This spot is great for a night out. Was quiet when we went in and seemed to be one the locals liked. There was a man counting out his change for a pint a couple tables down from us. Unsure if they did food so we only had a couple of drinks. There is a good selection and it is a cask mark.

I popped in here for a quick lunch on a weekday, after visiting some nearby historical museums. I wanted an authentic and affordable pub meal, and it met every expectation. I was able to get a British made pint of beer and a steak and kidney pie meal, with quick and friendly service. The food was yummy, portion large, and the bill very reasonable.

5 of us booked here for our annual Christmas Lunch. We were welcomed by a guy dressed in a snowman suit (loved it as it is Christmas). Our table was decked out all Christmassy, complete with drackers. Our food server came to verify our pre orders. We got drinks from the bar and settled in at our table. The food was absolutely delicious, and also hot which is always a good sign. The wait staff were attentive and friendly. We had a wonderful experience. And the guy who sorted out our balance to pay at the end was extremely patient. All in all, one of the BEST Christmas Lunches we've had in many years. WELL DONE TO EVERYONE. We'll definitely be back.

This is in my town, and city, and it is just awful. Another Stonegate pub, and just too expensive. Most lads use the Wetherspoons for honest pricing. Won't be going back.

I’m afraid this was a let down, ordered a chicken and bacon burger, chips were included (but only 12 chips and a few scraps), the salad, or lack of it, in the burger was just a joke. But, worse part of the experience was the gents loo. AWFUL, just awful. It stank, the walls were covered in dried faeces. Not what you want to encounter after your meal. I wonder what the kitchen is like!

Popped along to Leicester for something different and stopped in to the Friary. Pleasantly surprised on entering how inviting and warm it felt. I sat down and ordered on the app which I found easy to use. Within minutes my drink was on its way over by a young lad who was very professional. My drink went down a treat so I ordered another and before I knew it I was on my third. Luckily I was on the 0% stuff so still able to drive home. Will definitely be visiting you again when I’m next in Leicestershire.

Went in here with a friend in last day of government eat out to help out scheme.We ordered burger & chips. About 15 mins later we were presented with a small burger & tiny portion of chips. The burger was possibly the most revolting thing we've ever eaten. Like a cheap frozen burger from Iceland that had just been thawed & deep fried to order. Totally tasteless and the grease dripped in to the plate as we ate.. Gross.With hindsight it was thankful the portion size was so small as both me & my friend very unwell after. We complained at the time however we were shrugged off. In fairness to Stonegate Pubs, I emailed the CEO and a manager called the following evening to apologise. Offered us a free meal which we obviously declined. The meal was subsidised by the government HMRC (ultimately tax payers) to help out the hospitality industry at this difficult time. This is basically a loan which the tax payer will have to pay back in the long term. In the context of this our experience if this pub was disgraceful.

Came in because they had previews of the Scottish footy game on some of their (many) tellys. At the start of the English game, all the TVs switched to that but the bar staff were able to change the tv at any booth to the game I wanted to see, even though it was on BT. A grand pint and at £2.45, astonishingly cheap compared to Edinburgh. Looks like I’ll be back here tomorrow night too.Great pub for a visiting Jock. Thanks for your hospitality

Came here today for lunch with my friend and her two children, being a Saturday afternoon the pub was very busy, we ordered food at the bar and I was surprised at how quickly our food arrived, it was hot and delicious! The only downfall was one young girl working behind the bar had a serious attitude problem! Not only was she rude to her work colleagues in front of everyone at the bar but was also rude to the customers.

Another Fish & Chip Restaurant failure (is there one at 19-21 At Nicholas Place?) led me here. Big pub in a converted old building.

Was laid out with a large table for a firms Christmas doo, but lots of room and various seating arrangements. Nice drinks. Didn,t eat but various menus and low prices. Tv,s and a pool table.

This was our first visit here, the place has had a facelift and looks pretty nice. We did eat here the food was average but it is a cheap deal so you cannot complain. My main gripe was the young staff, other than when they had to serve at the bar the young girls did nothing but laugh anf giggle between themselves whilst tables were left uncleaned, glasses needed collecting. We had 3 drinks, ate and tables which had dirty plates etc were still there when we left the staff were just too busy on a jolly. don't get me wrong they were pleasent enough but they needed someone there to gee them up badly. At one point another young man did show his face now he I guessed was the "one in charge" he didn't do anything to motivate the staff just strutted around in his baseball cap and parka which didn't look very professional to be honest. The disabled toilets were also left permenantly open so all and sundrie who were too lazy to go to the other toilets were using them. These toilets have a key for a reason!

We tried this pub for lunch and for the first time a couple of days ago. It is an excellent city centre venue, with a comprehensive and inexpensive menu. There is also a good variety of draught beers, spirits and wine on offer and from Monday until Saturday there is a speciality day on the menu each day, ranging from chicken, grills and fish.There is also a vegetarian option. We tried the "build a plank" option which consisted of choosing five sharing plates, which are brought to the table on a wooden plank server. The food was well prepared and served. The staff are very friendly and very efficient, one server entering into the spirit of Christmas wearing a Christmas style suit. The service we found to be very good and prompt, with tables being wiped down beforehand. Condiments were brought along with the food and drink by very friendly staff. Our meal for two, along with a bottle of wine came to just under £20 and was good value. Although they were very busy at the lunchtime, staff were very good and attentive with no long waiting. This is certainly a venue we will use again. Being a city centre venue there is no car parking there but car parks are nearby and within walking distance.

on a Monday night. Really wanted a chicken burger which is what I ordered. Menu said 'served plain' but when it came it had been coated in some bread-crumby thing which I had to pick off. Salad was old but edible and given the prices, no surprise. Chips were nice. Food came quickly, eaten quickly, no reason to hang around. If I'd known Leicester better I could doubt have chosen somewhere better to eat but I don't, so I ended up here.

