The Best Brunch In Leicester

The Distillery Leicester is a social pub and kitchen that's a laid-back place to unwind throughout the week and on the weekends. The venue blends wooden beams and leather furnishings with a welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for casual meals with your mates. 

Breakfast-wise, you're in for a treat, especially with its avocado and hot honey toast for only £6. Sandwiches are also on the menu with your choice of filling from bacon, egg and cheese together or just sausage or bacon. 

Nestled by the serene River Soar and a stone's throw from De Montfort University, Soar Point is the ultimate hangout for students, locals, and anyone looking for a good time.

With a buzzing yet laid-back vibe, this riverside gem serves up hearty breakfasts, classic pub grub, and vegan-friendly dishes to keep every appetite happy. Start your day right with their breakfast offerings, which include everything from traditional fry-ups to lighter bites like the Boss Benedict with hashbrowns, paired perfectly with a fresh coffee or juice.

Open every day and serving sizzling spreads until midday, O'Neill's brunch is one for the early risers. Located just a short walk from the high street, this warm and welcoming bar is bringing you a range of hearty breakfasts to choose from.

One of which is the stellar Mega Irish Breakfast which features three Irish pork and leek sausages, three rashers of grilled back bacon, fried free-range eggs, hash browns, Heinz® baked beans, a grilled tomato, two flat mushrooms and your choice of toast. Fancy something lighter? There's some creamy porridge for that, topped with strawberry jam or honey. 

Welcome to The Railway Inn, a gem nestled in Glenfield, near Leicester. This traditional village inn invites you to get cosy among its blue checkered furnishings and spongy, carpeted flooring.
