The March Hare in Gloucester

What a nice cafe! Very good location on a nice street with old trees, quiet here and peaceful...Staff is amazing, kind, cakes homemade, not dear - just what u need on a lazy afternoon after a dentist appointment!✌️

Staff were lovely and it was a really nice small venue to go have a cup of coffee!

Popped in for a breakfast, good quality reasonably priced and very friendly service, recommended

Possibly one of the best cafe / light lunch spots that I've visited. The food was a real step up from the usual cafes and worth every penny. The staff were friendly and not scared to spend time, have a chat and that 'get to know each other a bit' without being smothering. My gorgeous wife had the quiche, which was apparently hand made. The pastry was beautifully crumbly and the flavour of the fillings amazing with a nice balance. I opted for soup and a sandwich, but what soup and what sandwich they were. Carrot and Coriander soup restored from years of mediocrity; the sandwich served up in nice brown bread it was both filling and delicious. Almost forgot the coffees, which I presume (for once I didn't ask) were roasted specially somewhere by someone suitably sympathetic to the beans. The young woman that served us had taken a nasty looking finger injury playing rugby. In true rugby style, she was soldiering on. I hope she gets well really soon. At the risk of sounding gammonesque (is that a word?), she was a walking lesson in politeness and work ethic many young people should aspire to.

Everything is just right at the March Hare. Great menu, everything spotlessly clean, with a very interesting menu, and served by personable, helpful staff. We have eaten here many times, it is so good, and friendly, and is tightly managed.

Absolutely amazing service and food was lovely. They accommodated two mummies and two prams without missing a beat ❤️ so grateful to the staff for making mine and my LGs first lunch out in town so great ❤️😊 and for just over a tenner for a sandwich, side boat (so cute), crisps and a drink it's good value ❤️

We were passing through and wanted a light lunch. Upon entering we were greeted by nice friendly and very welcoming staff. A menu was promptly provided and orders taken. The food was quickly delivered and was presented well. A slight tweak to the menu was no trouble, to accommodate me as a vegetarian. My wife went for the soup with a hot sausage sandwich and I had the ploughman's. Each was a generous portion. We also has some of the home made cakes which were yummy. It seemed very good value, we would definitely return if in the area again.

Great food and drink. Great atmosphere. Great service and fantastic management and staff. I will highly recommend this place.

Marvellous cafe, great service, lovely late breakfast and good coffee. The staff are brilliant, and the atmosphere friendly and hospitable.

Popped in today for a coffee and a light lunch with my sister. Brilliant service, lunch was amazing. Lovely and friendly staff. Would 100% recommend.

Great service,good food ,best place in town.

Had lunch in here today. The cafe was spotlessly clean. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely nice little cafe. Great scones and cake. Popped in while passing and had a warm friendly welcome.

Brian kindly arranged an afternoon tea for my mothers birthday, it was her first ever one and she was so excited with the surprise. When ordering they asked what sandwiches we prefer instead of a fixed selection, which we appreciated as my nan is quite fussy and what cakes and scone types to go with the hot drink or our choosing ..All the staff were welcoming and friendly and the place was cosy. Thank you for a memorable afternoon tea and thank you for saving the last teacake! Cheers!

This place is fantastic. On our first visit for breakfast, the staff(Luke and the owner) were kind. We had caramel lattes and a delicious breakfast. It was such a pleasant experience, we came every morning on our trip.

Another beautiful afternoon tea. Excellent value and lovely friendly staff.

V strong Silverskins, Mari no cope with that. Nice Ploughman's n apple juice. Luke is a gem.

We ordered two of the gourmet afternoon teas for delivery and couldn't of asked for a better service from beginning to end . Customer service was amazing , needed gluten free which can sometimes be an issue but not at all here , delivery was exactly when expected it and best of all the food was delicious

We had our dog with us having been in the Forest of Dean, Jamaica Blue would not allow us to dine, so walked round to The March Hare. The proprietor immediately brought out a bowl of water and made a fuss of our dog and then fetched her some chicken out. The lunch was outstanding and very moderately priced. Lovely friendly staff.

