The White Horse in Hinckley and Bosworth

Just great for a stop off after a stroll round the lakes.

Together with a group of friends we decided to blow the cobwebs away and go for a walk with our dogs at watermead country park. None of us had been before and whilst walking around we stumbled across "The white horse " pub. We sat in the garden and had a couple of pints accompanied with various lite bites which the whole group enjoyed. Friendly staff and a lovely location. Give them a try 🍺🍻

Great place with a great atmosphere and beautiful garden. Highly suggest it for a pub lunch

Very friendly staff. Nice food, nice location. Had a very pleasant Sunday afternoon

The meal was lovely scampi cooked nice wasn't dry! salad and fries. 🍟 Staff were friendly, I would certainly recommend.

Loved our meal here today , tasty food had stater, main and dessert and our steaks were perfect. Great dog friendly place, brilliant service from friendly people. Great job 👏

Really nice place, and surprisingly, the food was really good.

We had a larger party of 18 who were meeting for a walk around Watermead Country Park and returning for lunch at The White Horse. They kindly allowed us to pre-book our choices to be ready when we returned. Food was really good, with most of our party opting for Burgers, Curries, Focaccia and we were all pleased with the quality of the food (from local suppliers) speed of the service and helpfulness of the staff. All in all... friendly, clean, comfortable (child and dog friendly) venue with a lot of care given to seasonal decoration making it feel current. Special nights are written up clearly on a board so you can join in. Outside seating for fairer weather looks ideal for Summer hazy days dining with a cold glass of something. Christmas menu looks delicious and very reasonable.. so won't hesitate to return or recommend.

Lovely meet up great food and drinks. Welcoming staff great service

Lovely place, great friendly staff. Lovely food

I came into the pub for a nice meal and drink, and the bar tender alex and jenny helped me out all the way through the process and was really kind and patient

Came here based on the reviews and I have to say, for the price of the trio roast it was extremely disappointing. Beef overcooked, terrible slice of lamb (chewy, couldn't consume) and a dry slice of pork. Both Yorkies were overcooked, however one was edible the other was left as was burnt and inedible. Had significantly better roasts at those cheap carvery places and that says something as they're not great. That said, the staff were lovely although couldn't complain about the poor quality of the food as no one came over to check on how the food was and 20 minutes after finishing our meal the plates are still here so still no opportunity give any feedback.

Very nice place looking for a great pint with excellent quality food 👌

Found this pub on a google search. We were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly and helpful even though it was very busy. Wait times for food was minimal. Food was very nice, I had the minted lamb burger which I would recommend. Nice selection of beers. The play area for kids was small but the kids entertained themselves on it the whole time we were there. I would definitely recommend this pub and if I lived in the area I'd frequent it time and time again.

Excellent food. Really busy even on a Thursday lunchtime!

had lovly meal friendly service

Went for midweek lunch without booking. It was quite busy with only a couple of spare tables. Staff very friendly and service was quick. Car park at the rear of the pub has quite a few spaces (there were a handful free when we went).

Really great on every level. Food, service, etc all great.

Lovely pub didn’t know this place went for my sisters wake the food for the wake was superb I will be going back for a meal because the food smells amazing

An evening wedding reception. Lovely food and great service

Didn't eat, but the food smells amazing.Great pitstop from walking around Watermead.

The food was nice and very friendly staff

A nice pub with Timmy Taylors Landlord on tap. Excellent beer garden and location.

Nice location, but an hour's wait for food. We didn't stay to eat.

Beautiful pub, with excellent food and superb service.

Risotto was like soup very poor would not recommend this for food

Never been here before lovely place food was great staff friendly would def go again

Lovely pub, delicious food and great service. Very reasonable prices.

Save your money and eat somewhere else. Have been to this pub a few times before and the service has been a little mixed but the food has been quite consistent even though small portions. Went with family other day and some family ordered the cannelloni. The cannelloni came in an even more reduced size - this time it has been reduced by a third and they normally swap focaccia for chip - so it came with 5 chips yes 5!!! The sides of the cannelloni was watery so we asked why it was small and watery and where the rest of the chips were. The server did not know but gave us the rest of the chips and called the manager over who also didn’t know anything about the cannelloni and had to ask the kitchen who said nothing had changed and confirmed all food is cooked from frozen so we guessed that what caused water around the sides of the cannelloni. They offered to change the meal for us however we’d already waited half an hour (place was empty) and given limited vegetarian choices we just ate what we had ordered. Nice pub due to its location but would not recommend eating here.

Lovely spot by the river. Very nicely set up indoor and out. Coffee very good.

