The Woolpack Inn in Leicester

Food is great but service is bad it takes long to get served

I took the veg biryani and tarka daal for takeaway and i enjoyed the most authentic food i have ever ate.Thank you woolpack and the team.

amazing food. Friendly driver and great delivery

Sorry but I should have checked the food hygiene rating before we went. So will not be eating there again.

Good portions and nice tasty food. They just need to work on their hygiene rating.

Had a great meal, food was super tasty, thank you chefs, all the staff were excellent, the young lady from Leeds made us feel so welcome, and I recommended a visit.

missing chutneys from our poppadom tray- not a huge issue, just left with poppadoms on their own

I have visited the place and received a great food and service.

Shocking food … shocking service and will never return again ! Disgusted by the prices and service ! Poor management

Been there a few times now and must mention that the service is so lovely, cool ambiance and anyone who’s planning to go there should try chilli fish!!! It’s the best!

I was there with my friends had a great experience in the garden, they changed there menu and food it was lovely new flavours and different new options. Great service by the staff. Thanks for the lovely hospitality.

It was great hospitality by the lovely staff and food was completely new taste with lots of flavours my family members enjoyed it a lot and they got nice cocktails as well it was a great place for chilling with family and friends with large garden as well.

Nice food and good service, friendly staff

it was good experience with family children had a great time in garden and staff was friendly sujjested great food and drinks want to visit it soon again.

Best curries and sizzlers in leicester Service was good Butter chicken is the speciality Tandoori mix grill was very tasty Nice garden sitting for summer

Amazing food and service. Thank you

Food ordered is not what is described and staff don't want to know about it! Worst service and food and I will never ever return to Woolpack! Avoid them at all costs!!!

Great food and very friendly staff. Highly recommended 👌

Very tasty food. One of the best chicken madras that I have ever had. Will definitely be back!

Such lovely people who run this pub , we couldn't find no where to take the dogs for a drink after our walk we decided to try the wool pack, they let us sit in there garden even though no dogs are allowed and there's signs to say so , someone even came out and offered to get some water for them but they already had some but I thought it was lovely of them to ask. Thankyou so much.

Don't bother you will wait forever for your food beer tastes waterd down to. And the toilets stink plus the waitress took a big bin to be emptied in to the big dustbin outside put it back and did not even wash her hands just carried on how disgusting 😑

this is the first time I've ordered and I love their food it is amazing thank you so much keep up the good work.

A good pub is defined by its quality food and drink, but what truly makes a pub great is the sense of belonging and warmth it offers. From the moment my wife and I stepped into Woolpack Pub, we felt like family. As someone who has always lived in the area, I have a deep appreciation for local establishments. However, my wife, who comes from the north where Indian pubs are less common, was initially anxious about fitting in. Woolpack Pub dispelled all her fears by welcoming us both with open arms. What sets Woolpack Pub apart is its exceptional family-friendly and woman-friendly atmosphere. The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home, fostering an environment where all can relax and enjoy. This inclusive and inviting atmosphere is as important as the delicious food and drinks they serve. Woolpack Pub has become our go-to spot, not just because of its great cuisine, but because it treats every customer like a valued member of the community. For its outstanding hospitality and warm, inclusive environment, it’s what makes them so great Additionally, I would like to give a special shout out to Alex for his hardworking service. His dedication and friendliness significantly contribute to the welcoming ambiance that makes Woolpack Pub so special.

Really great service and beer . Alex is always welcoming and the food is also on point . Highly recommended

Pints are brill & so is the staff. Have had 4 different dishes since the new chef has come in & the food is top notch.

(take away) Food taste average and atleast salad has been served fresh. disappointed.

To the Head Chef: Navy Seals “drop the weapon now” P.S. how come I never c u drift

I’m here to offer the head chef a peaceful solution… a race

I ordered food absolutely horrible, small portion big price wouldn't recommend

Always a pleasure coming here for great food and a great experience! The new menu is absolutely fantastic, a great range of choices to cater for all. The staff were extremely hard working and accommodating for all dietary requirements. We love the new cocktail menu! A great addition to the already array of beverages and beers on draught. I would highly recommend taking advantage of the beer garden in the summer!!!

The food wasn’t as great as I thought it was going to be. We ordered the paneer butter masala and naan and the mixed veg sizzler. The sizzler wasn’t nearly as hot as I thought it would be. The food cooled down way too quickly which made me doubtful about whether it was microwaved. The service was quite slow to be fair once the food had come out. After we got the bill, one of the waitresses told us she’d be right back so we could pay but we waited at least 10-15 mins before we got up and just went to the front. The lady was tending to other customers and clearing up so I think she’d forgotten we were there. There was hardly anyone around at the front that we could have easily not paid and left and I don’t think anyone would have noticed!

