Our waiter really knew the menu. His recommendations were spot-on, especially for the lighter dishes.

I was curious about the desserts here. The sundae with edible glitter caught my eye, and it was a fun choice. The baked cheesecake was nice too, though I wish the portion was a bit larger. Both were quite fresh.

Solid spot for a quick lunch. The chicken tikka masala was ready in under 10 minutes, which is perfect for my break. Good spice level, not too heavy. Portion was decent for the price. Just what you need when you&#39;re in a rush.

Steph and Miles have a solid menu. The vegan options are actually good, not just an afterthought. Tried the roasted cauliflower steak with tahini and pomegranate &ndash; the texture was spot on, not mushy. The flavours worked.

The staff&#39;s kindness was a real plus. Had a minor issue with my flat late one night, and they let me use their phone to sort it. Went above and beyond what you&#39;d expect.

Loved the room, it had such a nice vibe. The bed was super comfy and the little Christmas tree was a really sweet touch. Everything felt fresh and clean when we arrived.

Loved the vibe here! The burger was spot on, juicy and cooked just right. The fries were tasty, but some were a bit under-seasoned while others were fine. Still, a solid spot for a casual bite.

Been coming here for years. The food&#39;s always solid, homely stuff. Portions are big, you won&#39;t leave hungry. Place is a bit tight at the moment with the work going on, but they still manage to serve you right.

The servers were on it. Adam, Alex, Gian Franco&mdash;they knew the menu inside out, got the timing right. Not hovering, just there when you needed something. Made the whole thing smooth.

The lamb shank was the standout. Slow-cooked for hours, it just fell off the bone. The gravy was rich and clung to the mash perfectly. A very satisfying dish.

The staff were so helpful. They took the time to walk us through the menu, explaining the different cuts and sauces. It made choosing a lot easier. Really appreciated that extra bit of care.

The full English was spot on - bacon and sausages cooked just right. Perfect for a lazy weekend catch-up with mates.

Lovely Sunday lunch spot. The roast beef was cooked just right, and the Yorkshire pudding was exactly what I wanted. Proper veg on the side too, which is always a plus. Service was quick and got us in and out.

Liz the landlady is a hoot, really makes you feel at home. She remembered what I liked from last time and had a good laugh with us. That personal touch, you don&#39;t get that everywhere.

The Brie and bacon sandwich was really good. You can ask for changes since they make it fresh.

The new adult bento combo is pretty good. A decent variety of items, all of which were tasty. The salmon was particularly nice. A solid lunch option.

Been coming here for years, and the team always remembers my usual. Last time they whipped up a mango lassi off-menu for my partner, just because she mentioned craving one. That kind of attention keeps me coming back.

The Railway&#39;s a cosy pub, especially with the candles in the evening. Had the Thai green curry. The portion was generous for the price, really filled me up. Good spot for a hearty meal without breaking the bank.

Nice spot for a quiet coffee in the park. The new decor is cosy and has a bit of character, which I like. Found a comfy armchair by the window &ndash; perfect for settling in with a book. The staff were friendly and left me to it. A good, relaxed place.

A decent stay in a central spot. The room was clean and modern, and the receptionist was lovely. Street parking outside was a plus.

Great pub, really liked the vibe. The bar area has a nice feel to it.

The team couldn&rsquo;t have done more to make our evening memorable. it was my husbands birthday and they put us in a little garden room area and all the staff were so attentive and super knowledgable about the menu, ingredients, wine and cocktails. Massive thank you from the Freeman family.

Came here for the fish and chips. The batter was super crispy and stayed that way, even by the end. Fish inside was nice and flaky. No fishy taste at all. Pretty solid.

Been coming here for years. Their stone-baked pizzas are solid, and the burgers on themed nights are a decent size. Tastes fresh, like they make it themselves. It&#39;s just a reliable local spot.

Cortado was spot on, really smooth. The barista was super nice and chatted about the beans. Menu&#39;s huge, wish I&#39;d had time to try the pastries!

Been coming here for years. Their Cowless burger is consistently good - never feels heavy afterwards.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, and the staff were really friendly. The gin selection is great too!

Popped in for a Sunday roast. The beef was cooked just right, really tender. The whole place has this cool, lived-in vibe with all the quirky decor. Staff were lovely, made us feel right at home. A solid spot in Cheltenham.

Bottomless brunch was efficient. Standard menu has solid variety, and Dan kept refills coming promptly. Good option for a central location. Upgrades available if you want them.
