The King's Head in Leicester

Awesome pub. Well worth a few drinks inside.

Lovely warm pub. Nice beer, roaring fire, friendly staff.

Great selection of ales. Unfortunately came on a day when there was a rugby derby match on so place was heaving ,couldnt move, barely anywhere to stand and took ages to get served

Great pub with excellent selection of beers. A proper pub real ales with outdoor area

Another good pint or real ale today. I have had many good pints of Salopian here.

Friendly, good terrace, good beer.

Traditional pub ,nice woody feel.Has a village/ countryside feel in the middle of town.

Great beer friendly staff. Great for a pre match pint. Ridiculous hard quiz on a Thursday but throughly entertaining. Worth a visit.

Traditional pub. Great selection of ale with samosas or cobs on the side.

Cosy pub with incredible atmosphere! Perfect for a nice date or just to chill and slow down a bit. Music was not too loud, perfect for a talk - there was no need to scream to each other as in many other pubs. Place, despite old building and decor, also seemed clean and well maintained, giving the grandpa home vibe. Staff was also friendly and helpful. I will definitely visit again!

Great pub. Very friendly and great choice of cask beers. The vegetable samosas are really good and very reasonably priced.

Lovely pub, has been kept in lovely condition and improved over the years. The beer range isn’t the most adventurous, but that’s a relief as I’m getting sick of these hibiscus and lychee sour black IPA monstrosities. I’d say it’s the nicest yet most affordable pub in the city centre. Bar staff are always polite and patient, and know which customer is next. Cheers!

Nice pub with good selection of real ales and friendly staff and really reasonable prices

Great pub! Great selection of beers, and the samosas and cobs are fantastic

Smoothly run pub..good atmosphere and location..shows sport and has quiz nights..no trouble or riff-raff...all of this down to paul and his staff..take a bow

Superb pub. Food, people, friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Everything you need in a decent pub, great ale, welcoming landlord and a freindly atmosphere. As a bonus, excellent rolls and samosas, with a roaring fire during winter

Good selection of beers , nice atmosphere , good service , even when busy .

Great choice of beers ,staff very good. nice interior real fire another gem from Black Country Ales.

Superb range of ales and the right number of staff on a very busy shift to keep things moving. And snacks!

Decent pub, friendly staff. Very, extremely busy on match days! A bit too busy for me, but the other people I was with loved it. Cheese and onion 'tiger' cobs are also worth mentioning!

Lovely pub, great atmosphere, very friendly staff

Lovely pub, warm and friendly. Has a fireplace, good selection of real ales, and a few specialty ciders and porters.

I go to this place after football very busy but able to get served . Bar snacks only

Cosy pub with a great selection of reale ales 🍻. No food rating as only had beer!

Nice pub thanks for the welcome

Up at 5 and a 5-hour train trip to Leicester to watch "The Argyle " in Leicester today!! Really nice pub, plenty of real ales. And very good service. Met up with the "Midland cronies" and I had a couple of Black Horse Christmas ales, which were excellent. Could have done without the full Christmas music, though !! But hey ho I am a Grinch!!! We got stuffed, but who cares 🤔 😁. Still a cracking day out and we get to go back to sunny Plymouth 🌞

Friendly, safe, cosy...perfect for after work.

Great real ale pub in the city centre. Good bar staff and a good place to watch the footie

A great local! Cosy fire, good company and good selection of beverages and pub snacks. A hidden gem in the heart of the city 🌟🌟🌟

Great cold food selection from the bar, yummy samosas and cobs

Great pub, great staff, great beers.

No food ordered. Great beer selection at reasonable prices

Grest choice of beers. Nice pub.

Popped in to see an old friend, a really nice pub, a friendly landlord, and a great selection of beers. A great pub for a drink. Gets very busy when the Tigers play.

This WAS a pub that I really enjoyed visiting, until tonight. I was attending with my usual group of friends for the pub quiz, when I overheard a member of staff talking negatively about me. Note: I am a recovering alcoholic, and there are times when I relapse. The first time that I attended the quiz, I was relapsing, so I was rather drunk. Thankfully, my friends know of my recovery, and took care of me. Since then, I have had no issue. A member of the bar team, a brunette girl, was loudly complaining about me. She said that I "come in all the time and get sloshed, then have people take care of me." Two other members of staff agreed with her, and encouraged her rant, all whilst I was sitting barely a meter away, overhearing it all. When I confronted them, they shut their lips, and later gaslight me to try and make themselves look innocent. As a Bartender myself, I would never speak so ill of a guest, let alone in front of them. If I notice that someone drinks heavily, or is generally struggling, I reach out to them. The fact that this girl dragged me down speaks highly of her character, along with the two other members of staff who encouraged her 'rant.' I left the venue in tears tonight. I haven't spent a year in recovery to be dragged by a child without a lick of empathy in her. Better yet, why did those two boys allow it? And then try to convince me that they "weren't involved"? Embarrassing. Definitely won't be returning, despite the fact that I enjoy the venue, and the quiz. I no longer feel welcome here. The 'sloshed girl' will take herself elsewhere, hopefully somewhere that understands recovery, and has sympathy for those with former addiction.

