The Lansdown in Cheltenham

lovely pub, great food. attentive staff!!

Stopped in for lunch. Their daily lunch menu is a comfortable mix of pub food and food to match a mre eclectic taste. The staff were great, friendly and attenttive. Was here for an hour and will definitely go back.

Great place to enjoy a meal and a few beers. Good atmosphere for sport and a relaxing garden when it’s sunny. Nice friendly staff. A great c selection of small plates, the best Karaage Chicken!

been here a few times now for food and to watch the football, staff are always lovely and very helpful, and great atmosphere to watch the football, will definitely come back !

Unfortunately terrible food. Christmas dinner was barely edible..luke warm, horribly dry, tasted like a terrible frozen then microwaved roast dinner..only able to afford treats like going out for dinner because of blue light discount ❤️ was a really disappointing meal that spoilt the treat.

Lovely staff particularly Grace such a lovely and diligent lady. Food was amazing especially whilst watching the sport. Definitely will visit again strongly recommend.

Fantastic pub with great food and really friendly, efficient staff! Thank you very much!

Good pub, loads of telly's for sport lovers, good selection of craft beer,good reliable food offering

Dis not eat on this occasion, but food is usually excellent,staff friendly

Had a works reunion drinks. Good variety of drinks, good service and nice and spacious. Can't comment on food as didn't eat. Parking not great, but street parking available.

Nice location and atmosphere. Lovely food and staff are very kind and helpful. Great pub for family lunch or drinks with friends. Will definitely visit again.

Good pub, but looking a little tired. Seems to attract a few winos outside. Good for watching sports and pretty comfortable inside.

Start with the only negative to end with the positives. The only issue I had when visiting The Lansdown was the toilet. The cubicle in the male toilet does not have a working lock, other than that, the toilets are your standard pub toilets. Visited for the first time today, to watch the football and have a meal with a good friend. Food was fantastic, I would HIGHLY recommend the Korean BBQ chicken wing sharer and the battered halloumi and pulled beef croquet small plates, followed by the sticky toffee pudding! Service was fantastic, bar staff always smiling and someone I assume to be the manager/landlord present and interested in the customers. Plenty of screens to watch the sports on, two games shown tonight and pub ‘split’ in two to facilitate both matches, but didn’t feel divided. Outdoor area with a good amount of heaters to keep you warm when outside smoking. Also noticed wheelchair lift to aid wheelchair accessibility due to entrance being lower than pavement. All in all, lovely place to eat, drink watch your favourite sport and socialise.

Great atmosphere staff are all lovely

Nice and tidy pub to visit not far from train station. Shows all sports and staff are really accommodating, menu has definitely improved with more gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options available. Friendly atmosphere and drinks are fair priced. Will be back for future football matches

Amazing pub great atmosphere and lovely food

Great place to stop for a bite to eat or even just a drink. Large selection of non alcoholic and alcoholic drinks, all reasonably priced too! Food has always been super and menu has a nice variety. Lovely garden for these warm summer evenings, staff are all fab, polite, attentive and friendly. Best of all while pub is dog friendly and staff are super happy to welcome dogs ☺️ will be back! Everything you could ask for at this place! 5 ⭐️

The pub is very important for Cheltonians because of the location, excellent garden & sports bar feel however it needs a fair bit of investment to bring a shine to the place. It is very tired. Guinness & Gin were fairly priced and very nice too.

First class food and service. Great place to watch sport

Stopped here on the way back to the train station. Staff were attentive and the food came out quickly and was also cleared up promptly. Good experience!

This is a green king pub, but it has a higher standard with better food than the other Green King pubs I've been to. We had a great meal, and the service was great. The garden is large with plenty of seating. We only gave it a 4 because the parking lot is very tiny and the garden is next to a very busy street so it's noisy. FYI, they give 15% for our hard-working blue light members. 😀

Shame, has the potential to be a buzzing busy pub but unfortunately needs some direction . Has lift for wheelchairs etc to be able to get to the bar and a good selection of ciders.

A great pub. We had lunch in the garden, big portions and very tasty. Staff were helpful and friendly

Great sports pub in Cheltenham plenty of seats available for sports lovers and non sport lovers. A incredible large garden perfect for the summer and sun lovers

I was in Cheltenham visiting friends for the day and we went To the lansdown for lunch. I was very pleasantly surprised with the amount of gluten free options available. The food was very nice, bar staff were very helpful. Would visit again. Another great experience today at the Lansdown

Great spot for sport, very friendly and attentive staff

Great pub, close to the station and a nice garden area. Staff were very welcoming for our first trip to Cheltenham!

This is my second review for the Lansdown, as I wanted to share how well managed it has been throughout the recent Euro tournament. The whole pub was full to capacity inside and out, with a lively and excited crowd. The manager and staff team should be congratulated on the superb way in which they managed to create an amazing atmosphere, which also felt safe and welcoming at all times. There was an inevitable and unavoidable wait for drinks but they had extra staff brought in, and each of them was friendly and smiling despite the pressure. I cannot speak highly enough of them all. Fantastic team. Thank you so much, and we will see you very soon x

Classic sports bar with a great atmosphere, dog-friendly and has a decent choice for drinks and food!

