The Welby in Melton - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great and inviting pub. Food was tasty and staff were really friendly. They have a great little kids play area too. Look forward to going back and hopefully trying their Christmas menu.

Lovely environment, well priced food and outstanding staff! Had a good look at the new up and coming Christmas menu that looked scrummy and carnt wait to give it a try we will be back. Thank you 🙏

Beautiful food and wicked customer service very well mannered and felt looked after on our visit would definitely recommend to anyone

Enjoyable evening watching football in the sports bar but very expensive drinks, one pint of Peroni (Lager) Shandy (half lemonade) was £7.55

Visited 13 August for food and drinks with friends. Good food, excellent value and great service, as usual. Nicola and Tracey were very helpful when ordering food and drinks.

We did arrive pretty late last night, at night about 7.30pm the pub is clean and fresh, I don’t really want to say your standard hungry horse, because I liked this one. It was more unique! Lovely decor! They did our food, for 8.45pm so I was really grateful as I understand the kitchen closes! So thank you, as we did travel 40 minutes! The food was piping hot and delicious considering the time! All of the staff were lovely, but one lady stood out and just made the end of the experience better! She had a blonde hair, middle aged women that works behind bar! Very friendly, made us both laugh, so thank you! We will definitely come back, and come back for lunch instead this time!

The service here is immaculate first time here lovely place to bring kids to play on the climbing frame wide option of delicious food to choose from overall is 10/10 the bar staff kerry and Tracey were amazing my server Ellie was so polite along with the chefs who did an amazing job will definitely come again

30/05/2024 what a lovely evening booked for 8 people and have to say the staff Sharon,Lillie and Ellie were fantastic rushed off there feet but the speed of the service drinks and food were 2nd to none will certainly be returning all staff and chefs are a great asset

Love family meal as usual. Food was amazing! The children love being able to play outside after their meals. Staff service amazing, especially from Tracey and the new lady, I believe called kerry/kelly

Had a lovely burger for dinner and great service from the girls at the bar and our waitress Ellie who was extremely helpful and served myself and my family with a smile even though it was very busy! :)

Wow popped in tonight on way home from long day at work How would you cope without the lovely Tracy & Sharon always smiling them girls even though they were extremely busy queuing out the door …. & the amazing George running around like a mad man .. great team work held it together well done !!!! 👍

We had fantastic 8oz rump steaks today. We were served by Ellie who was most helpful. The steaks are very good value for money.

Great food amazing service from 3 lovely ladies Tracy Abby & Sharon 😀 wonderful atmosphere will be back for sure & recommend to friends x

Came in yesterday with the family. Lovely food with affordable prices. Big shout outs to lillie, Tracey, George and Nicola for making it a lovely experience. Will definitely be coming again

Had a lovely evening here at the Welby Josh behind the bar is wonderful he can’t do enough for you he greets you with a smile he’s very friendly and a credit to the already great team at the Welby

Really good service from all staff considering How busy the pub was! Bar staff very friendly and even assisted me in choosing a drink I’d never tried before. Food quality was great and food came quickly.

Brilliant staff all friendly and polite really quick service breakfast was quality would recommend to anyone who is in the area

Great visit as per usual. Staff are excellent, always go above and beyond. Cater for all my allergies which is fantastic. Shana has done an excellent job here with the staff. I look forward to coming here weekly. Love the karaoke nights aswell.

The staff were amazing and helpful, the food was absolutely delicious and the service was quick. . The atmosphere is nice and relaxing. Could not have been any better. Would highly recommend for anyone that wants to have a decent meal or a drink.

The staff are excellent and valuable to the company.Food value for money to.Told all my family to download app as well for all the discounts well done welby team

Come here all the time for food and drinks. The place is so well ran, food is always excellent and the service is fantastic. Always made to feel so welcome from shana and Tracey. Look forward to our weekly meals. Great job, keep it up

We held our wake here for a family member. It was exactly what we had hoped for. Shana helped us with what we needed for a buffet and the food was lovely. All the staff were really friendly and made us all feel really welcome on a sad day. Can’t thank you all enough xxx

Another great evening at our favourite table number 19. Abby and Sharon looked after us well. The food is excellent value for money and we were able to watch football while we ate.

The breakfast here is very amazing couldn't fault it the server abbey was really nice and caring asking for any allergies and was really polite, my waitress ellie ensured I had everything including any sauces I had forgotten overall the experience was amazing.

We came for breakfast with the Easter bunny, the food was lovely, all staff put on a great show for the children and there was lots of lovely activities on the decorated table. I have one happy little girl now, thank you welby and especially Ellie & Lillie xx

The welby was lovely, such as friendly atmosphere. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was such good quality for the price, it tasted amazing. No complaints here. Would definitely come again. Absolutely no complaints!!

