We were on our way to the hotel this past weekend, 28/02/2026, when we unexpectedly received a…read morephone call that my travel partner's father had a stroke back in the U.S. The situation was dire, and we needed to return to London to secure flights home. We emailed while we were en route back to London, and we also followed up with a phone call when we arrived. The person working the front desk said they had not received an email and we asked if we needed to follow up with a second email reiterating that we would not be able to use our reservation and why. We were assured that no second email would be needed, and that Monday the manager would assess the situation and let us know if they could do anything to help accommodate our situation. On Monday, we received a communication via email that they would still charge us for the room. We called to follow up to see if could be some type of amicable solution could be achieved and spoke with Sarah, the manager. She repeatedly stated that her terms and conditions needed to be abided by. She was rather short and continuously interrupted instead of listening. It appears that taking money for a room that isn't used, no matter the circumstances, is more important to this establishment than customer service or compassion. There are other places to stay in the area that offer much better customer service. This was the worst experience that we had in England and every other facility where we stayed, up to this point, had been lovely and gracious. It was a shock to see how coldhearted and unfeeling they approached this situation. This experience further compounded something that was frightening and harrowing and unexpected.

My friend chose fish and chips. The fish looked fab but there weren't that many chips -though she was happy with her choice. Loads of seating available inside and a few tables outside. I would be happy to go back.

Was in town last year for work, had my first Guinness (I know not Ireland but a step up from Katie Blooms in San Jose, CA where I learned to drink Guinness in 1992) and have to say it was delicious.

This review is purely as a pub (never eaten in the restaurant upstairs)…read more If you're not from Cheltenham, this lovely pub is in the nicer area of Montpelier. It's a short walk out of town, but certainly worth it, as you'll walk through a great beer garden and past other lovely pubs, bars, restaurants and shops. It's also tucked down a little street that you might miss, so make sure you've got your google maps at hand. I really do think they're got everything right here. Inside are little rooms and snugs that you could make your own with group of friends, and the staff are always really friendly. It does get quite busy on a Saturday night, but they put lots of staff behind the bar meaning your wait isn't too long. Local beers are always changing on tap, and they have a great selection of ciders too. Every year the beehive have a cider and beer festival where they make use of their gorgeous garden out the back of the pub. Using hay bales as a bar, they have extra bars in the garden and it really is worth visiting!

Delicious dinner (tasting menu) and frankly the best I have had in Cheltenham…read more The tasting menu cost £60, with an added £38 per person for wine pairings. This is what me and my hubs had. The dinner started with a bread course - 3 types of bread. Butter was good, just the right amount of saltiness. Also served with taramasalata, which tasted like a cross between roe and smoked salmon. The sourdough was my fave of the breads. Moving on to the amuse bouche - a really large serving! This was trout sashimi and was super delicious. I think it also had beets and another vegetable served with it. The next 2 courses were also seafood - halibut and lobster. The halibut had this really good cucumber sorbet served with it - maybe just a tad to much for the serving, but it was tasty either way. The lobster - I forgot to take a picture it was so good! The final main course was lamb. Normally, I don't really like lamb all that much, but I really liked this dish. The lamb wasn't too gamey in either the steak style or brisket style lamb. There was also sweetbreads served on the side which was perfectly fried. On to the desserts - there was a cheesecake, a chocolate dish, and petit fours to finish. These were all good, but I honestly would have preferred one more savory dish and one less sweet one. Wine pairings were on point for all the dishes. Standout for me was the British wine that was served with the trout I think? The pours were all very generous as well. Overall, great service, great food, great little restaurant. Highly recommended.

It all tasted so nice, we had the sea bass and chicken and for dessert chocolate mousse with ice cream.

Overall this was a really nice surprise and a restaurant with some amazing food.
