Cafe in Rugby

“We came here for the first time having come for a walk and we were really hungry! We used the lift to get upstairs which was quite honestly terrifying, only to find out you can enter via the slope at the top The ladies were so nice and made sure we had a good table with our buggy. Way more choice then we thought I had a jacket potato with cheese and tuna My husband a burger, food was nice, burger quite expensive but it did look good when it came and the chips, salad and onion rings were yummy Service was brilliant very quick and friendly There is lots of adverts for organised events and walks etc.”

“La casa loco is here and servers great mexican food. There is also a great cocktail bar downstairs”

“Very delicious food and pudding the staff JOANA IS VERY FRIENDLY AND GOOD SERVICE will definitely visit again”

“Excellent pub. Great for a small social gathering especially on the weekends. Staff are great and never fail to give a joke to leave you left laughing”

“What a lovely place! The staff are very kind and friendly, and my time here became a wonderful memory.”

“Honestly one of the best Sunday Roasts going around Rugby to date! Partners burger was amazing too! It's been a good handful of years since I last went here but definitely going to be back!”

“Good selection of beers. Super friendly staff. Ample parking and beer garden.”

“Seven of us went in today for a bit of lunch. We knew it might be busy but we took our chances. 20 to 30 minute wait for food was explained as we ordered. Not a problem. When the food came it was delicious. The service was spot on and we could tell that the staff were slightly stressed with it being so busy, but they delivered and made us very happy. Thank you so much The Bear.”

“Despite growing up in the area this was my first "proper" time at The George and, have to say, first impressions were very good. Light, bright decor inside with plenty of seating options, including a dedicated dining area for meals and a spacious beer garden. Good atmosphere inside, with relaxing selection of background music that wasn't so loud as to be intrusive. Service was brilliant throughout, from the bright, friendly greeting on our arrival to the attentive staff looking after us during meal. Food allergy advised at time of booking was reiterated by the staff when taking our orders, which was reassuring. And, on the subject of the meal, the food was excellent - good portion sizes, very tasty and reasonably priced too. Everyone in our group was very happy with what they had. Would definitely recommend and, although we don't really get out much, we'll definitely be back.”

“Great pub located close to the canal, really friendly owner, allowed us to wash our clothes in the washing machine for a fair price. The food was great pub food, came out quickly, well priced. The drinks are priced well also. If you're coming through on a canal boat there is a mooring nearby so you can stop and eat/drink. They also have facilities for people in motorhomes to park up and stay for the night, really accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend if you're in the area.”

“Best place to listen to live bands and relax with a nice cold beer. Lots if space, available for booking.”

“I returned to Rugby from Canada for a funeral a week before Christmas 2022. I had a steak and kidney pie and chips, the next day, fish and chips. Both meals were as good as I remember from my youth. The staff were terrific and funny. The generous fish is consist with the name “Extra Fish Bar.””

“Absolutely awesome little retreat since Simon took over. Thank you xx”

“Friendly local pub with good prices, clean toilets and helpful staff. Nice and tidy veer garden but real ales are often not served”

“If you haven't been to the Shoulder of Mutton in Grandborough yet you're missing out! Delicious Bangladeshi food, nothing standard here all homemade and delicious, an owner who really cares and entertains through your meal, i can't recommend this place enough, we will be back when next in the area!”

“Stayed here because I was heading to SWB Motorsports, its less than a mile away. The Dun Cow was busy when we stayed, maybe due to Christmas, but more likely because the staff were so friendly, despite being busy. We had evening meals and breakfast - fantastic choice of food, happy to make small changes on the menu to meet your needs, very alert to any allergens. Our room, the Draycote, could accommodate a family if required, had a very clean and enormous shower room and the most gloriously uneven, quirky floor due to the age of the building. The bed was really comfy (I like a firm mattress) which helped me sleep quite soundly, it covered up the only downside (my husband heard the traffic) of being alongside a busy crossroads.”

“Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Homely setting and perfect for all. Sam was incredibly helpful and remembered my order after just the once. Seb and Christianna were also very nice and accommodating. Recommended”

“Really good family pub. I don’t normally leave reviews unless I’m particularly impressed and I am here. Ticks all the boxes, play area, colouring and crayons for the kids. A decent pint, nice traditional but well kept decor with indoor and outdoor background music. The food is really good and incredibly cheap & great value. The icing on the cake is the staff and service. Young well mannered and helpful people who are a credit to the establishment. Well done, We’l definitely be back.”

“Fantastic staff and hospitality. Lisa is such a wonderful person and is very accommodating. Never a bad experience which is rare nowadays in pubs. All the staff are very welcoming to our football team every week. 10/10 best pub in rugby !”

“Very reasonable drink prices. Lots to do as well, 2 pool tables and a dartboard. The Landlord Adam was a breath of fresh air.”

“Amazing fish and chips and one of the best battered sausages I’ve ever had. Start off with the fish, fresh Grimsby fish so soft and tender melts in your mouth with a light thin crispy batter which doesn’t stick to the paper either! Next the chips are probably the best chippy chips I’ve had on a consistent level, they burn my fingers upon first touch and the steam that’s built up inside just makes the chips almost break into mash, lovely and soft every single time! Now the battered sausages, 90% of the time have been wonderfully crisp on the outside and steaming hot on inside, very good quality proper pork chippy sausage. Lastly forgot to mention it’s probably around 20% cheaper then most high street chippies, £2 battered sausages, £5 massive huge enough to feed 7 easy large chips(around 8 scoops) and £7 for the extra large haddock or cod. Forgot to mention the very authentic chippy curry sauce made to absolute perfection 100% of the time!£1.40 for a large! This place is a little gem I’d travel 20+ miles for this everytime it’s bang on! Thanks guys - Nick”

“Fantastic place for drinks and food. Needed a new place to go for a drink after I've visited every pub and restaurants in Coventry. I drove from Cov to Rugby and I bet, I wasn't disappointed. Great setting, large space, fantastic staff, and great meal. Oh, and the streetside view is marvellous. I will be ungrateful not to mention the spacious car park they've got. I highly recommend this pub.”

“Lovely staff friendly & good vibe”

“Excellent Nero. Coffee is well prepared and hot ! Clean environment, empty cups and plates are cleared promptly and service is friendly. One of the best Neros I have been to. Thank you.”

“Loved it. Felt like a special meal out, even though it was just a quick family dinner on a Thursday evening. The staff were attentive, friendly, and service was quick. Can't fault the food at all, every dish we had was bang on. We'll be back, very soon!”

“Great food. Really friendly and helpful staff.”

“Fantastic pub DJs on regular every Friday and Saturday night and 1st Saturday from 2pm till 8pm they have SKA / Reggae DJ and on the 3rd Saturday it's Motown/Soul/Northern Soul DJ.”

“Nice local coffee morning on a Thursday with proper barista a coffee and good selection of cakes and pastries”

“Excellent food. Tis expensive but worth it for a test every now and then. Jack Daniels glaze is on point. Great customer service by the team. Recommended!”