Attended many times since my last review, including Xmas day, and have never been disappointed with the food or service. The service has always been polite and efficient, food great on each occasion and particularly excellent value for money. The app is easy to use for ordering food and drinks if you don't fancy going to the bar. Dropped one star off of the review this time as on my last visit I drove the car down to use the electric charges as I had some credit on an app from visiting McArthur Glen, but three out of four spaces were taken by diesel white vans and a petrol car, no biggy as I have my own charger, so I drove the car back home and walked down, meant I could have a beer!

Great atmosphere, lovely food as always, value for money and great customer service. Especially by Josh Will be back again very soon!

Met with family last night for a meal get together was very busy Staff were great was checked food was all good & tables cleared by Sharon also had a lovely chat with her The lovely Tracy on the bar was also very chatty all round great service great food

We visited the welby for lunch and we couldn’t fault the food or the service thank you to Lillie for the service that we received would definitely recommend

Great environment and quality food staff was all very friendly was served by Lillie she was very polite and helpful provided great customer service

Brilliant service from Lillie at the welby perfectly explained the offers available and great for price so I didn’t miss any deals

Great service by a lovely young lady called Abbey. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and allergies. Definitely service with a smile. Our food came out quickly and was nice and hot and there was plenty of it. We'll definitely be back again :)

As always here it was great service, prices & quality, especially the battered fish, some of the best around. We shall def return soon.

Fantastic as always. Special mention to nicola and josh for their excellent service and attentiveness. Always make you feel welcome.

Great place to meet up with friends, food is to a good standard, bar staff always very happy and welcoming. And a big thanks to Tracey always there with a smile 😃

it was amazing, everything tasted lovely.the servers was amazing and lovely especially the lady called tracy who served us

Poor selection of real ales (just one weak beer). Food was good, but plates nor glasses cleared between courses. Much better places to eat in the town centre.

Always come here every Friday and the care and attention certain staff members show us never fails to make our day. Has been our local for years but something as simple as a VERY hot coffee, whilst not exactly a big deal in terms of profit for the pub, means a lot to me. Tracey, Sharon and especially Abbi always take the time to make me feel like I'm not being a nuisance and go the extra mile to give me what I like. Not a drinker so the weekly coffees always go down well. Keep up the good work team Welby !! Julie.

Great service all evening. Abbey always makes you welcome. Service with a smile and a bit of banter. Just how it should be!!

Food was amazing and well worth the money the staff were brilliant and nothing was to much trouble thank you to Isaac ,Nicola,Lillie and Josh for making the experience enjoyable will definitely be back soon

Great experience, great prices and well being of staff. Shout-out to George, Ellie, Tracy, Abbie and Sharon. Will definitely be going again

Visited with family for a birthday meal, staff were lovely. Our server Lillie was very helpful and made the whole experience enjoyable. The restaurant was quite busy and Lillie was able to help us find a table. Overall experience was brilliant would definitely recommend.

Had a great lunch. Food was really good and the service was amazing from George, abbey, tracey, Ellies and Sharon. Would recommend to go

We love it at the welby. We always get great service from all the staff including Abbey, Ellie, George , Tracey and Sharon. The food is great value for money so by the time we are done we are all stuffed. Would highly recommend this...

The staff here go above and beyond, to ensure you have both excellent food and service. We visited today after reserving a table for my son's birthday with 5 of his friends, despite 8 of us in total, the food came out much sooner than...

When I visit the Welby, being disabled and using a wheelchair, the staff always make sure there is enough room for me to manoeuvre without disturbing anyone. When Nicola or Josh are working they go out of their way to make it a very pleasant...

Great spot for watching the football with friends. The Guinness here might be the best in town. Nicola and her colleagues were fantastic hosts!

Great cheap food and even better service! The gravy burger was lovely Thankyou Nicola for a good laugh and a good pint

Fantastic atmosphere . Food and service from Tracy was excellent. I would 100% recommend this for a family meal.

Lovely food great service nothing was too much trouble. The food came out hot and well presented Thank you Tracey for making our stay a very enjoyable one.

Good service, good food and good prices, what more does anyone require. The only issue is sometimes there are feral children and the parents take no responsibility disruptive nature of their kids.

