MUSE Brasserie - Cheltenham in Cheltenham

My Tbone steak was cooked to perfection 👌

We went here as a last minute decision for mid week lunch. So glad we did. Great service from a charming waitress. Really nice tasting, excellent food and wine. Saw the rest of the team as we left and they seemed like a great unit. We will be back!

Superb food, amazing decor, attentive but discrete service. We went for a double birthday celebration and were not disappointed. Highly recommend a visit!

Can't fault it. Great meal and location. Definitely recommended

Dined with a group of friends. Everything was great - attentive, friendly service, lovely, well cooked and presented food and really reasonable prices. We were there for a friend’s birthday, and they thoughtfully bought a birthday chocolate cake with a candle.

Picked a brasserie with a difference. Seemed to be fusion French and Indian. Very friendly staff on a quiet Wednesday lunchtime, so attentive service. Nice wine selection at reasonable prices. We had the Price-fixe menu which was good value and I opted for Le tiffin - Gulabi chicken tikka masala, cumin rice, paratha and papadoms. Wow, excellent flavour , just delicious. My wife had the Pan-seared garlic gnocchi, pesto sauce and was also suitably impressed. Would recommend!!

Fabulous celebration. Age range was 82 to 19, something for everyone including dietary restrictions. Service was discrete and attentive. Every dish amazing. Starters included the soft shell crab (wow) and pork belly (double wow from the 19 year old), mains Le Tiffin, cod, monkfish as well as duck and risotto- all excellent. Those that had room enjoyed sticky toffee pudding, ice cream and pavlova, all fab. Ambiance just right. Thank you for a special 70th birthday celebration

Was a great family experiance. Food was fantastic and atmosphere friendly and inviting. The venue itself was beautifully decorated. You have to pay for class and as aman of moderate income I found this wasn't great value. If I had the money I would probably change that point of view. It's not a negative just a financial reality.

Great fusion of French and Indian food. Fantastic and we will return when we next cube to Cheltenham

Un très bon accueil de la part du Chef et de ses serveurs pour un repas de famille. Une note d'exotisme pour ces plats, marqués par l'alliance de la fine cuisine indienne avec la cuisine française, qui ravit le palais de toutes ces saveurs. Un pur moment de bonheur pour les papilles gustatives !! A découvrir absolument.

Amazing ambience. The symphony between Indian and French food is evident. Delicious food. Catch of the day is a must try!

My daughter recommended this lovely restaurant so we booked for a Thursday evening when we were spending a few days in Cheltenham. First, the restaurant is very pretty and although we booked for an early dinner at 7 pm there were plenty of other diners there already. From start to finish the staff, the food, the wine and not forgetting the chef (who came out to say hello) was perfect. The amuse bouche was a nice touch when we arrived and my duck with cherry sauce, dauphinois potatoes and roast vegetables was one of the best dishes I have ever eaten. My husband had the pistacchio crusted cod and enjoyed his as much as I did. There was no problem when we asked to share a sticky toffee pudding as we were too full to have one each. Muse would definitely be my first choice if we return to Cheltenham.

Great place. Interesting but non pretentious menu. Good place to begin family.

Really enjoyed this place, beautiful food, attentive staff and reasonable cost. Definitely worth a visit when in Cheltenham!

Staff were friendly and attentive, atmosphere relaxing. Lovely decor, food was amazing, great options to suit all diners, will definitely be returning. Chef came out to speak to diners and was genuinely interested in listening. A wonderful evening.

So it’s a fusion of french and Indian cuisine. The chefs from Hyderabad. However not every dish is fusion so you could happily have a ‘french’ meal or an ‘Indian’ meal. I had a heritage tomato salad to start which was very god. Then I had the fish of the day - which was tandoori monkfish. I was a bit sceptical but most of the fish was very good and worked well with the tandoori coating - however the end pieces were overpowered by the tandoori which shows how delicate the balance is. My companions had a wide range of the rest of the menu. All good and the masala fries were very nice. I would come again !

As a family of 4 we went here a few weeks ago and every course was absolutely fabulous, can’t fault it. Three courses, amuse bouche, wine, cocktails all for £250 and worth every penny.

Probably in the top 2 meals I have had. Tastes were varied and worked excellently together. Highly recommend.

This was our second visit to Cheltenham and to this restaurant. It is excellent. Great food, an interesting menu, good staff and lovely decor.

