Two hundred years on Burton St.

The Noel’s Arms has stood on this corner since the 1800s, named after the Earl of Gainsborough and woven into the fabric of Melton Mowbray. After years of quiet, we’ve carefully restored this historic pub- preserving its character while reimagining its purpose for today.

It’s a story of heritage respected, a building revived and a commitment to doing justice to both the past and the plate. From the original features we’ve uncovered to the relationships we’ve built with local producers, every detail honours what came before while looking firmly forward.
