The best restaurants serving British food in Harborough East Midlands

Stayed here overnight, the room was beautiful and spotless ditto bathroom. We opted to eat in the restaurant and the food was delicious and plentiful, it’s probably the best vegetarian lasagne I’ve eaten, there was a good choice for vegetarians , my husband really enjoyed the gammon. We were both so full we couldn’t manage a pudding. The bar was really busy but we couldn’t hear a word from our room. I slept for nearly 9 hours which is rare for me. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, they are certainly an asset to the business that’s for certain. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Excellent farm shop, plenty of parking, the cafe is always busy usually with a queue, but the food is always good and staff friendly, plenty of good produce in the shop too. Worth a visit

Very welcoming and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble with my food allergy. We had Sunday roast which was delicious and plentiful and after a short break we found room for dessert. Will definitely visit again when in the area.

An Absolute Gem in the Heart of the Countryside! I’m not from around the area, but during my stay, I found myself coming back to The Staff of Life Pub every single day—and with good reason! The food here is simply out of this world. From the mouth-watering tapas, which were a delightful mix of flavors and textures, to the traditional roast dinner that was as comforting as it was delicious, everything was cooked to perfection. And don’t even get me started on the apple pie—it’s truly to die for. Each bite was a slice of heaven, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Beyond the food, the ambience of the pub is fantastic. It has that perfect blend of warm, cozy, and welcoming, with a lively atmosphere that makes you feel at home, whether you're a regular or just passing through. The décor is charming, and the subtle lighting creates a wonderfully relaxed vibe. What really made my experience special was the incredible service, particularly from Sharon. She is such a gem—warm, attentive, and always ready with a smile. Sharon made sure that every visit was memorable and went out of her way to ensure everything was perfect. Whether you're local or just visiting, The Staff of Life is a must-visit. The food, the service, and the atmosphere are simply unbeatable. I’ll definitely be back!

I’m a frequent visitor to this wonderful place. For the farm shop and the cafe. Everything is excellent quality. Had Christmas dinner today. Absolutely delicious. All staff here go above and beyond for there customers.

Located in the lovely south Leicestershire village of East Langton, the pub is excellent and the food is wonderful. Sunday lunch was really busy so book ahead. We’ll be back again, we both said how good it was.

We had been meaning to visit this village pub after a friend had recommended it. The 'Eat Out' discounted scheme gave us the main reason to give it a go. The starter of tomato and basil soup was steaming hot and delicious,served with crusty bread. I was offered mackerel salad and was not disappointed; delicious served with a bowl of new potatoes. Hubby was served a rather large beef burger and cheese with a side of chips. He has a hearty appetite and it was more than enough for him. The service was warm and friendly, without being intrusive. Had we had paid the full non- discounted bill, we would have been very happy at the price. Listening to the staff taking bookings this is a popular pub You can sit outside or indoors for meals I could see the walled garden, which looked very inviting. I think this is well worth another visit .

Haven’t been here for at least 2 years. In the past we found the cafe very friendly with high quality food. First of all I was surprised how empty it was. In the past we were lucky to get a table. This should have been a sign. I sat down to a sticky table. I ordered a burger with chips. I asked if it could come as a cheeseburger. What arrived was a skinny beef patty on a basic un buttered Morrisons roll. No relish, onion, tomato. And the cheese! They dolloped a load of cheap grated cheese on it. The chops were from frozen and the salad garnish was dry as a bone. I had to go find some vinegar. There was no salt in the cheap plastic ‘Aldi’ salt cellar. No serviettes anywhere. I’m not even going to discuss my wife’s frozen ‘Fish & Chips’ with watered down mushy peas. I was so disappointed and will never visit this cafe again. Luckily there is lots of choice in Lutterworth.

Visited here as it was highly recommended on TripAdvisor so thought I’d give it a go. We had the breakfast bap and ciabatta. Food wise it was really nice but not sure if it was a local supplier as there is a butchers on site. If they are then this should be advertised. People love eating local produce. The main thing that let it down was the cleanliness. With coronavirus going around and on the rise we now expect premises to be super clean. There was so much dust on window ledges, plug sockets and tops of seating. A lot of flies around too - you really could do with a fly killer front of house. I sincerely hope there’s one in the kitchen. All in all it was a nice morning. Nice coffee and nice staff. Just needs some more attention to detail

I would say this was the best cafe/restaurant meal I have had in Harborough. Absolutely delicious! The photo below does not do it justice. Super friendly staff and I am looking forward to trying out the wine and deli night.

Always a treat! Had an absolutely scrummy club sandwich. The surroundings are quirky, the service excellent and the simple food beautifully cooked. Marvellous!

We haven't been to Kilworth House for a very long time but thought it was about time to give it a another go! Well you won't be disappointed - the food in the The Wordsworth was amazing! We have been to many Michelin starred restaurants and I must say that this would not look out of place! We were very well looked after. The only I would say is that they need another dish per course on the menu as there were only 3 starters, 3 main courses etc. Also it was a shame that there wasn't more people in the restaurant but I suppose it is January. We will definitely be going back!

I was not impressed with the undercooked sausage and bacon, the toast was just buttered bread, not a great start to a day.

Great place the staff are really good Dan who works behind the bar is a great guy I would really recommend this pub to stay clean tidy feels like home from home

Stayed here while doing PADI dive qualification dives over at Stoney Cove. This place is a real piece of history as an old Coaching Inn. Lacked some of the mod cons of contemporary hotels but if you want to step back in time this is your place. Nice bar, lovely breakfast - the lady who served was wonderfully attentive and there was a real sense of family. Outside there is a passageway where I guess the old coaches would have come through but now it's an amazing piece of art is only how I can describe it you have to see it to understand. All in all well worth a visit and I'd happily stay here again. Cheers
