About

Nestled in the picturesque Leicestershire countryside, specifically in the charming village of Kegworth, The Otter emerged in 1996, continuing the legacy of inns that had graced the site since the 1800s. This riverside English country pub offers a menu brimming with traditional favourites.

Whether you're seeking a delightful sandwich, a light bite, classic pub dishes, or a Sunday roast, you can savour your meal while gazing out at the scenic River Soar during the balmy summer months. As winter arrives, the pub's interior beckons with its cosy charm and inviting log fires, creating the perfect setting for enjoying heartwarming dishes that have endeared The Otter to many.

For those yearning for quality time with loved ones amid stunning countryside and river views, this is the ideal escape. The menu is a treasure trove of hearty classics and country pub staples, with seasonal surprises for those craving something unique. Your visit will be met with a well-stocked bar, offering a selection of cask ales, lagers, fine wines, British gins, and an array of soft drinks to satisfy every palate. These drinks are best enjoyed in the pub's enchanting and picturesque gardens, making your experience all the more enjoyable.

Embrace the vibrant seasonal menus, available from Monday to Saturday, along with the all day menu at The Otter. The restaurant’s chefs curate an assortment of enticing new dishes that capture the essence of the season on a continuous basis, from the fresh smoked mackerel pâté to the summery strawberry bellini trifle. While you decide on your meal, why not order some mixed olives, stone-baked garlic flatbread or sourdough bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for the table.