A regular stop over for lunch for us on ride outs so decided to try the breakfast. Quick service, full breakfast was a good but not rediculas size,friendly service, great price. Will be back

Great service from Josh, nice to be served by someone who seems to really look after customers. Thanks

Loads of free parking, good food, staff very accommodating... we go a couple of times a week. Great offers on food all week

great for casual night out. Food was good, service excellent. Josh served us and was very friendly and helpful. I eat here at least once twice a month and love the menu, food is always cooked well and presented nicely, service is always brilliant.

My favourite place in Melton Mowbray for a dinner. Big portions & tasty food, lovely service, George was brilliant with our requests. Beer, yes you still can get a pint for 3£

Excellent meal at the welby and the service was fantastic - special mention to Tracey who went above and beyond.

Sharon and Tracey were great staff.. looked after us well . It was our family’s birthday and Sharon brought us our pudding with candle which really was lovely. Thank you

Lovely atmosphere with friendly staff. Ordered a wrap & pudding, both were delicious. Reasonably priced too. Lots of parking available. Definitely going back to try the Sunday lunch because they looked amazing.

We have visited The Welby twice recently for Sunday lunch. The food was excellent and service was good. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely go again.

Me and family/friends are regulars at weekends and week nights for food and drinks but I must say the cleanliness seems to have dropped a bit recently, I find the tables outside in a poor state and also sticky unwiped, they also have broken table...

The kitchen staff (I won't go so far as to call them chefs) are re plating food that had been returned. One of the wraps on a kids meal had sauce wiped inside it and had been neatly re folded so the staff didn't notice...

I reserved tables for 16 to celebrate my dad’s 99th birthday. The Welby has been dad’s local pub since WW2 and he loves it there. Sharon, Lillie, Jack and Isaac made sure the tables were well marked and laid out and their service was excellent....

Me and my family came down for lunch together. The bar staff were absolutely lovely, we were served by Sharon and Josh. Both were fully willing to go out of their way to help us and advise on good choices. They were both warm and...

Our visit was for my sons 50th Birthday, 10 people were seated the food was excellent and the service outstanding. The staff were very polite and helpful. Unfortunately I was taken ill and passed out an ambulance was called by my husband which was there...

I’ve been in the welby for a steak, I was served by Ellie. She asked me if I would mind moving because the table i was sat at was reserved, it wasn’t a problem i was shown to another. My food arrived, it looked great....

I’m a local and have been to the “Welby” hungry horse many times. This was the first time experiencing it so busy. I just wanted to pass on despite it being extremely busy and waiting a little longer than usual for meals to come out...

Good service, Ellie did a great job serving us. Nice meal out with the family, would come again if in the area.

Had a great time elli the staff member who accommodated us was a lovely young girl, with big smile. Pricing was on point the food was great. Had a great time loved the quiz can’t wait for the next one.

As somebody who absolutely loves a Sunday lunch this was by far the best one that I've had in ages whilst eating out at a pub and what tops it all off was the portion size of it all especially for how cheap it was...

A very family-friendly pub with a play area and plenty of seating available outside for those sunny days. The food is very typical for Hungry Horse, but nonetheless, it was certainly needed! I went for a Sunday Special Roast and my friend went for the...

Great service, helpful staff and lovely food. Full tummies all round. Thank you very much Abbey and Isaac.

The staff were excellent and the food was amazing and the atmosphere was really good and would come back again.

This was our second visit for lunch,and travelled from Bourne,lincs. Upon our arrival the Welby doesn't look overly inviting from the exterior,and could certainly do with a tidy up externally,after saying that looks can be deceiving. We ordered food and drinks at the bar and...

We came to the welby on 28th May for dinner and bingo. We had a lovely time and we were severed by Lillie. She was smiley, welcoming and efficient, nothing was too much trouble. She was fab!

We was in the area for a family day out, popped in knowing it would be child friendly without booking before. Lillie who greated us at the door informed us that there wasn't mich luck with us getting a table due to busy times and...

Very strange environment was a regular customer for many years when max was the manager but there is just something off now it didn’t feel welcoming

Took my wife , en route to Wisbech. She was delighted - the pub , the food , the service etc all excellent. Especially the food great value.

Lovely food at reasonable prices. Our experience did involve a couple of things that we weren't fully satisfied with but the waitress Lillie dealt with the issue extremely quickly and very professionally. On this occasion we were compensated extremely generously for only minor issues. I...

Was served by Abbey, who went above and beyond to solve a problem Guinness that allowed me to enjoy my beverage. Upon learning she was a duty manager was impressed by her knowledge and capability of running a successful venue which is lacking from other...

Abbey our server is always so quick to help with our needs/ wants always comes with a few sachets of salad cream knowing I will ask for some. Great customer service. Great food. Clean restaurant. Great atmosphere.