I visited with colleagues while staying in Cheltenham. The restaurant was recommended to us by the airbnb owner. The restaurant boasts beautiful decor, friendly and attentive staff, and a fantastic menu - the food blew us all away. Lovely little Amuse Bouche before our starters, very tasty. We had varied meals, by starter was the seafood trio which was absolutely gorgeous, I could really taste the Asian fused with the traditional seafood starter. Main course for me was steak which was perfectly cooked, medium rare as ordered. Chips were perfect, crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. One of the restaurant owners and chef, Frank came over to chat - such a lovely gentleman. Good luck with your next restaurant, I very much look forward to bringing my family to see you in Cardiff. Highly recommended, 5*

The most fantastic meal. Service was outstanding and food delish. From an Indian and a lover of fine dining, this cross between French and Indian was delicious. The price is reasonable for the quality and elevation of the dishes. The service was outstanding, kind attentive and helpful. A fantastic meal and super enjoyable.

We were quite surprised to find this little nugget in Cheltenham. The service was amazing but as importantly was the food. The cuisine was described to us as a mix of French and Indian . Lets not forget the sticky toffee pudding .. mouthwatering.While this was a rather unique mix, undoubtedly, very delicious. A must visit for anyone who is around the cotswolds.

There are many vegetarian options in the menu. Everything we ate was great. Desserts were also very tasty.

We had a nice simple dinner with lovely dishes and quality service in an easy and casual setting - what more can one ask for on a damp chill evening.

Can't rate this highly enough, amazing food, fabulous cocktails and brilliant service, very highly recommended

Great food expertly prepared and presented. Very enjoyable. Modern fusion cooking with amazing flavours.

Fabulous in every way. Best meal I've had in ages. Love love it

Amazing food, beautifully presented. Fantastic staff, very attentive. I was extremely impressed. Lovely decor too!

Excellent a la carte menu, fresh food, light and very tasty! The chef is absolutely amazing and friendly. Good wine list and the most important thing in the UK : WINE GLASSESS! The T bone steak - SPEECHLESS! The duck breast - LOVELY!! chapeau!!

Going here is always a treat for good atmosphere, quality food and drinks. The food serving is really a good value for money and the food selection can cater for everyone. Not a vegan but I tried the vegan option of having the spinach, tofu and it wa so good that I can easily switch to be a vegetarian. Visit this place and you will see how special it is. So glad we have this restaurant in Cheltenham

Fabulous restaurant. Food, service, decor & atmosphere not to be missed. Highly recommended.

Second time here and wasn’t disappointed. Very nice food. I love the cured mackerel served 3 ways. Deep fried Okra, crispy and tasty. For the mains Chicken a la moutard and spicy haddock. It was nice to meet Tom the French chef.

What a beautiful premise and dining experience! We were in Cheltenham for a couple of nights, and our hotel receptionist recommended this place. It was a busy Saturday evening and we had no prior booking, so we waited for about 15-20mins. The cuisine is Indian and French influenced, which is something rather new to us. Excellent service from the get go, and we couldn't be more pleased. We ordered some drinks to start, which both were delicious (Blueberry Bourbon Sour and Violet French 07). We got some complimentary bread rolls & butter and a couple of Cucumber Gespacho shots and Chicken Tikkis—also delicious. For the starters, we ordered Pork Croquettes and Cauliflower 65. The croquettes were beautiful and complex, whereas the cauliflower was kinda the opposite . I wish I had gone for the Smoked Duck & Chicken Terrines. The main dishes, however, were stunning! My bf went for the Chicken a la moutarde, and I went for the Pork Chop (swapping the chips for mashed potato). Overall, it was such an amazing dining experience. The service was impeccable, and after our meal the French head chef came out to have chat with us. Glad we went and would definitely recommend! Thanks

What an incredible find. Amazing food, service, cocktails, ambience. The team catered to my gluten free needs and they menu held so many wonderful dishes, it was hard to choose.

Outstanding restaurant. Gorgeous interior design, even better food and excellent service. The chef even came out at the end to welcome us and check on us which was lovely. No faults at all thank you so much.

Superb food, friendly and efficient service, great value. Will be going again without doubt.

Such amazing staff and service... The food was perfectly cooked and very well presented. Every effort was made by the staff to make our visit special. Looking forward to returning.

Beautiful restaurant. Amazing service. The presentation and flavours of the food are exceptional. Would highly recommend

Excellent Cheltenham restaurant highly recommende

So impressed - the appearance of the food was incredible. We all thought genuinely that the taste wouldn’t live up to the image, and were happily proved wrong! Just as delicious as it looked The chef (one of the owners) even came out to our table to explain the vision of the restaurant, and to ask about our experience. He was so welcoming and friendly. Definitely one to return to. All of the waiting staff were friendly, polite and completed the experience.

