Grove Farm in Blaby

Sticky table, ask to wipe nobody come to clean, dirty chair. Mug always missing from tea area. Just bargain price to eat and to have a beer nothing else . 4.1 star too much for this kind of place. Staff and manager should take a way to improve the cleaning and service for clients.

Excellent, three courses each being tasty and good value . Will definitely return .Evie was attentive and a perfect waitress. Superb, glad we popped in...we are happy and full at a great place and price...

Quick friendly service (Evie!!) Good value food All really good.

Ordered online through Uber, got my order completely wrong, the food was freezing that arrived anyway, trying to ring them and no answering at all to rectify the issue. Not happy in the slightest.

Not as good as it used to be. Much better than last time I was here.

Big portions and great value! Had very good customer service thoroughly enjoyed by all the team.

Disappointing carvery today unfortunately. I'm not sure if they're economising but the amount of meat served was meagre at best, despite purchasing a large meal, the standard size was woeful. Yorkshire puds were smaller than usual and underwhelming. My additionally purchased pigs in blankets were not cooked very well but the chef did exchange them when asked. Gravy was very tasty which was nice.This is the 4th time I've visited Grove Farm and I usually find it to serve tasty food that is good value but this afternoon's visit was a let down unfortunately.

We were served by Gordon who was really friendly and helpful, made sure we had everything we needed and kept checking in to see if we needed anything and got us a takeaway box for our dessert. The food was really good value for money with decent portion sizes.

We used to be very frequent visitors (at least once a week) but stopped going because the standard of food on the carvery deck seemed to have slipped downwards. After receiving a discount code for weekday use in January, we decided to re-visit and see if the standard had improved. Without pre-booking a table, we took a chance and were able to get a table and use the discount code without any problem at all - and were so pleased that we did! We both thoroughly enjoyed our lunchtime carvery - both the service and the food were excellent (in many ways surpassing the carvery meal we had paid more than 10x the amount for on Christmas Day at another local restaurant. We fully intend to return to regular visits to Grove Farm in 2025!

Staff where great I was over chargerd automatically by the till but the staff member sorted it fast and efficiently. The food was amazing and also even better the kids meals were free !!! Lovely jubbly 😊

Carvery was good as usual, staff where pleasant but the vanilla slice that I had as a takeaway doesn’t look anything like what is on show to you.

Great Carvery, plenty of choices of meat and vegetables

A great place to eat and meet we had over 30 people from all over the country meet here on 21 st Dec All our dietary requirements were met and a great day had by all The staff are wonderful, very helpful with our older guests The process to pre order these meals was super easy even with several adjustments I cannot recommend this place enough.........in the words of Arny.....ill be back

Slight issue with a voucher but resolved quickly ☺️ Gordon looked after us, was lovely and super friendly ☺️

The service was exceptional. We didn't have to wait long for our meals. The food tasted good. Gordon went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. With this sort of service, We will definitely come back.

Good food, lots of choice, always hot, very tasty

We ordered from the table & the meal took ages to come, our meals were both well presented they were very tasty although they could have been hotter. I had rump steak medium rare with pepper sauce and my partner had a chicken dish as the fish and chips supper wasn't available. We have eaten at this carvery many times before. We enjoyed the evening thank you 😊

We had a carvery this evening. The food was not up to it's usual standard. Although there was plenty of room, two people were placed so close to us we were practically sharing a table - we could here everything they said and they us. There was no privacy whatsoever.

Really good and tasty food Amazing deserts Quality/price very affordable Amz I would.love to back and recommended! 5*

The food is ok, it’s very standard carvery and burgers offering. We sat near the children’s “play area” and there was nothing really for them to play on, just machines for them to buy things from. Really disappointing because we chose to go to this pub for it being family friendly.

Gordon was brilliant. So polite, so friendly and chatty, would love to have him as a server every time. What a great man all in all. What a server to have! Thanks again gordon!

We opted for the carvery. The customer service was excellent from the Greeter, who sorted a table for us. The person working on the carvery, and especially Martha who was very observant and diligant in ensuring customers were happy with their food and experience at Grove farm.

