The best restaurants in Castle Donington North West Leicestershire East Midlands

Great welcoming & service was excellent.

Really friendly staff with helpful explanations when ordering. Food is always amazing, cooked fresh and ready on time. Best Chinese in the area by far!

A great and very atmospheric place. This is a real English PUB with very good beer.

Great place fir breakfast to start the day. Friendly staff and a decent portion of breakie to keep you filled for most of the day.

No food but the beer is good. Traditional old English pub

Be careful if youre buying a gift voucher for anyone for this place my daughter bought me one only to find out it can only be used in the grain store and nowhere else also checked with grain store and if you only spend £30 they won't give you vouchers back for the remaining balance. Dissapointing approach to customer service and loyalty however won't be buying or recommending anyone to buy a gift voucher for this place.

The Priest House has so much potential. Its location is lovely, situated by a river and the buildings are lovely. However, this is a very tired hotel, both inside and out. The exterior paint is peeling, the outdoor communal areas around The Cottage where we stayed were so dirty and unkempt and the exterior of this building was grubby too. The room was at least clean and plenty roomy, but the radiator was on full blast and it was a 23° sunny day. It couldn’t be turned down or off. The service in the restaurant was very slow and the food overpriced for the tiny portions. The constant drone all night of the aircraft flying into East Midlands airport was very noisy. It’s all a bit of a shame, as this place has bags of potential. Sadly, we wouldn’t come back again.

Unable to park. Spaces being saved for others. Told on check when the bar would close 11.45 also states this in the information booklet in bedroom. But was refused a drink on our return at 11.30. Would of gone elsewhere had we known.

2nd Year we've gone while at Donnington Truck racing, Absolutely lovely staff and a great atmosphere, the food - especially the hot stone steaks are to die for. We will be back again next year👌

Fish, chips and peas £17.00 a portion. This a tired village chippy not a gastro pub dining experience. Begrudgingly paid as I was hungry. It wasn’t that great I can assure you. Ridiculously over priced and I won’t be back.

The food was isn’t great for a four star establishment branded by Radisson Blu but the staff are always really helpful and on the ball even during busy times. I would specifically call out a sterling service provided by Magdalena who worked tirelessly to meet my specific dietary needs when the hotel (and restaurant) was teeming at full capacity to accommodate all the hungry guests arriving for a mid-week conference. I would recommend that eating here but keep your options open.

If you haven't tried this restaurant yet, please do, you won't be disappointed and I cannot recommend it enough. This restaurant needs it's own clear listing on Trip Advisor to differentiate it from the Donington Manor Hotel, please claim it Donington Manor! The Sage Restaurant, situated inside the hotel currently has Craig Riley as their head chef. Craig is extremely talented, dishing up Michelin standard food. We had the A La Carte menu here a few weeks ago. I read the excellent reviews but initially discounted the restaurant because dinner service is 6.30-8.30 and we struggle with babysitters. However we happened to meet Craig in the hotel car park during the Castle Donington Fair and he offered to serve us dinner on a Friday afternoon, on a day we had booked off work to celebrate my partners birthday. We're so pleased we went and are already trying to find a way to return with friends as soon as we can. The food was incredible and such good value for money considering the quality and cooking techniques used. We were served more courses than we bargained for and the service was brilliant - they're clearly just a really good bunch that want to wow customers, it was an all round enjoyable experience - and the kind of food you think about for days after!! If you live locally and take Donington Manor for granted, look again and make the effort to go, we are so luckily to have Craig's talent on our door step.

Best ever scotch egg and sausage roll at Parsley Hay kiosk from the smashing Sue and Kevin. A warm welcome on a grotty summer day while cycling the Tissington Trail

Went for a Sunday roast and the food was delicious! Fair value and good service. Nice and quiet location and relaxed atmosphere.

Frankie & Benny’s is the best place to eat and drink/relax in East Mids Airport. All other EMA eateries/bars are Manchester Airport owned or controlled outlets serving the same mediocre below standard trashy food. The airport Hadley needs some class other than F&B. Namely a Weatherspoons. An airport without a Spoons is is poor airport. EMA is the litmus test for that fact. So head for F&B for reasonable food and wines.