Popped in as my partner was craving onion rings. Sat down, picked up the menus and chose our food. There was a really good deal on big plates, so we went for that. Overall, our meals came to a tenner, and they were massive. The food was really tasty too, there was absolutely nothing to grumble about. The service we received was great, the staff are really polite and helpful. The atmosphere was really quiet and relaxed, as it wasn't a night where Leicester City were playing a game, I imagine on those days it's a lot busier! But overall, it was great.

I tried the recommended Steak and double Gloucester pie and had a couple of pints. Very cheap, pie was nice enough, veg and mash was standard. Not great but not bad. Took quite a while for them to serve the food up and I waited at the bar forever before getting served as lots of customers came and went before I got served, wasn't impressed. Clientele are quite gruff but friendly. Seems to be bar people come to to get tanked up on the cheap before a big night out. Saw lots of groups doing rounds of shots. Not something I'm used to seeing in London from people in their 30s and 40s but meh, they didn't cause any trouble.

A step up from a Wetherspoons though the same great value for money is the same, the quality and cleanliness is better.

The place in itself is a nice traditional pub, good for having a pint or two.Our mistake was that we chose to eat at this place. I ordered the chicken noddles. Not only the taste was average, but also the plate was just warm. As I continued eating, to my suprise, I found that the bottom part of my plate was cold as it was in the fridge, which only makes me assume that the food was kept in the fridge and microwaved to order, which I find unacceptable. When I reported the issue at the bar, they did not actually appologise or offered me any refund, but they just said that they were "going to fix it". A little bit later, another plate came to my table, which did not have the same presentation as the first one or the once in the catalogue picture and was warm once again. Very disappointed with this place, I am sorry but I will never go back.

went in for a drink on Sunday and had a soup, chicken goujons and a vegetarian burger. food ok. only thing that worried me was that the barman said he needed to keep my husband's card if he wanted to have a tab running. i sent him back to the bar to get it back. you are not allowed to keep cards. you should never let your card out of your sight as this is how scams occur. 2 stars bwcause of that. 3 otherwise.

Abbiamo pranzato in questo locale una domenica del mese di settembre 2016. Quattro compagni di classe decisi a mangiare qualcosa insieme e a lavorare su un progetto prima e dopo il pasto. Ci siamo trovati molto bene al The Friary! Il locale non era molto affollato e abbiamo potuto lavorare in tutta tranquillità! Tra le varie proposte (anche tipiche) di un menù molto ampio, ho scelto un club sandwich con patatine, davvero spaziale! Un panino a tre strati semplicemente perfetto! I prezzi sono ottimi e il personale gentile. Bagni molto puliti! Lo consiglierei a famiglie, coppie e gruppi di amici!

Waited 45 minutes for the toughest bbq chicken melt I've ever had. If I wasn't so hungry would off asked for refund

We sat down as I had been recommended this as cheap eats place in Leicester. The two of us went for the Bacon and Cheese beefburger at sometime like £7.29 each? But combined is £7.99 for two. We did ask for two salads, but received one with chips (not a problem, I was torn when ordering) and the food was lovely. So eating alone, not such a good deal. The drinks were cheap too. And the service was a little quirky, but friendly. I'd happily go back and it's very central, just behind the market.

The bouncers were not friendly and seemed to have a problem with my friend for no reason at all. There were lots of single men leering and trying to touch us or make us drink their drink. I feel it would be safer if people weren’t allowed to attend as singles

¡Una joya escondida! El interior es anticuado pero tiene un cierto encanto, y la primera aparición delata totalmente la calidad de primera categoría de la comida. Pedí el ‘Brunch Special’ y pensé que la comida era espectacular. Pan casero esponjoso tostado y enmantecado perfectamente, aguacate delicioso y fresco (¡no marrón a la vista! ) , tomates y champiñones llenos de sabor y cocinados a la textura justa. El huevo escalfado se cocinó a través de él en lugar de corrido, pero funcionó bien, ya que siempre he preferido que sean mermeladas. ¡Mi papá tomó las tortitas y dijo que estaban deliciosas! El servicio era amable, rápido, y una buena mezcla de relajado pero profesional. Camarera manejó mis alérgenos muy bien - nunca sentí que eran un inconveniente, y sentí que se comunicó a la cocina bien. Los tamaños de las porciones eran justo para mí y los precios son razonables para la calidad de la comida. Mi única pequeña queja sería no tener hielo con mi bebida y la falta de música de fondo exageró la tranquilidad de la habitación. En general, una experiencia encantadora y lo recomendaría encarecidamente - si viviera más cerca este sería sin duda un lugar favorito para frecuentar!
