“I had to run for my train so they don’t look the best but they tasted amazing and the blue cheese dip was so delicious. I got them with Frank’s sauce which tasted like buffalo sauce. The staff was really friendly as well. I will definitely go again one day”

Ordered from this place a few times now and each time I wish I ordered a bit more. The burger was better than any of the "burger places " in town and the ribs, wings and hotdogs all match. Don't be put off looking for cheaper options because the quality is there at Mervs. Great food if you're looking for some Americana. Perfect for summer time in the garden. 👌

Been going to the Swan for decades now, since I was a kid. The food has always been good there. With the arrival of Merv, it has gone from 'Good Pub Food', to straight up 'Good Food'! We had Burgers, ribs and a side of fries. Faultless. The only downside is that we just wanted more. Next time we will definitely go for the 'All you can eat ribs'. Would recommend this to anyone.

“Recently are here with friends. While we had a little difficulty ordering our food when it arrived it was delicious. There’s plenty of options so should be enough for everyone. The mains don’t come with rice which has to be ordered separately which bumped up the final bill a bit. Each of us had a starter, main and drink and it was over £40 each so on the dearer side for Loughborough. We would consider eating here again though.”

“A nice place for a good meal in what I often call the artistic (prettier) part of the town. Marple & 5 spice duck breast was simply delicious with a bouquet of aromatic spices. Lots of space inside, pleasing interior decorations and, most importantly, good service.”

“Really very impressed with Khazana. The food was absolutely superb; excellent flavours and just the right amount of spice. The Ghost was delicious and the lamb was so tender while the chilli paneer was very tasty. Service was impeccable and very friendly indeed. The restaurant was full on a Wednesday night which suggests how good this place is, which other restaurants around were almost empty. Certainly will be returning.”

“I've been living in the town centre since 2017 but I haven't been to dine here at Caravelli Restaurant which is just round the corner. My mate from London decided to visit Loughborough and he's staying overnight with me so I thought this would be my opportunity to finally have dinner at Caravelli. The atmosphere was peaceful and quiet. I enjoyed their pasta PAPPARDELLE CON SALSICCIA. It was very tasty. I also like the old fashioned interior design of their restaurant. The waiters were very friendly and attentive to their customers. Overall the food was tasty and delicious. I definitely go back here again with other mates.”

“The food here was fantastic. The portion sizes were so generous and everything was full of flavour. The vegetable spring rolls and prawn tempuras were perfectly crisp and light. The ingredients were clearly fresh and well prepared, we thoroughly enjoyed both starters. For the main course we selected pad Thai and red curry, both were delicious and despite the mammoth portions we couldn’t help but to clear our plates! The Pad Thai came with a small pot of spices which really elevated the dish, it brought a warming heat and welcomed further layers of flavour. Our only complaint would be the service, we were poorly attended to. After some minutes of sitting at our empty table I had to collect our own menus and request that our order be taken. Furthermore, our starter dishes were not cleared until the main courses were being served. The servers never once checked on us during the meal which was rather disappointing. Overall, we would certainly come here again. There was no denying the food was gorgeous, hopefully next time the service will live up to the quality of the dishes.”
