Market Kitchen in Blaby - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ristorante all’interno del Marriott Hotel. Se si vuole mangiare in hotel è purtroppo una scelta obbligata. Il personale è molto cortese ma la scelta dei piatti è limitata e non di alto livello. C’è tanto spazio di miglioramento.

Service with a smile. In particularly, really good service from Harrison who went over and beyond to try and cater to my dietary requirements and as I was in a rush personally ensured swift service when I stayed over at the hotel for work conference and popped in for a dinner. Decent food and lovely breakfast too. Many thanks.

Good food but small selection, good service.

Although the booking was done in advance, the resturant refused to acknowledge the booking and instead offered the table in the dining area. Whilst we had done a booking for the bar area ( as we were there for drinks and nibble) I had to then find a table by myself and it turned out to be quite an embarrassing situation for my colleagues, who were initially informed that we have a confirmed booking.

Food was very good. Service was excellent. Shame the food took a while to turn up at the table.

The Market Kitchen is let down by bad service. We paid for a hotel room with use of the Executive Lounge but due to the Christmas period the Lounge items were being dealt with in the Restaurant. We went down for Nibbles and ended up having just one portion, as I advised there was a lot of it my husband wouldn't like on it. It was only later I realised that a couple in front of us had 3 or 4 each, sometimes asking for just bread and in one case asking for the pasta to be brought out in bigger bowls, to save bringing more of them. It certainly seemed like regulars were treated differently. Due to this and the staff chatting to regulars ordering from the main menu was painfully slow and getting another drink, near impossible. At breakfast the next morning it was self-service and I was offered help, but I found myself with Apple Juice, and not Cranberry Juices, as the juices were labelled incorrectly - lack of detail. Before Checking Out, were had a Late Check out so we ordered lunch, which you do on the App. The App advised that it would be 45 minutes for delivery, but after 70 minutes waiting it had not arrived. I went down to Reception to enquire and apparently the order was stuck in the printer. 25 mins later we had food. Bearing all this in mind, I am not sure if we would eat here again, however convenient when staying at the hotel.

Rather surprised how good this place is, service was quick food hot and good choice on the menu

Perfect location for a breakfast meeting, good menu too

Tandoori chicken burger, bit dry but aromatic flavour. Chips seasoning delicious and moreish. Service was 10/10. First day breakfast 7am perfect. Omelette made to order, even Indian flavours. Second day breakfast 9am too busy, unorganised, tables weren't being re-set fast enough. Had to ask for cutlery multiple times. Hot drinks machine stopped working momentarily. Not enough English breakfast tea bags. Plus side Indian tea offered. Lots of condiments. Sausages and hash browns delicious. Scrambled eggs and poached eggs too watery. Lots of nuts present with other breakfast items - not good for allergy sufferers. Nuts should be kept covered and separated - it is an air born allergy and can easily kill via anaphylaxis! Pancake machine maker made pancakes that tasted like uncooked rubber. Alternative milk provided. Apple & orange juice yummy.

Shocking food - Will not be going back. Old ingredients, cold and no substance. NOT value for money at all. So many better places to eat in CW

Was served a sandwich (probably had been microwaved and sitting on the kitchen counter for a while) that was rock hard and impossible to chew. Also the service was late, I had to enquire about the order (which they probably had forgotten)

I stayed 1 night at Marriott Leicester and had dinner at their restaurant … what a mistake… There were big groups and they did not seem to be organized for this … they closed the kitchen for about 1h so they could serve the groups and then reopened. Obviously not enough staff on that evening … very noisy … and the food came finally 30 min after I ordered … it could have been great but was cold and ravioli were extremely dry … I asked for a little cream to add on … they accepted but never brought it … It was not the same experience back in October 2022… I guess tonight was just a unexpected overload …

Service was slow and menu seemed to be limited

I found the experience better than my last visit and my dish was perfect. Thanks to the care and service by Lauren, restaurant manager.

Good service, good food, lovely ambience.

