The Parcel Yard, Leicester

Refurbished by the Steamin' Billy company, the former Time Bar in the old parcels area of the station has a large downstairs beer hall sort of room, with a big bar on one side, a row of tables arranged along the other and a back area with more of a restaurant/wine bar feel. Outside is a further large seating area while upstairs at straight level is a small and cosier lounge. Draught beers from the Grainstore brewery in Oakham - sadly only time for a quick pint but seemed nice enough.

Well worth dropping in if you're catching a train or as meeting someone. Good atmosphere for what is essentially a cocktail bar that serves beer
