The local hero is a big local city pub with Television in great places to watch the big games. The time we were in I observed one or two families which was nice (5.00 pm). The food was okay, the staff were keeping on top of things it's a big place. I imagine when the city or Tigers are at home it's one busy place.

Charley was exceptional the meal was amazing and the speed of the meal coming out for there being 17 of us was amazing. The staff are incredibly friendly and always welcoming. We have been here many times and everytime it gets better and better. Absolutely recommend as a place for 2, 4, 6 or 20 people etc they can cater everyone and have a great selection.

I am disappointed with this place. We were there on Saturday after 7 p.m. for a beer and a drink and to eat something. Unfortunately, we received the beer in disposable cups even though we sat inside, opposite the bar. Beer prices vary at 7 p.m. (£4) and then after 8 p.m. (6.25 a.m.) they are much more expensive and are still served in disposable cups. We have already given up on one, although it could have been tasty. Regards

It's not going to be your go to local i get it for its location its great but how you can charge them prices for a pint in Leicester in a bang average pub at best is beyond me. the outside 'beer garden' is poor but understandable as they are using what space they have but the inside is really big

Food: The chefs need to work on their timing and some basics when it comes to skillet plates (wet onions on a hot plate whilst the steak is sizzling leads to water sitting on the skillet, the steak then is essentially boiling removing flavour from the meat) fix the basics and this becomes a non issue. Service: Excellent, the ladies in here work their ass off and still manage to keep a smile and be very helpful & attentive. Absolutely faultless. Atmosphere: Bit rowdy and some of the patrons here can be quite obnoxious, but that's not a slight on the staff or bar. They probably should keep them in check better.

Where do I start. We have been visiting here for years and year, we used to split between the local hero and counting house which is up the road spent plenty of our hot days here and some rainy days. Food- hit and miss. Can vary. Steak on hot plates are good sometimes. Sometimes we’ll majority of the time it’s hit and miss. Friendly locals. Very friendly locals, friendships were built within the establishment and continue outside, my family and myself were very delighted at first back when BEN use to run the place. There is a new owner now and I’m sorry but you need to work on your public service skills and quite frankly my family and myself will not be visiting this poorly ran pub. Rude owner.

BEWARE MATCH-DAY PRICES. £7.10 a pint. Which is at least £2 more expensive than drinking in the actual ground. Which feels like a con. It’s pretty bad when it’s cheaper to drink inside a sporting ground. Food is ok, but is often sold out, unless I’m just unlucky. Service has always been good, friendly with a positive attitude and chatty.

Have been coming here for many years I have a blue light card and have never had an issue before however today they put the order through and took the bluelight off but didn’t mention that due to their ^special offer^ it actually cost me more than it would without the bluelight, I asked them about this and was met with a rude and confrontational attitude from the bar maid saying basically I should have read the terms and conditions( I have it doesn’t say anything about not being used with in-house discounts or special offers) I asked to speak with the manager who also gave me attitude and said take it up with bluelight I said surely you should have made me aware that the discount would be less than the special offer and you couldn’t use both? She said I can refund you and it will take 6-7 days to return to card but you will have to order and pay again without the discount o said just leave it she said next time read your terms and conditions I may be in the wrong I can’t see in t and c that what they say is true but really was their a need for the attitude? However on a lighter note when the food FINALLY arrived (it’s lunchtime) it was very nice

Service was great, staff nice but tables and menus not clean. Tables hadn’t been wiped down, many had sticky marks on and we arrived 11.30 so can only assume from day before. The ones that were you could see dirty streak marks as if they were cleaned with dirty cloths. The menus were filthy. Had to try several tables before got half clean ones. They were covered in spilt drinks and food. Debated leaving but it was my sons birthday and we had got a taxi there and limited on time so just hoped the kitchen was clean. The food tasted very nice but by the time I got home it was exiting the building. Will not be going back again. The cost is reasonable but £55 for 4 meals, soft drinks can get so much better elsewhere and not end up on the loo 2 hours later

The food was delicious but the evening was let down by the poor service. We had to continually try and catch the attention of the staff in order to get more drinks for the table. It's also unfortunate you have to walk through a very crowded bar from the restaurant area to reach the bathrooms, which were flooded and in poor condition, including cubicles being occupied by gentlemen quite obviously partaking in illegal activities. The live music in the bar was also extremely loud, even in the restaurant area, which made talking to one another difficult. There should be some form of partition to separate the two areas. As I said, the food is excellent, but it is expensive, so the service and facilities need to be improved to warrant the prices.