Food is excellent, but the service is extremely poor. We had to wait nearly 3 hours for the food which never came in sequence. Not going there again Disappointing

Overpowered with spice barely warm and unappealing to the eye, would recommend the broadway anyway over this

THE NEW CHEF MAKES THE FOOD TO SALTY

Absolutely horrendous! Avoid! They stuck us in a little corner A drunken man kept coming to our table and harassed us. Staff did nothing about it. We waited 1 and a Half hours for our food. And not even the starters had come!! The waitress kept smirking and saying “Just 10 minutes more” every so often We then proceeded to just walk out Apparently they have a new chef and new management. I won’t ever go again.

ordered by phone spoke to 3 different people to order when I paid they repeated all of my card details out loud despite asking them not too rang again when food hadn't arrived after an hour and 45 minutes spoke to 3 people again last one hung up.food arrived 2hrs after order one dish missing curry sauce filled at least a fifth of the container it came in and all the other dishes were nothing like the food I've had from there before which used to be excellent. not so this time best thing was the nan bread binned half of it .massive disappointment all round .NEVER GOING BACK.

Ordered a fish curry as per Deliveroo. Was delivered Battered fish in a curry sauce. It was not described as such on Deliveroo or on their menu online. Called the restaurant to ask how their fish curry usually is prepared. They stated tilapia fish in a curry and no battered fish (fish pakora) is used. Essentially given lots of batter with a tiny amount of fish in a generic curry sauce. When I called I was told a host of lies such as “maybe the chef was trialing another recipie” absolute load of rubbish. Would not recommend the food or the service. Advised them to state what they serve if they intend to serve the wrong dishes.

Order never came, I called twice and I was advised I will get my food. Felt so embarrassed in front of my guest. Food never turned up. Why much disappointment

I really didn't mind that it was late as it was still very hot when it arrived the food was absolutely amazing the chicken in the chicken curry was so tender and the aloo Gobi was out of this world thoroughly enjoyed it can't wait to order again

been a few times lately and tried different things and enjoyed them all the staff have been friendly and polite the prices are average to most other places. we recently went as a table of 17 and all the meals came out around the same time and no one in the group had a complaint.as our favourite restaurant visual has closed down this is now are new favourite.the new drinks prices are a deffo plus.

Nice friendly staff good food and serving good good manners friendly atmosphere we will come back with more friends must try mix Grill platers Garlic Naan chicken samosa and Haryali chicken curry...and many more.....

Top place for a Saturday Sizzler. Sky sports, decent priced beers and top food

It was always good to be at woolpack

Extremely tasty king prawn curry balanced by fragrant rice - excellent!

Great food and great beer! Easily the best curries in leicester

Butter chicken and boneless sizzler

Ordered £70 food from this Restaurant. Was told 35 min wait. 2 Hrs & 2 phone calls later the food turns up. Not acceptable . Will not use again 👎

Lovely fish methi curry, poppadom, salad and dip but the roti was very tough. Still tasty though!

Good value Indian restaurant and sports bar. It is divergent, depending on factors like what season, or celebration, or what live sports is on the big TV etc Nice food.

Portion had little meat and the veg in the curry was cut up too big will not be ordering again

Always a great experience and time coming here! The staff are so welcoming and the food is always fresh. If you are looking for somewhere for great service, beers on draught, Indian cuisine and top notch service. Shout out to Thaun for always making us feel welcome!

Very disappointed with service. Was not busy yet services were slow. Men's washroom pathetic Very dirty no soap in dispenser, drinking glasses were dirty, I'd rather do takeout have food at home no complaints with food good food

Lovely food, good atmosphere, and the service was brilliant

went as a group of 8 last week and 4 of us ended up having food poisoning from the food. im only recovering now. deffo wont be eating from there again!

Amazing food! There are alot of options for vegan dishes which i love! i always get a Chana Masala, high recommend!

Good was fantastic and plentiful however the salad was very small not even enough for one person.

Got recommended to go to the woolpack for dinner wish we had not gone we decided to try the beer garden we ordered drinks first before our meal. There was kids running around all over the tables jumping up and down on them and customers have to eat there meals of them + rowdy men swearing and shouting 😳 we decided to leave after our drink 🍸 and decided to go to the Martin Inn down the road wich was definitely 5 stars ***** let's hope the management see this review and stop this happening.

Left clear instructions for no butter on my nan to receive it with butter! Didn't eat!!! I hate butter on my nan! Can't follow simple instructions, greatly disappointed!!!

Great food as always. Very friendly and helpful staff. Food cooked to your choice of heat with level of spice.

Food is great, good drink selection too, no parking though but parking available in residential streets nearby.

Meal was very nice, always up to scratch. Delivery driver very competent and knocked on door, as requested ,well done .

Lovely food. Reasonable prices. Packaged really well too. Will definitely be ordering again.

Great vegan options and very tasty 😋

Delicious food delivered quickly... Excellent!

Fab food as always and plenty of it. Delivered hot and very tasty.

