    If you've just arrived here and it's your first time in Leicester, get the free Greater Leicester bus map from the Arriva kiosk inside the station. It includes a pretty detailed map of the centre.

    Don't forget to be prepared to go to your bus 10 minutes earlier because on the time table they only tell you the bay not the number of the stop

    Station cafe is fine if you've got to wait. They've got the city v forest game on too. Come on Leicester!

    Could be warmer inside. Good for all national express services with service counter on site, and regional buses.

    If you're due to travel on #NX310 to #Bradford be aware that coach may be a #Stotts one rather than a @nationalexpress.

    Catch the skylink for East Midlands Airport, wonderfully simple travel, luggage rack and reasonable prices :)

    They've changed the stands around. It's weird.

    Check the Longstop pub up the road towards the Clocktower if you want a friendly pint!

    Freaky blue lights in the loos. Come here for the thrill when you need a wee.... Note, don't if you can make an alternative

    The cafe seems cheap, clean and friendly. Can't argue with 90p for a cup of tea...

    The man in the shop outside is usually miserable, but sometimes gives too much change, sweet!

    The 2 starts doing one bus an hour from 18:05. Don't think there's one at half past the hour!

    Useful local bus station with lockers and also a National Express coach bit for longer trips.

    National Express coaches are always on this bus station! Nothing to do except waiting or grabbing a coffee/ tea from the awful cantina nearby! Avoid avoid avoid!

    Be careful catching the 8.30am bus to wigston. It's usually late!

    For national express journeys get here at least 10mins before departure!

    Only pee here in dire emergency. Only three urinals, so really two. Soggy floor and rubbish taps.

    Café is overpriced. If hungry or thirsty go to small kiosk just outside.

    Bus #2 leaves from Bay #3. Just to confuse things.
