Had a delicious Sunday lunch here this weekend, this was the best yet. There was a good menu choice of roasts, fish and vegetarian option. The meals were presented well and accompanied by a medley of fresh vegetables. I think the desserts whilst there is a good choice, are a little expensive. The waiting staff were more attentive than the first time we visited. My only observation is that there does not seem to be a 'system' of who is looking after which tables, and following the process through. This has resulted on a previous occasion of poor service, but we decided to give The Gloucester Old Spot another go, and we are glad we did.
Always have a brill meal here - delicious food friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. My favourite pub in Cheltenham! Xx
Lovely setting, plenty of space, including car parking, even when busy and sufficient staff to provide quick and friendly service. Food was good, chips excellent.
A few more menu options derived from Gloucester Old Spot pork maybe?
Recommended, will go again.
Fantastic place to stay for a nights stopover in the van. Staff were amazing. Beautiful pub and scenery and the food was excellent. Will definitely stay again.
Overnight stop in campervan. Welcoming staff. Great outdoor seating and lovely beers/cider.
Didn't have anything to eat but nice menu and food looked great.
Lovely clean toilets.
I absolutely love the staff and atmosphere here and my meat eating external family all LOVE the menu so we keep coming back when they visit.
I personally hope they expand their vegetarian menu a bit I don't want a nutroast or souffle everywhere I go.
Also, why isn't there a children's menu at all anymore? We would definitely frequent more often if you offered a simple pasta or some chips or veggies and nuggets as an easy option for families. It does feel a tad intentional.
My children (3 and 1) loved their lunch but it would have been nice to eat mine hot..rather than have to cut up a roast for two young toddlers 😅
We had a delicious Sunday Roast just a 10-minute drive from the town centre. We would love to go back and try it again. We recommend booking in advance through their online booking system.
Delicious meal at the Old Spot. I had the vegetarian tart as a starter and the Thai green curry as a main, this was vegetarian and gluten-free and absolutely lovely.
We also add the lemon tart in desert which I found a bit too sweet to my taste.
Great place to stop by for a drink and a meal.
Incredible food and such nice staff!! The food is so very different to anywhere else, the flavours are interestingly mixed, it's not your standard restaurant/pub food. Some of the flavours were surprising but really good, it's definitely a restaurant for a special occasion. Great presentation. The staff are all so very caring, happy to have a chat, make recommendations, very polite and friendly. Good selection on drinks, including quite a good selection of 0% alcohol drinks. Everything is local as well. Prices are good for such a special experience. I can't believe such a restaurant exists locally, you could imagine the chefs working in London in a really posh places, it is that special here. I'll definitely be coming back for more.
This was fairly close off the M5 so convenient but I would have travelled much further out of my way for the experience. Staff friendly and helpful from the moment i walked in. Lots of car parking for campers motorhomes and cars. To say dog friendly is understated my woofer was in her element. Oh and the food was spot on too !
Just had the most delicious Sunday lunch here. Lamb cooked to perfection with a lovely generous portion of Veg, lamb, Yorkshire and gravy. Beef also extremely good, according to my very fussy partner. The GF Chocolate brownie with Raspberry sorbet, and chocolate sauce was an indulgent delight, and the whole thing was topped off by the Genuinely great service by the most charming hostess. Really super. Thank you so much. I'm local so will be back for more. :)
Friendly staff and a roaring fire to make you feel cosy. Ample parking which is always a bonus. Pleased to say it’s a child friendly establishment, a high chair was offered without even having to ask and there is a children’s menu. The only downside was I felt one of the staff members wasn’t listening and ignored two easy requests. The food was great quality, locally sourced (reinforced by a poster at the front door telling you where they acquire each food and drink item). My husband and I both had hot rolls, one steak and one pork. The bread was lovely, the meat was good and the chip’s were delicious .. but it was crying out for some gravy.