This is a very special place and well worth a visit. I suggest trying the lunch menu: ocra fries, followed by Le Tifin - a delicious curry that comes with rice, bread and some small popadoms. The ocra comes with a lovely marinade for dipping. Enjoy the window art by Emily Juliet Steven’s

Went here with my mum for dinner and we were blown away! Truly one of the best restaurants we have ever been to. The service was outstanding; everything was served with a smile and very promptly. The chef and owner himself Franck even came to every table to chat to customers! Not to mention the food which was so delicious, I imagine everything on the menu is cooked to perfection as our pork chops were. Dessert was also fantastic I recommend the chocolate Marquise. Will definitely come again it was a very memorable evening.

The place to be if you liked to have the tastiest food and great service. Not a vegetarian but tried the roasted aubergine and kofta for mains It is absolutely fantastic!!! Will definitely come back again

Went here on a hen do and May who looked after us was wonderful, so attentive and kindly took lots of photos for us Food was fantastic and the chef coming out to say hello was a lovely touch All round brilliant experience here

Lovely place. Friendly team. Great food

Enjoyed a glorious meal here. Chicken and fish dishes were just amazing. Great value for lunchtime too. Staff bring out as many bread rolls as you like. The owner also took time to mingle with the guests, Top touch. Cannot wait to visit again. Well done guys. What a great experience and thank you.

If you want a quality dining experience, muse is where to go. Friendly to celiacs, gluten intolerants and vegans. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

We had a lovely lunch here yesterday. The lunch menu is excellent value, wine is also very well priced. The setting is gorgeous, the food was delicious and very well presented. I would recommend to anyone visiting Cheltenham.

Tasty food and great presentation. Attention to detail, french inspired. Pleasantly surprised!

The food was excellent and so was the service

Brilliant place, food is amazing, service is amazing.

Absolutely delicious food with attentive staff who looked after us all evening. We had a wonderful evening and well definitely return.

We enjoyed a nice dinner here on Saturday. It's a really nicely furnished interior with care taken on style and attractive menus. A small but very good selection of meat, fish and vegetarian options. We had the goats cheese and crispy pork belly starters. The belly wasn't crispy but the chef (who visited most tables) explained the skin is removed and a crispy crumb is added. It was tasty enough but I was hoping for proper crackling. The goats cheese was very strong and the chutney and pickled items weren't tart enough to cut through it. Main courses we had coq au vin and venison. The male waiter, when we ordered, was very unsure as to what veg/carb came with main courses so we ended up with too many side dishes of vegetable. The venison was quite nice if quite a small portion, but served with a delicious berry jus and some truffle mash which was well seasoned. The star on the plate was the bolognaise bon bon, delicious and I could have eaten a bowl full. The coq au vin came with a small side slice of dauphinoise which I'm told was a bit dense and dry. We didn't have room for desserts as we hadn't appreciated bread and amuse bouches were coming from the kitchen. Nice warm rolls served with unsalted butter and a shot of leek and potato soup and a tomato arancini. Perhaps my fault but the beaujolais which I was expecting to be light, mellow and fruity was sharp and unpleasant. We left it to breathe almost to the very end and our dinner guest struggled through one glass, I left mine and we left some in the bottle. Unheard of! Guess we were unlucky but for £32 was hoping for better. The general serving staff were friendly and warm if a little inexperienced at serving. Instead of delivering around each side of the table, dishes were passed over in front of us. But a minor point. It was a really nice atmosphere and mainly small groups of diners and couples enjoying a chilled evening. I didn't notice any music which might have been nice. I would return.

Dined at Muse to celebrate a friend's birthday, such a lovely experience. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the staff very attentive without being intrusive. As for the food, all our choices were absolutely delicious. Franc, the chef, often pops out of the kitchen and visits diners, to ensure that they are happy with their food. All in all, a wonderful experience.

The ambiance is superb, well-thought-out menu, the food was amazing and the service was fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant 💯✔️

Brilliant service and delicious food…really nice place and everything was perfect...❤️👌 We will certainly be back...

My partner and I enjoyed attentive, friendly service and delicious food. The restaurant itself is a lovely setting, particular favourites were the scallops and veal. Deserts and cocktails were also fantastic. We will certainly be back.

