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

So disappointed with the service since they moved to kelmarsh! I’ve been a few times and the owner lady always seems so stressed and short with customers and sometimes staff! She doesn’t look as happy as she used to be at there other tea room. Today I simply asked for a slice of cheese to have with a cheese scone, and she stated they were far too busy with orders to cut cheese. I could have some grated cheese!! Apparently too busy and no work top space to cut cheese. I didn’t want grated cheese, especially if it’s pre packed , I just wanted a little slice of cheese! I don’t think that was too much to ask. I ended up having a fruit scone. She wasn’t bothered that I was disappointed. In the queue I heard her tell another customer they were too busy to do something for the customer, I didn’t hear what the request was. Surely with in reason we can ask for simple requests. The selection isn’t as good as it used to be at the old tea room. Nor is the service.

Popped in during a bike ride, we sat in the court yard, a very stressed and rude lady told us the court yard was closed, offered us nowhere else to sit and we showed very poor customer service.

Nice ambiance, service very good, foooood we had paninis and sandwich the fillings were very skimpy and I believe they had increased their prices. Not value for money. We have been in before and enjoyed our food. This must have been an off day. Will try it some time in future.

This is the 4th time we have been to this cafe and I will say this “it’s a fantastic cafe to relax and have a bite to eat and drink”, and when the weathers nice, you can sit outside. It’s also dog friendly

Appalling. When you order a curry you expect some meat in it, all I ended up with was a plate of sauce. If you dine in you might fare better though I doubt it, but with takeaways you're taken advantage of. Will go elsewhere in future

Delightful Sunday lunch and accommodated our large extended family with ease. Great food (and super live music) for an autumn afternoon. 😋

I must admit I was expecting this to be another generic Sudo Mexican eatery, how wrong I was. Food was amazing and really had some incredible flavours! Genuinely tasty and authentic Mexican flavours. Definitely will be making a visit to the restaurant and working my way through the menu. Would recommend buying an item and letting the flavours do the talking!

Super helpful and friendly ! my gran has a gluten intolerance and she was looked after very well !

Good old-fashioned pub with lovely ales on draught.

Always a pleasure to visit the Freemasons. From friendly staff, an excellent owner, or takes the time to talk to everyone, to the excellent drinks and delicious food. The atmosphere is always jumping, be it sports day or live music outside. Never dead, always friendly, fun, and the place to be/go. Summer time is "lo mas excelente" 👌

Really had a nice Sunday afternoon checking this out. Proper boozer with locals. Will be returning.

Cold food, starters are of poor quality, more like frozen bites one can purchase in a Supermarket. Duck was stringy and cold. Main courses were small and Luke warm. If one eats after 9pm and pay in cash, cost is at a concession rate. All in all a poor experience compared to how it was years ago.

Haven’t visited in a while but so disappointed with today’s visit. Firstly no chocolate ice cream, surely this is a basic staple? No visible menu to look at the sundaes or desserts. Banana split with a manky old banana and pistachio ice cream which had no taste. Overall a waste of £28 and a planned visit. Won’t be back!

Great place to take kids to. Lovely ice cream and well worth the price. Especially the large tubs to take home for the freezer!

Six of us had a "just what we wanted" light lunch at this small, characterful cafe, tucked into one of Market Harborough's historic "yards". Two had the excellent tomato and basil soup, served with a ciabatta roll; two had a delicious ciabatta roll (one gluten free) with cream cheese, figs with a touch of honey and pistachio nuts; one had a bacon-filled ciabatta roll and one had a fruit scone. We all enjoyed our lunch, and the two staff were very helpful. We thought we had made a very good choice out of the numerous options in the town and would definitely go again.
