The best restaurants serving British food in Lubenham Harborough East Midlands

This building has such character and we love the open fire and the positioning of it overlooking the village. The Sunday buffet had plenty of choice but the meat was cut wafer thin and seemed a bit mean. Customer service was practically non existent. I can’t comment on the menu as we only had Sunday roast buffet and there was a good choice of meat and veg. Good value for money. A good time was had by all. I hope the new owners can make a success of it.

I found The Queen's Head to be quite underwhelming and not at all reflective of the social media hype surrounding it. The food was average at best—not bad, but certainly nothing special or worth going out of your way for. The pub was almost empty during our visit, which left it lacking any real atmosphere or buzz. While it's a dog-friendly spot, which is a nice touch, there are plenty of other pubs nearby that offer a livelier vibe and far better food. Overall, it didn’t live up to expectations.

We booked for a lunch to fuel ourselves before walking round the locks. The conservatory part felt a bit dated and decor was tacky, also our table was dirty. I was dripped on through the roof but was able to shuffle to the side to avoid this but there was a bit of water on floor. Staff very friendly and attentive as they could be with how busy it was. We waited a good 45/50 minutes for food so were very hungry when food did arrive. My husband had a burger, which he said was okay but nothing special. Lettuce in it was brown and it seemed odd to have raw red onion in it. Chips very good though. I had the homemade chilli in a Yorkshire pudding, it was okay but again nothing special, I felt overpriced at £13.95. Presentation on both meals was very basic. Drinks also seemed expensive. Overall a bit disappointed, wouldn’t return anytime soon.
