This is a great pub if you like music and having a good time.be careful if you park in the car park it's easy to miss the sign saying you need to register your car.I was concentrating on not clipping the wall and ending up getting a £60 parking notice.This was my first visit so the manager has agreed to sort out for me.any way beware and enjoy a really good pub.

Went for an open mic event. Staff very friendly and pub has a good vibe. It's very much a football pub with big screen TV and lots of football themed decoration. Games room outside with table tennis and skittles. There did seem to be a lot of kids running around. Drinks are mainstream brands. 2 handpulls for real ale but no real cider on offer (only thatchers on draught plus a selection of bottled fruit ciders like old moult) will be back for more music but if you are a real ale/cider drinker the choice may be disappointing.

The Black Dog in Oadby has been my local for a few years now but I’ve never before reviewed it on Trip Advisor.It’s a proper community pub with a fantastic landlord and landlady in Ronnie and Kully and plenty or characters that will welcome you to this very friendly pub.There is a good selection of beers plus sport, music and jukebox available every day and they normally have some entertainment on Saturdays.The main thing that comes across when you visit however is the age range of the clientele where young and old mix together with total respect and simply have fun.What a great pub !

The service was good.All the facilities are good.Beer choice was good. Beer served was good.Overall satisfied, just shame about food!! I hope the landlord will sort this (food).

Excellent service, the owner is extremely considerate and helpful. Nice selection of different draft beers and if that isn't enough, plenty of bottled beers to choose from. Additionally, the gin selection is quite extensive and you can also get a variety of other things. All in all, the atmosphere is like in a stereotypical British pub. And I don't mean that in a bad way at all. If you're looking for a great pub to pass time at or for meeting up with friends, look no further.

Not only where the portions sizes very generous , the food was very well seasoned, tasty and cooked to perfection. The staff and landlord were extremely friendly and the whole atmosphere within the pub was warm and welcoming. Would definitely recommend this place if you want quality beer, tasty food all set within a lovely ambience.

From the moment we walked in we were made very welcome by the landlord Ron and his team. Very courteous and attentive. The pub is a hidden gem full of character and charm. The selection of beers is varied as are the spirits. The food is excellent value, with ample portions and a good home made menu selection. We passed on our compliments in person to the chef as our dish was cooked to perfection and was on par with much more expensive restaurants. We will definitely be back again and if you are ever in Oadby and searching for a local pub with good food this is the one!

The indoor and outdoor area is clean and well decorated as well as inviting . I have even pre booked my birthday party there in September. I have been to many bars and pubs but rate this one the best in oadby . Well done guys and we will see you again very soon for the delicious food and drinks and company. Ricky and Pam and family
