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.

Took over 50 minutes to get our food. Very noisy. Dogs everywhere. No service and they asked for a tip! Lemonade was horrible. Chicken was dry. Burrito was bitty and hard

Pie night!!!!!compliments to the chef! The 5 bean pie was superb. The pastry was crispy and light! The filling was delicious well seasoned and packed with flavour. This is the best pie I have tasted! Great presentation and good value. Thank you !!!

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.

Everything was excellent will be going next year

Went for lunch. Excellent service by the staff, food arrived quickly and was very good. Broad menu selection and lots of parking. Recommend.

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

Can't fault it in any way! Vegetarian option not run of the mill veggie. Excellent! Update 7 August 2024. Delighted to say the Chandlers is still excellent. Thank goodness we live within 15 minutes drive. October 2024. Can't fault the Chandlers, if you haven't been you need to go. Thanks to all the friendly staff for the lovely atmosphere.

Great local pub feel. New dart area has been added that looks amazing along with a great pool table.

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.

We recently attended for Sunday lunch and it was absolutely fantastic. Well presented, nicely cooked fresh food to die for. Furthermore the excellent team went above and beyond to cater for our very fussy 14 year old. The atmosphere was very welcoming (as always) and the whole of the team are helpful and friendly. Thank you all. Highly recommended.

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.

Great food here today, the waitress Zara was brilliant and very helpful, and probably my favourite cos she was wearing Adidas trainers!! Good job!!

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.
