Spencers in Cheltenham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Have had full English here before and it’s good value and friendly/efficient service. But stopped in for a breakfast bap and was charged basically the same price as the full English. It wasn’t even very good and sides of coleslaw, crisps and salad very random. They’ve lost my custom unfortunately.

A master class in 'how it should be done'! This cafe surpasses all others in terms of first class service, speed, quality and value for money. It is the perfect example of how to run a business; no other like it!

Without a doubt, the best breakfast in Cheltenham. We come regularly and think it is fantastic. Service and quality of food is top notch!

Haven't been here for 20 years and called in today. Had the breakfast special which was absolutely fantastic and a great mug of tea. Lovely staff. It's a 10 from me.

What a fantastic breakfast! Don’t miss out on this one, a real gem in the heart of Cheltenham. I would highly recommend it.

What had happened to this place. I haven’t been here for a while and as I was in Cheltenham thought I would get some breakfast. Bacon sandwich the bread was wet and soggy. The bacon and egg baguette tasted horrible. Not sure I will use again. Come on Spencer’s you are better than this

Great selection on the menu from a breakfast to a dinner with excellent desserts also. Staff very helpful and polite and friendly. Service was quick food piping hot could ask or a better service. First visit to the establishment but next time in Cheltenham this will be a priority to visit for food regardless on time of day

Original tasting greasy spoon. Excellent service and food was good, good menu selection, with vibrant conversations happening all round, top place

Lovely breakfast impeccable service lovely people. Will definitely return. Tomorrow morning I would think.

we both had a very nice breakfast. staff polite and friendly.we even got smiles. drinks ok.only fault toast not done very brown, and not a lot of butter on toast.

Just stopped for coffee and toast at this friendly cafe - such a warm and friendly welcome from staff. Nice to get Tiptree marmalade too! Recommend!

Lovely family friendly Cafe, fantastic breakfast all round. Also the staff couldn’t do enough for us. Would come again.

The staff are very kind and efficient. Tasty homemade food. The atmosphere is very welcoming and there are positive vibes. I would definitely recommend this place

This is an inexpensive restaurant in the heart of Cheltenham. It is ideal for a quick bite, while on a shopping trip. The staff are really friendly and helpful, and you don't have to wait too long too be served. The menu caters for all tastes. My wife had a coronation chicken sandwich. I had the same as a baguette. It was reasonable in price. I would have liked mine a little more spicy, but it was OK. We had a pot of tea for two, and it was no trouble for the waitress to add more water when asked. We would definitely go again. We would have had a desert, but didn't need one-perhaps next time.

Would NOT recommend this place in the slightest. One member of staff was very over the top. The food was absolutely awful and my partner actually felt slightly poorly after. The cottage pie is NOT homemade! It was awful and the chips were FOUL! Gravy poured all over the food too with no option given of where you would like it. The quiche and salad was just ok with little taste. The decor inside is very dated and wallpaper hanging off the wall and cello-taped on the walls. Not a great place in the slightest and I would not return. We refused to pay for the cottage pie as it was awful and not eaten and then I was changed more for the one main meal I had! I questioned the bill at the end and the guy making the drinks was very very rude and not helpful with the receipt. He only said we would see it after we paid and was still charged more.

Been here couple of times and it's always a pleasure! The staff is so friendly and food always good!

Definitely the most friendly and enjoyable cafe in Cheltenham the staff are fantastic and always a warm welcome the breakfast is outstanding definitely recommend thank David val and the girls

I believe this was the tastiest breakfast I’ve had outside of my own kitchen, lovely and affordable. The staff was very friendly and the service quick. 10/10 Thank you!

The best breakfast in Cheltenham. Lovely people. Great value. Been going there for years and always great.

I am really impressed as fussy eaters this cafe really did a good job! Service was welcoming and quick. The lady serving us is lovely! Food came out hot and cooked to perfection! I will definitely be back! I am also impressed that they gave me the choice of mayonnaise or vinaigrette on my salad as normally it’s put on before coming out. I would definitely recommend coming here best cafe I’ve been to in a while. Thank you guys for the great service.

