About Bradgate Arms

Bradgate Arms is a pub in Leicester, on Cropston, set in a 400-year-old building with old beams that gives the dining area and bar an old-fashioned frame. It is open daily. The bar pours cask ale, guest beers, traditional lagers and ciders, and the kitchen serves the Hawkstones pie alongside steak and scampi on the lunch menu. Sunday brings a roast dinner with beef and Yorkshire pudding. Lunchtime is busy, and tables are filled by both booked and walk-in guests. A regular quiz night runs on Tuesdays, and the pub also hosts charity quiz nights.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers return most for the Sunday roast and pub meals, with one describing excellent beef, a spot-on Yorkshire pudding and tender vegetables. Close behind are the steak, the scampi and a Hawkstones pie, and several say food arrives quickly even when the pub is busy. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and welcoming, and one reviewer says a child's meal was adjusted without fuss. The quiz nights draw praise too, with a charity quiz and an impromptu evening both described as welcoming, and the garden and ordering from the table get a mention. One reviewer says a lunchtime visit felt warm and the beer was excellent, but the server's greeting was just a curt "yes?", which left a feeling of interrupting her. One regular mentions booking a table because lunchtime fills up, while another was seated straight away without a booking. A reviewer who noticed a change of ownership says staff now check that everyone is happy with their food.