Could not ask for better service from all the staff and the food is to die for. Even the kids have said the food is fantastic

I choose to have the Carvery. The food was very cool not quite cold. The veg was not cooked properly. The potato was cold. I was looking forward to a nice meal

Had a lovely family meal. Kids always enjoy the play area. The staff are always happy to help Gordon was lovely helpful polite and helped encourage the kids to eat. Overall great experience at grove farm tonight

Very nice prices ok food great service a little slow at times

Lovely meal today and Gordon was very friendly and helpful.

Chips were good. Gordon was an excellent "front of house".

I had a really poor experience at Grove Farm on 30th Dec. We met here for an anniversary dinner with friends/ family. My friends had the carvery but I ordered a bacon and cheese burger (without the bun as I can't eat bread). It took so long to arrive that my friends had pretty much finished eating their carveries. It also arrived without the bacon (??) and a laughable amount of salad in a side bowl (I'm taking one 50 pence-sized lettuce leaf, one slice of tomato, and some onion). I took it to the bar and they whipped my plate back into the kitchen. I had to wait a few minutes but the bacon was added. They'd also replaced the salad with a proper bowl full and apparently replaced the chips with fresh. I took a mouthful of burger and it was cold. Took my plate back to the bar again. My friends by this time had finished their meals. I ended up just asking for a refund, which they did give me but it really wasn't the point. I went home hungry, our special 'anniversary' meal out tainted, and a bitter taste left in my mouth from having such a poor experience.

Food really nice and hot. Great service from Gordon

ok place nice food, good service from all the staff overall pretty good, keep up the good work

Lovely farmhouse inn. Can not fault anything. And Gordon was really pleasant. Thank you 😊

Went for dinner for my sister in laws birthday ordered the food and drinks only my son had a starter. Starter came out all ok then the main meals came out but 3 didn’t we waited about ten mins nothing came out I went to the bar and asked for the other meals and was told they hadn’t came out as one had a starter we had all finished our meals by the time the other three came out so that’s about half hour absolutely disgusting and the manger walked away while I was still speaking to him clearly didn’t give a shite! If you order a starter be prepared to wait 30:/40 minutes for your main! Won’t be coming here again

Great service from Gordon. Turned the aircon off straight away when we requested. Nice food.

Food was excellent staff were wonderful thelooked after my friend and i

We all had a great time. Gordon was really nice and serves with a smile.

From booking the Christmas meal to the very end everything was perfect. We had a couple of picky eaters that didn't like the set adult starters and I requested them to child starters and that was sorted for us...... Food was great as always and at the end I asked to change my pudding and again that too was sorted for me. We even got the table that my partner loves to eat our Christmas dinner at......... The whole experience was perfection. Will continue to go.

I took my mother & a friend for breakfast, the staff, a larger white lady had an attitude, and an Asian man with tattoos. The attitudes of a couple of the staff, the lady just walked around looking fed up & snapped when a customer asked for toast. There ended up being about 4-5 people waiting for toast & she brought about 3 pieces of just white, that wasn't really toasted & we'd been waiting for around 10 minutes. I continued to wait with 3-4 other people for toast, who also wasn't happy with the service, then she comes back again 5-6 mins later with another 3 pieces of white toast, a couple of us wanted brown toast & none of us wanted lightly toasted bread that just seemed like stail bread not actually toast. We also had to wait a ridiculous amount of time for tomatos, my mum 60+ was told by the Asian guy "tomatos have to be at the right temperature darling" with an attitude, she'd be waiting maybe 10 minutes for tomatos to be heated up that she left as her breakfast was getting cold. He called my 60+ mother "darling" I really wasn't happy about this, I found it offensive, so rude & disrespectful. I was then told they would bring some tomatoes & toast to our table after waiting for well over 10 minutes, still no toast or tomatoes & now a cold breakfast. Once the tomatoes finally arrived at our table, even though we'd nearly finished our breakfast now, they were cold, & after the comment with attitude that was just given to my mother. Last but not least, you don't get any drink included with breakfast, this is an extra cost, I think a drink should be included. Overall I wouldn't recommend Grove, go to Gynsills instead, drinks included, tea, coffee, juices, make yourself toast, they have a good selection. Cereals, fruits, cooked breakfast & continental breakfast. We definitely wouldn't be going back to Grove Farm & I will be steering people away. We will be sticking with Gynsills who are much, much better.

