One of our favourite places in Leicester that we visit several times during the February comedy festival. They do a variety of gigs, some 'pay what you want' and the venue part has an authentically gritty feel to it. Nice coffee and cakes. More imagination with proper ciders (not the kids' fruit stuff) would go down well with us.
Since 2021 ownership has changed and it's now run by The Big Difference charity, which also runs the comedy festival. Slight improvement in bottled and canned beers available but I think they've stopped selling cakes. Now renamed, understandably, as The Big Difference.

An essential Leicester High Street establishment! Friendly staff, good for a coffee in the day or a drink in the evening, plus a great live venue too! Do give it a visit, post-lockdown.

Went here for a gig. Was a great music venue but the bar area is basically a corridor with people constantly shuffling around to make way for each other - it's like they don't want you to be able to buy drinks!

Great small venue. Came here to see a band called Crows and immediately liked this place. Nice and tight place to watch a band and very reasonably priced. Surprisingly the drinks weren't as overly expensive as a lot of venues. Had a great night out here and would go see bands here again

Great experience seeing Only The Poets in on stage underneath the restaurant.

Fantastic, intimate music venue. Echobelly were brilliant! Look forward to seeing more live music there. Only criticism, could have a better selection of ale.

Great venue, great bar with great staff, great cocktail bar upstairs and the terrace (outdoor area upstairs) is lovely. What more could you want, one of my favourite bars in Leicester.

Excellent first trip to the Cookie seeing the very funny Andrew Bird. Bar staff very friendly. Nice atmosphere. Good venue.

A really good venue for live music, the band was down stairs, you need to go up to the bar for the drinks which you are allowed to take down to the room.
Would recommend seeing live music here.
