DAVE'S LEICESTER COMEDY FESTIVAL!!!

THE CRITERION IS PROUD TO PRESENT A WIDE VARIETY OF COMEDIANS OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS FROM 4TH - 19TH FEBRUARY 2012. (tickets not sold at the pub)

PLEASE CHECK THE COMEDY FESTIVAL TIMETABLE FOR DATES AND TIMES OF ACTS PERFORMING.

TRY OUR 'CHILLI CHALLENGE' - BUY 4 PINTS AND GET A 12" MARGHERITA PIZZA FOR FREE, BUT BEWARE, ONE SLICE HAS CHILLIS HIDDEN IN THE STUFFED CRUST!

Strictly over 18's only, Pizza will not be served during performances or in gig room. Book tickets and tables early to avoid disappointment.

Slake - If I had to check every beer, every day to ensure it wasn't on the turn I'd be drunk before we opened. Sometimes one has to gamble with some new breweries to cater for the tickers otherwise we'd sell nothing BUT Oakham ales. It's nice to give the micro-breweries some support but problem beers are not repeated. If you do have a problem with a pint we will always check the ale and exchange it and unfortunately I will be presenting less beers for festivals in future as people don't drink a wide variety and they deteriorate before they are sold.

You can buy 568ml of vinegar for about £1.50 in a supermarket. A pint of vinegar here costs about £2.80. I'd rather drink ale where it is fresh. The pizzas and staff are still some of the best in the city.