We visited Grove Farm on a busy Friday evening and were immediately welcomed by Gordon who was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive throughout. The carvery meal was excellent value for money and included a great selection of vegetables as well as the meat options. Gordon advised us beforehand of wait times for non-carvery options which was helpful when ordering. Great quality food, professional service and family-friendly atmosphere. Thanks again Gordon 👏🏽👏🏽

Good food, good atmosphere. Extra thanks to Gordon the friendly waiter!

Shannon was great! Very kimd and pomite with Excellent service!

We had a lovely lunch nice fast efficient service and Gordon was most welcoming and helpful with a kind friendly manner. We will return soon 👍👍

We were served by Shannon who was very professional and friendly. We stopped in to have a quick lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Christmas dinner was outstanding for all of us, great service, great food and came away very satisfied one of the best We've had as a family Highly recommend

Been for Christmas dinner today was extremely satisfied tables where set up beautifully food was excellent and all staff very friendly and professional I grove a quite a few times and never have a complaint but Christmas dinner was exceptional well done to all the team at the grove

Fantastic Christmas dinner :) thank you Gordon!

Had a lovely festive meal , Gordon was very pleasant and attentive. Good atmosphere.

First time going for breakfast, and we saw santa , we won't be doing breakfast with santa again , santa was like a 20 year old wearing braces. My children knew he wasn't santa. The food was awful, overcooked didn't taste nice ,

We arrived early but were seated straight away. Waitress was very friendly. We ordered meals at the bar and the food came out in good time. The food was all hot and tasty and absolutely no waste.

Food was good but the service was an absolute joke. We pre ordered Christmas dinner with friends. Took an hour for starters to come out, one of our group had his drink totally forgotten. This whole experience took over 3 hours. Large tables around us had been served and had left by the time our waitress came over to our table to tell us the people who were booked to have our table after us had turned up and we were being expected to leave, I had explained that we were still waiting for our deserts. Tried to apologise for the poor service with some free drinks. Absolutely awful.

This is the one of very few places that our additional needs children actually fell safe and comfortable and will eat out at. This was our youngest child's choice for her 16th birthday family meal out. As always, everything was perfect for our children. The additional support and help to myself as an electrical wheelchair user was wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble and the lovely chef from the carvery even helped by dishing out my veg for me and carrying my plate back to my table! Exceptional service all round as usual.

It was lovely atmosphere this morning at the grove . Gordon was, as always very polite and chatty . Food was lovely and looked nice .

Big shout out to all the staff yesterday who catered for the Oadby 50 plus group, you did a fantastic job. Thank you so much.

Very good service and generous portions of food, good ambiance

Food and service were amazing. Kids area is a bit of a let down.

Had a lovely meal Saturday lunchtime, food was good value for money and service was great. We were served by Gordon on the till. We were a large group and had lots of extra requests and fussy eaters. Gordon was super helpful and managed to alter each meal to suit our requests. Great service and very friendly. Thanks Gordon.

Katrina made us feel very welcome Excellent Service Beyond Expectations! We Had issues with carvery food quality. Her attention to detail and the genuine effort to make sure we were satisfied made all the difference. Thankyou 🌟 will be back

Very good food. The staff are pleasant, we were served by Gordon who added some welcome humour. Will very likely visit again.

Visited this pub for the 1st time last night to celebrate xmas with colleagues. All I can say is 11 out of 10!!! The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. Thank you for making our evening so enjoyable. Definitely recommend 👌

Gordan was great and made us feel so welcome. Food was fab and best for uni Christmas dinner

I was impressed with the layout and the "vibe" which may partly be down to it being in the Christmas period. Staff were friendly however had to ask for plates to be removed after each course. The carvery was a good standard with a varied range of meats and veg.

Great place to eat. Food is awesome, wish there was more choice, or it rotated more often. Sometimes a long wait at the bar, but overall a good food and good atmosphere. I wish there was more variety in the choices. It's pretty standard stuff.

Gordon was an excellent waiter, great film recommendations

We were looked after last night by Gordon,lovely chap,always has a smile,very pleasant.

This is now our go to for a carvery at a good price. Well managed and efficient they are creating good food en masse at a price that attracts lots of visitors, and it works.

Had the Sunday roast carvery didn't disappoint very good for value and choice if you want a quieter experience/atmosphere it would probably be better in the week when not so busy but it's busy for a reason on Sunday and it's best to book else you will struggle to get a table

Ordered for delivery at 2pm order did not come till nearly 3.30! And food was stone cold and the roast potatoes and parsnips burnt to a crisp. Awful

Visited here whilst away for work. Very friendly service. Seated me quickly even though it was busy. Gordon was friendly and attentive. Nice atmosphere and carvery was very tasty.

