The best restaurants serving British food in Forest Bradgate Charnwood East Midlands

I ordered a cheese scone. The first one was rock hard and like a bisucit so had to be sent back. The second one had been warmed in the microwave as it was soft and spongy and no hint of any actual cheese. I was with friends otherwise I would have compalined again. The only way to eat it was by using all the onion jam on it. It is rare for me to complain but this was very poor. The sandwiches we had were ok but then it would be difficult to get a sandwhich and some crips wrong. And the prices are a bit steep too. Sad and disappointing.

Wrong food delivered after a hour and half wait and still waiting for right things iv ordered to come

I don’t know what has happened as I’ve always enjoyed my breakfast here but today was very disappointing. The tiny amount of bacon was overcooked and dry, the egg was hard and quite tasteless, the mushroom hardly warm and the beans very runny. I know it’s quite expensive here but I would expect a top class breakfast for that price.

It used to be a great stop off for lunch post a Bradgate morning walk . It was always packed with locals as well as visitors wanting lunch . We noticed it when we walked in ……hardly anything in the display cabinet bar a dozen small quiches and not much of a cake selection . No specials either ! No hot food could be ordered before 12 so we had tea …..no China cups and lots anymore either . When it reached 12 one of us had the house burger …..came in a dried out toasted bun with a lettuce leaf, small piece of tomato and a bit of onion . Salsa on the side . The bun was dry and tasted old , it could have done with mayo or something to spruce it up and soften the blow . It wasn’t good at all . The other had quiche and salad which was ok - a good portion of chips and salad . The service could be better , the tea came out with what was clearly a damaged cup but no attempt to replace it . We asked for some tap water …….10 minutes and nothing , clearly it had been forgotten , even though they were not busy. Asked again and it did arrive . No one at any point asked how our food was , they were quick to clear our table of food plates so we also made a quick exit . As it wasn’t busy it should have made us wary and overall I’m afraid if this is the new standard it isn’t longed for this world . Two generations of my family have lived in the village and this was always a welcome trip . Not now - sorry but give it a miss.

Excellent value for money on the lunch deal, was not expecting such a huge portion. Food was delicious, outdoor seating area really nice and peaceful. Staff were friendly. A little slow for food to come out which can be challenging with a baby but definitely worth the wait.

Excellent food and excellent service from Elivia and Sam. Definitely coming again and will 100% recommend to others!!

Visited the Wheatsheaf for our annual lunch - it’s a bit of a drive from where we live, but well worth it. The staff are, as always, welcoming and professional, and make time to help you decide which of their wonderful food offerings to choose. We both had the Wheatsheaf Smokie for lunch - fantastic! Would visit more regularly if we lived closer but, for now, we’re happy with this annual treat x

Been here a few times in the past, and always had a nice meal. However, this time I'm afraid it was not good. Don't think we'll bother with it again!!
