You might want to go for a couple of
bevvies on the way back into town, so
why not make a stop at the trendy O bar
on Braunstone Gate, or relax in the sun
at The Quay at Bede Island Park - there's
always a game of football or frisbee to
join in with!
Leicester has vibrant night life
If you're up for a bit of a lads night
out, at a pub with a truly awesome atmosphere,
then my particular favourite has got to
be The Hat and Beaver in Highcross Street.
It's got a real buzz about it. The loud
chatter combined with the number of pipes
you see, and old fashioned ale, make you
feel like you're living in Dickens times.
On a weekend, Revolution Bar is a novelty
way to 'kick start' the night ahead. Follow
their dress code and you'll find it has
an unrivalled selection of vodkas from
different countries, which means there
are copious amounts of different flavours.
Or how about you make a 'combo' - a larger,
some champagne and Jack Daniels together!
Or you could try your luck with the Lizard
Lounge which has two chill-out bars.
Street Life is a gay bar and has an excellent
atmosphere. For the moshers out there,
there's The Shed with local bands playing
during the day and the occasional chance
to watch DVDs.
The Donkey on Welford Rd, only 15 minutes
walk away from Vicky Park, has the most
comfortable sofas to aid the enjoyment
of a pint. Then, you've got the Swan &
Rushes. Admittedly the average age in
that place is 65+, but the strength of
the beers could tranquilize a hippo! The
authentic glasses you get are a sight
to behold. Ask for a bottle of Kwak and
see for yourself...
