Hanover House in Cheltenham

Well what can i say ! My ever first visit at lumière was last year! So impressed from that last visit I just had too pop back again as soon as... I love this restaurant as it nice and small enough, and not to big! Makes the experience more Intimate.. Having sat down to the table with a pre-drink inhand, it was time for the taster and the wine flight to start... First was the grand tasting of 3 canapés which consisted of a Taramasalata fish looking cracker, Cornish Lobster and a stinking Bishop... All 3 was absolutely spot on! Best one was the stinking Bishop! Tasting and Visually... The the Sourdough with Cultured Butter and a chicken skin butter. The chicken skin butter is always a winner  winner.. Next up was the potato & eel !! Which I had at my first visit! And boy-o so glad it's still on the menu! It's still so bloody good ! Then it was an absolute fat and excitedly cooked Orkney Scallop! The subtle flavours Work around the scallop. Next course was yet again another banger that I had from my last visit, creedy Carver Duck.. Thin slices of Duck with the very special Duck Parfait with chocolate! Just love that Parfait with chocolate, dam delicious. Next was the magical Tequila Slammer! Great cleanser and theatrical looking. Then for the main meat which was Hogget! Now this was literally unbelievably good ! It's one of them dishes that you wish it was massive! Then we moved over to the sweet Section hour.. First off was like an duck egg set custard with Apricot Sorbet. This was very tasty and refreshing! Nice little pot of delightful goodness. Second dessert was Strawberries and chocolate! Yet another dessert that's made my happy to be there .. So they had an extra course on the menu for just a little bit extra! So I asked for the course to come out after the desserts a it was a cheese course... Baron Bigod Cheese and a sourdough Crumpet! Now I love cheese courses like this ! Instead of the boring cheeseboard!! Which is so outdated in my eyes! So I was very happy.. Then it was over to the petit Fours! Which to get a good plenty of then to finish of an extremely tasty food... So was it worth coming back to?? Well, obviously, from what I've just written! It's worth travelling to. Go on ! Go and enjoy Lumière at least once, twice? Three, four times.. It's worth it....

We have a group meeting here every Friday morning. Such a lovely bright and airy place, serving great food and drinks

Absolutely amazing roast dinner!! Portion sizes are epic and everything tastes great. Highly recommend

toastie wasn't toasted on one side and barely warm

One of the best independent cafes in Cheltenham and probably the best cakes in the town. Lovely atmosphere and staff. Despite getting there at busy lunchtime on Friday we had great service from Eli. Will definitely go back.
