About us

The Retreat was built on the idea of giving the people of Cheltenham somewhere to eat, drink and dance; where a familiar face would always be on hand to celebrate those great occasions or satisfy your daily lunch needs. Since opening in 1982 we’ve seen a lot of change in Cheltenham which now attracts more people every year for the races and cultural festivals. Welcoming this mix of old and new customers is something we greatly enjoy and helps provide the lively atmosphere we love!.

Dropped in for luch at The Retreat, our first visit in 32 years! Delicious lunch, great service, welcoming and a magical bar. Quieter at lunchtime than the evening. Amazingly like it was so long ago but bigger. Fantastic.

Great pub. Haven't been there for 30 years. Still the same great atmosphere.

We went on a Tuesday lunchtime for the wife’s birthday. Music was just the right background volume and some songs were on my playlists so I was happy. Tables were well occupied but plenty of them so comfortably full. Mixture of age groups and some singles felt happy sitting alone here. Lovely setting, with a French/Spanish type of vibe. Nice feel to the place. Outdoor seating and dog friendly indoors. You can also just sit on a barstool for a drink. I like a restaurant with a bar, like a Spanish tapas place. Food excellent and plentiful. Service quick and friendly, thanks Rebecca and all. Nice choice of beers, we had Japanese. Definitely recommend and booked again for their monthly evening Supper Club in November. Can’t wait!

Love this pub , not necessarily for the food which is standard pub fare , but for the atmosphere and nostalgia. Used to meet friends here before hitting Cheltenham of a Friday evening ...it hasn't changed and I love it

It's a nice place fir a quick drink before dinner. I would have given more stars but it has a small courtyard and people are allowed to smoke there and it was unpleasant for non smokers. It would have been nice to sit outside but could not due to smoking.
