Booked a table for a family birthday. Booking was easy and no fuss. Ordering food and drinks was no issue. Asked for permission to light candles for cake and again there was no issue. Fab service from start to finish

The tables in the venue are well spaced out giving a nice specious feel to the place. The bar staff although busy they were very friendly and attentive and took all the time needed to deal with my ordering and did not give the feeling of being rushed. Our food order arrived to the table in good time and was nice and hot and tasted great. It was a shame the options to serve different types of coffee was limited due to lack of ingredients for the coffee machine. Overall we had a very pleasant evening.

Originally went to the Severn Springs on the outskirts of Cheltenham but it was closed so on the way home, we passed this Marstons pub and decided to try it out. Initial reactions was that it was pretty empty and we had a choice where to sit. Choosing a window corner for a view. We decided on starters and main and went to the bar to order. Mozzarella and Croxton Manor cheddar bites and chicken wings (I opted for the devil relish) as a starter, and the Surf & Turf (ordered medium) with an additional dripping & Merlot sauce and Fish and Chips for main. Ordering drinks, my friend wanted a latte but was told the machine had been broken since Christmas Eve and the only coffee was an espresso or Americano. The cheese bites were supposed to come with rocket and cheeky devil relish with a sprinkling of chives but after almost an 45 minute wait (in an almost empty restaurant) we were given an enamel dish with 3 small cheese disks and nothing with it. The chicken wings came the same way with a pot of relish dumped on top. This is what presentation is? Deciding that we were too hungry to complain, decided to shut up and eat. The food was tasty enough which was a positive factor and hot. Once finished, we waited for our dishes to be taken and our main delivered. After waiting long enough I got up and took the empty dishes to the bar myself while grabbing more drinks. The server looked shocked and quickly uttered that they were about to come over. In the meantime there was a table behind a partition wall who had a loud speaker phone conversation. They obviously decided that the whole restaurant needed to hear both sides of the conversation. Not the restaurants fault but added to the mounting tickle of frustration that was building. Waited another 20 mins and the fish was served. It looked like a great piece of fish that had obviously been hand battered just before frying. The mushy peas though was like a dollop of afterthought being the tiniest amount. Normally dishes would be served at the same time so was a little surprised when the sever said they were just waiting for my peppercorn sauce to be ready to bring the steak out, “I didn’t order peppercorn sauce” I said. “Oh BBQ?” was the reply “um no!” Was mine. “Bourbon?” Getting rather frustrated the answer again was No. “I ordered the dripping and Merlot”. The servers eyes widened and she turned and walked quickly away. The surf and turf turned up about 5 mins later. Initially looking ok, I thought the steak was quite small even for an 8oz and looked very dry. I cut through the centre and it was as medium as the Sahara. I tried to eat a bite but it was so dry and chewy that my friend said I shouldn’t accept it. (I’m not one to complain so was feeling decidedly awkward at this point) but having already waited 90 mins from order, I wanted to at least enjoy what I was given so I took the plate to the bar and showed them. To their merit, they immediately apologised and took my plate to make another. The plate was back pretty quickly with a lovely cooked steak, perfectly medium. Sadly though my friend had almost finished their plate and my sauce was cold. Their tartar sauce was incredibly tasty though and definitely home made. Once food was finished, we were initially going to have dessert but after already been there for almost 2 hours, we decided to not see how long dessert took. We both needed to use the bathroom and both the ladies and gents were pretty under standard. The men’s (I was told) was like it hadn’t been cleaned for weeks with sticky floors and stained toilet bowls, while the ladies was clean to look at, also had sticky floors. Our bill came to £56 which we paid and left. Safely to say, I don’t think we will be returning. It’s a Marstons pub, nobody is expecting Michelin meals, but considering there was only a smattering of other diners, it was slow and generally underwhelming even for a restaurant of this calibre.

I walked into the restaurant last night without a reservation and was greeted by a very friendly staff and got a table with no problems. I had the classic chicken burger with fries and a red wine. They had great menu options. It was hard to choose just one. The food was great. The service was friendly and great. I would come back again and recommend this location to anyone. Especially guests staying at the doubletree right next door.

We were a group of 33 and had a Christmas celebration at lunchtime. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and the staff were very obliging. The portions were generous and beautifully presented. Everyone was very happy with the meal and the ambience. It was great to have Christmas crackers that were plastic free. Well done.
