Local.ingredient in Leicester

“My favourite place to eat out in the whole of Leicester. Wonderful food and unpretentious atmosphere. I highly recommend it to everyone!”

“Great value for money, tasty food, quick service and polite staff. Cash only restaurant.”

“Went for a lunchtime jazz session, great ale, great food , albeit cobs sausage rolls pork pies crisps they were excellent, staff very friendly, great atmosphere for chilling out!”

“Always such a warm and friendly welcome every time I visit! I absolutely love the classic chicken gyro — so flavourful and perfectly made. And their Greek lemonade is a must-try, super refreshing. I usually skip the chips, but everything else is spot on. One of my favourite go-to places!”

“Amazing pub especially since the new management has taken it over! Fab atmosphere in a village pub with everyone so friendly. Made to feel very welcome ❤️”

“Great pub, amazing ale, decent pork scratchings”

“Great service! We didn’t know that they were only open for lunch 12-2:00pm but they were kind enough to seat us despite arriving 20mins after closing. The staff were friendly, hospitable and very welcoming. The food was delicious and authentic tasting and I would definitely recommend giving this place a try!”

“An excellent meal, perfectly cooked and served in a timely manner considering 8 tables all filled up at 7pm on a Saturday night. Those who work in or have worked in the catering trade will understand that this can cause an issue in taking orders for drinks and food, never mind preparing it. Our experience was A1 first class. Good, flavourful food takes time and boy is it worth it! This place served us great food in a timely manner with Jeff and his team, short handed though they were, being first class in their approach. 10/10 for me. Would recommend the butter lamb main and the chicken 65 as a starter if you like a bit of fiery heat.”

“The service was really fast which suited our needs, and the food was amazing! The portion sizes, value for money, and quality of food was unbelievable! So good that we went back for the exact same thing the next day. Would definitely recommend.”

“We had a fantastic curry at this restaurant, really fresh and tasty. I especially loved the extra cheesy garlic naan bread and the pickle tray was amazing. Our sever was very attentive and nothing was too much trouble for him. Thanks very much.”

“We went to The Bell for a family Sunday lunch and it was absolutely delicious! The roasts were well-cooked and we had a pot of crackling on the side for the pork-eaters. A choice of old favourites (crumble!) and more adventurous puds. Thoroughly recommend.”

“Hi , me and my daughter went to the wool sale yesterday all for loros , we decided to have a drink afterwards and was made very welcome by the bar staff . 5 stars , thank you”

“Great pub. Terrific atmosphere. Live bands”

“We had a lovely English breakfast at Buddies Café with the whole family, and it was a fantastic experience! The food was fresh, delicious, and served hot — everything from the eggs to the vegan sausages was cooked just right. The atmosphere was relaxed and family-friendly. Definitely one of the best spots for breakfast in Leicester. Highly recommended — we’ll be coming back soon!”

“You get the most authentic stone baked pizzas here. Absolutely delicious! We also tried some of their pasta dishes, which were also very nice. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I went in with my children and we really enjoyed watching them make the pizza, store front. We ordered a really cute little kids pizza in the shape of a teddy bear face but, we opted out to have a face drawn on with the sauces. Apparently my kids are too old for that now! Inside eating area available, although we got our food takeaway.”

“Love this place , always come in and have a coffee with my mum . Staffs are very warm and friendly ! Coffees are very nice as well ! Foods are very good ! Highly recommend !!!”

“Lovely food and service. Very friendly waitress with good recommendations for each of us. Food was very tasty and can't wait to go back and try more of the menu.”

“Not much to say about "atmosphere" as it was empty. The food however was amazing. Vegetable samosas freshly made were delicious. Highly recommend to try.”

“We had a lovely brunch for Mothers day. The staff are so accommodating and the food is lovely! Highly recommend. We were also able to reserve a table and the courtyard is Pet friendly. Thank you!”

“Hands down the best Chinese around and from trying many places, this is by far the best. Such lovely people running it and great delivery driver. Always have great recommendations too!”

“Best option for a mallu missing home food. I tried the Chatti choru and it took me right back to kerala, spice level suitable for a South Indian with a perfect blend of seasoning and flavour. Keep in mind food does take a few mins but all freshly made. Extra shout out to Jomon who was brilliant and gave us a lovely experience.”

“Had the chaat at Lariwala recently and it was absolutely delicious! Definitely hits the spot if you're craving proper street-style chaat. Will be coming back for more!”

“The Sautéed Pork is a must try as is sweet on the palette. Rice and Cumin Lamb is recommended and definitely for the hot spice lovers the spicy tofu is a wonderful choice.”

“Recently moved to the area and this has now become our local. Excellent food and great service. Once forgot a beer from my order and when I rang them, they sent someone to deliver instantly. All round fantastic”

“Always reasonably busy, good prices, friendly staff, good food and selection. Different soup and plated meal each day as well as sandwiches, rolls, cakes, coffee/tea/cold drinks. Visit often, they have a chatty corner to sit if on your own and someone will always stop by for a chat.”