The kitchen restaurant is a nice place to be. I had a few different meals here and they were all to a great standard. While in the restaurant I wanted to order from both the restaurant menu and the room menu, the staff in the restaurant were more the happy for me to do this, despite the menus being different. The staff are very friendly and accommodating in particularly Iffat, nothing was too much trouble for her and she went out of her way to make sure all our needs were met. She seemed to have a good rapport with the other customers in her care. Elliot was also very friendly and wanted to make sure we had everything we needed. I stayed at this hotel for a week and everything was to satisfaction. The rooms are clean, well kept, and maintained. The beds are very comfortable, the shower is powerful and the reception staff are very friendly.

We were staying here. I thought the place was OK. I liked their tofu curry and the vegan lasagne.thought the hallumi fries were OK. We spent around 25 which felt a bit expensive given what we got but I might be a cheap person! I would only come here of I was staying at the hotel. I would not come out of my way to dine here.

Restaurant manager, Lauren ensured the experience and meals were of a better standard than others first thing.

Large portions and food arrived on time. 3 of our party had to take the remaining portion away.

Food was good but the service was bad

We arrived on time to be informed that the restaurant didn’t find the booking. Luckily, it was not very busy at that time so they managed to find three seats for us.

Excellent decor and ambience. Really beautiful place. Food was mediocre tasting and not well presented on the plate. But go for the beautiful interior decor!

Very authentic, and well presented, I think its a gem of a place! Had a lovely evening thank you very much

Stayed with friends and family at the Marriott and had breakfast here. The lady that served us was lovely. Nothing was too much trouble and we were well looked after including the kids. Food was good and would go again.

It was great food, brilliant service - friendly and speedy

Nice relaxed restaurant. Food was good too, more variety would’ve been a plus

We ate on a Saturday lunchtime, overall good experience and pretty good value.

Food was okay (and nothing more), but waiters forgot some of our orders (even though there were more staff in the restaurant than customers at that time so busyness wasn't really an excuse). Overall, an okay place.

I’m in their Lobby now. For a hotel it’s pretty good, but that’s about it. There’s a reasonable menu for a week.

Although my reservation was made successfully online, there was a glitch in the system and the restaurant contacted me promptly to advise of not being able to fulfil the reservation.

The food is extremely overpriced for what you receive. I ordered my steak medium rare and it was served to me well done. Portions are very small and the meat quality was poor. No flavour and chewy. If you are staying in the hotel I would avoid.

Dined here for 6 month anniversary with my other half. Lovely food and drinks. Took a while for our food and drinks to arrive but there was only one man serving all the tables. Would definitely come back.

4 inch sausage for £8.smothered in thick gravy plonked on hummus. Hummus and gravy???the description in the menu...? Mergues sausage,red wine and hummus. I would've expected it being cooked in the wine with hummus to dip if required perhaps with a bit of soda bread! Nope just gloopy sickly stodge. To be fair I complained as it was also cold along with the chips. I therefore didn't pay the £8 for one 4 inch sausage.service was slow too.

Good place to have a team dinner.

We ate here for dinner and breakfast whilst staying at the Leicester Marriott Hotel. The service was exceptional, every waiter was friendly and attentive. In the evening we had the flat iron chicken and thai green curry which were both well presented and delicious! As we left one of the waiters advised us towards a quieter time for our convenience at breakfast as there was a coach trip staying - a nice gesture! When we came for breakfast the chef asked us how our night was - another nice gesture. Again the food was great and there was a wide choice of options to pick. If I was looking to stay in or near Leicester again I would definitely book this hotel and an option which included breakfast.

Food good, service seems to be lacking recently - our starter came up after we finished our mains!?

The pub was really nice for an afternoon drink but the food portions were tiny and not that amazing for the price. Would only recommend for a drink.

Great! Enjoyed the food. Wish the portion was bigger for its costs

This experience at Parlour was average. Service was slow and our food came up at different times

I have some dietary requirements (no gluten, no dairy) and even though the menu highlights that certain dishes can be made gluten and dairy free, the waitress looked visibly annoyed when I asked for the free from version and just kind of glared at me without saying anything. Not sure what I did or said but everyone else at the table noticed and there was an awkward silence after that. We all thought it was uncalled for and quite rude. Food is good, ambience is good (we sat outside) but the staff was quite rude and slow as well. Not sure if I’d go back after that experience - made me feel like I was doing something wrong by making them aware of my intolerances!

