It’s changed its use from music and fun to playing games you have to pay to do! Definitely not going anymore yet it used to be fabulous and popular!

Pretty flippant with their opening hours, says online open Thursday, Friday and Saturdays 9-3am. Specifically went out to go there last night (Friday at around 12am) and wasn't open 🤷‍♂️

As a loyal customer of The Kelso we were extremly disappointed by the reopening. The Bouncers were extremely aggressive and didn't show any compassion nor adherence for licensing regulation and made my group feel extremely embarrassed and bemoralised. Considering they only opened last week, I would expect that they would want to encourage custom from locals, but the way that treated us and made us feel the exact opposite. Disgusting customer service and bouncer staff, I hope that they adapt a more welcoming aditude going forward they're service. The bouncer staff should be more considering and accommodating to customers.

Newly reopened after a great refurb. Really lovely environment, great cocktails and stunning roof terrace. A great late night addition to Loughborough

Visited for the Tuxedo Swing event in February. A great venue with good cocktails and fantastic happy hour drinks deals. The interior of the bar is very nice, which adds to the intimate and cosy vibe. The live band were fantastic, which definitely made for a really good evening out in Loughborough. We'll be keeping an eye out on upcoming events!

Just wanted to say on behalf of the Cocktail Society, thank you to the staff who hosted us the other night. All our members really enjoyed the drinks they got to make with the team there. Danny, Michala and Katy were great for helping us out and as always we’ll be back to collaborate with the Kelso again in the near future!

Last night we hosted our Cocktail Social at the Kelso and they were absolutely amazing! Our bartender Dan was incredibly efficient and friendly! Thank you as well to Katy for dealing with the homophobic patron! A star. Thank you again to everyone at the Kelso, from the Lboro LGBT+ committee ❤️

The LGBT+ Association at Loughborough were recently hosted by The Kelso in the upstairs room. As always, they provide such a wonderful atmosphere, always treat us extremely well and are very attentive. Dan, the bartender was fantastic, making cocktails the entire evening and chatting away to all our members, he made us feel extremely welcome. Danny, who helped us organise the evening was extremely attentive and made our experience with The Kelso a brilliant one. Katy was also a star, she engaged brilliantly with our community, and when we unfortunately had an incident with a patron who shouted a slur at our community, without hesitation she went after the patron and assured us he’d never be welcome again. This did not affect the experience one bit. Everyone was so welcoming, we had a fantastic event, and we know that The Kelso supported us 100%. On behalf of the LGBT+ Association we really want to sincerely thank you. It means a lot to be so welcomed and supported, we look forward to coming back!

Attended for an event and the drinks were tasty and bar tenders had some good recommendations. Staff were also really friendly and there was a lively atmosphere.

We booked a social here for a murder mystery evening and it was a huge success. We booked through Danny who was really helpful and accommodating, providing everything we asked for, such as an aux cord. Everyone had an amazing evening! The venue was perfect for gathering and the cocktails are amazing too! Amazing cocktails (my favourite is Danny's Chocolate Orange!).

Micha is great. Makes the place feel like it's full of friends. Great music and no fighting! Even the door staff will sneak you in for free if you're cool 😎

The worst club I’ve ever been to. Needs a massive renovation. The chairs are broken. The toilets are worst then a prison. And the venue stinks of urine

Extensive (and tasty) cocktail menu, good draught beers, cheery bar staff and friendly door staff, what more could you ask for? 10/10 would recommend :-)

This is possibly the best stake I’ve ever had, served on a volcanic slab and comes served rare so the longer you leave it on there the more it cooks to your liking. Had this been a fillet steak, I wouldn’t have complained as it was so tender.

A group of us booked for lunch and ordered in advance. The staff were very pleasant and helpful , service was good as was the food with a choice of portion size for some dishes. My meal was missing peas but this was quickly rectified. The cakes looked delicate and tyere was one desert and ice-cream om offer yoo. The tea rooms are warm which was good as the weather outside was awful. There is outside seating for good weather days. There are a few charity shops on site and walks in the grounds, weather permitting and a model railway open on Wednesdays and Fridays. Definitely worth a visit.

Have eaten here a few times over the years. Always very friendly service. Food has always been good value with good portion size too. Could be improved with menus on tables instead of having to look at the boards behind the counter to choose what to eat.

Possibly the best latte I have had in Leicestershire (up to this date of course), I don't know how they do it...especially as I'm borderline addicted to the things If you get a chance try the vanilla latte and let it cool slightly. Worth every penny. The foods decent as well and the premises is very quirky but unique.

Found this cafe quite by chance and it's lovely. Clean and bright and very good food. Jacket spud cooked to perfection. Scampi and fries had loads on the plate. Service with loads of smiles and laughs. Will definitely come back again when shopping in Loughborough.