Visited for breakfast and were impressed by the choice and quality, as well as excellent value! Everything was hot, fresh, and staff were friendly too

Great friendly staff, Gordon was very attentive, the food is fantastic. We love coming here for the Sunday carvery, it's very very good

Met up with friends for the Sunday carvery, good food and good service from Gordon.

Lovely carvery! Friendly and welcoming staff, especially Gordon, very nice and a good giggle, thank you very much!

The carvery is delicious!! Superb value for money

Friendly staff. Good quality food and value for money, served relatively quickly. Our daughter was visiting from France and she enjoyed it. For us, it was just as usual. That’s why we keep coming back. Thanks again.

mash potato was salty and the rest of the food was cold. the roast potatoes tasted like cardboard!

It was awesome, delivered with care. Great & would really to others 👍

very tasty carvery, and plenty of it. 👍

Lovely hot meal for a busy sunday.

fish was over done it was cold no tarta sauce not good enough

A great place to grab some food. One of my favorite places to go.

Took wife and son for birthday meal today here for a change as we normally go to Longshoot in Nuneaton. Service good but carvery meat beef was like shoe leather both son and wife disappointed and only had one slice of turkey and beef and you could have cut it thicker with a potato peeler. I wanted to complain but wife wouldn't let me so won't be returning Pity as at Longshoot you get at least 2 cuts of 2 meats with their carvery.

Food and atmosphere where much of a muchness as a regular visitor to farmhouse carvery’s however the service and friendliness of Gordon was superb. What an asset he is to your company

HAD CARVERY ON SUNDAY AND WAS VERY BUSY BUT GOT SERVED PRETTY QUICKLY... WILL GO BACK

Ordered the vegetarian bundle and the pie was missing. Tried to ring Grove Farm several times and no answer. The vegetables were also lukewarm to cold. Overall very poor experience and no support from Grove Farm or just eat.

Tasty food, great service. Big shout to Gordon! Thank you team

Had breakfast here a couple times that I enjoyed. The restaurant is clean and presentable. The staff were attentive and the buffet restocked as needed and the hot chocolate with marshmallows was my fav! Very tasty 😋 I would definitely recommend giving them a go.

Gordon is a lovely man, food was great and lots of it.

Great food Gordon, thank you for your great service. We will be back soon

Great service today and lovely food. Our server, Gordon, was chatty, friendly and attentive.

There were 9 in our group some with dietary needs. Everyone found ample choice of menu at a reasonable price. All of the servers, especially Sarah at our table, were friendly and helpful. Thank you

Good food beef dripping potatoes are back great service no rush lovely experience

When we went it was nice and not to busy on a Thursday evening, no major queues and a chilled atmosphere. Prices are very good value for money. E.g. I had a large cheese burger 🍔 and good portion of chunky chips for around £8! In the city that would easily cost double. Would visit again. Only drawback the soft drinks have no prices stated. FAO management please get new menus to do so as I found £3.80 for a pint of coke expensive 🫰. Update, despite the cost of living crisis that most of us face in the UK currently, costs in the city area have personally put me off eating there. So when I'm next out with friends or family, I'd definitely come over to see if things are still good value during the off peak days of the week.

food was cold had to reheat it not great really

The service and atmosphere is lovely the beef was sadly as tough as boot leather however the rest was beautiful Gordon was very helpful polite and professional

Seated quickly. Fabulous food. Friendly staff.

Jade was amazing this morning a bubble happy lady on a breakfast got me some well done bacon and a lovely coffee from the machine. Food hot and tasty. Thank you

Had a last minute cancellation of my sons party and Gordan sorted us right out! Nothing was too much bother! Amazing customer service and a credit to the team. Thank you so much for all your help Gordan !!

Very dissatisfied with this meal how the meal was served in the container was awful looked like it had been thrown in there was 2 pieces of carrot and on smallest pieces of broccoli the food did not look or taste fresh very disappointed

Ordered a Cauliflower wing salad from here on Friday. I was amazed at how nice it was!! It was huge and very tasty. Great friendly and quick service too. Thank you.

All the staff we very helpful, Amy was lovely and very helpful thank you
