The menu appeared promising and we decided to try the Chicken and crispy bacon Ciabatta. We imagined a toasted bun with grilled chicken and crispy bacon, but what we received was chunks of chicken and soggy bacon in a heavy creamy sauce in an untoasted roll. It was disappointing in both appearance and taste, and we ended up leaving half of it untouched. The Tripadvisor description of the Royal mentioned fresh, expertly prepared food cooked on a chargrill, but our experience was quite different. This was our first visit since the restaurant changed ownership and sadly, we may need to look for a new local spot for dining.
We went for an early dinner. The bar drinks were well received we had good service. My partner ordered the Paprika Chicken said it was tasty but there were far too many chickpeas in the dish. I ordered the Duck stir fry it was tasteless bland. The only flavour was the chillis spring onions. The dishes were well presented, however, for the price we paid we were very disappointed with our meal didn't feel the cost reflected the quality. Thank you to the Royal for over 20 years but it is now GOODBYE.
Our second visit in 2 weeks. First for my birthday, second for work as staying nearby. Charlie the whole team are great. Fabulous service, great food and a lovely outdoor space. Define our go to place in Cheltenham. Our recommendations are the chicken wings starter and the crispy pork belly and mushroom linguine mains. Delicious!
Yet again we had trouble ordering and getting the right drinks, trying to sell us a different drink rather than checking if they had what we wanted(which they did) also confused the with/without ice different staff so can only assume its a training (lack of) issue. Food, starters and mains were great.

Hooray for the new owners! At last a varied, affordable menu. There's a great choice of wine and a pint of larger is what it should be £5. The pizza's are excellent and if the sun's out you can enjoy them in the lovely garden. The burgers are great too. We will be back!
Pub with good beer and food. Guest pop up pizza merchant a couple times a week (delish, crispy and hot). Busy at weekends with families. Enclosed garden, dog friendly. Small car park
linguini dressed with indigestible quantities of cream and cheese and occasional mushroom. No garnish let alone salad. Poor and unimaginative.
Good food at reasonable prices there were 9 of us and all the food came out at the same time. Would definitely recommend.

The restaurant has a charming ambiance, the staff is welcoming, and the food is delicious and affordably priced.
The food was fantastic, but the wine appeared to be overpriced compared to the cost of the food.
