The Joiners Arms
About
The Joiners Arms is a family‑run rural gastropub tucked into the quiet village of Bruntingthorpe, just between Leicester and Lutterworth. The warm, oak‑beamed interior and flagstone floor create an inviting, rustic ambience that instantly feels like a cosy village inn. The menu showcases classic British cuisine with an emphasis on well‑sourced ingredients – from Sunday roast to hearty mains and thoughtfully crafted desserts. Wine lovers will appreciate an extensive list featuring both new‑world and classic labels, with wine by the glass commencing at £6.25. The restaurant prides itself on friendly, attentive service. The head chef frequently checks on diners, and staff deliver a cheerful and welcoming experience that guests find memorable. The Joiners also offers seasonal highlights such as a festive Christmas menu and weekly Auberge Supper – a three‑course special available every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Whether you’re a local family, a wine enthusiast, or simply looking for a relaxed, high‑quality meal in a village setting, The Joiners Arms delivers a well‑balanced blend of hearty food, approachable wine, and a convivial atmosphere that keeps guests coming back.