A hidden gem on the outskirts of Leicester. Great indoor and outdoor seating and right next to the River Soar, Lakes and a Memorial walk to burn off the calories after a drink or meal. I am an infrequent visitor to the Midlands, this is my second visit to the venue and I love it. The beer garden has both open and covered / heated areas and attracts a really trendy crowd.

A great place to go on a nice day outdoor seating and a play area for children. A good choice of beers on tap and ice lollies available for the kids. I always enjoy coming to this pub. Highly recommend it for people with children.

Food was amazing, service was great even during the football. Food and drink reasonably priced definitely coming back!

Food ok but not fantastic. Great play area for children.

Great location close to canal watermead park. Enjoy outdoor sitting while the weather lasts 😀

Prompt service in spite of being very busy

Staff were lovely and food was delicious and quick. Lovely to go for a canal walk after some food and a drink.

It's not a bad pub. Food was OK but nothing special, but the price reflects that to be fair

Place looks clean and new , staff are friendly and service is quick however the food may of lacked for kids meal as it they give you a frozen pizza and a dry stale cookie in packaging other than that good place

Never enough bar staff...spend most the time queuing to order. Ashame as good location and nice pub

First time, we will be back, gluten free beer, and gluten free options on the menu

Love this place it's service is always great Jenny who works there always makes you feel welcome. It's become a daily regular place to take friends and if you want a walk water. Ed Park is just at the back so walk drink walk.

Great situation on the canal. Good for families. Beer garden and parking available

Great place to stop by during your walk/ride in the park, or as a destination place. Can't comment on food because I didn't have any, but pub itself (inside and outside) looks alright, and the service is good too. The only thing I'd suggest would to play some music in the beer garden (there's music inside, but not outside), and to be more flexible with opening hours. For example, Sunday is open until 8pm which is reasonable, but not when it is a Bank Holiday Weekend!

Gluten free knowledge from staff was great. Amazing foods and service. Nice car park. Amazing canal side location. Nice outdoor seating with a small park for the kids.

A nice country dog friendly pub with an excellent menu. If you are in this area well worth a visit.

Haven't been here in years. Only popped in for coffee & cake after a walk, but really enjoyed it.

Always friendly and busy. great pub. All welcome. Haven't eaten there yet but food looks lush

Great village pub. Food looks amazing. Good selection of beers. Lovely garden to sit in while enjoying a beer or 2

Went there with friends and the kids. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A big list of beverages and brillant range of food which was lovely. 5* plus

Bring out the drinks is slow but the service is good and staff are friendly. The hearters haven't worked the part few times I've been there. Food was ok The inside of the pub is lovely nice and the fire place is nice.

We keep returning! It's in a lovely spot, the staff are extremely friendly and the food is always good. So, that's why we are so glad we found it and will keep returning. Thank you all.

Good quality place but not pretentious at all. A bit higher than my normal price range. Dog owners will find this place friendly. I needed my food take away because of my plans, the helpful staff foil wrapped it, which was fine. Quite quickly, considering it's freshly made food and they were pretty busy at the time.

No food this time, but great venue and lovely atmosphere.

Quality food and place is very clean and well looked after.

My kind of pub, waterside, great vibe. Have been going there for 50 years, won't regret it! ❤️

amazing, jess is an absoloutely server and she did the job quickly and efficiently, food was banging 10/10 experience no faults

Called in for a lunchtime pint with friends, no food. Service good and good of beers (Timothy Taylor - Landlord😋).

Great pub, fantastic staff good relaxed atmosphere, good food, if you haven't tried one of their focaccia selection would extremely recommend, very very tasty, lunch time only, over all the owners are beautiful people. The chips😋

Fabulous service and food. Had a 90th birthday party and the staff (especially the manager) were great. All really friendly and nothing was too much effort. Many thanks. Ps. Food and drink were great too.

Best pub lunch we've had for a long time. Food well cooked and all fresh and excellent quality. Lovely beer - not too cold! Friendly and efficient landlord and waiting staff.

We're four siblings. Our grandfather was Burstall vicar in the 1920s & we dropped in on our 2024 canal walk. Woman brought her wet dog in & fellow placed a don't slip sign over the drips. Lovely passive aggression!

Food was tasty, well presented and from a wide menu selection. Service was prompt, very attentive and polite.

Really lovely atmosphere and tasty food. Dog friendly and right on the canal, nice small play area outside. Often just go for a walk by the canals and have a quick drink here. Really lovely pub

We had a fantastic night. The food was excellent. The staff were brilliant, friendly, and professional. There were 8 in our party but no mistakes, no fuss, just perfect. Well done 👏.. Great value for money too

A lovely pub, very helpful and friendly staff. The food was excellent. It's well worth a visit.