Came with a large group of ladies for a Christmas meal. We were seating quickly and welcome drinks came round. Then another warm little drink came around with a snack. All our meals were lovely to look at S well as flavoursome. Mini mince pies offered at the end. Great service and they were busy. It’s a fusion of French and Indian. Odd combo but it works.

This is the best food we have eaten in Gloucestershire for years (and we keep searching for decent food)!!! The staff were all lovely and very attentive, the menu choices were so good that I found it difficult to make a final decision and when the food arrived it was delicious…. every single dish! There is nothing about Muse to fault and insufficient space to eulogise enough!

Excellent venue for a very special occasion. Frank is an excellent host and chef - we have NEVER had such great food & service.

Food was a great atmosphere, but just to warn you, there was no disabled access or toilet. Apart from that, a great night.

Having used TA for guidance we booked this place to celebrate our 30yr wedding anniversary and were not disappointed. The food is incredible and the variety off the back of the fusion menu was sensational. Highly recommend the parsnip and apple soup and home made gnocchi or the more Indian based flight ….. the little bonus was the great cocktails and beers on tap. Our server Rahna was lovely and fun and made the experience all the better. Very fresh foods and clean environment - great decor and well set out restaurant. Thanks for the memories!!!!!

Excellent service delicious food lovely atmosphere. We’re definitely going back soon .. thank you for an awesome night

Freiends took us are first time. The decor is the best. Staff the best , but best of all The Food lunch Menu ste was top rate. The foos is the best, one of the best in Cheltenham You must go can say no more

This place is amazing! The food is exquisite, the service attentive and lovely ambiance-all for a very reasonable price! Can’t praise it highly enough,

A very modern interior with very comfy seats. The tables were nicely spaced apart, instead of being on top of each other like some restaurants. The food was amazingly good and our server Rahna was super friendly and fun. We enjoyed it so much we've booked again, for our friends who are coming to visit.

Lovely food and great service - really enjoyed our visit. Great selection of wines as well. Would really recommend coming here!

2nd Dec-23. The food was delicious but the whole service experience from waiting to be seated, waiting a long time in between courses, in fact we waited 25 minutes for our dessert. I will mention that people who were seated after us were served before us. Definitely nice food but I very much doubt we will return.

Absolutely delicious night out! Best sticky toffee pudding ever - we will definitely be back!

Amazing evening. Came here with our family this evening and received excellent service. The menu was fantastic and I found it hard to choose. However, the dishes were all excellent and SO tasty. We had a really memorable evening

An unusual concept were French cuisine meets Indian food. Absolutely loved it. Great food, great service and at the end the chef/owner came around the tables checking we'd had a good time and seemed to genuinely care, it didn't feel like it was a chore...

A group of old friends decided to go for the valentine's meal, wow is all I can say. This is our 2nd visit so we didn't expect the wow to be here on the 2nd visit. We were wrong 5+ stars from all 6 of us.

Disappointing Valentine’s night experience. Tables crammed in, indifferent food served slowly and warm rose wine provided in an ice bucket with hardly any ice in it. I won’t be back.

Visited for valentine’s set menu as I’ve wanted to come for a while and the menu looked nice. It was £70pp and had 5 or so courses. On walking in we noticed how brightly lit and chaotic the restaurant felt, not the ambiance I was hoping for on valentine’s night! The bright the food out so quickly that we didn’t have time to enjoy it, and one course they removed before I’d even had time to finish it! It was still half eaten when the brought out the next course and struggled to find somewhere to put it on the table as the table was so small. They promptly took what I was still eating and walked away. I didn’t say anything as I was hoping for a romantic meal and complaining isn’t romantic…There were servers cleaning and scraping plates in the restaurant- it felt like a school canteen. The food was ok, I had the smallest lamb cutlet I have ever seen. It was such a let down. My husband came home and opened the fridge to look for something to eat! I won’t return it doing think, which is a shame, I was hoping for better. It was really disappointing.

Muse Brasserie is possibly one of the prettiest restaurants I have visited, with its pink & teal flowery decor, this place has a truly delightful interior. Staff are very attentive, helpful & friendly, giving good advice on the menu, and options. What made Muse Brasserie...

Fantastic Experience!!! This is the only restaurant in Cheltenham where the staff does not give you a judging look when you decided to go for tap water. Staff does the job well and FOOD is amazing!!! Great value for money for their lunch set menu...