Nice quiet little cafe with friendly staff and good range of food and drink choices. Afternoon tea was delightful, tasty soft sandwiches and delicious homemade cake. Highly recommend!

Great quality food, genuinely friendly and efficient service, where there was a sense the staff really wanted you to be happy. Lovely ambience. Exceptional value for money. Really lovely experience.

Lovely staff,and a great place to meet and people watch

Very nice and friendly coffee is amazing

This is a lovely cafe with the warmest of welcomes. The lady who greeted us couldn’t do enough to find us a seat. The sandwiches are huge and delicious. I had the egg mayo. And £1 for a slice of cake? Yes please! I’ll be back.

Great coffee, great food, great service and the flowers are nice too.

We came for a baby shower afternoon tea with 20 of us. I highly recommend this venue and would like to thank Brian and his staff for making this an event to remember. Excellent service and the food was delicious. If you're looking for a family event, please consider here. You won't be disappointed.

Food always freshly cooked, excellent coffee and such a relaxing atmosphere

A great little spot for a spot of lunch. Danni served us and was very attentive. The food and drinks were great and we even squeezed in some desert on Danni’s recommendation

A lovely place in the heart of community.

Staff are lovely. Teacakes are really tasty with lots of butter. GREAT deal of £4.25 for teacake and hot drink before 11:30. Would highly recommended!

By far the best cafe in Gloucester, go there with my children regularly and we are all made to feel very welcome!

Fabulous afternoon tea. Delicious sandwiches and homemade cakes at a very reasonable price. The staff are so friendly - it is a real gem. Worth booking if you are a group - you will not be disappointed. We are coming back for another afternoon tea AND to try breakfast and lunch!

Lovely lunch with lovely staff. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Great place good atmosphere great food good friendly staff The place to go

I usually eat here when in Gloucester and highly recommend this place. Had my friend visiting from Holland today and she was very impressed with her quiche and we both agreed that the apple pie and cream was one of the best we've tasted. Excellent and friendly service and many thanks to the young lady (sorry I didn't catch her name) who took some photos for me, hope to see you again soon! 😁

We went for afternoon tea and it was excellent. The staff were very helpful, and the service was excellent, thanks to Luke and Amber...😊

I come here every time I’m in Gloucester, but not just for the coffee (you’ll struggle to find better), rather for the friendly, attentive service provided by Brian, Luke, Amber and team - nothing is too much trouble for them. All for a very reasonable price too! Places like this are singlehandedly keeping our high streets going, so go on down and support your local independent cafe!

Lovely atmosphere great food and coffee. I would have given it a 5 if it hadn’t been for a strange rule that we both had to have a drink and a food item. I was peckish, but, the wife only wanted a coffee; she ended up with a toasted tea cake.

Independently owned. Central location (opp defunct Debenhams, soon to be University of Glos). Inside and outside seating. Good range of meals/snacks across the day which (if hot) is cooked to order. Cakes made locally and coffee is roasted and blended locally too. Fresh flowers on all tables. Spotlessly clean in the cafe and loo. We had jacket potato and cheese which came with coleslaw and side salad. Jacket was piping hot and cooked thru. Drinks included in price. We were offered ‘pudding’ (slice of cake or ice cream tub @ £1 each). Food is good value for money. Staff were excellent - polite, chatty and helpful and checked all was OK. Service was also excellent. Will definitely visit again and have no hesitation in recommending.

Just stopped by for a coffee and t cake never been here before and was pleasantly surprised to have such a lovely inexpensive coffee and t cake . Would love to try a lunch . It's so nice to find a cafe that is so good and cares about its customers. Thank you

Staff can't do enough for you. A busy Saturday lunchtime is not the best time for atmosphere (too many people in A hurry). My sandwich was very fresh granary bread (filled to capacity!) and most enjoyable

Sadly, although service was excellent and in fact, the cafe seemed to be over staffed as two members of staff arrived at the table with a single tray, the food was poor value for money, avoid.

Popped in for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised! Good food, good tea and coffee, helpful staff and an atmosphere that just feels so cosy. They obviously have their regulars which was good to see. Place was busy, always a good sign. Happily come back 💕

Great welcome, service and food; particularly good and fuss-free for gluten and dairy-free options. Excellent value for money, especially with a 15% discount for prior booking.

