Not a bad pub. Food okayish. Quite big, which helps. Better than The Kings head down the street.

Refurbished with new management a couple of years ago. Any previous reviews now out of date

For some reason I have really started to like this pub. I am local and go into town every week.
In the 70s Yates were very basic (Liverpool had 10 Yates, floorboards, the posh one on Dale Street had lino. One beer tap and 20 rough wines - I kid you not. There were local poems to the lethal Australian white. But enough of my past...)
Cheltenham: Cheap food (2 meals for 6.95 type deals). And very strangely: the staff (the food staff anyway) seem to be always very polite and considerate, consistently, must be a policy.
This is lunchtime - cannot speak at all for the evening!!

The Moon Under Water, Cheltenham
Not a bad pub, however...
I agree with Porkling that the tables at the front having gone is a shame; it was an excellent place to watch the rats try to get through the front door from the stream nearby (no joke, not at all).
The arrogant little manager who refuses to give his name when you want to make a complaint is still there.

The Prince of Wales, Cheltenham
Please ignore any previous comments as pub now under new management and completely refurbished.
Was a basic but friendly pub that I always used when I went into town.
Now under new management. Refurbished. Totally weird. Brown and beige paint, badly applied. Paintwork full of bits and scuddy; I am no DIY man but I would never be satisfied with the decoration. Strange big tables with no seats. Tacky and very very cheap and tacky. Very sad. Every Gold Cup this pub used to be full; next year they will simply walk out.

Staddlestones Bar and Tandoori Restaurant, Woodmancote
Staddlestones have a good reputation for food. But the only time you would drink there is while waiting for your takeaway. Not a pub in the real sense of the word.