Emma for food and Chris at the bar amazing service can’t fault it .. food is banging lamb tawa amazing off the hook 🤩deffo recommend

Fab food as always thank you and well done

Lovely food excellent staff just abit dated inside still a good place to eat tasty food 😋 and will always come back

No one speaks English. Just got sat on a table for a long time. No one seemed interested in taking our food order. Absolutely shocking service.

Food was good enjoyable night out 😇🙏🙏🙏

Terrible dining experience - Asked us to move tables - Had to ask for someone to come over - We asked how long, they stated half an hour, took over a hour - Staff seemed confused about their own menu and asked multiple times about what we want - Butter chicken was waterery and did not taste right at all - Sizzler was a kids sized sizzler (do not order) - Ordered a lemonade and only gave half a cup until asking to fill it to the top - Overpriced food overall - Messed up the order/receipt - We simply asked if we could turn on the TV which we could see was on standby but they stated they couldn't cause it's broken - The sofa seating was extremely uncomfortable and way too low to eat on the table

Well be going there has a regular very good

Meal lovely but bit expensive , delivery man very nice knocked on door, which I appreciated, instead of sitting in car and ringing me which some other places do.

Always good food and again top service and good meal 👍

Will order on a Saturday now as the curries seem to be much better and tastier than when I have ordered in the week

The food was well packaged when it arrived and hot. Delicious as usual from this place.

Punjabi chicken was bland and tasteless, I asked for the food to be made hot and spicy, it was mild!!! Asked for the nan to have no butter which it did! Not your usual service, greatly disappointed!

Amazing, clean place, great food, superb service, food delicious

The attentiveness to our table was pretty poor. I had to call the chap over a few times to get the drinks order. Starters came out over an hour, the Jeera wings to me by surprise "lovely" another hour then the mains came out which were mediocre.

Food was decent for decent price as well. Good place to sit and e.g. watch football. Indian food very tasty. Recommend for everyone

Just popped down for a drink… always on point…

Abit pricey on drinks didn't try the food staff seemed friendly my brothers liked the food Edit= tried food, it was OK, the price was shocking, small portion big price and standard food 😳 do not order the samosas 🤦🏽‍♂️

Food was lovely. Hot when arrived, very tasty, large portions. Will definitely be ordering again. Thank you

Tasty food, and they lessen to your instructions to make food mild, 100% as all ways

I am allways in woolpack and it's my second home 🏡 and all staff are very friendly allways smiling good food and allways best beer 🍺

Excellent food,great staff, and lovely service.

Usually order a curry on a Saturday and it is always nice and tasty and spicey, todays curry was nothing like it, it lacked colour, was bland with a bit of spice with chunks of onion in, different chef perhaps? Anyway I was disappointed and did not enjoy, I even found a pea in it!

Went early and place had a few people in, decided to roder food, and owner said no tables only outside avilable. I did smell a rat there. Anyhow elected to eat outside and even when we went into the building to order drinks the bloody place was still empty. I had been going to this place which Dev kept and and it was a shipstones Breewary neary 30 years and it have been under unw management. Come Back Dev all is forgiven. Food was rubbish drinks were terrible. I will not be going back the Price is extoritionate too!

Food was really good and the staff very polite

Tasty,nice an warm, will be ordering again

Onion bhaji very hard little onion. Couldn't eat

Went to the woolpack for my wifes birthday she had a biriyani and i had a mix sizzler both where to die for great portions great value very good staff very polite and friendly and they had a happy hour until 8pm so beer and soft drinks where cheap i e 1 lager and a glass of lemonade £6 10p will be going back.

Firstly when I called them they just pick the call and just didn’t answered properly and kept the phon a side, it’s not too busy and still they are not attending the tables properly, they are not treating us properly and they are treating us by our looks.

I enjoyed it. Was told that this place was awful but that was the old owners. A friend of mine bugged me to go and we went as two couples and loved the food, the atmosphere, mind you, the atmosphere is only as good as you make it and we made it good! The dishes were amazing. I loved fish pakora. The first place where fish does not fall to pieces separate from the batter. It was all merged and so lovely, I was impressed from start t9 finish. Yes, it a bit on the expensive side compared to others but worth it.

Food was brilliant. Can't fault it. Would order it again. I reccomend this place.

First time ordering from here. Very impressed lovely meal, but could have done with bit bigger rice portion. Will def recommend. Well done thank you x

Alway, great service and tasty curries

Great experience. But it can be better in cleaning parts.sofa and table glassware was dirty.

Awful. The worst meal I’ve experienced in a long time. Chicken was very chewy, told the manager Nimisha about the issue and she said “sorry I can’t do anything about it as no other customers have complained”. It was 6pm… how many other customers would have visited before me? Should have known the food wouldn’t be any good based on the place being empty. Awful food, awful customer service. Would not recommend at all. Cutlery was also dirty.