Great place to have a meal and drink and start or end a walk around Watermead Country Park.

We are a group of ex work mates who get together approximately once a month. Had a few meals since Lockdown at the Whitehorse. Always been fabulous food and service. Had a Christmas meal in December that was absolutely amazing, so decided to have a January meal which we did tonight. Once again food was amazing and the service and staff great. Thank you all.

Beef served well done not pink as advertised. Good service but the food didn’t meet expectations

My partner and I ordered the lamb roast dinner, the 3 meat roast dinner with pigs in blankets and mash (and 2 coffees). The best items were the Yorkshire puddings (great size, soft and crunchy, freshly homemade) and pigs in blankets (good size, tasty, salty). The items that can do with improvement are "roast potatoes" (we both received 2 fried potatoes and 1 boiled potato which we were disappointed with because the menu clearly said roast potatoes), mash potatoes (very crumbly, not creamy like it should be, requires more milk and butter), vegetable medley (we were disappointed that roast carrots didn't come as standard and you have to pay extra for them). Overall, for the price we paid (£45) we would expect better. We expressed that we were unsatisfied with the meal to a waiter but weren't asked why and emailed the white horse but received no reply, so I'm writing a review in the hopes that they will improve their customer experience.

Excellent food and service was equally as good 👍👍👍

We had a large group booking, generally very good experience.

I wanted to spend a romantic evening with my husband, but initially, we were offered shabby benches near the entrance. When we asked for a different table, we were placed right next to the restroom despite the pub being completely empty. It kind of spoiled the mood for me. Besides this one hiccup, the food was quite good and it was nicely presented.

Lovely evening ...thank u so much xxx

Great pub on the canal. Good food, nice atmosphere and good staff. My burger on this visit was one of the best i have had anywhere. Delicious.

Love this place however basic food is a little more pricey these days which is a shame

Really nice atmosphere, guys behind the bar very friendly. Good selection of beers.

Food was very nice my steak was perfect as was the sauce. Nice atmosphere and good attentive service. Thank you

First time here and will definitely go again.

Had a lovely meal, was served by a lovely gentleman whose service was outstanding. Good food and wine. Overall an excellent service provided by a magnificent member of staff. Sorry did not take your name but wish I did . Highly recommend going to the White Horse.

Good atmosphere, plenty of parking space, the food was a mixed bag for us. The starters were great, mains and deserts for half of us was good - the other half was ok. Overall not a bad place. Would like to try it again when it’s not too busy as it was packed when we went.

Welcoming bar staff. Good range of drinks. Tidy inside and out.

Sunday lunch was delicious and plentiful, staff very attentive, offered extra veg. Good decorative order, clean toilets. Good location, larhe beer garden, parking available. We will be back.

Great staff, great drink selection, lovely clean pub, dog friendly and kids play area

This feels like a hidden gem but it was so busy! Great atmosphere

The food took a little while to come out, but it was worth it. Really friendly and helpful staff, I would definitely recommend a visit and it's dog friendly.

Recommended by the staff at the Ibis - Thank you! Lovely food, friendly staff! Would definitely recommend and visit again if we are this way again!

Chill place to go out! Near the river, the back side is a really good place when it is sunny

Not eaten here yet, but food looks amazing. Great to get a drink after we have paddled down tje river. Can pull the boards up to tje garden and chill with a drink

amazing pub. Really nice decor. Lovely food. Friendly staff. Clean toilets and in an amazing location by the water

There after a funeral. Lovely pub, excellent food.

Beautiful pub, great space around for walking. Delicious vegan options and the staff were extremely inviting and polite. I’d highly recommend!

Stopped for lunch on a cycle ride with friends. Was quite busy so we had to wait but the food and beer was good. Tables inside and out, good prices.

Great food and lovely attentive staff.

Stopped off mid cycle ride, great choice of drinks, food was great, is not the cheapest but worth the money. Will definitely be back soon.

Friendly service and tasty food enjoyed by our table of four.

Really lovely pub/restaurant with a great outdoor area. Great walking route surrounding it too. A meat eater, a vegetarian and 2 vegans all very happy with our food :) Also dog friendly. Highly recommend

Very good super food nice garden and sunny

A fantastic open house situated right by the river soar with a pleasant bright green sunny beer garden. I visited this pub whilst on a bike ride with my partner. The selection of beers, ales, and ciders were very impressive, the cakes also looked fantastic , will certainly visit again.

A group of us had a lovely meal today. Plenty of food, all good quality. Excellent service. Dog friendly. Can highly recommend.
