Great neighborhood pub, great ales & hard ciders and a beautiful inviting beer garden! Jenny & Lee were so kind and friendly to 2 American tourists who happened upon their pub while walking the streets of Leicester! We hated to leave our new British friends even though it was long after closing time! Wish we could stop in often for a pint and a great time!
First time I'd been in for a couple of years, nice decking area and a top pint of porter for just £3
Great little traditional craft ale pub !! Good beer , food and friendly staff !! :-) :-)! !
Great little pub in the middle of leicester ideal to escape to when wife's and partners go shopping
Really lovely old type of local. Beer variety always changing. Well worth a visit

Lovely bar staff. Very friendly and accommodating
Awsome Real ale pub. if your in Leicester check it out.
Very cosy pub with a good selection of real ales. Sometimes a fire is burning and they have games and darts. They do not really have food, but you can get a nice cheese cob with a big slice of onion on it.
Ive become the Salmons newest 'regular' drinker. Without doubt the best pub in Leicester City area. West Country ales seldomn seen outside of Birmingham area, recommend the Fireside ale its a really great tasty pint of real ale. The cobs are also excellent. Throw in live sport without the yob factor sports bar, the easy but vibrant atmosphere is welcoming.
Absolutely great if you are a regular, but it has it's quiet times and it's busy times when the matches are on. But great staff and they are trying their best to really welcome new people in. So give it a go because the ales are really good so if you are a real ale drinkers this is a must!! And the cobs are amazing too!
After many years, a revisit to this hidden watering hole confirms that it is still one of the best pubs in the city centre. It's about 5-10 minutes walk away from the main shopping areas, but well worth the effort to seek out for the log fire, calm atmosphere and decent real ales.
A great pub all newly decorated. It's a shame the barmaid didn't know what a bitter lemon drink was!!!
Otherwise my partner loved the beer.
A great pub
Excellent small Black Country Ales pub. The usual good, wide range of well kept real ales. Friendly staff. A ten minute walk from city centre. Well worth a visit!
Friendly locals, extensive variety of ales, beautiful beer garden and plenty of decent screens to watch the game. By all accounts, The Salmon is what most pubs, anywhere in the U.K, should aspire to be. And I can see how it got there. The pub’s landlord, Alex, is incredibly sharp and witty person, he has a great bit of patter with the patrons and has an in depth knowledge on footy or cricket; in addition to that, it’s clear to see that he (and all the staff) are extremely hardworking people (and they make a mean hot pork bap n’all). We had a grand time. I’ll certainly be back, thank you very much for the warm hospitality and cheers to The Salmon!
First time visit today, just a quick pint, have to say what a little gem, service, beers ( 13 real ales ) atmosphere. Log fire, will definitely be back for a proper drink, made to feel very welcome. Why have we not found this before, lovely clean cosy pub.
Absolutely great pud. Thanks to all involved everything down to the dart board and crusty cobs. Excellent.
Food is basically cobs and snacks. Note, they don't serve meals. Ale selection is always excellent, and there's always at least one dark ale/stout/porter, which is my personal preference. Also included are big name favourites, lager, cider etc. Location is nicely tucked away, but it's a easy 5 minute walk from the clock tower. Staff are pleasant, atmosphere is 'old school English pub'. There's sometimes music but it's never overbearing. It's probably my favourite Leicester pub.
Great boozer. Friendly staff and drinkers. A must to visit. The range of real ales is excellent.
This was my first visit to this pub and I'll definitely be coming back. A cosy homely feeling to the bar, great selection of ales and super friendly staff.
Great pub, great atmosphere, well worth a visit, especially as part of a pub crawl.
Fantastic pint of real ale great atmosphere and very clean
Lovely pub nice and clean good beer darts
First came across this gem of a pub after we played a gig there, but made sure I returned a few days later as I'd enjoyed it so much. Cracking beer, friendly atmosphere and a lovely team behind the bar. Proper pub!
Nice refurbished. Will be in again. Just had beer so can't comment on food.
Great selection of beers Nice cosy fire in the corner. I tried The pig on the wall mild a very satisfying pint at a great price.
An unspoilt, comfortable and welcoming pub. Friendly staff and a good range of Black Country real ales. Good, cheap cobs and other snacks. This place deserves to be supported, there are far too few of this type of pub left. It's a real gem, if you're in the area you should do yourself a favour, call in and take a few minutes to unwind and appreciate the quiet.