The venue is lovely, especially in the summer. The service could be much faster, but they had to cover many tables at the same time!

We ordered cocktails and nibbles upon arrival and requested these arrive before the main meals and sides. The incorrect cocktails arrived so we sent them back however the main meals arrived before the (correct) cocktails and nibbles. We then cancelled the nibbles as we were already eating our mains but the side dishes never arrived!!! A very disappointing experience. We will definitely not be returning for meals over the weekends. The team is obviously too busy serving drinkers to pay any attention to the diners.

Very noisy but clearly is really a bar. Service very slow our food arrived cold... it es left sitting in the service tea for a very long time! We were the only table in there so incredible it took so long and arrived cold. They did take £25 off the bill but I would rather have had hot, prompt food! Won’t go back!

I have been to The Parlour previously and have enjoyed myself a lot. I was disappointed after being there a few hours and eaten a nice meal was told they needed the table and had to leave. There was plenty of tables available and there wasn’t anyone else waiting for a table. If I had been aware we had to vacat after a few hours, I would not have recommended restaurant to my friends.

Nice Decor and service but the food although nicely cooked was Bland in my view. I had the a=scallops to start with that should have been nice, they were well cooked in texture but the potatoe and smoked bacon brought no flavour. I was a bit surprised there was no Saltyness form the bacon which was quite dry. I have cooked with the juices from Chorizo which gives it great kick but It was just bland. I went for the fillet steak for the main which was very well cooked and the I think Garlic butter was very good - top rating for that. The Pepper Sauce was however thick and gloppy and not that peppery and big disappointment. I had the New potatoes with parmesan which was as described and again was expecting some melted butter / parmesan but I could have prepper at home in 1 min extra. The desert was nice which was the sticky toffee pudding the ice cream was good. But the desert range available was disappointing as I fancied something else. The house red was good as well. Would I go back - actually yes but I would go for chips and have the fillet steak as is - as it was very good and at a pretty good price. I would just go for a different starter.

Not enough tables cleared in morning then NONE in evening here ONLY in bar area with very limited menu

Went for brunch. The staff was extremely friendly. The ambience by the front of the place near the windows is nice, though I found it quite dark in the back. I would have left if the only option was to sit there. It was not busy at 10am on a Saturday morning so we had our pick of seats. Now about the food: my friend and I both got the avocado on sourdough with poached eggs. One of my eggs was cooked completely through (yolk not running at all). Both eggs were cold. The avocado was so soaked in lime it was all I could taste, and it was otherwise unseasoned. My friend’s eggs were cooked correctly but her toast was burnt (they did give her a new piece upon request). I don’t feel it was a dish which got the attention of a trained cook, so it was essentially a £10 piece of cold sour toast. My husband reports his pancakes we fine. Nothing special but good enough. Likely will not rerun, as the food did not stand up to the prices.

The Parlour has lots of good things and loads of potential. The food is very nice and the portions are good, especially the roasts. I did not have them but the comment was that the meat was very tasty. Burgers are less substantial but also tasty. Fries servings are a bit on the small side. My main was a lentils veggie option which was well cooked. The restaurant itself is trendy and well kept, but a bit unprepared for big groups wanting to have a lengthy dining experience. We were 8 people for early dinner on a Sunday, booked in advance. We were sat at a high table, with five settings on each side (10 total instead of 8). Sitting on a high table with high chairs for dinner is not very convenient. The table was also not fixed, we had to put the brakes on it ourselves. it was more like a bar for drinks. You could see that other tables (the place was quite empty) were also low tables, more suited for drinks than food, but were set for food. The service was good. We had our own waitress, which seemed to be serving either all or a big part of the floor. As the place got busier, and as we were on a corner, we did feel a bit forgotten. We had to call for attention for both the desserts and payment. In general I think the restaurant is good. A place to go if you find yourself in the area but nothing especial enough to go all the way to Canary Wharf. It feels more suited for drinks than food, but the kitchen does a great job. With that kitchen I believe they should make the effort to cater for sitting down meals and they could be looking at more patrons coming through the doors.

