The best restaurants in Market Harborough-Great Bowden and Arden Harborough East Midlands

Amazing breakfast in Market Harborough on the high street. Wonderful place with a view of the church. The smashed avocado on taste was really sumptuous and the coffee was amazing. Great service from a family run place.

When I wrote a review for this delightful venue in August I had no idea that I would have the opportunity to revisit in September but our coach once again stopped in MH for a break so I hot footed it to Ruffles and experienced the same welcome as previously. They offer a variety of themthe most delicious home made scones as well as other goodies. Helpful staff, great service. I really enjoyed my tea and scone and maybe one day the coach will stop at MH again. This town has so much to offer, and is well worth a visit.

Although I have yet to visit the Harborough restaurant I was delighted to see Saffron has set up in the town after several wonderful meals in the Leicester restaurant. This is as authentic as it gets and is amazing food...Aimee

Having passed this shop several times in the past today we wanted some fish. Ask if they had any cod in they brought out a selection for us. It must have been the freshed cod we have ever had. It was absolutely delicious. Will certainly be going back again.

Great Bowden is a great place to visit on a dog walk, shame that Bowden Stores isn’t. Food was okay, if not a little basic. Service was slow and the prices are on the higher side, but this is probably to make up profits for the lack of seating. There are several better places to go for a light bite or coffee if you’re in the greater Market Harborough area, most of which won’t make you stand by the door or sit in the rain if you have a four-legged friend.

Great service, great coffee, great food. What more could you want!

Friendly and welcoming. Delicious Veggie breakfast, lovely oat milk flat white coffee, friendly and efficient waitress. Highly recommend a visit.

Had a really lovely meal with friends. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic meal tonight food was excellent

We visited last weekend with my family and we had a great time from start to finish, the service was so great for us , we also enjoyed all our food was really fresh And tasty too, I highly recommend this restaurant to every one as they have lots of nice food options not only on they menu , but they still have they daily menu which we think that is great to have on the restaurant, thank you so much to all the staff at Rocksalt Bistro

Great pub, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was incredible! Will be visiting again very soon!

Selection of food was really nice.

I had the lunchtime deal which is definitely good value for money, however, the spring rolls starter was swimming in oil on the plate. The rice in the sweet and sour dish had clumps of white rice in it and was warm. Food was served quickly which may be why the above issues occurred. They should slow down and check the food before serving. All in all, disappointing on this occasion.

Authentic quality Italian food in a friendly environment. Our favourite place to eat in Market Harborough. Highly recommended.

Market Harborough is a fantastic market town with lots of independent shops. The Garage Bakehouse seems to be a good example of a small business and there was a queue. Everything smells good and it is well laid out so I was looking forward to buying. The service was chaotic (which should have been a red flag) and the older lady serving seemed flustered. I opted for white bread and a small selection of cakes. The bread was odd, I'm guessing it had not risen properly (not sure), it tasted wrong. The cakes were OK, although the order was incorrect. I decided to go back to complain later in the day, but it had closed, so I missed my chance. Perhaps this was a bad day at the bakery, but I will not bother again.
