simple food. Sunday carvery is brill too

Had a family over from USA, our meal here was just the best , all plates emptied , all our meals were just lovely .great friendly atmosphere.

Adequate. Called in for our tea.

Noisy in conservatory no atmosphere

Lovely home cooked food, great service, friendly and efficient staff. Nice atmosphere, relaxed and laid back.

Lovely pub good food and service

Booked a table to eat here as a stop off on our journey to Lincolnshire. This is one of those places you wished you lived closer to, what a lovely pub with fabulous hosts, as for the food well all I can say is amazing, prawn cocktail was very well presented and delicious served with fresh warm farmhouse bread and butter (gluten free option available) my wife had the rump steak and I had the sirloin both were cooked to perfection and both were melt in your mouth, as for the chunky chips that accompanied them well I actually think they were the best chips I've ever eaten, there was a Portobello mushroom and half a grilled tomato along with a side salad too, all very well presented I must say. We will definitely return in the future even if it means driving the 30 miles from home just to eat here again.

Fantastic food, lovely staff and pub

Amazing staff amazing food love this place ❤️

Party of 20, booked and ordered in advance. Food took a little while to come out (understandable) but the portions were very generous, and the food was great.

Waiting time for food was terrible. Overpriced

Loved it here. Shall certainly return

Just had the most delicious carvery at the Sugar Loaf pub well worth a trip out. Its a great pub with great service and great food. Definitely worth a 2nd visit.

One of our go to pubs. Never had a bad meal yet with the current owners. Always pleasant and they can even guess what we’re going to eat 😀 highly recommend.

We went for my birthday and the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The food was beautiful and the service fantastic. A lovely place to eat and friendly locals too. We'll, they were when I shared my cake 😂 would recommend.

We popped in briefly on a journey home. Needed a. Rest and some refreshments. It was quiet as it was quite late on a Thursday night and the road had been block off for road works. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We sat in a nice corner and played a few games if cards then ... Off we went. I would like to go back again during the day as, although on a busy road, this looks like a warm welcoming pub that I'd like to frequent.

Amazing lunch today thank you my salmon was perfect . chef changed my sauce no problem lemonposset sublime

Brilliant value for money, pie night, Wednesday, absolutely gorgeous pies, in fact it is pie and pudding £12, but im more than happy just with the pie, im stuffed with just the meal, amazing Xxxx

“No dogs inside, mate”. [End of the conversation].

Great pub fantastic food lovey staff could recommend to my friends and will return again 😀 👍

Lovely birthday meal, with my son, highly recommended x

Really friendly and helpful staff and gorgeous food! We only visit occasionally because we live nearly twenty miles away but would definitely come here more often if we were closer.

Pie and pudding night on Wednesday is so good👍

Absolutely superb. The first time we have visited but received a warm welcome as soon as we ealked in. Excellent food and service. Very well worth a visit. You will not be disappointed.

Fish pie was and pudding great value and delicious worth a visit but you want to book

We go for pie night on a Wednesday. Nice pies with chips and veg, great prices, super friendly staff and good service

Pie night amazing. Good price too.

Had a lovely, hot and tasty steak pie, friendly staff and great beer

Lovely pub very friendly. Nice surroundings and food excellent. Would recommend

Great service, great food at reasonable prices

Outstanding place with freshly cooked meals, great friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere 😎

Lovely meal recommended the carvery and the cheesecake

Haven't been to this pub for many years, but as we were passing, went in at lunchtime. They do smaller portions if you wish, i had lovely lasagne and very fresh salad in small size, hubby had lovely chunky gammon steak. All very hot and fresh, will visit again.

Ok a bit of back story, 2004 was the last time I was in the Sugar Loaf. It was my Nans funeral, when she was alive we used to come over just for a bowl of chips. So 18 years later I bring my children who are now 8 and 2 to enjoy the same bowl of chips I used to enjoy. Pint was lovely chips were even lovelier. Thank you sugar loaf for feed so many brilliant memories. 5 star

The food was excellent, not over priced and very good quality service was fab and staff were very friendly Great eat out experience Will be back

Rarely do we over tip but the food and service was amazing, pure enjoyable quality well done to all that work at The Sugar Loaf see you again soon.

A lovely lunchtime meal. Tables spread out nicely, beautiful food and clean surroundings. Would definitely recommend to friends.

A quick stop on our way to Nottingham. Fantastic atmosphere, very friendly staff. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Lovely Sunday dinner with my family

Atmosphere was great, service was good, Wellington was not as described was more mushroom than anything else. Steak was cooked very very well, and chef was able to provide garlic butter as well.

Loved the pie night on Wednesday. Great steak and Stilton pie and fish pie with fresh vegetables and chips. Great value for money.

Really nice lunch there. Catered for 11 of us. Very pleasant staff. Highly recommended

Fantastic carvery with fresh veg
