The best restaurants in Charnwood East Midlands

Incredible personal warm welcome for a family celebration. This is an absolute hidden gem that needs to be recognised and given the credit it deserves. We had been for a Sicilian Sunday lunch and returned for pizza/pasta night to celebrate a significant anniversary confident that our friends and family would be blown away with the authenticity and quality of food on offer.They were not disappointed and we were as impressed with our return visit as we were our first. Thank you for a memorable night xxx

Amazing experience from start to finish, we visited based ok past experiences from friends and family and they were not wrong, we arrived to be greeted by one of the owners who sat us down and explained how the ordering at table worked and gave us an honest recommendation about how many sliders and sides to order. We placed our order for nachos and our first round of cocktails with ease and they arrived promptly, this set the time for the rest of the night as we tried about 10 of their cocktails and were not disappointed. The sliders were incredible, we ordered 2 each and a large side of chips and this was a substantial amount of food, the sliders were cooked perfectly and the pulled pork were to die for. We left to go for a few drinks round town but returned around 9:30 for more cocktails as their cocktails were the pick of the bunch, despite being the only two in the building on a quiet Thursday we were made to feel welcome and play board games and on leaving had a lovely chat with the couple as they told us of their future plans for the place which I must say sound really exciting

Food was excellent we all had the taster menu and they were happy to swap things around. Waitress service was amazing she was friendly and the courses were served without huge waits between Good for Jordan he’s really created a brilliant restaurant with first class food

We visited today, Friday lunchtime, and it was full which speaks volumes for the reputation of the restaurant and college. We ordered the carvery and Holly was brilliant carving the meat and Cameron who was our waiter looked out for us. The food was lovely, we really enjoyed our desserts of sticky toffee pudding & chocolate brownie, which were bought to us in good time. Would definitely recommend and we'll be back! Well done to all the students & staff who support them!

Some takeaway from this place most recently. Certainly a good selection on their menu. I am more excited to hear about their most recent announcement that they are undergoing management change and is being taken over by Everest Lounge group. EL is best rated Nepalese,Indain and Tibetan food in Market Haroborugh. Hopefully not long to wait. The change will certainly enhance the quality of Himalayan Inn.

This restaurant is up along with the likes of the Waldorff Hotel, It is a college for students starting their careers in hospitality. The service is excellent and the food magnificent. Occassionally there is a guest chef who spends a couple of days with the students and they guide the students to create their Menu for service to customers of a Thursday evening. If like me you want to try amazing food for a fraction of the cost, or you just want to support the next generation of hospitality staff and Chefs, then this is the place to go! Don't in anyway think that because the students are learning there will be any mistakes because the first class Lecturers are there to make sure there are none! You will not regret a visit and I go every week in term time have tried many dishes, and have never had a bad meal. These students are trained so highly they win many National competitions and so have the Lecturers. Well done Loughborough College for the high standards and excellent skills and Lecturers this center/restaurant provides.

They had a Motown night on Saturday what a fantastic time we had and food was good too can’t wait until they have another one

Our first visit here last Monday and it won't be our last. Friendly staff, quality food and generous portions. This will definitely be our new go to Cafe when we're in Loughborough.

Fantastic little cafe!! Don’t normally write food reviews on TripAdvisor but considering the last 18months we’ve all had, I think more people need to pay RT’s a visit. Excellent food and great staff to go with it. Will definitely be back!!

Went for drinks with my partner. Dan & Emma we’re warm & welcoming. Wide range of drinks & a lovely atmosphere. Plenty of place to park too. We will return

My mum and myself went here today using a cream tea Groupon voucher. We were hungry so started with a sandwich and panini and these were lovely. Then we had our scones with jam and cream, along with our pot of tea. My mum commented that they were the nicest tasting scones she'd eaten! They were large too, which was nice 😊 The cream was Gorgeous too!! The tea rooms are very different, but really relaxing. You must nip to the loo and see the tree in the shower 🤣 Lots of lovely little gifts to buy too. We both really enjoyed it and would definitely visit again, in fact I think my partner has bought a Groupon voucher too.

Found this place whilst shopping in Loughborough. It's an amazing little place. It's warm and cosy and the staff were so lovely, happy and helpful. Coffee and tea were delicious. The Bakewell tart was exceptional. I took home the last croissant on the shelf that day and enjoyed it for my breakfast the next day, just lengthening my 58 experience. In the New Year we are returning for lunch and maybe try one of their taster nights.

Just had a very nice Café Americano and a very generous slice of Choc Chip Shortbread which was very tasty, light and of course made with butter. Would like to leave a photo but it would be of an empty plate!

Fab food, great value and brilliant staff. Will def be back. Pizza are freshly made with thin sourdough crusts and the chicken was just lovely Nutella pizza next time!

This special Tapas event is only available on certain weekends as the restaurant is currently awaiting resale, so it is necessary to check when the next event is scheduled. The food is wonderful and very reasonably priced, with normally up to nine individual dishes for sharing between two people ( or a whole one each if you feel really hungry. There is also a good selection of local craft beers and traditional cocktails etc . The sweets are a real treat, so go on and spoil yourself. A really great night out and a wonderful atmosphere and the staff are wonderful and friendly. We look forward to the next evening as soon as possible.
