Quick lunch options in Leicester

“excellent day out. Brilliant beer like it should be and probably cheapest in leicester! The food is very authentic and tasty. It is always busy. It has now become my regular. Best to book a table especially at weekends.”

“Really enjoyable meal, very well prepared, cooked and served. It's so nice to see a full gluten-free menu. Great friendly service from Noah and the team. Comment not a criticism, possibly a couple more potatoes, with the fish cakes”

“Found this hidden gem, food was absolutely amazing. Very good value for money”

“A great little coffee shop, with friendly and happy staff. Plenty of seating, including outside seating, with loads of charging sockets.”

“Definitely my favourite fast food restaurant (don’t be fooled - it’s a healthy kind of fast food!). I’ve tried most things on the menu, don’t think there’s anything I don’t like.”

“My favourite place to go out for a meal whether it's with family or friends. Great food, always made to feel so welcome. Can not recommend Cuisine of India enough! My favourite dish is a chicken dhansak closely followed by a chicken shashlik. Staff are always so welcoming and helpful, see you again soon!”

“Joyce and Nav were incredible, thank you again for this unforgettable experience for the new year’s celebration! The staff were amazing and the whole venue is so welcoming.”

“Great selection! I found food and spices in here that I haven't found in any other shop! It's like going back to my island! The prices for some items were cheaper than the big supermarkets! Fresh produce was top quality too!”

“Service, food and people are great, no faults, they went the extra mile for the kids! Proper homely feel, Highly recommended!”

“Absolutely outstanding! Doner Master in Kibworth is hands-down one of the best takeaways I’ve ever been to. The food is always fresh, packed with flavour, and perfectly cooked. Their doner meat is tender and seasoned beautifully, and the chicken shish is a must-try – juicy, smoky, and full of taste. Portions are very generous and great value for money, so you’ll never leave hungry. What really sets them apart though is the service. The staff are welcoming, friendly, and always happy to go the extra mile. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. On top of that, the place is spotless and they hold a 5-star hygiene rating, which gives even more confidence in the quality. If you’re anywhere near Kibworth, Doner Master is a gem that’s 100% worth the visit. Consistently amazing food, excellent service, and unbeatable value – highly recommend!”

“Return visit to the northern cobbler roasters, after a moderately adequate visit a few months ago. Me and my friend decided to try again last Sunday and we was pleasantly surprised we grabbed a quick coffee and a bite to eat! The service was lovely quick and efficient. The lady who served us was so attentive and the service was brilliant! I had a caramel latte and it was Devine after being out in the cold, but the mushrooms on toast was so good, great flavor, perfect portion size and presented lovely! We had a really lovely visit and will be back! Thank you for restoring faith”

“2025 update Had a fantastic meal here. A really good menu that isn't your normal pub food. Well presented and very, very tasty. Superb service and friendly staff. A bonus too that dogs are allowed. 2024 Dropped in for a pint after a curry with the lads. Excellent service from the bar staff. Good selection of drinks and plenty of cosy seats.”

“Here is a review for Mithaas Restaurant in Leicester: "Mithaas is a fantastic spot for authentic Indian vegetarian food! The Masala Dosa is huge, crispy, and incredibly filling, while the Samosa Chaat hits the perfect balance of spicy and tangy. It has a relaxed, canteen-style vibe that makes it great for a casual meal with family. Don't leave without visiting the sweets counter—the fresh Jalebis and Barfi are the perfect way to end the meal!" Would you like me to mention a specific dish you loved (like the Indo-Chinese or Thali) or adjust the length for a specific platform?”

“Had an amazing experience at this restaurant! Tried the Porotta-Beef Curry and Poori-Masala, and both were absolutely delicious— authentic & flavourful. The porotta was soft and flaky, just like you’d get in Kerala, and the beef curry was rich and full of spices. The service was also great—friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. It truly felt like I was enjoying a meal back in Kerala. Will definitely be coming back.”

“Our Go To place. We can't find better.. every time the quality hits above standards. Amazing food and the price is right!”

