Forge InnSituated in the centre of the pretty village of Glenfield, just outside Leicester City Centre, you will find The Forge Inn.  Run by Ssoosh Inns Ltd this is a traditional village pub which specialises in cask ales, wine and great pub food at fantastic prices.  The pub itself is quite old, originally believed to be the village blacksmiths and previously going under the name of The Griffin.  We have a modern feel although retain a traditional, homely atmosphere with original features.  You can dine throughout the pub, either in our dining area or more contemporary bar.  We have a total number of 120 covers so you will always find a table quickly.  We offer an extensive selection of dishes from classics such as sausage and mash to pub favourites including a hearty beef lasagne.  Grills and steaks are our speciality!  We are in close proximity to Bradgate County Park and very near to Leicester's premier new shopping centre ‘High Cross’.  Why not join Sam and the friendly team soon.