Once again, very splendid, great staff, would recommend👌

What a great place to catch up with friends! The atmosphere for the footie is unbelievable

Had such a lovely time at The Lansdown thanks to the service of Arta, so kind and helpful, a real asset to your company! Will definitely be back, thank you!

Fab place to eat and watch your favourite sport

The food menu is very bland, nice pie and mash however.

This was out first visit to a Greene King pub and will be our last. Ordered half chicken roast dinner for two, no stuffing, pink chicken, large plate filled with a Yorkshire and two pots of gravy. Chicken pale and tasteless, roast potatoes pale and greasy, undercooked carrots and a measly portion of cabbage. On offering feedback offered free drink but refused, a bad meal is a bad meal cannoned bought off with a free drink.

What a great pub! Plenty of TVs for the football, great food and amazing beer selection! Cheers to the team for making it a great night!!!!!

Very inviting pub with great choices

Had a great day out at the lansdown. The staff went above and beyond for me and the family. Can’t wait to go back!

Great pub lovely and friendly team very welcoming and great experience nice to see they are advertising in house for euros too booking my table asap

Went to watch the football with friends in the huge garden! Ordered food and the drinks and food arrived very quick! Great atmosphere!

Garbage. Toilets are a bombsite and the prices are ridiculously high. Wait staff carry a permanent long face and seem to take umbrage with any request to be served. Only go there under durress..

Lovely outside space in which to enjoy a nice cold pint of cider.

Great pub in Cheltenham, handy for a quick bite to eat before getting the train! Can imagine the garden is very popular in the summer! Had a lovely pint of moretti and a steak and ale pie, would highly recommend!!!

Food and drink were lovely, staff too. The place itself though is worn out and in need of lots of repair/refurb

Great place to meet up for drinks and food

Great food in this gaff. Beer aint too bad either

Great venue. Good quality pub meals. Friendly and helpful staff.

One of the best beer gardens in Cheltenham! Perfect place to sit and relax with a drink in the sun. Great food and always welcoming staff

Amazing pub and great staff, Lily was especially personable and helpful!

Great pub perfect for a bite to eat, watching sport and enjoying a few drinks

Has a huge sunny garden, perfect for summer drinks and lots of big screens inside great for watching sport with your mates all year round. Staff are always friendly and welcoming too. Great place! 👍

Excellent drinks, great service, lovely beer garden. Overall a great well run pub with lovely staff

Absolutely love this place- friendliest and best bar staff, and best pub food in the area. Not only the only place to watch live sports, but also a lovely friendly environment for family lunches and sunny days outside.

Great to watch the football, great atmosphere and great food and service!!

Lovely place with super friendly staff!

Great pub! Love coming here the atmosphere is great, the food is really good and the team are all so lovely and welcoming! Always a great experience at the Lansdown! 😃

What can I say about the Lansdown? Food great, service great, staff great. No matter where I go in Cheltenham I always end up here at some point, it's my go to place. Although it's a sports pub it's a very diverse establishment with a wide range of clientele. I do enjoy a pint while watching the sport but equally visit with family or my partner for a quiet drink. They also make a real effort during major sporting events (racing or big tournaments). I can only say, keep doing what you're all doing and thank you 👍

The Lansdown is cheltenhams hidden gem. Loads of parking, good food and lots of sport to watch if that is your thing. We were welcomed by super helpful staff which made the experience a delight. Great pub, great atmosphere and great staff. Win win win !

Great place to get food and drinks - close to the train station! Amazing selection of spirits on bar and a lovely garden to enjoy the sun. Dog friendly inside and out!

Second or third visit to the Lansdown. Everyone pleasant, great food and drinks plus the footi was on!

Great pub on the way Into town, good selection of beers and tasty food. Definitely worth a visit.

My favourite local pub and great for sports. Has a fantastic beer garden and amazing staff! Dog friendly.

Great pub lovely staff cannot wait to visit again

Visited many times, do a good Guinness and the usual Green King favourites. Great place to go on race week.

Excellent Sunday lunch, and service

The service was good, but the place is quite dirty. The food was alright but did take a long time to arrive. A lot of menu items were also not available.

staff were wonderful and helpful and the food was spot on!

Staff very accommodating and great pints

Went here for a full English breakfast yesterday What a disappointment The scrambled eggs was barely a table spoons worth The sausage was hard as if it had been cooked twice The toast was only toasted one side and the butter was a cheap margarine And to top that off we ordered 3 breakfasts but only two were delivered to our table and we had to wait 15 minutes for the other one to arrive Never going there again

Great place! Great staff very accommodating and great beer

Great place to get a pint and watch the football

Went in with my brother as a treat for him he is 18 has SN I purchased the Groupon deal. I was disappointed as they told me they don’t accept it even though when I purchased it I looked on the website and it said they accept it for here. I paid out of my pocket which is fine but don’t advertise it when they don’t give it we had a lovely time and good food

Brilliant food and service throughout

Great atmosphere at the Lansdown and very nice and welcoming staff too! Food was spot on and was delivered at a good pace. Would recommend to any of the locals or anyone passing by!

