    A must go to restaurant if you're in Hinckley or East Shilton. Our 2nd time of visiting and we weren't let down. Beautiful food as always at fantastic prices. I honestly can't rate here high enough. Fantastic work guys πŸ₯°

    Lovely place and friendly staff. Food was very good. Prices are reasonable and alot to choose from on the menu. Probably worth booking a table as it does get busy in the evening/ weekend.

    An amazing meal all round. Bel and the barman were both polite and happy, the meal was amazing (loaded steak 😍) and inexpensive as well. Will definitely be in next time we are up this way.

    Food as always really good, l had the challenge yet though the food was very nice, the information on the challenge is not quite right? As there is no wall of fame for you, as stated in menu?? I did see more challenges come out of the kitchen, but lm sure they received the same as did...a blank response! Come on Hinckley Knight...what happened to your friendly welcome also. ??

    Wanted a table of 8 tonight at 6.15pm told no fully booked! Despite there being tables free and two people behind the bar idly chatting! I pointed out that our bill for 8 meals, desserts and drinks would be considerable to be met with a shrug of the shoulders and a so what attitude! Nice you can afford to lose business and pay staff to mind an empty pub!

    Visited twice as much cheaper than eating at hotel 2 mins drive away food normal pub grub at a reasonable price and steak served on sizing hotplates which is a nice touch. Staff helpful

  • 4/5 Nancy M. 7 months ago on Google
    Staff very friendly, typical pub setting/decor, very reasonable prices for portion size, managed to pop in on a Saturday evening and get a table for 2 (didn't reserve), easy access to break up a journey on the M69

  • 5/5 Christine B. 6 months ago on Google
    Great staff extremely pleasant and helpful. Food lovely cooked well. We had the 4 oz steak and mac and cheese. Salad was a bit sad but pasta tasty and well cooked. Steak perfect. Thoroughly recommended.

  • 5/5 Kirit T. 7 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ian P. 1 year ago on Google
    Kelly at Hinckley Knight is an excellent host and always makes us feel welcome. The establishment is always nice and clean and there is a good car park. There is a new menu with plenty of choices and the food is of good quality. The team always ensure your table is well looked after. Kelly recognises our advance bookings and reserves our favourite table by the window. Thank you.

  • 5/5 Margaret W. 1 year ago on Google
    Tables were available because we had not booked. Plenty of choice on the menu. All three meals were delicious. Price is always reasonable at The Hinckley Knight. We have been before and will go again when in the area. Thank you for a great service.

  • 5/5 Katarzyna B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food πŸ˜‹ I absolutely love Hinckley Knight for it's food and atmosphere. Been there couple of times with husband and family and we were never disappointed. Highly recommended for anyone that enjoy a good steak πŸ₯©πŸ₯©πŸ₯© .

    The Pub currently has an amazing Christmas atmosphere, thanks to the lovely decorations and Christmas tree. As always, we felt at home as soon as we arrived. The welcome at this Pub by Kelly and the rest of the team is always lovely, as they take the time to have a friendly chat and catch up. Food was lovely. Can highly recommend the Hunters Gammon. Perfectly cooked and really tasty. Great value, good food, served by wonderful staff. See you again soon and Happy Christmas to you allπŸŽ„πŸŽ„

    I'm not sure of those 2 plates both had the chicken like uncooked suggy oily..

  • 3/5 James Jukes (. 10 months ago on Google
    Bludclaat! Ordered the 2 x boneless wings with Mac n Cheese & onion rings. Was aiiite, service was average, could smile more but the food was bang on enough for this little belly. There was an old couple (late 60's) could not stop talking to eachother. They mustve said 2 words within 1 hr 30 mins. πŸ‘€ God knows what their bedroom tactics are like, must've been married over 11teen years to become that boring. Anyway after laughin at them hard for 15 minutes I found someones bank card by my foot. Bad admin on their part, foo! Overall average service! 3*

  • 5/5 Octavian S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great warm and cozy place to stop over for food and drinks. Staff is friendly and helpful, and I have had the honor to be served by the lady with the lovely brummie accent. With the decent prices across the drinks and food menu, as well as the service with a smile, I'm looking forward to my next visit!

