We really enjoyed our lunch and the sun was shining so we had a superb view! We were quickly served a glass of champagne each, which was an excellent one, not too dry, very smooth. My husband chose the salmon and I ordered the tuna to start. The portions were perfect for us but would perhaps be considered small by others. My Provence rosé was a delight and perfectly chilled and my husband’s Sauvignon blanc was very nice too. The wine choice was limited but well selected! We both went for the steak burger in brioche, which was perfectly cooked but I wished I’d had something lighter (roasted carrot dish sounded interesting) and didn’t finish mine. My appetite is rather small these days and portions are often too large for me. The fries were excellent though. The staff were so lovely, we’d definitely recommend the Nook to anyone and will be going back!

Unable to review really as booked what I thought was an afternoon tea only to be advised when we arrived there weren’t any left. So unable to comment on food or value. Lovely restaurant but poor booking system. Was really disappointed as I had booked for a friends birthday treat.

Our family meal together was enhanced by the quality of our food, the attentive service we received and the general ambiance of our surroundings. In other words a lovely occasion.

Came to the Nook for a date night with my partner. Walking into the downstairs bar area was beautiful and was greeted with a warm welcome from the door staff. Got to the restaurant and service was outstanding, very quick, friendly, welcoming, and helpful! Started with the sourdough which was incredible & the butter was beautiful. For the mains we got recommended the Chicken and it was the best recommendation from the menu we had, we also had the duck too which was equally delicious! We finished with a Cherry Sorbet which I left wanted the whole tub! We definitely got great value food for what we paid. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone in Cheltenham. Thank you to all the staff and chefs that severed us
