The Packe Arms in Loughborough

Ella very pleasant, happy to help with a big smile. Only her 2nd shift very attentive and nothing was to much trouble. Food was amazing, Halibut for main then choc trio for desert. Very relaxed atmosphere. Definitely our go to place from now on.

Wonderful welcome, excellent staff, great all round experience, fantastic food followed by nostalgic allotment crumble. Will definitely come again. Also our server Becky was amazing and she made us feel comfortable and welcoming. Top marks all round. There’s something spooky behind the little door 😜

I've been here on a few occasions to complete work on site... All the staff here at the Packe Arms are friendly and approachable... I've always received a warm welcome from Nic and the team... Thank you 🙂 This listed pub is already very clean and comfortable throughout, but I'm told it's going to have a bit of a refurb shortly. The outside seating really catches the sun and it has a large free carpark. This place has a great reputation for food and service ... The food coming from the kitchen looks fresh and well presented and always lots of happy diners in whenever I've visited. My Thanks to Nic and the rest of the team for your continued support during my visits. Damian 😎

Popped in for a Boxing Day dining treat to ourselves, and were not disappointed! I’ve hiked past The Packe Arms many times and always thought about paying it a visit – and when I spotted their festive menu last week, I could resist no longer! We were served by the delightful and attentive James – a chap who could give a master-class in table waiting and service – and chose from the three course menu of the day. The biggest challenge: narrowing down our selection – as the pretty much everything sounded delicious. The food was swiftly delivered, and clearly prepared with expertise and flare. Appreciated all the more the option to delay the desert course for a brief while to let us digest the previous two a little first. Portion sizes were good, generous even, and we especially enjoyed our roast turkey dinners (having had to miss out at home the day before). Starters were also exceptional, but for me personally the puddings were out of this world. My Trio of Chocolate deserts were simply (sinfully!) incredible. Feel like I won’t need to eat for another week. Everyone we spoke to was helpful, friendly and accommodating – from arrival, through my wife’s minor substitutions for her veg, to paying the bill. Frankly, I’m already looking forward to my next visit here soon! Thank you to everyone involved in making our Christmas this year just a little bit more special. :)

From the moment we stepped through the door we were greeted by friendly staff and shown to our table. There was plenty to choose from on the menu and the staff were attentive to the children too (there was an elf hunt). The food was a little bit pricey but well worth the extra few pounds as the food was absolutely delicious. A real treat out.