Really poor - arrived for Sunday lunchtime booking, were seated in the back of the restaurant away from other diners and then completely ignored for 15 minutes. It wasn't particularly busy and there were plenty of staff at the front. I went to the bar and asked if we could place our order and was told someone would be over, but still no-one came. 5 minutes later we got up to leave which prompted the guy who seated us to come and try to get us to stay but we decided against and went to The Ivy instead!

Service was confused and laboured, food (and even coffee!) arrived with stone cold poached eggs and cold stale bread. We had to sit on a small table as there were only two of us, even though the 200+ capacity restaurant was empty. Very odd. Manager kindly waived our bill but didn’t apologise. Very disappointing.

Ignored by staff for 5 mins before being seated. After being pointed to our table we were left waiting for a further twenty minutes without being given menus. The place was loud and the tables were messy. We left and went to dinner somewhere else. Would not return.

A vast array of options on the menu. There was a little confusion when asked for the kids mains to come with our starters and ended up with everyone’s starts & mains arriving at the same time. The mezze board was yummy but the lentil and artichoke dish could use some flavour

The Parlour was absolutely lovely. Met friends for brunch. Some of the menu options seemed a little unusual but they worked really well. Will definitely go again.

More than all the other issues that pervaded this joke of an experience, it's the utter failure to deliver food with a style and flair, let alone exciting taste, that disappoints. A chicken breast (desperately flavourless) from the grill served lonely on the plate with a sprinkling of sad pea-shoots, along with a side of root vegetables that felt just somehow just dumped rather than served; a dish of ravioli that was meant to be spinach and ricotta as the pumpkin ravioli was off - yet magically turned out to be almost entirely pumpkin yet with two (yes two) of the spinach and ricotta variety, and a sharing plate of camembert that was supposedly larger than the norm (as it was for sharing) yet seemed just adequate and with three pieces of baguette (between three of us...). I don't know, how much further can I go?: it feels just pointless to complain more when the whole endeavour is so uninspired - the choices listed above make that pretty clear (where is the invention, the creative response to modern taste that would make this good quality environment a go-to destination?). And as we went there with a voucher that offered a promotional discount that they had no clue how to redeem, leaving us to negotiate the "deal", the whole point of motivating us to visit seemed utterly pointless - why would we bother to go again if the deal leaves us feeling underwhelmed? Nope, not going back. Two stars only - mostly because the seating was quite nice...

nice buzzing place, the pumpkin ravioli was amazing

Me esperaba algo más de este restaurante, pero la cocina es pobre. Tome una brocheta de gambas y pescado, totalmente seca, con alcachofas, de acompañamiento, que no estaban mal. Carta de vinos corta. Tome un merlot de Chile, correcto. La luz del restaurante era deficiente y el 12% de extra por el servicio me pareció excesivo. Solo, sino tienes otra opción.

Service was friendly and quick, food good but nothing extraordinary

Nice vibe and attentive service

A very good option in Canary Wharf for a chill yet clean and classy brunch - excellent service and food for reasonable price.

Really enjoyed my meal. The sitting was lovely too

Food and service was lovely, would definitely recommend. Jay and the team were very helpful and accommodating throughout the booking for my group. The fact that your group can pre-order online, via a special link that is emailed over, makes things so much easier too.

Great place and location. We had a quiet area with a view outside. Food options are good, the fish and chips was very filling and tasted great too! I would definitely recommend for dinner, nibbles and drinks.

Fantastic restaurant within the Marriott hotel, lovely design, great food and attentive service. Ordered the ravioli and the lamb and the both were superb. The restaurant has also outdoor space which is nice. Recommend market kitchen for dinner!

Been a few times and my favourite Sunday spot in Canary Wharf. Ambient, warm setting with good food and service. Would recommend.