My friends and I popped in for brekkie on a Sunday morning. It was perfect for us, really quick service, options for all tastes on the menu. I can recommend the waffles, delicious! Cheap, cheerful, tired decor but that didn’t bother us.

Very friendly and efficient staff with a great atmosphere. Lots of regulars use on a frequent basis. Superb breakfast served piping hot and good value. Great alternative to expensive hotel breakfast. Looked like a good lunch menu.

Always go here on cheat day and will definitely be coming back! So much choice on the menu for breakfast or lunch. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. Food is quickly served Cons- no vegan options on the menu

I have visited Spencers many times over the past few years, and I always leave happy. Every person who walks in the door is greeted warmly and a seat found. Service is fast and efficient and friendly. The food is not fancy but is high...

We had lunch there, I had a baked potato with Tuna Mayo, my wife went for the mixed grill. Baked potato was crunchy on the outside and perfect in the middle and came with a generous salad. My wife’s mixed grill was also spot-on! Service...

Absolutely banging breakfast everything was pipping hot and tasty service was second to none definitely worth a visit

Such lovely service, everyone greets you with a smile and always very welcoming, food is amazing always so hot and fresh and such a great variety to choose from, quick friendly service will deffo be using this cafe more often 😀

IGreat value for money,service is quick and the food is good. Had the everyday breakfast which was great on quantity and ok for quality. Sure there are nearby places where the food might be better quality but you cannot beat this place for value.

Perfect “greasy spoon”. Not pretentious. Not serving any poncy overpriced hipster nonsense. Perfectly cooked (not at all greasy) full English - I had veggie, my friends had the meat options. Coffee was strong and tasty. Obviously popular locally as it fills up quick. Friendly and...

Friendly staff, quick service , clean establishment. But if that was a homemade Lasagne I’ll eat my hat. Bulk standard, flavourless, and supermarket standard quality. ……….chips were nice,

I ordered the eggs Benedict. I think it was probably me, the eggs Benedict was served in a way that was different than I expected. The staff were friendly, attentive and on top of their game. They made up for the surprising food.

Not been here before but thought I’d give it a go for a quick lunch on my own. The cafe was packed! And I can see why. The second I walked in the door someone showed me to a seat. Super quick service and all...

I have been here a couple of times just for a quick lunch, and find the menu great - nothing fancy, but good well cooked food at very reasonable prices. The only downside is the amount of tables crammed into the restaurant makes it very...

We went here for breakfast midweek and it was just great! We both ordered and the food and coffee came very quickly. Both breakfasts were large and great value. We will be back. Waitress was also lovely. Very happy and chatty.

Great service, coffee & breakfast. Good, friendly service & value for money. Plenty of choice. Will be back

This is a great cafe, from the happy smiley welcome from the waitress to the delicious food at a really good price, if I lived closer I would be here every week!

Just the place for a generous, very reasonably priced meal. No frills, as you’d expect in a local, town centre cafe, but fresh, hot food served by friendly staff. We had jacket potatoes, enormous and well filled, with a plentiful salad. Other diners around were...

Mega breakfast is amazing and the staff are always friendly and welcoming with excellent service. We love this place!!

I met my sister from Cirencester & granddaughter on her lunch hour today for lunch at Spencers, I've been coming to this cafe for some years now and remember frequenting it when my son was here and he left us suddenly in 2010, I asked...

I had a Mega Breakfast one morning and was very impressed. Very tasty and very filling. The staff were helpful and prompt.

Food is alright, cooked breakfasts looked good but paninis were awful. Cheese not melted overall a poor job. For £4.20 could at least make it properly

This place the best cafe ever been to the owner and his staff are great, service is impeccable and the food is sensational 11/10

Good gluten free breakfast, very affordable and good service. The waitress’s weren’t very knowledgable about gluten free , however the owner/ manager came over and explained they had gluten free bread and whilst the sausages weren’t gluten free, they would replace them for mushrooms for...

Incredible place to have breakfast and lunch! Very welcoming atmosphere from the attentive staff while still providing fast and kind service. Food is delicious and reasonably priced! I ordered a jacket potato while my partner enjoyed his eggs royale. Previously ordered the veggie breakfast which...