What a great real ale traditional pub. Friendly locals that were happy to talk to us and Paul the landlord, very knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Great friendly service and excellent pub

Great pre match boozer for Rugby & Football as closr to both grounds

Plenty of real ale taps (that's the important bit!) and a nice characterful interior. Part of the extensive Black Country group of pubs (45?). As 'chains' go, well above average!

Quite splendid traditional pub in the centre of Leicester that offers a great range of cask ales (a dozen taps or more) at moderate prices. The pub is nicely decorated and comfy, and there's a small outside seating area in the back that even has its own TV. Nice community atmosphere, friendly and competent service. All round one of the best traditional pub options in the city.

Great pub, great beer; wish we had more pubs like this. As for those that comment about the punters in cobwebs, head into the centre.

Poor service. First time in Melton mowbry and get served last in the queue. First pict the guys

We discovered this gem of a pub while walking around the centre of Leicester trying to find a decent pint. Excellent choice of beer, friendly and helpful staff. This is now our "go to" place whenever we visit Leicester. 100% recommended.

Fantastic real ale pub in a beautiful area of the city.

Great pub, quite a few ales to choose from.

Friends enjoy a variety of beer. I don't like the cobs.

Nice pub dut for 2 pints 10.50p

Good beer, relaxed atmosphere, friendly and helpful service.

Always guaranteed a good experience in the kings head 👍

Great selection of ales available before the match

Good selection of beer and good service. A bit crowded but that was because after a Tigers home game

What's not to like??!! Become a tradition to visit whilst in town for a Tigers game!

Proper pub, had a nice stout when i was there, a typical before the game place.

Great pub with decent ale selection. Even better when served with a Cherries away win.

Lovely place. Staff is helpful, answer every question and offer you to taste ales. Sitting next to fire place is fantastic after being out in cold.

Great pub. Changed over the years but still traditional.

Recently started frequenting this establishment and have been pleasantly surprised , there is a very welcoming atmosphere with good beers and ciders ,music played a volume suitable for having a conversation without having to shout a great cross between a local and town pub

Very good Leicester pub. 12 cask beers on handpump when I last visited including a stout and a mild. Lots of outdoor seating some of it covered.

Decent pint of guinness, warm fire, clean, friendly atmosphere, Dog friendly, But no disabled access from the front entrance, and different levels inside, nice old pub.

Well kept beer, bar snacks, sports channels but not intrusive. Friendly pub

Really lovely little pub. Fire was on, nice relaxed atmosphere. Bar man was lovely. The place was extremely clean.

Great place to meet and have a drink before the rugby

Great landlord and lovely place definitely recommend and live sports

Was absolutely horrible, it smelt so bad I felt like I was going to be sick

Don't visit that often as I don't live in Leicester, but when I do there is always a good selection of ales, and a nice welcome

Friendly staff, classic decor and a great selection of ales.

Great choice of beers, well kept and a great, very friendly barman

Great little Leicester pub with out door terrace seating.

Only been 2 times. Better than most pubs in city centre and was busy both times so shows me how good it is

Great pub full of a great selection of craft beers and a good amount of screens

Friendly staff & great samosas! Perfect for getting together - heated smoking area under cover available too which is great in the winter but even better in the summer!

Near perfect. Just didn't change the stout quickly enough.

Great beer would drink there again! Nice pub atmosphere, tasty cheese and onion cobs.

Super friendly, great selection of beers ales and ciders and a pub cat. What more could you ask for?.....although we've not seem the cat in a while......

Another Black country ales pub that struggles to justify having the volume of ales on the bar, quality suffers as a result, stuffy bar area, outside is for smokers, and is grim, decent food in the form of rolls etc are served at the bar. Get very busy when Leicester Tigers have home fixtures.

As pubs go, this one is as close to faultless as you can find in Leicester.

Really good pint of Tiger. Well done.

Our first visit to The King's Head and what a lovely pub !!

Great selection of beers and a nice rooftop terrace to enjoy them on.

Fantastic little pub, with a lovely little roof terrace.

Just a top top establishment.. fantastic staff.. top top pub..

Stinks and the lagers too expensive

Great little pub just off the main drag in Leicester and somewhere to relax if a break from shopping is needed. Great range of drinks, real ales & spirits

Lovely little pub. I attended a Thursday quiz night and had lots of fun.. all ages welcome and didn’t feel out of place! Will be returning frequently!!

Amazing little traditional puwith a beautiful roof terrace

Nice pub, good selection of beers. Staff very friendly. Offered a taster of couple beers. Called in whilst visiting Leicester on work and looking for a nice pub when going tonreturn on a Rugby Weekend, has a nice garden area too.

Lovely sun terrace on roof, friendly staff witha great selection of real ales

An excellent venue that shouts British Pub. A wide range of beers cider and lager. A must visit for all serious pub goers

Brilliant range of well-kept ales and a warm welcome

Black country ales pub. Friendly decent beer and bar snacks

Mentioned in series 1 episode 4 of ‘This is MY house’... ‘Roaring fire’ 😂

Good friendly pub with good beer range. Bar snacks available

Clean pub with a nice roof garden. Beer was nice.

Excellent pub with a fine selection of ale, very knowledgeable staff and a lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend coming here.

2nd visit to Leicester City and well worth a visit to this pub
