This was a pre-arranged stop on our way to an away game at Derby. They opened early for us. Inside it's like a step back in time to a pub from 50 years ago. Small, friendly and decent pub-grub. I enjoyed a few pints of the Harvest Pale. I really enjoyed my visit.

This place needs a shake up. There is no competition in Kegworth and as a freehouse it is sadly under-par. Too many blonde beers, disinterested bar staff and probably the worst outdoor area for miles around. Three years ago this was a real ale flagship pub, so what I ask has gone wrong?
|
To look at it you wouldn't guess but this was CAMRA Leicestershire pub of the year this year and as both the food and drink are spot on I wouldn't argue.
|
A proper locals' drinking den with a good selection of real ales to chose from. Busy when I was there on a Sunday, perhaps too busy to get a good judgement.
|
Proper Friendly local. 3 seperate rooms. 8 Real Ales on top form including 1 mild. Traditional Food menu looks good although was not being served due to weekly Sunday Carvery. Real fire added to homely feel.
|
Another good friendly boozers pub, good selection of ales served and conditioned extremely well. Good pub grub (especially like the burgers with nearly all the fillings)
|
They usually serve about 5 different cask beers plus the usual fizz offerings in 3 separate drinking rooms. In summertime there is an extensive outdoor area where you can play boules.
This is a lovely little village pub - you know:
log fires in winter, darts, pigeon fanciers' meetings, kiddies welcome - jumpers for goalposts - enduring image
