Après Lounge in Leicester

Manisha was the most attentive bar staff I’ve ever met, experience was 11/10 and would definitely recommend coming here for a few drinks just to wind down and enjoy your spare time. Thank you Manisha you deserve the recognition xx

I would like to make you aware that my daughter was spiked last Friday and we have high suspicion that it was by the bar staff, as she did not leave her drink anywhere. No one helped her, even her friend asked for help from the bouncer on duty, but they refused, didn’t bother to even listen to what her friend was trying to tell them. That was their 1st drink. She was lucky to be with other friends who brought her home safely. God knows what would happened that night to my daughter. If you want to stay safe, stay away from this place. I am trying to make you aware, as I am still feeling scared from the situation and don’t want another young girl to go through this.

Sister bar to Bruxelles and has the link to garden outside. Superb djs from Superfly and Flat White records, Saturday and Friday respectively. There are djs in the bar and the garden outside. One of busiest and liveliest places in Leicester. House music is the main genre. Friday nights has r n b and other music inside Apres lounge. Good range of drinks and excellent service. Highly recommended for a proper night out.

the bartender dom was lovely, he was so welcoming and friendly :)

Dom Was serving me and was so lovely and was so friendly and was a great service

Overpriced bar with no distinguishing characteristics. Bouncer grabbed me by the head. 8.40 for a double vodka. Not worth it.

I found it very interesting to see they was priority to let that ladies in over the men When asked why we cannot get in was advised management said too many males in that venue ( does it matter about ratios ) I guess as long as they spend and put money into that till is what counts

Great vibe, good music and the staff great. Just not sure, why i was charged different price on same drinks in their.

Vile and abusive bouncers. DON'T GO HERE

The most misogynistic and disgusting place I’ve ever been to! You may feel comfortable there if you have a d*ck

Bouncer grabbed hold of my friend and shouted abusive things at me. Absolutely disgusting man and really aggressive!

Unable to enter as bouncer said ‘only couples allowed’ I was stood their with my partner so I told him we are a couple and he just repeated himself, whether or not he thought my partner was my friend due to us both being females or whether he did not want us in because we were a couple I’m not too sure. After telling him again that we were a couple he just stared forward and chose to ignore us, it was the tall bald guy, seemed to just be another bouncer abusing his power.

Bouncers refused entry even though the bar was completely dead. Not the first time this has happened, way too prestige for a small Leicester bar. Owner should re consider the bouncers here, they are on a power trip.

Super cool night out! The DJ every Friday is amazing

Back garden is awesome on a Saturday night, if you like house music its the best place in Leicester

Great location, great staff and a fab atmosphere

It's 12:30am and I've just been refused a second cup of tea; I can only assume because it's not cool enough and you have to drink alcohol here to impress the bar staff? A shame as we've had a good half hour up to now, despite the violence and police presence in the outside drinking area after an altercation. A very strange experience.

Deceptively spacious, great vibe and decor too!

Good drinks good atmosphere just a good night

Great night out with good company!

We came from out of town. The good reviews are well deserved, what a wicked vibe this place has. We arrived quite early, perhaps around nine on a Friday night, it was quiet. After an hour it had really filled out. The DJs were really killing it with a vinyl turntable, the crowd was quite mixed, which we really liked, felt very inclusive but also special. They tread a fine line here, between bar and club, formal and casual, fun and serious, and seem to get the balance right on all accounts. We had a great time, if I ever make it back to Leicester you can count we'll visit again.

It was great to be out out and dance the night away. Friday night, great music by a talented DJ downstairs

£5.50 for a pint where you get harassed by the door men because you're not allowed to talk to other people, you have to wear a mask when standing and you can't sit where you want or stand at the bar. Ridiculous!!!

Red stripe on tap! Great atmosphere and good music 😄

Refused entry due to not having NHS covid app, despite offering to give my details. Will give this place a miss indefinitely.

Despite an outside area full of charm, coming here was a bit of a disaster. It took 40mins to get our first drink and the 2nd drink took a long time too. I get that times are tough and I'm generally forgiving, but this just seemed very disorganised. They seemed to have a decent number of staff, just didn't get to people. One server was slightly apologetic, but it was too little too late. We moved on to a much better experience and I won't be back in a rush.

This place is extremely unpleasant and discriminatory. Despite having displayed evidence of being fully vaccinated, and downloading a debatedly flawed app to my phone I was refused entry. This is taking into account that I was ensured by the security that this was what was required to obtain entry. The reason for refusal was that I was wearing a hat. As a key worker I feel this is appalling and I would not reccomend this establisment to any person with any regard to anybody that feels such discriminatory behaviour is valid. In addition I noted that the security guard did not wear a face covering at all times and I did not observe the staff member refusing me entrance perform hand hygiene on any occasion. An awful experience which I will never repeat due to its' insulting and humiliating nature.

Really poor and dissapointing, used to love this place came in for 2 pints on Saturday night. Bar manager was rude and blunt when I told him our first round of IPA tasted off, had to buy two Heinekens because of this which were both clearly flat refused to apologise. Really poor and wont be coming back now.

great place,cool music and Stratospheric Prices !

Friendly little bar with a great seating area out back.

Bartender in the garden has terrible customer service 'skills'. Under charged me for a drink and wouldn't admit to his mistake, tried to put the blame on me so called the bouncers when I questioned his attitude. Seriously needs looking in to. Luckily the security staff were understanding and compliant. Apart from his poor attitude the place is great, just really let down by one person.

Love the cocktails in here! Although cocktails take a while to make some of the staff do need to revise the ingredients/instructions a little more. All in all great place though!

Decent bar in Leicester city centre

Bit of a weird vibe and everyone looks as though they are about 18 although it was a Thursday night when we went here, probably wouldn't be back in a rush the music was very bassy and not much tune to it.

Staff have the corisma of cardboard, female member was rude, no thank you or nothing

Great DJ, sour cocktails! In fact our Pina Coladas were that sour I got indigestion! Wow, please, either go back to cocktail training camp or don't try to palm us off with cheap ingredients! Not quite the fruity, creamy pudding- like cocktails we know and love !

Lovely pub, quirky, great atmosphere

Grewt music and fab garden in the back

Very good place, great atmosphere & all staff very welcoming on arrival & throughout my visit

Bouncer on a power trip, told me to talk to a tree before considering entry. Bouncer aggressive and power hungry and even his colleague apologised for him No one should try to enter unless you want power hungry doormen that have zero interest in safety and more how they can impose themselves.

Fire risk and health and safety risk.

Nice little bar bit more pricey than others, but still a nice relaxed environment.

Great little bar with great music and service

Love this bar with the extra cold beer

Gorąco polecam! Cudowne miejsce w zimowe wieczory które znajdziemy w samym centrum Leicester!

Happening little bar. Good DJs, good choice of drinks, a bit pricey.

Kind of overpriced however good atmosphere nice bar

We were refused entrance to this bar as my brother was wearing smart trainers... he is very rich and is exactly the type of client this very dead bar needs. Good luck to them as it's a lovely place but my brother is exactly the clientele they need... good work bros 👌👌👌

Small but happening place. The Cocktails are recommended.

Great atmosphere and service. A decent pint of Amstel served in an ice cold glass.

A nice bar with respected beers on tap.

I have visited before and found the bar fine but tonight I experienced an incredibly rude insolent doorman. Very unimpressed.