“We had been for a day out and I had originally booked for my partner and our children for 3pm on the Sunday. My daughter has dairy and egg allergies, so rather than booking online, I decided to call to speak to someone regarding their procedures for my daughter's allergies. Luckily enough, I managed to speak to the manager, Bekki. I explained the situation regarding the above and before I could start asking questions, Bekki started telling me how they deal with this. Front of house know and inform the chef/kitchen and we also get a tablet with all the food and ingredients on it and you can put in your allergies/intolerances and it will tell you what is available. From start to finish, it was a very good system and put my mind at rest. I was very impressed. The only other large food establishment that is this thorough, that I've been to, is Hickory's. Anyway, we got there on Sunday (albeit an hour early!) and we were seated straight away. The lady that checked our booking, confirmed the allergies and gave us our tablet. We chose our food and our waitress also knew about the allergies and confirmed that she would double check with the kitchen with anything we ordered. We got our food (which was very nice by the way) and the waiter that bought my daughter's food even washed his hands before bringing it out, which shows complete dedication to me! There was only one gripe and that is, is that we did have to wait a while for our dessert's. From start to finish, I was very impressed with the way they handled everything with regards to my daughter's allergies. Very professional and they actually cared. Thank you very much.”

“Lovely food, great service and a very nice ambience”

“8 of us ate here It was gorgeous The food was unreal Service was great We all loved it”

“The Crown is an excellent place to stay. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Our room had been recently renovated to a high standard and was very comfortable. The bar offered a great selection of beers and wines, and the food was both delicious and reasonably priced. We stayed on a Saturday night, and the lively bar atmosphere added to the overall experience. We wouldn’t hesitate to return to The Crown for another stay.”

“Happy kitchen is the BEST takeaway I have ever ordered from! The food is always delivered on time and hot, fresh and delicious! The chicken balls are to die for, the chicken chow mein is gorgeous and not greasy like some other takeaways. The spare ribs with garlic, chilli and salt are RIDICULOUSLY good! Everything I’ve tried from here is incredible!”

“Very presently surprised. New to the area and have been trying to find a new regular Chinese place instead travelling back to my old area for 30mins. Food was delivered at the specified time and dare I say it tasted better then my previous local. Looking forward to trying the different dishes over time.”

“Excellent food, excellent portions and warm service. A great experience and we look forward to coming again! Thank you!”

“I have visited Café Dido for my first time today. The staff who attended me was lovely, kind and very helpful. You can ask them about allergies and preferences without any issues. All the tables were clean and tidy. I had the quietness to enjoy my reading. The coffee was a very nice one and the food was tasty and filling. I would recommend this Café to everyone, a very nice spot in Leicester.”

“NEW OWNERS! Really friendly new family has taken over! The shop is clean and hygienic now. The new hours make much more sense if your looking to get a coffee before work as they're now open at 7am! Yay! Had lunch two days in a row now and can't wait to give breakfast a try tomorrow!”

“Great customer service and are brilliant to deal with. Highly recommend them to anyone, I would rather travel slightly further out to this shop than ones closer to me.”

“Best Chinese around. Dragon Special Curry and Chicken Curry are outstanding. Proper Chicken, not the soggy slimey stuff that most local Chinese takeaways now serve. Singapore rice is very good and the prawn toast is amazing.”

“In spite of being busy the staff reminded polite capable and efficient. When I went there they were just about drowning. Yet I was served quicker than expected, the chips were perfect and plenty of them. The fish nice big piece and delicious. Batter just right. The staff were all quite young, well done kids hope you're employer's proud of you.”

“Going through Uber Eats was terrible as they would not allow me to amend/cancel an order that was literally placed seconds before. I ended up calling straight to store to ensure my dietary requirements were met/I didn't waste my money. Whoever was on the other side of the phone was amazing. They resolved my issue and made sure my food arrived correctly. A massive thank you for whoever it was that made sure I didn't end up in a food mood!”

“Recommend the T-Bone and chips. Owner a top geezer, but needs to consider switching his football team support. Would def eat here again if in Leicester. Really handy for Demontford Hall from train station.”
