  “Usual warm friendly welcome from all the team and especially our good friend JP! Excellent service, delicious food and just a wonderful place to enjoy Sunday lunch with Mum, and especially not having to do any preparation, cooking and clearing up! Lots of fun and happy memories of being a regular 30 years ago and all the friends made along the way. Really looking forward to visiting again next week for a get-together with old family friends.”

  “We went on a Saturday lunchtime and were seated quickly(we pre-booked) by friendly happy staff. The food was good although the steak was more well-done than the medium I asked for. The staff were attentive and checked several times that everything was okay. Parking is good, location is good, food is good, staff are good, we will go again.”

  “We had the most stunning day at the Wheatsheaf. We booked a private meal after an intimate wedding service, the Wheatsheaf and Cerise were a dream to work with - they made the day so easy and they couldn't do enough for us to make the day special. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was so relaxed, the attention to detail phenomenal. We booked the ceremony with very short notice and we were worried that we wouldn't find anywhere able to host a meal. We are so, so happy that we were able to book the Wheatsheaf - we throughly recommend them and we can't wait to come back in the future and reminisce about such a wonderful day. A HUGE thank you! x”

  “Service was fast and friendly which made the experience quite pleasant. However the food really let this place down. The tomato soup was refreshing, but it came with non-tasted bread and butter for some reason? The steak and ale pie was 90% mushroom and 10% beef, which really hurt the texture. The blue moon I ordered tasted mainly of detergent (dirty pipes, bottom of barrel?). To top it off you could not tell what the crumble was without asking as it was so without much flavour or sweetness.. Nothing was inedible, nothing was tasty either..”

  “We had a wonderfully warm welcome at the Wheatsheaf. The staff are personable and friendly without being stiff or patronising and the food is lovely; we were sat comfortably at a table for five and the food was as good as I think I’ve had anywhere. Everything was beautifully clean and the prices are very reasonable.”

  “Absolutely 5 star 🌟 the food was perfect. We came here looking for a change and I think it's now become my favourite place to dine. I had the crispy squid and it was, crispy and succulent inside. None of that mass produced rubber calamari crap. For main I had a special. Game pie, partridge, pheasant and rabbit pie, it was sublime. Rich and full of meat, haven't had rabbit in years, I was not disappointed. Why wife had the Stilton beef burger, she was also happy with it. Plenty of cheese, big beef patty and salad. The staff were amazing, attentive but not too much. The building is historic with its crazy layout but they have made it so warm and welcoming with great decor and rawing fires 🔥. We will be back.”

  “Fantastic pub with a large car park hidden behind the pub through an archway on the front. Beer was great. I had Charnwood Vixen which was excellent and I am sure the Landlord would have been a great pint too judging by how well the beer was kept. Food was good, we had the signature stilton burger which was delicious. Also nice tables to sit outside or in the conservatory or inside the pub itself. Great service too!”

  “I enjoyed a delightful lunch here on a sunny Saturday, making the most of the beautiful weather by sitting outside in the sunshine. The atmosphere was relaxing and made the meal even more enjoyable. Since I’m still relatively new to the UK, I’ve been exploring different dishes, and I have to say, this was the best Sunday roast I’ve had so far. The flavours were spot on, with everything cooked to perfection. I also tried the leek and potato soup for the first time, and it was incredibly rich and satisfying. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did, but I’m now a fan. The service was excellent, with attentive staff who made sure everything was just right. Their friendliness and professionalism really stood out, adding to the overall experience. I can’t recommend this place enough and am already looking forward to my next visit.”

  “Absolutely incredible lunch today. A really superb place to eat, faultless in every way it's a long time since I have been able to say that about any UK restaurants. I have gone to a lot of places in the UK of which there is always something wrong. However, this place has it all. Food first rate, service fast and polite, super ambience. All parts of each dish are perfectly executed. It may look simple but the love and care in the kitchen is clear in the taste of the food. I am so impressed I will be returning again. Thanks so much.”
