Any decent craft beer pubs?
Blue Boar - large micro pub, beer always spot on - no Draught lager
The Criterion - great beer
Broood - good selection
Brew Dog - good selection, younger clientele
Marquis of Wellington - good selection
Lansdowne - good selection
Ale Wagon - divides people to love it or hate it
Salmon - used to be the best ale boozer in Leicester
The Hind and the Barley Mow are not renowned for their ale - even though the Barley Mow is an Everards brewery pub
Mmmm feel really thirsty now

Is the Loaded Dog any good? Otherwise I was just thinking of going to the cathedral with a tin cos life is for living
Loaded Dog is good for watching live sport - good range of lagers and a few ales.
When sport not on it is a bit of a student pub, but they're all on their hols right now.
New Walk is the preferred alfresco tinnie area.

Is the art gallery worth seeing? Ahead of the cathedral?
Blackadder
Brighton Bhuna Boy
The Wookiee
Back From The Dead
The New Walk museum is not huge, but it's got some great German expressionism paintings, the Picasso ceramics are worth seeing and the exhibition of A Prince's Tour of India has some scary daggers - links to Brighton, Prince Albert, Pavilion
Arriving in Leicester this evening. Recommendations for (centrally located) South Indian restaurants anyone? Then Parkrun in Victoria Park tomorrow morning (good nearby brunch recommendations, anyone?) followed by relaxing morning/early afternoon pre-match.

There's hardly anywhere that I think twice to visit.
You'd have to really have to have a terrible sense of direction if you managed to wander to the wrong estate pub - even I don't collect pubs that are that local.
I've never managed to walk in to the Market Tavern, my feet make me walk in a different direction - it's a bit too salt of the earth for me.
I try to never go in to any of the 3 Wetherspoons pubs - Last Plantagenet; Corn Exchange; Highcross - just no atmosphere and punters are so miserable.
Some of the Irish pubs have a little bit too much atmosphere IMO - Royal Standard; Fountain; Hansom Cab
The Lost Bar is worth avoiding
Pubs nearer the ground get stupidly busy

For everyone that is going - enjoy. I've done a stadium tour of the King Power and it's a fine stadium and generates an atmosphere second to none in the EPL.

10.30 Preston Park. Lightweight!

11.29 from St Panc (First class as it was cheaper than Std Class), equally lightweight
Simples - Kayal on Granby Street - any restaurant with a Brighton players' name by has to be a winner - seriously, it's such a good Keralan restaurant that it stops me exploring - you get heat with flavour rather than a sledgehammer.
Brunch, Delilah; Premier Inn; Knight and Garter; Cosy Club; Curveside - 'poons are not the best in Lestah.

Thanks for this advice. The Kayal came good - this has to be an omen