Great food and value. Service was top notch. Thank you to Hannah, Amber and Luke .

Lovely little independent cafe.

Nice little stop off .... enjoyed

The quiche was great and so was the service :)

Nice greeting apon entering, quick service, and great food for my mid morning, bacon roll and green tea. It is an excellent coffee shop, with eager staff and nice atmosphere.

Good quality food, homemade cakes lovely staff.

Always fresh food. Excellent service.

The March hare is by far the best independent coffee/ tea shop in Gloucester . We love it there and keep going back. Great food , good quality , freshly cooked and the staff are always welcoming and friendly . When you find a little gem of a place like here you keep going back . I highly recommend the cooked English breakfast which is great value and tastes amazing ( you can tell the good quality ingredients ) and if you like a good cuppa they use premium teabags not the cheap ones . Give it a try , book online and you also get a good discount too . Highly recommended.

A big thank you to the team at the March Hair. They feed me a few times a week, and the quality and preparation of food is significant higher that what you'd expect for the price. Also, the team are very friendly, giving a family feel to the experience of simply picking up a delicious takeaway bag meal. Luke is on point with his sandwiches!

Lovely breakfast served by smiling welcoming staff .. Convenient location . The owner was working there on my visit and he was charming and helpful

A lovely place to have a great coffee ☕ and a slice of cake 🍰 the staff are very polite and friendly with a good customer service. I highly recommend the march hare.

While spending a day in Gloucester my husband and ai we're ready for a hot drink and some cake, the March Hare was recommended to us by a member of staff in a shop nearby to the cafe. Lovely selection of cakes, good tea and coffee, lovely feel to the cafe, nice decor. The staff are amazing and so friendly. Highly recommend visiting this cafe if you're spending time in Gloucester.

Excellent coffee and cake, Allday breakfast and many others with excellent service by dedicated staff

Excellent little café. Attentive service and tasty food. Breakfast for two £14.

We stopped in here to have a bite to eat after a long day of driving. The food and service were exceptional. The two young staff members were attentive, friendly and extremely welcoming. Service was fast and product knowledge was brilliant. Once the food arrived it was really great too. Freshly made and full of flavour. The menu was extensive and lots of options for us. The whole meal was excellent value for money and I would highly recommend this little tea room to anyone passing by.

Wonderful lunch with excellent service. Tasty homemade cakes. We really enjoyed our visit and will be back.

Wow what an amazing place! 😊 The lunch deal is a fantastic value! The staff go over and above to cater for all needs. It feels a totally inclusive safe place. Thank you 😊

Always a pleasure to come into the March Hare .Lovely staff and excellent food

Such a lovely afternoon tea. Kind and attentive service. All at a reasonable price. Highly recommended

Wonderful Service, great coffee and very attentive staff and management, my favourite place to refresh in Gloucester

Following positive recommendations we visited for a lunch as group of three. The welcome was very warm and hospitable and the venue ,food and service were second to none . We will certainly return ! Well done !!

We went for afternoon tea just before mother's day, and really enjoyed. There was a delicious selection of sandwiches, scones and cakes, all very fresh, and ample tea and coffee. We'd definitely go again and would really recommend it.

What a lovely.find, relaxed atmosphere, excellent service far better than corporate coffee shops

Perfect place for lunch. Sandwich deal of a freshly made sandwich, generous portion of fresh salad and crisps, drink and a piece of cake for under £10. Our favourite lunch stop in Gloucester. Great art on the walls, super clean tables, lovely waiting staff.

3 of us booked in for afternoon tea today and it was an absolute delight! Excellent value and the service was brilliant, so friendly and welcoming ☺️

Went there as a small group of 4 for lunch. I must say was well impressed. The service was great, polite and quick. The food we ordered arrived pipping hot and a large portion size. So much so I could not eat it all. Then...

Wonderful independant tea/coffee/breakfast/lunch place in the very center of Gloucester Went there two times in less than 24hr ! My scone with clotted cream & jam was delicious. My porridge was super tasty. Tea was perfect. Friendly vibes, lovely staff, great music... It feels warm and confy to see all the regular customers come and go here... I highly recommend !

