Its well served by fast trains to Sheffield, Derby and is only just over an hour from London! Shame the bus station is right over the other side. Of the city, making those connections trickier! Less than an hour from London from 2019!

Negative review for Leicester train station. I love an East Midlands train station as much as the…read morenext man, but this experience really put a disgusting taint on my overall opinion. Me and my mates were on our way back to Cambridge after what I can only describe as a 'mammoth' day out in Wigan, and we had to change in Leicester to get on our penultimate train. Unfortunately, as we were absolutely legging it around the station in order to assure we made our 15-minute connection, we were confronted. Some bloke said that if we didn't get out of his sight then he would 'tonk us to oblivion' and 'smash the ever-living ****' out of us. We felt quite unsafe and two of my friends had to be restrained on platform 3. We resultantly almost missed our train. However, at the end of the day I have been here twice and the first time was bliss. The facilities are good and match the demand given how many major destinations are available to directly travel to. Decent destination, could be more central but obviously can't be moved because that would be arguably overly industrial.

I worked in the Fosse Park Next for nearly 2 years so I know the place very well. There are about 20 large clothes stores including M&S, Next, River Island and plenty of electrical and home stores as well as a large Asda. Parking is free, but at busy times it can be difficult to find a space. At Christmas and sale times people can be seen abandoning their cars on the approach roads to the park! In all well worth a visit if you dont want the hassle of the city center, with all the shops you will need.

There is also an Asda Petrol station with pay at pump and a carwash. In the main area of Fosse Park there are quite a good range for of shops like Dorothy Perkins, BHS, GAP, Monsoon, Boots, Marks and spencer. The opening hours are good and on Sundays most shops there don't close until 5pm which is gretat There is also quite a large food court with a McDonals, KFC, Pizza Hut, Druckers, sandwich bar etc but it gets really busy and you will struggle to get a table sometimes. The large carpark gets very full up at the weekend so avoid peak times. On the plus side, the car park is free. Cross the road near BHS and you get to the furniture/electrical part of Fosse Park where you will find shops like PC World, Argos, Harveys. You can spend a good day at Fosse Park without heading into Leicester city centre and having the expense of car parking.