This is my new favourite cafe in Cheltenham, having just eaten the best full English breakfast I have had for a long time. Big portions, freshly cooked and delivered to our table with a smile and at a great low price. We received a friendly...

Love this cafe cant fault it great food and quick friendly service we always drop in when visiting cheltenham and never disappointed cant wait to return.

For now, tables are all outside and so you sit looking at the toings and froings in the street. The people are friendly here and the food is appetising. I had Eggs Benedict with bacon which was very nice. I should mention the golden colour...

Me and my friends just had fish and chips , it was delicious!!!! The fish was cooked perfectly . We have been coming to Spencer's for many years. And it has always very welcoming and the food and service has always been perfect. Will recommend...

Just can't get enough from their amazing food, which we always receive in no time. Very happy with the service too, so kind and efficient. Thank you

We have been coming there for over ten years Lovely place, great service, delicious food Highly recommended!!!

Llamamos aquí ayer, pedimos algo de comida, pescado con patatas fritas y una hamburguesa de pollo con patatas fritas y dos colas de pepsi, en primer lugar, las bebidas no tenían sabor y por el color parecían diluidas. El pescado estaba en su mayor parte rebozado y la hamburguesa de pollo era asquerosa: sin sabor a pollo, hamburguesas finas y baratas de Lidl que cuestan centavos, supongo. Tenía poco más de 17 años. . . . ¡perdida de dinero! ¡Evitar! !

Good food, good service , big portions and the best tuna mayo jacket potatoes that I've ever had. Delicious. Good prices. great value

What a delightful little find.....I've been there 3 times recently and each time I'm so impressed with the friendliness and efficiency. The food is very good and generous portions. Will definitely be back for more!!!!!

Mientras visitábamos Cheltenham, encontramos esta pequeña joya de café. Muy bien montado con desinfectante de manos y paredes de plástico colocadas en mesas separadas. Personal muy amable que usó máscaras y observó prácticas seguras.La comida era abundante y muy sabrosa para que pudiéramos terminar. Altamente recomendado . La ventaja adicional fue que fueron parte de Eat out to Help y también fueron muy baratos

Missed this place a lot! Our first meal after lockdown. They set up the place perfectly with separating walls between tables so it’s really safe and professional! We always love coming here, welcoming, friendly staff and huge selection of food, always fresh and tasty.

Cafe on a side street just off the main shopping street. Friendly service and good food at reasonable prices.

This is a great cafe, we had breakfast there, lovely and clean, table service too, menu for everyone's taste. The food was quickly freshly cooked and served to our table, was real nice food. It truly is how a cafe should be

Popped in her today for lunch with my son (my 1st ever visit) and what a lovely lunch it was, very good and varied menu and very reasonable prices, when the food arrived I was surprised at the size of the meals ( couldn’t actually finish it all, though I did try!!) will definitely be going back and would highly recommend

Looking for somewhere to eat whilst looking round Cheltenham and saw a sign with Spencers Cafe and followed the arrow. When we got to the cafe we were amazed how many people were going there too. We went inside and it seemed full but managed to find a table in the second room. We had no longer sat down when the waitress came with a menu and asked what we wanted to drink. Two minutes later another waitress came with the drinks and took our order. We did not have to wait too long for our meal and when it came it was presented really well and it was delicious. It has been a long time since we have been in a restaurant/cafe where the service has been so good, the girls serving were lovely and couldn't do enough for you and the presentation and food was really good too. Well done Spencers Cafe for having such a good team. Would recommend to anyone when visiting Cheltenham. Thank you for a good experience.

What a little gem this place is. Warm & friendly, great service and a lovely ambience. A very varied menu and very reasonable prices. Nothing was a problem for the staff and we felt very welcome and looked after. Thanks for a lovely lunch.

Friendly staff, big portions, or small if you ask, great atmosphere and reasonably priced. If you're looking for a great cafe this is a it.

