Gelsmoor Restaurant in Coalville

Ah, Gelsmoor – it's one of those places that just feels like a proper local gem, doesn't it? I've got to say, the steak on a stone is a real highlight; it's such a clever idea, letting you cook it just how you like, and the flavours are spot on from what everyone's raving about. The staff are usually brilliant too, all smiles and on top of things, making you feel right at home in that warm, welcoming atmosphere. It's brilliant for a casual lunch or dinner, with options like the early bird menu offering great value, and the pizzas and pies looking tempting as anything. On the flip side, though, some of the sides can be a letdown – think underwhelming peas or sauce that doesn't quite deliver – and if you're after generous portions, you might leave wanting a bit more. Service isn't always flawless; there've been a few tales of mix-ups that could sour the experience. Still, overall, it's a solid choice for a night out, and I'd pop in again for that steak alone, as long as I keep expectations realistic for the rest.