We visited on Sunday for a birthday and pre Strictly Tour brunch. Our table was booked for 11.00 am although booking wasn't necessary as the restaurant was virtually empty at that time. Unfortunately, we were seated with ALL the only other diners by the door that was left open... not the best as it had to be one of the coldest days of the year or EVER! That said, the coffee was great, my daughter loved her chicken, waffle maple syrup avocado dish and my avocado on sour dough was pretty tasty ... shame about the pre-poached egg that wasn't hot so that was given a wide berth! The staff were really friendly and welcoming, but it just missed the mark for us this time.

I have been here several times before and I really like the place, but I never booked a table and I should add... great service!

For some reason our booking from open table hadn't been received by the restaurant even thought I had received a confirmation but the hostess didn't make a fuss and seated us at a decent table. The food was nice, we shared some starters and I had a yummy fish and lentil dish which was tasty but still quite healthy.

Ordered two beers were told a few minutes later that one was not available - asked for drinks menu again - asked for a different beer - first beer brought to table without glass, asked for glass - waitress returned with other beer and a glass. Still missing a glass and the second beer cap had not been removed from bottle - asked again for a glass and cap to be removed. Ordered two starters and two mains - two mains arrived before the starters ? Asked for starters first - were told mains would be remade but not 100% sure that was the case. Despite the poor service the food was good and that I would not complain about. Finally when asking for the bill the drinks from the next table were on our bill and a charge for the beer that was not available so had to go through the bill and advise what had to be removed. Overall I would not recommend - there are many more restaurants nearby that I would advise to try.

I have been coming to Parlour for several years. I brought 3 colleagues. The quality of food was good. We will return.

Regularly attend Parlour for lunch while in Canary Wharf. Food is of good quality and reasonably priced.

We had an enjoyable business meal at The Parlour. There was more than enough variety on the menu, and although the food wasn't outstanding, the service was very good. The type of seating tried to be different, with lots of different styles. I would definitely go back to The Parlour again.

Went for 60th birthday brunch Six people and a buggy/high chair in cramped space Ran out of all the pastries during the all day breakfast (at 12pm) also no fishpie during the start of lunch service(at 12pm) Poor service no one came to ask for further drinks/food Asked for tap water on arrival was only poured to five out of the six diners Felt rushed Special occasion ruined by the choosing that venue to dine in. The quality of food is good but all the other factors let it down

I reconfirmed my reservation both by phone and email directly to The Parlour. Yet, when I arrived (exactly on time), they had conveniently given my reservation to someone else and had no explanation for it. So reserving a table proved pointless altogether. After 30 mins of scrambling, they managed to put together an alternate table in the lawn. Highly disappointed with the service.

Really kind staff, I had the Green Thai Curry which went down very well! Will always go back to the Parlour, it's always a good time.

Great atmosphere and good food. The sharing platters where really tasty. Waiter staff really friendly and helpful. Would recommend this place

The Parlour accommodated me and my large pram when I met my aunt and cousin-in-law for lunch last Friday. I went for the ste menu while the other two chose a la carte. In the end, two of us had the brownie for dessert and we were not disappointed. Good venue for a normal, everyday catch up with friends with friendly and efficient service.

The service was good, but some of the food was quite bland, and the fish & chips were extremely salty - putting large salt flakes on the fish seemed unnecessary.

attracted by their deco to book for a chill Saturday lunch, food was okay but not exciting, great portions though

Parlour is a very good choice for business meals and friends' get together, the location is very convenient for after-work dinners or work lunches. Menu is varied and food very healthy and imaginative. Prices definitely affordable and staff always caring and friendly.

Tiny chicken portion in my salad

Bustling atmosphere, helpful staff and good food and drinks.

team lunch with work colleagues, very nice food had by all, enjoyed the Pinot wine too

Saturday lunchtime - dead time for Canary Wharf - family in the area so decided to grab a quick pub lunch whilst shopping - the first dish came out and we waited......5 minutes before the next dish came out (there were less than 10 people eating in the restaurant at this point) - my own food (a fairly average wagyu burger) came out by the time the first diner had finished her dish, though with one large error - the cheese was 'still not ready' and would be bought over when it was... Halfway through my burger I was presented with a slice of cheese on a small plate - I suppose I was to place this on my half eaten burger?? More annoying was the constant hovering of 4 separate wait staff that would come over every 3 minutes asking if everything was OK...well it wasn't, and continually interrupting our conversation to ask us didn't help. My burger was thankfully taken off the charge. Still, would never eat there again, better service at a McDonald's...

