What can I say about the King's Arms? I'm at home here. When we moved to the UK, honestly our most…read moredesired feature was walking distance to a pub. We got stumbling distance to one of the best pubs in the country. This place is well-regarded by everyone in the region. I've met people here who give up walking distance to their local to drive here and have a good time. That says something. My first night here I made friends, and each time I've been here since I find myself in good company either with neighbors we've met before, or people who know we're new to the area and want to welcome us. I can't begin to tell you how often a quick pint before dinner turns into a long session at King's Arms. I wouldn't have it any other way. These guys truly embrace the concept of being the center of village activity. No TVs, no WiFi, these things distract from the community. You come here to interact with your friends and neighbors, enjoy a good beer, and enjoy living in the company of others. They regularly have events to bring the village out. The most impressive of which was the dinner they hosted on the night of the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. They served the exact 10-course menu served in first class that evening, and requested everyone bust out their tuxedos and dresses to mark the occasion in grand fashion. It was a remarkable evening. One disappointment, since I have to list one to feel as though I am being fair, is the wine list. We love the temperanillo, but really none of the others. But we're not here to drink wine, we're here to be social! It makes me a little sad that we don't have this type of drinking culture in the US. If you're not an alcoholic, you're not likely be on a first-name basis with the bartenders at a local watering hole. That's why I love walking in here; everyone knows everyone else, they're always happy to see you, they know what you drink, they pour a tasty pint, and are genuinely good people. I dig it.

Best kept secret in the area. This 16th century pub/restaurant is run by a lovely couple (Dave and…read moreJackie) who make you feel welcome every visit. My wife and I have been coming here for nearly three years now and the food is still the best around. Sometimes you may have to wait due to everything being cooked fresh to order but it is well worth the wait. Look out for the specials board which has some of the unusual dishes not normally seen in other restaurants.

First time at this pub. Taken aback by the quality of food and number of real ales. They also have…read moreSan Miguel on draught. Pub not much to look at from outside but worthwhile stopping for a drink at least. Prices are pretty much average for both drinks and food. My wife fancied an Eton Mess which wasn't on the menu. The waitress said they would make one if she wanted! Overall, I would place the quality of food in the "restaurant" bracket, definitely NOT pub grub!

The Old Barn Inn was a warm welcome for this weary traveler who had had a nasty encounter with…read morenature only a few minutes before. I needed a place to escape the rainy elements, sit down, catch my breath and have a small meal. The Old Barn Inn was right there, situated in the small village of Glooston, northeast of Leicester. I was expecting what has been typical, inexpensive, no-thought-put-into-the-meal pub food. But much to my delight, this place far exceeded that expectation, and allowed me to escape for an hour. The young men who own and run this pub, have taken great care into making sure each meal is as fresh, organic and locally-grown as possible. They bake all their own bread daily, the flour comes from a local farm. Also, they make their desserts daily as well. I ordered the Homemade Ciabatta with Brie and Sauteed Mushrooms, which is served with a healthy leafy salad, lightly sprinkled with vinaigrette, and skinny chips, along with a pot of English Breakfast tea. The ciabatta bread had come out of the oven an hour before, and the entire presentation was artfully done. Though I didn't have any dessert, if it's as well made as the ciabatta, it will be incredible. And I have a strong feeling it will not disappoint those who find themselves at The Old Barn Inn, which is now just the pub. The owners live upstairs in the inn quarters. They offer vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes. Dining here is well worth the journey.

AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

The food is quite nice but mainly prepared. It's not overly pricey though so a good choice for a family meal. It's a weird old building, with stairs and nooks all over the place so you can always get somewhere private to sit. They've quite a lot of outdoor space which is nice in the summer and they have heaters for smokers. The only problem is that the outdoor space cradles the car park on the whole so it's not the nicest of vistas!
