The Finch's Arms

Great food, service and location, never fails to please. Views terrific, book a table by the window for lovely view. Superb garden seating area for summer dining.

The finches arms is a lovely pub/restaurant, parking is a problem as the car park is small. We went at lunchtime and were offered a bar and restaurant menu so there was lots of choice. The standard of food was excellent, however my choice of goats cheese tart was a little bland and slightly undercooked. My husband had the venison which he thoroughly enjoyed. In all for two starters, two mains and two alcoholic drinks the bill came to £53......this for me fell into the average to slightly expensive range, but the surroundings and food more than made up for it. In all a nice lunch in a very pretty village.

Our first visit, certainly won't be the last. Service and food was excellent, thoroughly enjoyed the busy atmosphere. Menu choices were varied and interesting, portions better than expected and a good choice of real ale.

Fantastic Mother's Day meal, great service, great value food. Would definitely visit again. Had a lovely table overlooking Rutland water so that was really nice too

Great food brilliant service the waiting staff and the lady behind the bar could not have been more hospitable. I had the lunch set menu - risotto and chicken with creamed celeriac and hubby pigeon and puy lentils - absolutely delish will be coming back soon 😊

We had a wonderful lunch at the Finch's Arms. The food was amazing, the staff were extremely attentive (without being over the top), and the surroundings were spectacular.

Despite calling in advance and being assured that they would be able to cater for vegetarian and gluten free diets, there was a very limited choice. Reception and seating arrangements were a bit chaotic too.

Marvellous food and service everyone we made contact with was well informed and very professional this has always been mine and my friends favourite place to go well done Colin

It's a beautiful pub in a great location. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming and unobtrusively friendly. The food is wonderful and I ate far more than I should! Never at any time did we feel rushed but there was always somebody there when we needed something too. We were a large family party of 12 ranging in age from my daughter of 11 to my father of 81 and we all felt equally welcome and relaxed. Even when my dad (who is somewhat confused these days) wandered into the kitchen for a chat. They didn't bat an eyelid, just helped him out with good humour and tact.

Friendly and helpful, good food and pleasant environment, but we had to bring our own baby chair. The review software needs these eight filler words.

Lovely location, attentive staff and varied and tasty food. Only criticism, starter portions on the small side a little more on the plate would be welcome.

We found this by chance and so glad we did! Fantastic service and wonderful food. We've just booked a night's stay for April. Cannot recommend this great place enough.

Food was good, they don't have any high chairs ( we had to take a two year old with us, but they were patient with his roaming tendencies. Nice bar nice building

Great food and service. Very friendly. Couldn't have been nicer when my friend spilt his G & T and they replaced it free of charge. And of course lovely views

Beautiful food, excellent service and lovely view. The serving staff we happy to change our table, and then rotate it for us so we could both see out of the window. Both meals were delicious.

Lovely setting. Choice of sitting in the bar in front of a nice roaring fire or in the restaurant with views overlooking Rutland Water. We chose the roaring fire as it was a cold wet day, lovely!! We went for lunch ad it was my husband's birthday. The meal choices offered were very varied it was hard to choose. The staff were all very friendly and the food was lovely. I would recommend this restaurant if you appreciate good food and a pleasant atmosphere.

We have been to the Finch's before but with a crowd. This is the first time that we were just two. We were well looked after and the food was lovely. We were celebrating a 70th birthday so it was a special treat anyway, made extra special by the staff who were all charming.

Easy to book online-set meal reasonably priced- service excellent- we dined in the old bar which is old but without view. The new part has a magnificent view of rutland water. Nice place

Lovely food, great atmosphere and attentive stall. All at a reasonable cost. The setting is magnificent. We would certainly retur. All in all a great find.

Good service, good food and a restaurant capable of holding large and small groups in a cosy atmosphere! Just perfect for returning from a wind swept walk.

The service was a bit brusque.We arrived at 7.30 and told the kitchens were about to close so had to hurry to order the food.. Strawberries were straight out of the fridge and cream watered down.Otherwise food was well presented and good.

We were 40 minutes early for our booking, but made welcome and comfortable while our table was prepared and laid for us. The service was attentive yet relaxed and the food was first rate. We will be back

Easy to you. Costs nothing and you get something for it! That doesn't happen that often now does it! I would recommend using this system.

Lovely food and good service. Attentive staff. Lovely location. Will definitely go again and would recommend to friends for a visit. Perfect lunch time venue

Great food, attentive and friendly service and a cosy atmosphere, highly recommended for midweek dinner in the bar or occasion event in the large restaurant area.

Such a lovely meal for my Day's birthday. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, phenominal food and great wine. Definitely be returning for another visit!

Really disappointed. Cold poorly lit resturant. Set menu starter ok but, main and desert a let down. Staff polite but, overwhelmed despite only being a quarter full. Will not go back.

First time here and will definitely return. Everything we chose off the menu was absolutely delicious . Great setting overlooking rutland water,what a great find

This was our second visit and I am happy to say it's not the last. It takes us almost two hours to reach the Finch's Arms, it is worth every mile! Regards C.M.

We had a nice meal yet they forgot to charge us on the bill for the main courses and extras.we owned up on paying the bill yet the chap who we delt with was not grateful at all that we did ..I would expect mayb even a jesture of a couple of sweets for free or something but no nothing ...would not own up next time so the bill went from £46 to £113.

Excellent food. Delightful situation. Young and inexperienced waiting staff. Incorrect bill required correction. Didn't marr overall enjoyable experience. We would certainly return to Finch's Arms.

Great food, great service, great location. A warm welcome and a roaring fire! What more can I say? Highly recommended. Will visit again, hopefully soon.

Had a lovely meal it was everything we expected with great food I had the beef and my son had lamb..only complaint was not enough gravy but we asked for more and they were very happy to oblige

Great service and a lovely three course lunch. The setting is fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We Will definitely be returning very soon.

Lovely setting, interesting menu. Service just a tad slow but not to the point of it becoming Irritating. We enjoyed the overall experience and will definitely return.

Friendly staff , great food and a beautiful location,we arrived around mid day and had lunch in the court yard , and then had friends meet us for dinner in the evenin the service through out the day was first class
