    Wonderful, London quality food. A really innovative blend of different cuisines presented in an exquisite way. We went for lunch on a Saturday, and the early bird menu presents excellent value for high quality dishes at very affordable prices. We went for a birthday celebration and my guests were equally thrilled with the experience.

    Awful smell of damp on entering restaurant, dreary and old fashioned decor. In need of decorating, wires sticking out at floor level, bathrooms in need of updating. Asked for a coke and a glass of wine, wine arrived, coke did not! Waiter was on his phone when we asked for coke about 5 mins later!!! He had forgotten,only five other guests at this point. Ordered food, did not arrive for 45minutes after we complained. The meal was ok but certainly not worth the money! It was dry and appeared to have been other heat lamp for a while.We then asked for the highlighted speciality dessert from the menu.The waiter went to order it for us and then we are told they have run out! We asked for the bill and left asap....awful place would never return.

    The food and service was very good. The chef's special tuna starter needs a special mention as it danced on my taste buds and was delicious.

    Restaurant busy but not overfull . Music paired with the Jazz festival ….. menu as expected and plenty of choice …… will return BUT kitchen was in turmoil ; argument between chef and his team was audible and unpleasant …..one of the team had not turned up for work. Entire restaurant was waiting for their mains - many left after 1.5 hours , we stayed as Vlad our waiter was attentive and informative managing our expectations expertly … when it arrived the food was good. It was too late for dessert which wasn’t even offered . Last years visit was great so it was a one off for us - I would recommend the Chef comes out and talks to his diners - it is his gig not his waiting staff.

    The reviews all seemed promising…. Food was good. Decor was definitely not finished. Staff perhaps needed more training. Maybe we caught them on a bad night? Either way we left slightly underwhelmed.

    Disappointed with the steak meal. Although it seemed it was a good deal about a third of my steak was gristle and fat and inedible. I pointed it out when my plate was collected but it got no reaction at all. The ambience was poor and the place smelt musty. Afraid we are unlikely to return.

    We had a birthday lunch last week and the food was excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive and the prices were reasonable, especially the lunch menu. However , the walls in the ladies toilet looked like someone was using up all the old blue paint so could do with a professional finish!

    A very relaxing evening. Excellent food, welcoming, efficient waiting staff. Particularly enjoyed the pre starter and the palate cleanser. There was no rush which I enjoy when eating out. We will definitely go back .

    I had a wonderful experience at La Petite Brasserie Cheltenham, a French restaurant with a relaxed and elegant atmosphere. The service was impeccable, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. I started with the scallops, a signature dish that was delicious, followed by the Vennison, a succulent and tender steak with . The wine list was extensive and well-curated, and I enjoyed a glass of Bordeaux with my meal. La Petite Brasserie Cheltenham is a perfect place for a romantic date, a business lunch, or a family celebration. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a taste of France in Cheltenham. I will definitely come back to La Petite Brasserie Cheltenham and try more of their dishes, especially their seafood and vegetarian options.

    Great food in terms of quality and price, lovely staff who were very polite and smiley. Ambience is a bit formal. Would definitely go back and would recommend. Happy to help with some people development training. My background is in the hospitality sector.

    Great food and good service. But very quiet for a Friday night. But despite the the lack of buzz we enjoyed ourselves.

    I really had high hopes for this restaurant. On paper sounded great, but unfortunately we didn't have a good experience in any shape of form! We arrived 6:20 for dinner and our main was served 8.05 and not even right and order isn't complete. Kids food wasn't even cooked by that time. We sent food back to the kitchen to be cooked again as meat was raw. Then after all the wait and the wait to re-cook, it came still not cooked at all. We don't eat pork at all, and we told the waiter that when we arrived, but yet kids mac and cheese came with ham in it. And not just that, it wasn't stated on the menu that it has ham. As for the service, oh my, oh my! One guy serving the whole restaurant, took long to take our orders, didnt really have any answers to our questions regarding food. We werent asked about drinks or got any water served. Terrible communications. We left restaurant midway without finishing the very inedible food. A very bad experience. And to add insult to injury it was all on Christmas day. So we went home hungry and with no other food alternative.

    In my view this restaurant is right up there with any of the top Cheltenham eateries. Food was superb, and I lived in France for 25 years , and this restaurant compares more than favourably

    Little hidden gem in Cheltenham. Whilst the interior is quite rough around the edges and ultimately quite poor, the food more than makes up for it. Fantastic fine-dining style food with some nice complementary amuse-bouches. Definitely going back.

    This restaurant is a little gem in the high Street. The lobster was lovely and every dish was delightfully presented as well as delicious. Very understated interior giving an authenic bistro vibe with great ambience and French cuisine.

    What a great restaurant with excellent food! It’s essentially fine dining without the excessive price-tag. Dishes are innovative and the chefs have added several clever twists providing unique, rich, balanced flavours. Several dishes and drinks also involve an element of theatre. Unexpected and again, clever we’re the complimentary Amuse Bouche, palette-cleanser and Petit-fours, that completed the occasion. Our only criticism (if it really is one) is that the portions are a little too large, so we had no room for dessert!

    What a lovely small restaurant. Beautiful and delicious food and wine. Starter portions were very large - the scallops were amazing. The chicken curry was the best we’ve had It was so nice to have lobster as it’s so rare to have it in restaurants in this area. Service was super All just perfect for our date. We will be back.
