Ground Up Coffee

We have been visiting since the early 2000s, never had a bad time in this boozer. Scream days were great during student days. Then during Braunstone gate heyday we'd always still come to the point. Watched Leicester city win the prem from here when couldn't go to games That Hazard goal and the place erupting. Great bar, goos staff, food, drinks, prices - highly recommended. Still don't get why it is the only riverside bar we have in the city. But it does its job so well that it makes up for the lack of others. Great to see it still busy with young students, now we're in our 40s and only get out once in a while for beers.

Soar Point is one of the most popular sports bars in the city. Its in a really good location, right by the canal. I've frequented this bar a lot over the years to hang out with friends and watch football. The inside decor is really nice and there's lots of comfortable seating areas to chill in. The outside decking area is a great spot during the warmer months as well. Food and drinks are really expensive though.

Visited from London and Essex, Sicily and Matt were very accommodating. We came for my friends graduation drinks. We booked bottomless brunch for £50. Well all I can say is we definitely got our monies worth. Drinks and food were perfect, portion sizes were more than expected. When I’m Leicester again we’ll definitely be back

One of my favourite places in Leicester to watch sports and just generally hang out in the evening. Great atmosphere and vibe, while prices are also very reasonable being right in the middle of De Montfort University campuses. Staff are always friendly, serve food throughout the day with pretty good veggie and vegan options.