Fantastic bacon sandwich, and staff.

Stumbled across this lovely place today. Attentive staff and lovely food. We will definitely be back

Friendly, helpful service; great breakfast including juice and coffee for £10. Aware of regular customers coming in and being greeted by name. Small, intimate.

Arrived just as they were closing but offered a takeaway and a chair whilst they cleaned. Chatty and cheery. Would definitely recommend.

Great food great staff and lovely atmosphere. Had a stunning meal followed by home made pudding and coffee. Nothing was to much trouble had a brilliant experience highly recommended. I sat in but I now know they do take away menu aswell. Thanks team for lovely meal.

Fantastic friendly and efficient staff and food was really nice. Had jacket potato.. will definitely support this place

Great place close to the train station. Stopped twice while passing through Gloucester! Friendly, helpful staff and tasty breakfast. (Great playlist:)

My two-year-old daughter and I had a lovely lunch here yesterday. It's a nice, clean cafe with excellent food. The staff were exceptionally friendly and very thoughtful.

Nipped in for a drink and some cake with my children after a day exploring Gloucester. Friendly service and lovely cakes. We'll most certainly be back soon.

Came here for a catch up with a former colleague. Service was swift and friendly. We really enjoyed our cakes. I also recommend the picnic bag lunch deal, where you get a freshly made sandwich, bag of crisps, cold drink and slice of cake for...

Very disappointing customer service. Would like to give zero stars as staff wouldn't let us sit indoors and order 2 hot drinks. We were offered the noisy outdoor street tables. We were told that as they were 'independent' they needed the tables for customers ordering...

I loved this coffee shop. He made the most fantastic dirty chi lattee. And we had toasted buns. 😋.

A nice independent place right in Gloucester's heart... Had a lovely breakfast and tea served by friendly staff! Will surely be back in my future trips in the area!

Always a pleasure to visit. The staff are friendly and welcoming to all. We really look forward to our time here and the food is fantastic(most created on premises).

Lovely to see an independent business in the city centre. Friendly, efficient service with a smile. Variety of choices, reasonably priced. Great decor and safe environment. Will definitely return.

We’re recommended this place by a local tourist guide. Unfortunately we only wanted tea & coffee as the scones looked delicious. Very pleasant & attentive service & my husband who is very fussy with his flat white coffee said it was excellent which is most...

This was an amazing find not far from the cathedral. I opted for the £9-95 deal and what a deal. There was a big bowl of chunky delicious tomato and basil soup. This was followed by one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten....

We had the lunch time special - great value for long lazy catch up lunch. A main (sandwich salad ploughman’s or soup) cake and a drink for fixed price. I went for ploughman’s rocky road cake and tea. Sister opted for tuna mayo sandwich (which...

At the March Hare now in Gloucester and honestly they couldn't be more accomodating! First we opted to sit outside and have the afternoon tea, however they told us the seagulls were very aggressive and asked if we wanted to sit inside which we did....

Very friendly staff. Good menu. Well presented fresh food.Reasonable prices.Worth visiting.Highly recommended

Had lunch at the March Hare in July. Had a lovely/large Ploughmans lunch and Latte Coffee, my wife had the Quiche, both were very nice and filling. Witin the deal was a coffee and cake. We were so full that we took the cakes away...

Arriving early at March Hare, I ordered two Americano coffees, both for myself. The coffee was so good there that after one sip, I exclaimed, “That is good coffee.” The owner explained a special relation with a local coffee bean roaster. Although I liked a...

This is a very pleasant cafe with helpful staff. Our dog was very spoilt by the staff being given a bowl of water and some chicken! The ploughman's lunches were extremely good with heaps of cheese and salad. I loved the way you also got...

Best coffee and best staff in town.

Friendly staff. I always go for locally owned did and not your commercial ones. Coffee was refreshing and hot.

This was a lovely find on my lunch break. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. I’ve not tried the food yet but the coffee was delicious.

My partner treated me to lunch out and we decided to try out the food here. I regularly get my morning coffee here on my way into work at Bonmarche’ but hadn’t yet tried their food. We both had the ploughman’s lunch and they were...