Excellent service, wonderful staff who will adjust your drink the way you like it if you ask. Incredible spirit choice...also colour coordinated which is lush and needed because they have soooooo much choice. Heaters that work for those who smoke or just want to outside in the cold and you won't be cold, trust me. Plenty of places to choose to either socialise or hide away. Genuinely could not recommend this venue more highly, ticks all my boxes. Best staff I've had the pleasure of dealing with.

Great pub for a catch up with friends, always have a good time chatting with the staff! Excellent garden out the front too, perfect for dogs! The food is quick and tasty. Great selection of beer too

Great pub on the outskirts of town, great if you want to watch the game with a good pint. Bar is reasonably priced and the food is great value for money. Would highly recommend!

Nothing bad, but nothing to write home about. Xmas dinner with pals - food was better in my works canteen... but it was ok.

A nice place to sit and enjoy lunch in the garden. We enjoyed the food, lovely BBQ chicken.The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was busy but we were very well looked after! We will definitely come back!

Wasn’t a great fan of the mulled cider served.

What a great gem! Thoroughly enjoyed our visit after some Christmas shopping in Cheltenham. Great atmosphere, good food and great sports venue. Will definitely return when next visiting town!

Didn't have food but a lovely place to enjoy and relax.

Enjoyed my meal fast service friendly staff nothing was to much trouble will definitely return.....

Had a great time here yesterday. The food was delicious and didnt take too long to arrive to our table. Amazing customer service and generally a lovely place to spend the evening with friends and family

Great pub Best sports place closest to station

Great location, 15 minute walk from train station if you’re coming in or going out of Cheltenham. Great variety of alcohol free as well as a wide selection of lagers, ciders and ales. Amazing dishes on their menu, Katsu burger and Steak & Ale pie (there’s a trend going on here) were a dream. Perfect for the cold nights coming up🥰 also managed to catch the game when we went too! What more could you ask for?

Enjoyed the choice of ales and ciders. Good atmosphere when the football was on. Friendly staff and a good burger was had.

Rude young brunette waitress served me today at the downstairs bar. Semi agressive attitude.

Good pub to hang out with friends. Screening of games on large screens almost on every wall. Great food. Can get very noisy on game nights

I only went to the pub which is nice

Nice pub with good beers and pub grub. Landlord friendly as is the staff. Large sitting out area and covered tv spot. However it's time for a decorate I think.

Nice local pub. Good atmosphere. Super tasty food. Good cider. Went there 3 times in a 5 day vacation.

Lovely pub, friendly staff & beautiful garden

We didn't stay here, just stopped off for a few drinks. Great selection of drinks, nice friendly service. A very nice beer garden was a bonus because the sun was shining. Nice pub.

Absoloutly fantastic local pub, staff very friendly with superb customer service. Great Menu with very delicous food never had a problem. Great garden area to sit and enjoy with plenty of room and also plenty of space to sit indoors too. The pub dogs Bertie and Bear are very loving and love a good fuss make sure you say hello.

Went on Saturday lunchtime, of the bank holiday weekend having prebooked for a table of four adults and two children. The dining area is full of TV screens playing football so potentially a poor choice of venue to start with. After being seated, we were not advised that there was no table service and only realised this when we made our way to the bar to order drinks. We then chose our food and went to the bar to order, only to find out they had run out of most of the menu items, including Fish and Chips, BBQ Chicken, Steak and Ale Pie and several of the sharing plates. Given that it was only the Saturday lunchtime of a bank holiday weekend, this was very poor and was made far worse by the fact they didn't advise us of this when we were seated so we had to scramble to figure out what we could order from what they had left. Once ordered, the food took over 45 minutes to arrive, during which time the toddler in our group had become very restless and upset and had to be calmed down with snacks, meaning they didn't manage to eat much of their meal. The food was not great quality and several of the dishes were cold. The staff came across as very apathetic and unwilling to do much to rectify the situation. We were planning on holding an event in their function room but may have to have a rethink following this visit.

Large pub, in need of a refurbishment. Close to the prom, easy walk and central to bus routes. Staff pretty good. Loos were sooo not good, need a clean and work. Lots of seating inside and out and food was pretty good but seating really stained and such a beautiful building but needs money spent to make it a fab venue.

I had cod and chips to much batter and the fish was over cooked

Good place to come and watch sport with a great selection of gins! The menu is also vegetarian/vegan friendly, will come again

One of the best pubs on my road trip through England, so many delicious beers plus the food menu and service is such a high quality. See you on my next trip.