Vinimos aquí cuando pasábamos y parecía ocupado. No estoy seguro de si él era el dueño, pero nos ayudó con la silla de paseo y fue muy servicial, ya que probablemente lo hubiéramos dejado y seguido en lugar de exprimirnos. La comida era excelente y las porciones enormes, definitivamente lo recomendaría.

Cotswold Friends a small group of retired people go out once a month for breakfast and made our second vist of year to Spencers and we all enjoyed the breakfasts very much and the service was excellent

Not long moved to Cheltenham found this nice cafe I visit nearly every day staff very friendly food always nice cannot fault the place cheap and good quality food highly recommend

Tuve la mejor experiencia durante mucho tiempo. El personal muy atento y muy amable. Tuve la mejor baguette de tocino y huevo que he probado en mucho tiempo. Escucharon a mi nieta de 3 años y suplieron sus necesidades quisquillosas y mis hijas todo el día el desayuno fue genial

Lovely cooked breakfast, fast and friendly service - just what I needed after a heavy night in Chelts - would highly recommend

Good quality food, very friendly and quick service, good value. We had a jacket potato each which was very nice. Highly recommended

Have been comming here with family and friends for ages now ! Always very welcoming ! great food for great prices The place has a homely feel and the staff are very lovely

Lovely atmosphere, staff and food. I came here as my friend was home from Uni and he recommended we go here for lunch. Food was excellent, delicious and left me feeling happy and full! I ordered a Bacon and Brie sandwich which came with coleslaw, salad and crisps and also ordered a side of chips- came to about £9 which is excellent value.

Very quaint cafe with very good service, food & speed, staff are wonderful would definitely recommend

Visited for the first time and were pleasantly surprised, large portion sizes and reasonably priced will visit again

Back up from a glorious week at the Cheltenham festival and like past years stop at Spencer’s for Breakfast and it just gets better the food is brilliant and Richard and the staff are outstanding from the minute you walk in their a fantastic welcome and to you leave heartfelt goodbye the breakfast is also fantastic I don’t think Spencer’s can be beaten god willing we can return next year thanks again Richard and all the staff from Valerie Julie Nicola and myself

We popped in and had a jacket potato each. Great Value, good quality food, very polite and efficient service - Highly recommended

Spencer's is a regular haunt for us, whenever we want a good value meal while shopping in Cheltenham. Just a short step from the high street this busy cafe serves delicious cooked-to-order meals at an affordable price. Ok, so the tables are crammed in close to each other, but the food really is good, and there is something of a family atmosphere. We usually have the "kebab": loads of marinated chicken breast pieces with rice, pitta and salad - fill up for under £8. (NB: This is NOT a kebab shop - this is just one item on a varied menu.) Amazing deserts too. Check it out!

Great little place to have your breakfast! Friendly staff, quick service and we always feel very welcomed here. Delicious food, affordable prices and a huge selection of breakfast or lunch. We visit almost every weekend and we were never disappointed. :)

Quick and friendly service! Apparently, Sherlock Holmes was filmed there :) Delicious food!!! Little cafe, pure British style, comfy and warm

Wonderful experience at this café on both occasions we have visited, right from the warm welcome as we went through the door to the moment we left. Service was prompt and food came to table quickly. Staff are alert to the customers - noticed very quickly that my son needed a straw for his drink and brought it over and interacted with him. We had food and drinks for 2 children and an adult and bill came to just over £19. Portions were generous and well cooked. We will definitely return again and highly recommend a visit.

Cotswold Friends is a small group of retired people who go out once a month for a breakfast and also go once a month for lunch so this month 12 of us came to Spencers for breakfast and it was excellent and very good value also the service was excellent as well

Have visited a few times over past year or so. This place is popular and busy, lots of waiting staff but you don't wait long at all for food, even if it is really busy. Food is great, see my pic of eggs and avo hollandaise on muffins.. OMG delicious. Well priced too.

On our annual Christmas shopping trip to Cheltenham we chanced upon Spencers Cafe.What a fortunate find! There is obviously a policy to greet people and make sure they are happily settled.Service was prompt and friendly, I would describe it as 'relaxed efficiency'! With an excellent choice on the menu, the food was hot and tasty, and portions were generous.See you next Christmas Spencers, if not before, you've got it sussed!

