Leicester's - Menú

First time visit for Sunday lunch with my husband. Can not find anything to fault. Salmon starter was delicious, but the roast beef was exceptional. We will definitely be returning to try their lunchtime menu. Definitely worth a visit.

We had afternoon tea at this place. What a real disapointment, no napkins on the table, missing cutlerly. Sandwiches which were just okay at best, nice cakes though. I didnt rate this value for money at £25 per person. I would not return here again and would look elsewhere.

Bought a voucher for a 2course meal for 2 from the great house which include a glass of red wine per person. used the voucher yesterday surprised to find that each item was a seperate charge that took it over the voucher ammount ,and no red wine.Totally mis sold never again

Having been here before and had a great meal (partner wrote a positive review) we booked again for a treat. It felt different this time and a bit of a mixed bag really. The portions of bread appeared a little stale around the edges. Starters were good. Unfortunately for 32.00 each the steak was a bit of a disappointment. Overcooked and fatty around the edges. Desert was great and very well presented. Like a lot of places, prices have understandably increased but it felt like the service and standards were a bit hit and miss.

Every Christmas time my Spouse I dine here it is a tradition of ours. This year was a disappointment. The food is usually five stars but this year it wasn’t. The bread was stale and the food just average not amazing as it used to be. Vegetarian option was glamorgan sausages which tasted like mass produced ones. Bland. Since the restaurant changed ownership, service is not the same as years ago. Nice servers but very young inexperienced. Sadly, it’s not the five star experience it used to be. I hope Leicesters will up its game set higher standards soon.

A bit late writing this review, but just getting around to it now. We chose this restaurant as we had family visiting and this place had great reviews. We were a party of 4 adults and a baby. We were not disappointed, the restaurant itself is very beautiful in a old building with lots of character and the food was really good. There was no children's menu available but the lovely staff were happy to cook up some soft cauliflower cheese for our little one. A very enjoyable experience and I would absolutely recommend this restaurant, especially for valentines day and anniversaries as it does have a lovely romantic feel to it.

Our children had bought us the six course tasting menu as a Christmas present and it was amazing. Food and service superb! Bread and chicken skin butter gorgeous, haddock welsh rarebit and beautiful tomato and herb bedding gorgeous. Lamb terrine with micro veg and broth off the scale. Sirloin steak and all the trimmings just fabulous. Loved the chilled rhubarb crumble and the ice cream on the cheesecake dessert lovely. Only disappointment was the scallop and kimchi course; kimchi and chilli overpowered the gorgeous perfectly cooked scallop. (But as would have given 6 stars not an issue) Definitely 100% recommend this restaurant!!!!!

My wife and another family member both chose a battered fish option from the light bites menu. Arrived with a light batter and on a bed of pea purée. A nice variation on a pub classic. I opted for the vegetarian option of the mushroom stroganoff and I have to say it was probably the nicest version of this dish that I have sampled. The variety of types of mushrooms in the dish was quite exotic and far removed from the usual mundane button mushrooms. The crispy polenta and kale added to the mix of interesting tastes. Again, a great variant on a popular vegetarian dish. Overall, a very pleasant culinary experience, enjoyed with a pint of a local Welsh ale.

Anyone who thinks this is a good Sunday lunch must be a non cook as at £140 for a table of 4 with drinks) was so inferior to my wife's cooking the chef should be embarrassed to serve it. The beef was tough, the roast potatoes tasted like the frozen variety and not proper gravy. Worst of all the vegetables were all served in one bowl between four people so it was impossible to be selective as you could serve up soggy cauliflower cheese which carrots, peas etc. in one scoop. When we complained about the vegetables the chef must have taken exception as they brought out a huge bowl carrots. I did not want to leave a review but as I wrote to Leicester's and received no reply I thought others need...
