The Wheatsheaf Inn — Restaurant in Charnwood

We travelled 4 hours down for an engagement meal where two families were supposed to meet for the first time. We’d booked a table with plenty of notice that we will be bringing a dog (dog friendly restaurant). Upon arriving we were rudely told the area we’d been seated in we could not take our dog into even though we’d made it CLEAR that we would have one. The families had to be split with 2 members having to be seated downstairs with the dog separately. The manager was rude and unhelpful, and didn’t seem to believe that we’d told them about a dog - stated he will be listening to the call - go ahead!

The food was over priced, between four roast dinners we got one bowl of veg and a dribble of gravy and 2-3 small frozen roast potatoes.

The waiting staff were lovely and tried to make our visit more enjoyable however completely ruined by...

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...

I came here for the first time for Sunday lunch, and it definitely won't be my last time!

The building looks lovely from the outside, and has a feeling of a cosy traditional pub on the inside.

We all ordered roast dinners and everyone loved their food and the servers were super friendly and accommodating.

In my opinion, it's one of the best roast dinners in the area. The meat was cooked to perfection, the potatoes were excellent, vegetables were tasty and Yorkshire was NOT burnt!!! (like most other restaurants 🤣)

Disappointingly, there was no cauliflower cheese left, but the staff were nice enough to offer broccoli cheese as an alternative!

It's definitely worth a visit if you have not...