The best fillet steak I have ever eaten! Food was amazing, staff were really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

My dining companion and I were most impressed with the limited choice special offer for lunch. Chicken Stay starter was a generous portion, and the Thai Salmon curry was both pleasing in its appearance (authentic pots!) and taste. Service was unobtrusive, polite and efficient. Also as a follow up an error in the bill was rectified! I would certainly like to return in the not too distant future.

Tasty food, but probably slightly overpriced. Convenient place to meet for lunch.

Got there and they had no record of my online booking but took it all in their stride. The girl at the desk decided to answer a phone call in the middle of taking us to our table and left us waiting before another host intervened. Table was by the window and the atmosphere was really pleasant. Our waiters were fantastic, just the right amount of banter and professionalism and were attnetive all the way through the meal. The meal itself was nothing to write home about butwas also nothing to complain about. Was good to tuck into after a hard day at work. We then took our drinks outside and sat under the heaters with little blankets and at no point did we feel we had to leave. A really pleasant evening and great if you want to catch a bite after work.

I go to the Parlour regularly, but wanted to give a particularly positive review this time for how the team dealt with the large group booking I made. The brunch went seamlessly and the service and food were great as ever. This is my go-to place in the area for brunch.

While not one of the more memorable dining experiences in an increasingly interesting and innovative Canary Wharf, The Parlour makes a comfortable light filled environment for hanging out, reading the newspaper, doing some work or catching up with friends for dinner or drinks.

Really nice, chilled out place to enjoy brunch or Sunday lunch In the sun.

Everything was really good, just a bit disappointed by the desserts

Lovely place for a nice casual lunch. Would recommend the fresh juices since they're always delicious.

We met here for lunch and had reserved a table indoor. The menu looked interesting and the food was tasty but it took a while from ordering to actually getting the food even though we were a group of 7. I think another big problem for us was that it took a long time to get attention from service to get the bill.

Food was excellent, but service was quite poor as we were struggling to get the attention of the waiters to bring us more wine and pay the bill; quite surprising for such a small space. Parlour still remains just a good place for cocktails after work, but wouldn't recommend the restaurant purely due to its service. This is not the first time this happens, but probably the last.

Get the California Kickstarter - just the right amount of food for brunch: not too much, and not too tight on the portion either. Probably a better choice than their version of a 'Full English', in all honesty!

went on a Friday night with friend for dinner. Conveniently located in Canary Wharf, it's a good place to drop by after work. was going for the set menu but ended up order our own dish given the more variety of choices out there. the only thing is that towards the end the stuff were gathering at a corner to chat near the bar instead of looking out if there's any customers need them, so we almost had to go to the bar to ask for bill... but other than that, overall good experience.

Went for lunch last Sunday with a friend, we booked but it turned out we didn't need to - booking in advance did get us a great table though. The main reason my score isn't higher is because the service really wasn't great. The waitress huffed at us when we asked for another minute to decide, we were never checked on, offered a dessert/coffee menu or asked if we wanted more drinks and not one member of staff smiled for the whole experience. Having said that, the decor was lovely, the food very good and the cocktails were delicious. If the staff could just put a little more effort into acting like they give a damn then this would be a really nice place to eat, but they didn't so while I may go back on the off-chance I won't be going out of my way to do so.

Not the greatest meal we've ever had, main meal came out half way through starter, food and service not the best , will use again as we always give resterants a second chance.

Very nice place. Interesting food! Nice service. Would definitely come back.

Delicious food with a reasonable price, great interior making it warm with a great ambience for you and your friends to chat while you eat. Only concern was the staff, it felt a bit rushed as we were approached by 3 staffs in the time of 15 mins asking if we wanted to order yet. The order in which the food came was a bit odd too as my friend got his main before his starter, and also the portions wasn't very consistent. However, overall it was a great evening with delicious food. Thanks!