We were welcomed by very pleasant staff and served promptly. Having only a short amount of time til our coach trip departed, we enjoyed our drinks and toasted teacake.

I reviewed Spencers last year but feel I need to do it again. My mates and I come down for the racing every November. This year we ate in spencers every night.

Don't get to Cheltenham much but when we do we always make time for a visit to Spencers . Food is well priced and always tasty and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. I had scrambled egg on toast with bacon & hubbie had poached egg & bacon, yummy.

A usual weekend stop for me and my friends. Friendly, attentive staff who will go above and beyond for their customers. Food is not only great but also prompt. Best Cafe in Cheltenham

If you want a micheline star restaurant then go elsewhere. If you want a family run high street café, go here.

Had breakfast in this pleasant café. Food was tasty and just what I expected. Service was good. All in all, good value for money.

Came across by chance, due to lovely weather and overlooked cafes suddenly stand out due to Al fresco Dining.

Just visited with a friend for something to eat before the England game with a friend. Ordered fish and chips with a salad as advertised in their menu. However was very disappointed when the meal arrived and the chips were missing. Apparently it was my fault for asking for a salad even though it clearly states it comes with the fish and chips. If you want fish and chips probably best avoid and go to a fish and chip shop.

Popped in for lunch,always good food here and great friendly service.Portions are good value to.Service is quick sometimes they are a little too quick to clear your plate when your other friend has not finished otherwise a great place and always go there when in town.

Came here for lunch after not being able to decide where to go and very glad we did. Staff very friendly food came very quick and was delicious huge portions which I can’t complain with will definitely be back!

We been here a few times the food is always excellent we had breakfast this time and its great value. Well worth the money and you get plenty of food always tastes fresh.. service is always good the staff are friendly and welcoming..

Stopped in Cheltenham 26/05/18 on way to Taunton as M5 was saying severe delays. Parked car and saw this very clean place. Staff very friendly and helpful. Menu looks lovely, toilets clean and now the but my burger was ok but wasn't fresh it was a cheap frozen burger with not so nice cheese slice. My wife,s ham sandwich was on cheap white bread your chatprging a premium price get decent bread , granddaughter tuna salad was fresh and looked good. Mayo /tomato sauce were either lidl or aldi but definitely no flavour made the burger worst . Think I,ll try elsewhere next time

I have been here a few times and the food is great. I have never tasted fresher salad in a cafe before. It appears to be freshly made rather than poured out of a packet. The lasagne is one of the best I have tried. Staff are all very friendly and polite. Food arrives in good time. Also it is great value for money.

I've reviewed Spencers before, a while ago, but as we went back this weekend I thought it was only right to review again. Yes, it's still the best cooked breakfast we've ever had.

Having been down for the weeks racing at the festival our first port of call is breakfast and you can’t beat Spencer’s cafe the staff are so friendly food is fantastic you’re made feel welcome from all and Richard is just a gent thanks again

Very nice cafe which takes us back to what cafes should be like however 10 notes for breakfast just shows the state of play in another 10 years. With a fair selection of food to suite most peoples needs and the layout to please most peoples needs I will be back sooner rather than later.

We greatly enjoyed our dinner at Spencers, as much for the quality and taste of the food and drinks...owner is very experienced and knows what he's doing to make his customers happy,well trained staff....Tjey male you feel good...

We have visited many times and have always received a good value for money meal. Firstly the staff are very effective and efficient. You receive a warm welcome and are shown to a table and they’re always ready to help and accommodate you if you need it particularly if you have a disability or small children. The beverages are served almost instantly and the hot food comes out fairly quickly afterwards. Yes, the hot food is hot and not warm as in some establishments.

Just off the high street this is a good find. An independant coffee shop with food as well. You won't need to walk far to the shops, they are all around !!

Went down to Cheltenham races with my friends for the weekend. We were their 3 nights and ate in Spencers every night. Staff are nice and friendly, food is very good. Prices are excellent and the portions are more than generous. I would recommend stopping in here for something to eat if you are visiting Cheltenham.
