The Market Tavern Bar, Pub in Leicester

Reviews

   Not a place I normally go in but thought woukd give it a try. This is a typical townie bar as I call them, busy with sports on and fairly lively punters seem friendly enough. I knocked a few stars off for a few reasons. One was due to a weird, stale beer smell that was prevalent in the bar area and toilets need a re-fit and including seats on the toilets. Drinks wise was nothing special and your standard drinks range which is fine if uou like Catling etc. Staff were friendly and service was quick enough and prices reasonable.

   This rowdy place been a local to me for many of years. Fantastic football atmosphere pub with a great range of selective beers and spirits. This place does get having fast specially at weekends day and night and best to come here as a group. Itay have many names but you will always end up coming back here. One of Leicester's best bars.

   I hadn't been in for years. The preservation and redecorations are in full swing. Smashing atmosphere and the best crusty cob I've had in over a decade. Definitely a lunchtime stop for me from now on. As promised, been back. Cobs are to die for.

   ordered a pint of carling, barmaid asked do I want it on a ticket, I said yes. Came to £8.50. didn't realise id bought one pint and 2 on the ticket in total 3 pints which I didn't want. Not very friendly customers in there if your new or don't frequent it very often. One more thing, make sure your not sitting at anyone's table else you'll be made to feel uncomfortable. Won't be returning. Recommend The Fountain or The Hansom Cab

   Advertises dog friendly - me and my family went in with a well behaved small dog who barked a couple of times upon entrance. A barmaid then said "We can't do with your dog barking, if it carries on, you will have to leave." A group of chaps however we're allowed to swear and shout, and make new customers not feel welcome. This pub should not be advertised as dog friendly, however I did find it a little bit RUFF.

   Great place for a lunchtime drink if shopping in Leicester, close to city center, at the rear of the market. Staff are great and the locals friendly. Price of a pint is very competitive. Décor is a little basic and In past times i would probably refer to this establishment has a Back Street Boozer (not that's a bad thing).

   I used to go there often with a friend of mine, especially weekends. I loved the atmosphere, some of the Staff we knew by name. It was always nice to have a couple of lagers at a place you knew you were valued as a customer. You will just chat with about almost any regular there and enjoy your lagers.
