The Tap House in North West Leicestershire

Very nice old public house with a modern twist. The staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The menu was extensive and caters for most requirements. I will be returning again in the future as i thought it was a nice pub in a lovely setting. I would recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Recently moved to Ashby - first time ordering over the phone, the chap was ace! I said I’d be around 6 or 7 minutes, got there, but daunting for me going in ( suffer from depression and anxiety) but OMG! How nice where the people dinning/drinking there. Greeted with smiles and an old lovely man ask how I am ( didn’t even know me) proceed to the dining area, again greeted with smiles & so polite!Order was ready, paid, and a chap with a baby again , thanked me for coming and said bye, again never been there or met anyone before.The food - Amazing! Just perfect! They have gained 3 new regulars!

My wife is disabled and uses a wheelchair. There is no disabled toilet and the cubicles in the ordinary toilet are too narrow for a wheelchair. As a man I should not have to take my wife into the ladies toilet. There was no paper towel and the electric drier was too high for a wheelchair user.The food was excellent and we would like to go again but cannot as things stand. I have made a complaint to the council.

My wife and I stayed here for one night. It was a great choice. The bed was comfortable, everything was clean. We had an excellent stay.

We live a short distance from The Tap House but have only just got around to trying the place. We've since been on a couple of occasions but it won't alas be a regular haunt for us.On a positive note the pie night can be recommended. It was not exactly refined but for the price it is hard to argue with. Decent mash with a tray style pie with absolutely loads of meat. Again a couple of bits of the stewing steak weren't the best but overall its hard to argue with what you get.Our main issue is the pub itself is in a time warp and is frankly a bit grotty. Its stuck in the 70s and in need of a revamp in every possible way. We also found the staff to be ok but clearly there are regulars who get the attention, on both occasions we were practically ignored. Its just not a place to go and chill out for the night. We ate and left almost immediately. Shame but I'm sure they won't care about our lost custom which is sort of the problem they will face attracting new regulars.

Staff were so rude! We asked for a high chair to x3 different members of staff and didn't get one so went and found our own! Took 30 mins just to get a drinks order placed and food plus were told we only had 1 hrs 30 for the table when we booked! Half the food was cold then when asking a staff member for a pot of sauce she slammed it on the table with a face on her.Safe to say we won't be going again and would advise managers to sort their staff out!

Came here after visiting Charnwood Forest. We treated ourselves to the Carvery and a pudding and it was fantastic. The food was perfect and the staff were great. A very cosy and lovely country pub/bar.

Great place and quite possibly the best pie I have ever eaten!!!Came as a birthday party in the marquee , as opposed to a sit down meal, and the food was help yourself 'big tray' pies held under a warming lamp so I was really just expecting something to fill the gap - as that's all that was needed. Wow! All of the food was well, well above that! Huge great big chunks of pure beef steak, not a single ounce of fat or gristle (which is always a fear with steak pie!). I then tried the chicken and ham and that was equally filled to the brim with top quality meat. Plenty of chips, mash, peas and gravy to go with it. I left seriously impressed (and full!).Thank you The Taphouse!

Has its own brewery. Smart place, cosy inside, plenty of staff and the food was good. Sunday dinner is a carvery delivered to your table. They have a pie night on a Wednesday. Well behaved dogs welcome. Would recommend.

This is a classic country pub. We came off the motorway and went here for lunch. They allow dogs in the bar and the marquee, but not in the restaurant area. The lunch was a very reasonably priced two course carvery, with a choice of having a starter or a pudding with it. The mushroom soup was ace. The mains were huge! Definitely no complaints on portion size! And a bucket of gravy! The steak and ale pie was really good, a slice of proper homemade pie. The lemon meringue roulade was excellent too, nice and light, and a lovely way to finish the meal.
