Mercado Lounge saved us from a bad situation on Saturday. I had booked a table in a tapas restaurant in the same street, mentioning it was for our 15th anniversary. They said they have several bookings and that they can only give us a table upstairs, alone, by the kitchen. Such a let down as downstairs was cozy with good atmosphere. I felt upset so we left, not knowing where to go and rather upset. Looked at the menu outside Mercado, loved it. Right there was Tom, he works at Mercado. I explained how we had just seen our nice dinner plan collapse and he took us in, gave us a great table and a free pre-dinner drink each. Our moods were so lifted! Although queuing at the bar can be a bit long, it was acceptable. Our waitress was Agnes and she was bubbly and friendly, the tapas we ordered were soooo delicious!! We enjoyed the music very much and even used one of the games they had. Andrew brought the great dessert.
All in all, it was a very nice evening, saved by Mercado. Thanks a lot! X
Good food, sensible pricing friendly staff . informal place to eat and meet friends. Coffee and alcohol drinks
This is a really nice place to hang out. Great decor and very lovely, friendly staff.
The foods pretty tasty too, although I've sometimes felt a bit shortchanged with the portion sizes. If I spend £6.50 on a sandwich and you cut it in half for me, it really would be awfully nice to get both of the pieces on my plate! :-)
Visited in the summer. Lovely cafe/restaurant with lots of room between tables. Food was good and service was good as well.
I ordered the sausage & egg muffin with a side of chips and it was delicious. Drinks can be a hint expensive but that seems to be par the course nowadays. Also dog friendly!
Fantastic breakfast this morning in Market Harborough with my other half.
The Veggie breakfast was delicious , the service was brilliant. Thanks to Lindsey for making us feel so welcome 😀
We will be returning next time we are in the area.
👍
A long standing returning customer. I’ve been coming here for many years and enjoy it every time. Its of the nicest of the ‘lounges’ chain I’ve been to. Staff are always welcoming even when it does get busy. From big breakfasts to cocktails at night they never seem to miss a beat. And I’d like to add I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal here. The addition of being able to take your dog is just great too!
Food is full of flavour and it's so different. The sweetcorn fritters are the best. The cocktails and milkshakes are great too. The staff are friendly and helpful. A new favourite
This is one of the best places I have been for brunch in a long time. We were so impressed with the child friendly nature of this restaurant during the day. They had lots to keep the kids occupied. The food was excellent too and if you’re a bruncher like me on weekends you won’t be disappointed with the brunch options. This visit definitely won’t be the last and I highly recommend mercado lounge!
By far the most delicious food in the area. Average priced, definitely worth it. People are quite nice and the location is great. Very conveniently placed with the Travelodge hotel.
First visit to this place, great cosy atmosphere, lovely warm staff whonare a credit to the hospitality industry, super efficency in ordering food and drinks all from the comfort of your table, preventing queuing which is a bonus in a busy comfortable place, with choice of searing areas, from sofas to tables. Definitely recommend, a credit to MKT Harborough
A family group went to the Mercado lounge yesterday for dinner, The service was great and quick. Very friendly staff. They have a great vegan menu. I would definitely recommend.
Went on Friday for lunch. Food was lovely and great choice. Staff were friendly and helpful. Really reasonable cost wise and great atmosphere as tables are not crammed together. Highly recommended.
Really good food, very friendly staff, amazing cocktails.
Probably the best bar in Harborough, great cocktails, good beer selection. Also family and pet friendly, lovely bar staff and tasty food (the Superhero Burger is awesome). Can get busy at the bar at times, when it's full and lots of people are ordering food and cocktails - most people wait patiently in the queue to be served, but there's often a wise guy who tries to circumvent the entire queue and just goes and stands at the bar, this can be frustrating. Some sort of "queue here for food" sign might be helpful to get things moving for people who just want drinks.
Lovely place in the center of Market Harborough,great food and staff were also very good.The toilets were also very clean and also they were on the ground floor.Will definitely revisit.
Nice friendly relaxed atmosphere and food was nice, not cheap though compared to similar places, you can get a coffee or other or an alcohol drink. I will be calling in again to try something else as it all looks very tasty
They also have an area for children to crayon and draw which is very nice, enjoyed it though as we were having a day out in market Harborough, 😊 thankyou
What a find! Heading to Market Harborough to enjoy time with great friends, 1 vegan, 1 vegetarian, an omnivore and fussy me. I found the mixed tables and chairs good. We switched a leather chair for our vegan friend. No problem.
The menus catered for everyone. I had the chicken burger with bacon and 🥑. Delicious! Everyone cleared their plates. The choice of non-alcoholic beverages is very good. There are games and toys for all ages. I only gave atmosphere 4 stars because I am nervous around unfamiliar dogs and there were a few in the venue. Table service is via a QR code, but it was quick and accurate. I will return.
I really just want to give some praise and recognition to Lynsey the New Manager. Since her arrival I have noticed a significant change in efficiency and professionalism. The current staff seem more certain of their roles and happier in their positions. They are always friendly and polite. A huge huge improvement Many thanks
Went here for Sunday morning breakfast after staying at the Travelodge. All our food was good, with friendly service and a nice interior. There a pleasant buzz, with a mix of families, those travelling and locals. I'd recommend it for sure
Amazing food, atmosphere and staff. Could not recommend this place enough. Extremely good value as well.
Favourite place to go, whether it's a family meal, date night or out for drinks.
Love the atmosphere here.