Really lovely place ,great menu choice and staff Very good value and quality of food with a contemporary menu offering something to suit everyone

Great service, lovely atmosphere, and amazing food. The vegan menu is available separately, and it was great to see tasty plant based options. The tapioca tikki was my favourite. Would recommend.

Amazing food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff

A fabulous meal, sublime food, amazing staff. All perfect. I loved the decor too - the blossom is so pretty. I liked that the chef came round at the end of service talking to everyone and asking for feedback. We are going to Bristol for...

There are not enough words to describe what a wonderful experience my partner and I had at the restaurant on Friday 19th of January. Previous visit for me had been amazing so I chose this venue for his special birthday and we travelled to Cheltenham...

Really good experience: lovely & friendly service, great selection of dishes executed to perfection, very nice decor & presentation. We'll done chef & the team, highly recommend.

Stopped by on a quiet Thursday night. Only a handful of other customers. Beautifully decorated place. Food was great - all the courses were very well executed. amuse bouche with soup, cabbage and creme fraîche. Scallops with pesto and garlic sourdough. Venison with roast veg, bolognaise bonbon and a berry jus. Blood orange creme brûlée. Accompanied by a tasty mocktail. Service was friendly. Bill came to about £150 for three of us, three courses and soft drinks, so pretty decent value.

Really good wine and very reasonable. Interesting blend of french and Indian. The (french) chef came to ask about our meal and explained the 2 chef combo which was lovely and made sense given the menu. Booked this based on Google reviews as we were in Cheltenham for a birthday the next day and loved it. Recommend

My partner and I came here on my birthday and it was hands down an amazing evening. The food… absolutely stunning, melt in your mouth just *chefs kiss* And the owners son is the mixologist and makes the best cocktails including a cocktail which basically tastes of lemon meringue pie and the top is crispy like you get on an actual meringue pie. (Impressive). Staff were very friendly and chatty - they couldn’t do enough for us. They bought me out a birthday cake with a candle which was a lovely surprise! I really like the fact this place is fine dining but without the pretentiousness of the fine dining experience. We will be returning, great job guys

We went here to celebrate our marriage and it was a perfect experience. The food and the service were outstanding and we enjoyed every second of it. We will be going more often!

Top end food, great service and surroundings with a very reasonable price tag. Perfect!

This restaurant is a real treat, delicious food,great decor and faultless service. This was our 3rd visit here and it didn’t dissapoint,as vegetarians we struggle to find good food when we eat out but the menu here gave us plenty of options without doubling up....

Had an amazing experience here! We ate entirely vegan and were blown away, not only by the offerings, but how delicious they were. I really admire the artistry here in putting together their plant-based meals. We tried the tapioca tikki as a starter and then had the Jerusalem artichoke curry and aubergine steak as our main meals. The server asked if we were there for a special occasion and we mentioned that it was our anniversary – it was a huge surprise where a complimentary dessert appeared, hand delivered by the chef. Some of the best service we've ever received, we'll definitely be back and recommending this place to all our vegan/veggie friends.

Went here for dinner with my parents and some friends of theirs. Food was brilliant, had the softshell crab to start which was delicious, a really unique experience as well as it was literally a whole crab. Then I had the tiffin which was a...

I very rarely award five stars but this place is really special, from the ambience to the service and of course, above all the food and drink. We all loved the meals we had chosen and I particularly enjoyed my dessert cocktail (was too full...

We had the best tasting menu in Cheltenham. From the amuse-bouche to the dessert, everything tasted delicious. The service was also excellent. We will be back to try the à la carte menu soon.

Four of us visited Muse last Saturday evening, and it was an amazing experience. It was undoubtedly the best meal we have ever had. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the staff were super friendly and professional. The cocktails were all amazing, and...

Had my husband birthday dinner at muse it was perfect from the staff, very welcoming and answering any questions we had to the beautiful decoration and the food was delicious, I would recommend the cocktails too I had four lol I shall definitely return thankyou

Our first visit to a First Class restaurant in every way. I wish more stars were available and highly recommend this place. The flavours and food quality are outstanding and the little extras provided added to the experience. We enjoyed the Okra, Seafood Bouillabaisse and Chicken Tikka. Wonderful service especially the chef coming over to chat to us. Thank you for a very memorable evening we look forward to our next visit.

An impromptu lunch and was blown away by the food and flavours! Also very reasonable set menu price. Shame we’re not local (we live in France!) but definitely recommend.

Couldn't fault anything and the food was amazing.

The best meal I have had in a Bristol restaurant in a long time. Amazing food, great decor and very attentive staff. I couldn't fault it.
