Our Story

A family kitchen, opened to all

Thirty years of cooking, one mother's recipes, an entire city at our table.

Inside Paddy's

From our mother's stove to Leicester's heart

Paddy's Marten Inn has a long heritage. The restaurant opened in 1996, but the cooking stretches back generations — recipes our mother first prepared at home, refined by hand and time.

As we grew, our renowned chef joined the kitchen to help create new menus that guarantee quality and consistency in every dish. Today our chef Amita Mashru leads a brigade that has been with us for over seven years.

Every plate is cooked to order. Curries arrive in traditional challis — for an experience that's authentic, generous and proudly Leicester.
