If you are looking for a wide selection of drinks and promotions and a wide food menu, this won't be the place for you. If you like a warm and hospitable atmosphere to get away from it all, this is the ideal place to enjoy a pint. The interior is goregous and homely, with lots of sports and Irish-related memorabilia on display. There is a car park on the opposite side of the road to the pub, next to the football pitch, there should never be any problems parking here. Food is available at the weekends, including a traditional roast and sandwiches, the food isn't exceptional but it is decent enough and isn't to bad price wise.

This pub has attracted our attention many times as we drive past in our drive to London (a little…read moreunder 2 hours South of here). Tonight, on our way driving home from Christmas Tree shopping(we need a 12 foot tree!) we decided to give it a try. The place is clean, inviting with very friendly and prompt staff. We were seated (it was early!) in an almost empty dining room which was slowly filling as we left (6-6:30 on a Saturday). My wife enjoyed an old Mout cider while had a nice glass of Merlot. BTW there is a separate bar area for non-diners. I had a special (lamb stew with dumplings - good old English comfort food!) and Mrs G had a chicken curry. The food was definitely above average - not quite as good as good as we had hoped but a solid 4 stars!

This is by far the best pub in the area. The landlady is fantastically friendly and accomodating and the people are superb. The atmosphere simply can not be matched. They offer a wide selection of beers, ciders and ales, all priced very reasonably. If you are looking for somewhere to unwind, hassle free this is the place to come to. There are many regular nights including a quiz night on the sunday, as well as darts nights and various others. Food is also available most evenings and a basic but good value menu is available. I would heartily recommened this as one of the best pubs in the area.

The Robin Hood is one of 3 pubs in the village of Swannington, which in these days of mass pub…read moreclosures is quite an impressive feat for such a small area. In my opinion this is the best out of the three by virtue of its exceptional food. The pub has a nice balance between a traditional 'homely' village pub and a more modern, town or city centre pub. It has a traditional inetrior, but also has large screen tv's to watch the football, while having the traditional pub staples of a pool table and darts board. There is a wide selection of beers and spirits and the prices are reasonable, especially if you are flexible with what you drink as they do some cracking offers from time to time (a rarity for a village pub). The pub has a good reputation and is usually quite busy, especially at the weekends, but it never feels to cramped and an extremely relaxed and pleasant atmosphere predominates. The pub offers exceptional food. If you are in the area and want to know where to eat, this has by far the best food out of the 3 pubs and the only other option - the Chill 'n' Spice restraunt is only open in the evenings. The Robin Hood does a fantastic sunday roast, with a good range of alternatives, as well as a nice selection of starter and desert options. Prices are not cheap, but the quality is more than worth it.

We came on a Sunday afternoon and had the option of a roast meal, or any item off of the menu, which is good because sometimes the traditional Sunday roast can be a bit too much to eat.

The Victoria (or the Vic as it most commonly known) along with the Emporium superclub in Coalville…read moretown centre are probably the two best known venues in Coalville which people from across the country come to visit. The Vic is recognised as one of the best biker pubs in the entire UK having won many awards over the years. There is always something happening at the Vic, live music is guaranteed almost every night. As it is a biker pub, it caters to a predominantly rock music crowd, but there is a huge diversity in the types of bands that play here, from acoustic inger-songwriters to the heaviest death metal and everything in between. The Vic also hosts some of the most well known cover bands from across the World one of the best examples would be Mentallica (world famous Metallica covers band). These acts generally carry a charge, so if you don't want to see them but go to the pub, you will only be able to sit in the front area of the bar or in the beer garden. The more well known cover bands tend be what are put on at the weekend, while original acts play during the week. The Vic also holds specialist biker nights and provides a camping facilty (at a small charge) for those who want to stay over for the night when travelling or when they hold events. They also serve a good selection of food at very respectable prices, you can get anything frm a full day breakfast to Vegetarian options throughout the day. They also do an excellent curry night that is fantastic value! They tend to hold special events throughout the year, which often have live music on all day. The bar is well stocked and you can get everything from your standard ales to less well known brands. Service is usually swift and prices are average, you can get cheaper pints at places like Weathespoons but they tend to be cheaper than the more pricey modern bars in town. There is also a pool table for those who fancy a game. There really isn't another place like the Vic in the area, if you are at all into rock music or bikes, this is the pub for you.
