The Retreat — Restaurant in Cheltenham

We sat down in the corner of the pub with our drinks planning on getting food and probably staying there for a while. The table was not reserved in any way, we were sat there for over 30 minutes having a nice quiet drink until the rudest, scruffiest man with long greasy hair and moustache came over and told us to 'get up, I need the table'. Didn't even bother to explain why, or even apologise then just stood there saying 'get up'. I genuinely didn't even realise he worked there.. I thought he was some random man asking us to get up. The pub was full with no other tables available. We were clearly an easy target being one of the youngest (29 and 31). The pub was full of over 50s. Not our fault you couldn't organise enough chairs and tables for a larger group. Clearly an error on your behalf.

Safe to say we will never step foot in this...

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...

The staff here are awesome, everybody has a great time and there's always a really enjoyable atmosphere. They do stuff like beer pong nights and a weekly quiz on a Wednesday which is really fun. It can get really busy which does mean service at the bar can be a bit slow but that's okay.

Go here for drinks with friends in the winter because there's a really cost atmosphere inside. In the summer sit out the back and enjoy...
