Royal Leicesters is a community pub and Indian restaurant on Lockerbie Walk in Rushey Mead. Once centred primarily on traditional pub life, it now places family dining and Indian food at the heart of the business while retaining a bar, live music and a welcoming neighbourhood atmosphere.
The kitchen serves familiar curries such as madras and jalfrezi alongside dishes shaped by its own chefs. Carefully built sauces provide different levels of heat and richness, and vegetable dishes, rice and breads make it easy for a table to share several complementary flavours.
Tandoori chicken, kebabs, lamb chops and mixed grills bring smoky char to the menu, while fish tawa and other specialities offer alternatives to standard curry house combinations. Poppadoms and pickles give groups a simple opening before the larger plates arrive.
Draught beer and other pub drinks remain available, so diners can combine a pint with dinner or stay for an evening of music and conversation. The shift toward food has made Royal Leicesters particularly suited to families and groups looking for a relaxed Indian meal without losing the character of a local pub.
