The best restaurants in Bottesford Melton East Midlands

Change of plan this time, no main course then not enough room for cake. Coffee and cake only this time. Just as full and satisfied when we had finished. PERFECT.

Popped in to have breakfast here with the family midweek. Two full breakfasts and smashed avocado and egg on toast for the boy. Service was friendly and quick and the food really well cooked. Would highly recommend. There is plenty of choice for breakfast and lunch and the drinks menu is also extensive. Our breakfast was cooked fresh to order

Our fav go to pub always buzzing with atmosphere

Excellent food and service. Great value for money. The best espresso Martini ever. We really enjoyed the evening and will be back again very soon.

Yet again a superb meal at this delightful place, reasonably priced, staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble. Absolutely brilliant.

Excellent coffee and cake choice. Very comfortable surroundings, stylish. Staff very pleasant and accommodating. Will be visiting again soon. Added bonus of a beautiful homewares shop to browse too.

Outstanding value and excellent food. We had the Dine for Less menu at £14 for 2 courses. It was delicious and reasonably sized portions. There is an a la carte and other specials on so choice to suit everyone! A warm welcome - a friendly village pub which caters for all budgets. Will be returning asap!

Nice atmosphere with friendly staff and customers. Dog friendly with a small enclosed garden.

First time visiting this lovely restaurant. I have a peanut allergy and so trying a new Indian restaurant is quite a scary thing as they usually use nut oils to cook in,I was reassured that things are kept separate and indeed I didn't have any reaction. The food was absolutely delicious.all really fresh. The service was really nice and there was a good atmosphere in the restaurant. Also the prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back with friends and family.

We visited the Old Forge this morning for the first time and we weren't disappointed. We were greeted by Lola the dog who made our own little dog very welcome. The outside seating area was extremely pleasant and well kept with a charming brook and weeping willow setting the scene. Our breakfast of bacon and egg sandwiches served on toasted granary bread was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. Our hosts were lovely and offered advice on some dog walking routes in the area which we went on to enjoy. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you very much, Jayne, Dean and Rexi x

The service was exceptional. We wanted some choices that were not on the menu and the chefs adapted their dishes to accommodate our vegetarian choices. The flavours were delightful and the range of textures made eating the food very appealing. I will definitely be returning and would certainly recommend their menu, food and wonderful service to anyone living in or around Bottesford. Regards Paul and Eithne

Pre booked tables were being used, service dreadful, coffee tepid, cake arrived when we had all drunk our coffee, restaurant manager unfriendly and dismissive, tables not been wiped, crumbs under the chairs.Decor lovely and expensive but ‘fur coat and no knickers’ - need to get the essentials right pdq!!One positive - young waiter Tom was a star.
