Dover Castle Leicester

One of the few gay bars in Leicester. Went in with friends for Bingo on Sunday night. Very cozy and entertaining. I love Fanny. She is hilarious. A pint and a 3 piece bingo card for a fiver. It's my new guilty pleasure.

Absolutely amazing. I love this place. The environment is welcoming and friendly. Staff are polite and cheerful. The entertainment is top class, from DJs to live performances. You will always leave with a smile on your face and a want to return.

Fantastic gay bar/pub! The kind you don't see many of these days as many are closing down. Unashamedly shows off the pride flag inside and outside and has free gay community magazines to read inside as well. Relatively inexpensive alcoholic drinks available as well as food (but we didn't have time to eat here when we visited Leicester so couldn't comment either positively or negatively on what the food is like unfortunately). There's also entertainment in the form of a pool table, televisions and staged performances. When we went there, there was a session of drag queen bingo in full swing with a hilariously filthy-mouthed drag queen bingo caller. I wish I could remember her name she was brilliant. Seemed very popular with locals and had a very relaxing atmosphere. Wish I had a gay bar/pub like the Dover Castle local to where I live so if you are local to Leicester give it all the support you can and it deserves. Not sure what the night life is like here as we visited during the day but imagine it's just as good if not better.

First time visit sat night, didnt know you was there came with our group what a experience loved every minute the atmosphere was fantastic staff super friendly drinks good price the singer fabulous🌟🌟

The atmosphere was completely flat — no vibe, just awkward and stares. To make matters worse, one of our friends was a bit too drunk, and while we were responsibly escorting him out, a bald staff member shouted at us and bizarrely insisted on keeping him inside the venue. His behaviour felt intimidating and, frankly, predatory. We were just trying to prevent a bigger mess and get our friend home safely. AVOID!
