It would have been a more enjoyable experience if the postcode given was correct!!! Instead it took us round and round Meridian Way. Please correct it.

I visited as part of a pre-booked group. I’m not sure if you can just turn up. We had an interesting guided tour and learnt about the history of the gas-works before the days of “North Sea gas” There are some quirky exhibits including a gas hair dryer and a gas radio, I kid you not!

A Hidden Gem, full of memorabilia from the oldest cooker from 1890s, a 1920s kitchen and some more modern appliances. A piece of real history soon to be pushed to the back of our memories as fossil fuel become a thing of the past. Dog Friendly too.

A hidden" gem of Leicester. It's been there for nearly 50 years but never heard of it until last week. Very small-scale but quite fascinating. Recognized a lot of appliances remembered from my youth (see photo). Pluses were

Very interesting and familiar. Shame there is only the one in the country. Ideally more room needed and info next to exhibits or audio option through iphone and own earphones? Chuck a few grand at it to set this up and definitely 5 star.Of course a nice brew as you look around would help.

We visited the National Gas Museum with a group and thoroughly enjoyed the visit. Staff made us feel very welcome and gave a good introductory talk about the history of the building. Our group loved exploring the range of quirky displays, which sparked plenty of conversations - I remember...". Staff were very accommodating of our group visit from our initial enquiries through to helping us set up on the day. We brought our own refreshments and used the museum as a venue for our volunteer social event and it worked very well. Thank you
