Stephen and Tracy Fitzpatrick, who also run The Joiners Arms at Bruntingthorpe, are the winning duo behind this sixteenth-century village inn with four rooms, three miles south of Market Harborough; the wide-ranging menu tips its hat to fish ‘n’ chips on Friday, and takes in thrice-weekly ‘Auberge Suppers’, and there are “lovely gardens to go with the excellent food”. Tip Tip – it’s “worth staying for the superb veggie breakfast”.

“Very consistent, high-quality pub food” is on the menu at this sixteenth-century village inn-with-rooms south of Market Harborough that was modernised in a two-year refurbishment a few years back. Owners Stephen and Tracy Fitzpatrick also run the Joiners Arms at Bruntingthorpe (see also).

“A lovely beer garden” (which the dining room overlooks) is a feature of this attractive pub, a few miles south of Market Harborough. Nothing but good vibes for the scoff either – “a consistent if predictable menu… never had a bad meal yet”.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
