About This Pub
Ah, Walkabout in Leicester – it's one of those spots that really hits the mark if you're after a proper pub experience with a focus on live sports. I've got to say, the place does wonders with its massive HD screens everywhere, making it dead easy to soak up all the excitement from footy, rugby, or even Formula 1 without craning your neck. The deals on bottomless brunch and wings are an absolute steal, and from what I've heard from others, the food hits the spot nicely, especially when paired with a refreshing pint. The staff seem like a friendly bunch too, always on hand to keep things flowing smoothly, which makes for a welcoming vibe whether you're popping in for a quick watch or a full-blown night out. But, let's be honest, it's not all smooth sailing – there have been a few tales of booking woes that could put a dampener on your plans, and if the menus aren't quite up to scratch, you might end up with something that's not exactly as promised. Still, overall, it's a solid choice for us lot who fancy a bit of sport and socialising, as long as you go in with your eyes open and maybe confirm those details beforehand. You'd probably have a great time, all things considered!
Pros and Cons

Lively atmosphere that's spot on for groups, events, or just kicking back with a cold pint and some good vibes.
Cons
-
Occasional booking mix-ups can leave you out in the cold, which is a bit of a letdown when you've got your heart set on a table.

Menus aren't always bang up to date, so what you order might not quite match the description, leading to a few surprises.
-
It can get pretty packed during big games, which might mean service slows down a tad when things are buzzing.

We reserved a table for champions league final, got confirmation email and submission emails, went there with friends, didn't have us booked and asked us to leave, politely asked if possible to talk to someone to see if our table is somewhere that we cannot find it, the security came and asked us to leave. I understand it was a busy day, I understand there might be an error in the system, all we needed was a proper answer from someone. Unbelievable. Will never go there again.
This is a sports bar with TV's showing various sports at the same time.
We were not there for that however!
My party of 9 enjoyed the bottomless brunch on s Saturday afternoon when leicester were playing rugby. There was a steady stream of customers but the bar staff were very attentive to our party. The bottomless brunch lasts for 90 minutes when the first drinks are put on the table. I think we more than got our monies worth.
The food served was devoured easily. I have to say the chicken wing dish was a generous portion and super delicious.
I can easily recommend this place. We did leave to a place with music after 2 hours, but that is a different review!
Big table of us spent a couple of hours on a Saturday lunchtime enjoying the Walkabout Bottomless Brunch and it's was brilliant value. It was quite quiet in there but that meant the service was attentive and fast! We always had a drink and the food was really good. Big shout out to our waitress, Eva - she was super fun, very welcoming and had a big smile on her face despite dealing with 13 increasingly inebriated women! Thoroughly recommended for a fun brunch where you can enjoy yourself!
Group of us girls had the bottomless brunch and our server Eva was wonderful. She explained how the service all worked and made sure we kept well topped up throughout our visit. She was great!
The company itself would help their staff by updating the menus as some of the meals were not as described on the menu which caused disappointment and questions for Eva and her colleagues. Please update the menus so that the meals come as described on the actual menus.
Thanks Eva 🥰
Everytime I want to watch a football match in public Walkabout is my first choice.
I love the atmosphere.
They have so many screens all around the pub which makes it suitable for you to seat everywhere you feel better.
I like their BBQ wings.