  • 5/5 Maxine P. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice friendly welcome. Refreshing change tables are not on top of each other, room to move and not actually overhear the next tables conversation. Varied menu, we only wanted something light so we all had dirty chips 2 x curry 1 x hunters, verdict very good! This occasion was a friendly catch up, great venue for this. Nice relaxing atmosphere, good food and company definitely to be repeated.

  • 5/5 Hannah W. 1 year ago on Google
    We ate here tonight for my partners 31st birthday with his father too. Great food and great service from Katie! We all had the steaks which were incredible and starters too. Service was very quick and Katie was very friendly and helpful, even on this hot day! Thank you Katie :)

  • 4/5 Georgie Barnes (WHAT GEORGIE D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely place. Ordering wasn’t as obvious, especially post covid (table service? QR code? Bar order? We weren’t told before sitting). However despite that we had a great little after work dinner. The chicken was so delicious.

  • 5/5 hayley s. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a an absolute delight. We stumbled across it when going back to our hotel. Katie was absolutely amazing. Brilliant customer service skills. Extremely polite and friendly. Food is the best I’ve ever had. If I didn’t live so far away this would be my favourite place for food

  • 5/5 Leigh E. 1 year ago on Google
    Returned to this beautiful pub once again this weekend after a few months since last visit. Always enjoy coming here. Glorious weather and even better service and food. Watched the football in the bar in a joyous atmosphere. Dave the manager and Kelly his partner very welcoming. All the staff are very friendly and can't do enough for you. Can't wait to return.

  • 5/5 Samantha l. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited on a Monday for their amazing Β£5 steak offer. Steak was cooked perfectly and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. I thought I'd try one of the cocktails they currently have on tap I went for the espresso martini and it was presented lovely and was really nice. I will definately be returning to try the other cocktails on offer.

  • 5/5 Nigel M. 1 year ago on Google
    Not the greatest "lovely" pub environment, but OMG so cheap it makes one cheerful! Again, given the prices the food was certainly great value for money. Add in the fact that certain nights have additional "bargain reduced price offers," on steaks, 2-4-Β£10 mains etc, make this "a must go there again" venue!

  • 5/5 Sean C. 2 years ago on Google
    First time at the Hinckley Night, went for lunch today as a group of four. The service was great and the staff very friendly and welcoming. Ordered food and drinks and was very happy with the service, the food was great and a very good price. Will definitely return soon.

  • 5/5 James J. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was excellently cooked, puddings where again good selection, and Nicky made. Great selection and good drinks. Pub was clean and it is a Great local family pub. Lots of friendly staff on. Wait times were okay given how busy they were. Would go back again.

  • 4/5 Keith B. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely food. Service was fast and food was piping hot. Weekday offers were really good and bottle of wine very competitively priced. The only reason for knocking off a star was the decor looks very dated, and the atmosphere in there was very quiet. Having said that, the staff were welcoming and helpful. We would go again (hopefully the A5 isn't closed next time).

  • 5/5 Sue H. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a lovely meal here with my parents today. All staff were really friendly and helpful. Wheelchair accessible, easy to find A wheelchair friendly table and good disabled toilet too. Will definitely be back πŸ˜ƒ

  • 5/5 Paul 2 years ago on Google
    Stopped here on way back from Devon, absolutely brilliant barman 12.30 lunchtime was so friendly and welcoming, the food was ordered at bar, and was taken without being rushed, I will download app next time, and try it. The value for money is amazing, rarely seen in restaurants these days, food came out on skillet hot and sizzling, and lady came back to check everything was o.k. A truly uncomplicated lovely dining experience. Try it I will be going back. Thanks guys. Fantastic well done.

    Decent food, masks seem not to be required for the public. We were served by a rather unfriendly waitress, but decent enough service
