Bobby's Restaurant

You'll find this long-standing Gujarati spot right in the heart of Belgrave Road's Golden Mile, where it's been feeding Leicester families for decades. The dining room feels properly lived-in rather than polished, with Formica tables and fluorescent lighting that screams authenticity over Instagram appeal. The menu reads like a love letter to Gujarat's greatest hits – think massive thalis loaded with dal, sabzi, and fresh rotli, plus all the street food classics like dhokla, bhel puri, and pau bhaji. The portions are generous enough to defeat most appetites, and at these prices, you'd be daft to complain. Yes, service can be brusque and the décor won't win any awards, but when the food hits this hard and costs this little, you learn to overlook the rough edges.
