The best restaurants serving British food in Harborough East Midlands

Lovely friendly pub, with an old world charm and fabulous welcome. Like many pubs these days it's not able to provide food as owner has a second job. I only marked down due to opening times being wrong. Opens at 4pm at moment, that said everyone coming in was treated like family.

Went for breakfast and our only other experience in one of their lounges was that our food wasn’t hot enough. So we tried this one whilst staying in the hotel next door. I had the lounge breakfast and my partner the smashed avocado brunch. I’m guessing you already know what’s coming….. my breakfast was just about warm enough but my partners food was cold in places and had to be sent back. When it returned I’d already finished my meal and it still wasn’t all hot. We think that a lot of the items are already cooked and kept warm. A tip for them would be to get their plates hot as this would definitely help. 2 visits from us but we won’t be coming again. £31.25 for 2 meals and 2 coffees at breakfast time should be of a lot higher standard. Your restaurants are very nice but if the food isn’t right then people like us won’t return.

Easily one of the best Sunday roast’s about! The roast beef is my go to and it’s never disappointed. Remember to bang on a side of cauliflower cheese too! The Monday - Saturday menu is also really good. There’s always familiar favourites, but the menu changes throughout the seasons! Steak, pies, Billy burger, fish and chips are always really good! They also have pizza’s available Thursday to Sunday! High quality, fresh local ingredients (including some grown on site, I believe). Good selection of beers too - the recent(ish) addition of Steeplechase is appreciated! 👍

This was a really lovely little place to have morning coffee, we had done a lot of travelling this day, stopped off in Lutterworth & superb morning coffee & cake was on offer here. The staff were so nice & very very friendly.

Lovely pub and the food was very nice. Recommended!!

Had a family meal out here and it was good. We made a mistake with our booking and booked for Saturday when we meant Friday but they were very accommodating and squeezed us in. I will definitely return again.

Didn't eat here but it has a fabulous beer garden and the staff were very nice. Board games at the bar were brilliant to keep the kids amused

Staff were excellent, food was amazing. Very nice and laid back atmosphere and decor. Will be hoping to pop back again soon

Many of my friends have raved about this restaurant and we had never been. So after realising it was closing, we just had to book. It was not what we expected - bright lights and bare tables. Not our thing. The arrival greeting was ok but not special and no explanation or interest in us as 1st timers. The food was good and very tasty but it was expected at the price. The wine choice was a different matter. We order one red and one white, not cheap. The white wine arrived by a very young waiter who poured the wine with no option to taste and it was NOT cold. Unbelievable! When asked why it was not cold he said there was ice in the ice bucket. Not a good start to the meal, The waitress leaned over me every time to serve my friend and they didn’t offer new cutlery for each course. Maybe they have lost interest now it’s closing, very sad as we had heard such excellent reviews.

Amazing and tasty vegetarian lasagne. Presented lovely

Insane service and quality pizza and Guiness is always perfect staff are lovely and nothing is to much for them xxxxxxxx

Nice local village hotel/pub. Several dining areas of different sizes. We ate in the main bar area, which had a cosy feel with an enormous fireplace. Small but interesting lunch menu with some unusual options e.g. bacon wrapped stuffed jalapeno peppers (which were delicious). Seafood pasta was excellent. Loved the petit four as a dessert option with a coffee for afters. Delicious small sweet mouthfuls rather than a full sized dessert. Local beers on tap as well. Would definitely return. Highly Recommended.

I don’t normally do reviews but I feel absolutely ripped of tonight with my meal. I had a giant Yorkshire pudding which I order beef which they ran out of so was left with sausage or chicken, I chose the sausage. When it came it was no bigger than a side plate with 2 sausages a couple of spoonfuls of bland mash potatoes and peas with weak gravy, for £16.75. My partner had a beef and ale pie and the pastry was raw still.

Booked The orangery restaurant to celebrate my birthday although the mixed reviews left me wondering if I might be disappointed. My experience was that of an elegant evening in opulent surroundings with good service. We were greeted warmly and seated at table 16 with lovely vistas across the terrace and extensive grounds. Service was efficient and non-invasive. We chose carrot soup for my hubbie and Thai fishcakes for me served wifh warmed breads and butter as our starters. Our mains choices were sirloin steak for my hubbie and pork tenderloin for me -both beautifully cooked and full of flavour.We ordered a lemon and lime, a 175ml glass of Shiraz for my hubbie and a gin and soda for me. We were quite full by then, so didn't want a pudding but ordered a coffee from Keira at the restaurant bar which was served in the lounge.We asked if there was any light accompaniment with the coffee and Keira said normally no but she would try to source something.She came up trumps with some yummy petit fours.We had a second round of coffees again served by Keira. I finished off my meal with a Bailey's. Keira had a very pleasant personality and was definitely a people person. She looked after us royally and made our after dinner experience a very pleasant one. The grounds are extensive with lovely vistas and I enjoyed watching dusk descending from the terrace area. I must mention the lavatories which are always a marker for an establishment's hygiene and general standards and they were super clean and well-maintained. There was plenty of parking with an overspill car park and the lounge area was comfortably furnished again with lovely views across the terrace. A little, low-level background music would be nice in the lounge( in the evening only though.) One slight negative was the lounge was on the chilly side and needed the fire to be lit as I needed to keep my jacket on. All-in-all, an elegant evening wifh tasty food and not expensive.Total cost: £115 and well worth it in my book.I had a lovely, memorable birthday meal.So thank you to the team, the kitchens and especially Keira from two very happy bunnies.We will return.

A lovely quiet pub with great beer and fantastic food. After a day on the boat this is a great venue to relax and have a good meal before retiring back to the boat for the night.
