Fabulous day while watching the racing, super busy but the team were on top of their game, had everything ready and were brilliant!! Hats off to you Brown Jug you’re amazing!! Used to work here 30 years ago and you are truly holding up the local pub atmosphere.

Popped in for £10 lunch deal. Great value well presented by the chef (ribs and fish and chips). Wonderful service from the young barman. From what we experienced today I recommend for an inexpensive weekday lunch on the Bath Rd.

A group of us needed a meeting place fairly last-minute, and Rosie and her team went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They provided hot drinks and breakfast baps which were delicious, and even lit the fire as it was a really cold morning. Nothing was too much trouble and we are so grateful, and impressed with the genuinely warm welcome and service provided. Thank you Rosie, hoping to come back and try a Sunday roast at some point soon 🙂 Genuinely lovely people, 100% recommend.

I went into this pub for the first time for a pint of Waddington's 6X. Nice atmosphere and bar staff were good. Spoilt by a man wearing an 'I love Trump hat' sporting racist rubbish and calling the young bar person 'Ma Cherie'. I accept a pub is for all but some people spoil the atmosphere.

We had read the reviews about the Sunday roast offering so we had high expectations and we were not disappointed or surprised. What we didn't expect was the standard of service. The staff were INCREDIBLE! The way the service staff spoke about the kitchen team was beautiful and you can tell how proud they were to be delivering top quality and it really made it a very special experience. Thank you brown jug!

My recent visit to a Cheltenham pub for Sunday roast was outstanding, placing it among my top three dining experiences in the area. Opting for the mixed beef and lamb, I was served a perfectly portioned, flavorful meal. The meats were succulent and well-prepared, avoiding the common pitfall of being overcooked. Accompanied by generous sides of potatoes, beans, and red cabbage, the meal was a delightful mix of tastes and textures. The staff's friendliness further enhanced the dining experience, making the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Based on the quality of food and service, I highly recommend this pub for anyone seeking a top-tier Sunday roast in Cheltenham. I eagerly anticipate my next visit.

Sunday roast, wow, amazing quality, plentiful quantity, underselling, as cost for what you receive seems unbalanced.

Went to their first comedy night in association with Crackers Comedy clubs. It was sold out with the only tickets available were standing room only! Rosie, was really welcoming and friendly. The food was great and the drinks were not too expensive. The Comedy was top class with the headline act Iszy Lawrence bringing down the house with some quality joke. I would recommend the Brown Jug and highly recommend Crackers Comedy Club events!

We live in Cheltenham (Bath Road area) so have loads of places to choose from. The Jug is one of our FAVS. It’s a local pub, with authentic home cooked grub and always a warm welcome. It’s changed hands a few times and finally in the hands of people who know their stuff. Highly recommend it ~ grab a cold pint, play a spot of darts, scoff amazing food and go home happy

Don't bother with the golf here, a once lovely 18 holes golf course has been reduced to just 9 very average holes by the current owners, whilst all the "newer clubby" things cost a fortune.......trying to bring all the Londoners who have 2nd and 3rd homes here I suspect. Avoid!
