Best Contemporary British Restaurants in Market Harborough

We went to the royal oak for our 5 year anniversary and it did not disappoint. It's definitely worth going for the tasting menu as every course is excellent! I had a food intolerance and they were easily able to substitute another dish in. We would definitely recommend it!

All the staff were friendly and attentive in a very real ( Not forced or robotic ) way. The food was presented in a pleasing on the eye way and all fishes flavourful. We were made to feel very welcome

Food was excellent as always but what stands out is the great staff - all friendly and helpful particularly the host who has a charming manner

They just continue to deliver. Spectacular food - some of it reads a bit “fusion” but just trust them. It’s clever, beautifully prepared and presented and absolutely delicious. Cheese custard profiteroles? What? Well yeah. But my goodness they were good. The lavish grating of truffle didn’t hurt either. We had sirloin too - that’ll live long in the memo. Cooked to perfection, seasoned so subtly and wonderfully it needed nothing extra. Worth our total bill just for that. Scallops in dashi? Sensational. And the veg…could be centrepiece dishes in their own. The care and time to execute dishes like this is exceptional. I can take or leave carrots, but not these. These, were special. Service was mainly provided by Luke. Calm, quietly professional and attentive while somehow managing to only be where we needed him when we needed him. What an evening. I can’t believe we left it so long. This place does wonderful food at a very fair price. You’ll leave full, happy and relaxed and likely will have tried a combination you won’t have considered before…but will wish you had.

Mo and his team were amazing! There were 7 of us for an early dinner, including a 3 and 5 year old. Nothing was too much bother for these guys. Menu explained in full, recommendations made. Everyone's food was excellant. It's a long time since I received service of that standard. A fuss was made.of our grandson as it was his birthday. Little chocolate cake with a candle was organised, a lovely finishing touch. Perfect evening, thank you all. Dont change a thing!
