About us

The Red Cow started out in the 1650's as a very small inn in a row of cottages in a village near Leicester. Our name comes from an old rhyme which relates to the pub restaurant. "The old red cow, Which never did low, With coat as soft as silk. Come in, if you please, And sit down at your ease, And taste her nut brown milk".

A country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character, our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Whether you are planning dinner with friends or Sunday lunch with family, book a table online and enjoy some quality time with those you love the most.

Great place, went for dinner here yesterday and I'm still thinking about the food. The service was Amazing and the atmosphere and decor was a nice cosy vibe. The staff were very attentive, will definitely be going back! Highly recommend the duo of lamb

Excellent meal had on a Friday night. Not too busy but a good atmosphere. And the food was delicious. Would definitely eat here again. We had arancini and sticky chicken to start. Schnitzel and pie for main. Great service from Daphne and Lucy :)

Came here for our Sunday lunch tour of Leicestershire lol snd this time there were 8 of us. Lovely looking venue and really nice inside. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was very nice and tasty and the only faults I would say is that the cauliflower cheese didn't come out with much sauce on, We had 3 so wasn't just the one and the burger meal could do with something else on the plate like a side salad to bulk it out. Not the cheapest of places and we didn't know about the compulsory £4.50 per head service charge they add for groups of 8 or more which came to an extra £36 total to the bill. There is parking but can be a tight fit if there are many cars already parked up. We will be back here again though as did enjoy it.

Lovely food and good service. (I can recommend the pork belly), We arrived early at 12.30 for Sunday lunch. The only minor downside was that we were seated in an alcove where there were already a number of other people, the main part of the pub area was vacant. Parking was conveniently situated at the side of the pub.
