About the restaurant

Nasprías is the name of the land where our family has had its vineyard in Sardinia for almost a century. It is a name that we relate to family and traditions, values which are at the core of our food: pizza al taglio, croissants, cakes and much more. We use real Sardinian ingredients together with the freshest local produce sourced from right here in the Costwolds. We don’t buy pre-made or frozen doughs, we source the best flour and yeast and let our doughs raise for 24-48 hours, just like our families did in the past; the way it should be done.
Nasprías tips its hat to my Sardinian roots and also serves Illy coffee, the best that Italy has to offer made to Illy’s exacting high standards alongside other drinks that you can find in any Italian bar.
We are looking forward to welcoming you with some Sardinian hospitality.

Welcomed into the restaurant which was beautifully decorated for Christmas. A warm greeting from Chris and shown to our table. The food and wine choices are abundant but not overwhelming & there is something to suit every taste. The food itself was exquisite, presented so it was a real feast for the eyes. We opted for the Christmas menu. The dessert of dark chocolate torte was decadent but not heavy, it was like a chocolate cloud. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the whole experience is a real treat. Adrian, Chris and the team are doing an exceptional job and this restaurant is a real hidden gem for Cheltenham. We can’t wait for our next visit

Bourton-on-the-Water

About the restaurant

Theo & Sebastian who are brothers, started Smiths in the middle of a pandemic! We are seriously passionate about patties and are based in Bourton-On-The-water, also known as ‘Venice of the Cotswolds’. Our restaurant sits circa 30 guests making it a small, exclusive place to come and eat. Since opening, we have made it our mission to get our hands on the best possible ingredients. We also use dry aged beef with a great fat content supplied by Aubrey Allen, which marries up with our strong, unique flavour combinations giving you the ultimate bite! We cant forget about or delightful buns, which are handmade daily by a wonderful local baker. All the flour used for our buns is made up of Cotswold flour sourced from local farmers.

We also pride ourselves on having a vibrant cocktail scene. All of our cocktails are bespoke to us and our syrups and flavourings are made in house!

The best burgers in the world!! Seriously everyone has to try the burgers here. The triple B burger is insanely good. We drive from Bristol (1 and a half hours) for these burgers. Bourton on the water is beautiful so it’s always lovely to go there but honestly we go there for Smiths burgers! Seriously delicious. I highly recommend the triple B burgers.
