I went there to have a steak with chips. Turned up to be a nice place to have a dinner at. Good atmosphere, filling and tasty food. It was noticeable how waiters tried their best to make a good impression. Overall, this place is recommended, although, you need to be aware of reasonable prices and need of some time to get food cooked. Not a quiet place sometimes which is worth mentioning.
The best Sunday lunch I’ve had in ages. Rare beef, crispy roast potatoes and all the rest to go with it. Superb. Also the charcuterie platter was about the best it can get. Lovely chilled atmosphere and great service. Will become a regular part of our eating out.
Brilliant from start to finish. A friend and client recommended No.3 after going for breakfast and after showing me a picture of his plate I was sold. Went on a Sunday with no intention of having a roast dinner but couldn’t be happier with my choice, had the burnt aubergine dip to share and a pork belly roast for the main, while my girlfriend had the nut roast.
The service was perfect, welcomed wholeheartedly from the moment we walked down the stairs, I believe it was Hugo who greeted my girlfriend and I, he was extremely accommodating to our request to eat in the courtyard (too nice a day to be sat inside). He gave us advice on the menu and portion sizes, which was invaluable to avoid over ordering, as the portions are hearty but not too much.
Totally impressed by the food, staff, service, location and general feel of No.3, I have been raving to friends since leaving.
Service has been good given only 2 members of staff. Overall, it's not what you would expect for an establishment of this reputation. I asked for my steak medium to medium rare. It was medium rare at a push. My husband had a fillet that he really liked. The burnt aubergine starter was lovely and generous. The worst bit was the dessert - the cheapest glass you can get in a warehouse. I'd expect better. I would come again to see if it was just tonight as I feel it was on off night and expectations too high.

Nice spot for Saturday dinner while in Cheltenham.
Solid all around with some standouts, notably the “Spice and stormy”, probably the best take I’ve seen on. Twist on the classic Bermudan “Dark and Stormy”
We went to this restaurant in October 22. It had been on our list of places to try and so we went along on a Sunday afternoon.
We booked for 6 people, which one was a newborn.
It is a little awkward getting the pram down the stairs at the entrance but other than that it was easy.
The Sunday roast was amazing and we had 2 vegetarians who enjoyed the nut roast.
All of the staff were very welcoming and chatty, especially with our son.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be returning in the future
Delicious food, we had some sharing plates, they were all presented beautifully and so delicious. The staff were all so friendly and attentive, without being too much. We sat in the garden with our toddler, it was so relaxing and lovely to have the garden for children. A really relaxing pub and we cannot wait for the restaurant to open!
The food was incredible, The staff were very friendly and helpfull.
Delicious restaurant in Cheltenham. Went for a combination of starters. Particularly loved the tapas Pork Belly, wow amazing
. Opted for the vegetarian main which was packed full of flavour. My highlight was the dessert it was absolute perfection, the chocolate fondant wow! Can I just say as well the restaurant manager Elliot was just fabulous, I would go back just to be served by him again, his knowledge and charisma was unlike any other service. When I next go to Cheltenham I will back would love to try breakfast and lunch options.
6 of us ate here last Saturday. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff (thank you Danny!) and delicious food. Loved the Burrata salad, arancini and ploughman's. Nicest meal we've had for a long time and we are looking forward to returning soon. Highly recommend and so pleased there's a decent restaurant we can walk to!
We were so lucky to find this gem while we were having a short lunch break in the middle of our long drive back from holiday. Absolutely amazing food and service. Everything was so yummy and we were constantly wow-ing. It’s such a great vibe in the restaurant. It will be a bit of a drive for us but we will 100% be back to have the food again!!
We spent a long weekend in Cheltenham and this restaurant was number 1 on the list for us to try and it didn't disappoint! The food was amazing - especially the tomahawk steak to share. The service was faultless and they were very accommodating to us with our two month old daughter and pram! Would highly recommend!
We had a very enjoyable Sunday lunch at No.3 - delicious roast and accompaniments, friendly service and very welcoming to our 4-year-old. While the grown-ups had traditional roasts from the menu, we were told that they rather than a kids' menu, they would make what we asked from what they had in the kitchen - in our case, sausages, chips and beans. We all, therefore, had exactly what we wanted!
Service was excellent from start to finish. Starters were amazing, I thought overpriced when reading the menu but they were worth it upon tasting.
The ribeye main was a perfect size but not the best quality. It was like the meat was not beaten or possibly cooked direct from the fridge instead of at room temp as it was very tough. It was cooked medium rare as requested but a very tough cut; more like rump rather than ribeye. That did let the meal down as we both ordered ribeye. With hindsight I would have ordered the tomahawk between us but at £75, when a tomahawk from my local butcher is £30, I thought was unreasonable (since fries and sauce are an additional charge).
House red wine was great. My only improvement suggestion would be to source higher quality meat; there is plenty available locally.
11 of us ate here for my Mother in law's significant birthday! Really fantastic, the service was attentive without being overly so, the food was superb and a lovely time was had!
Amazing meal here at No3, from the warm welcome and friendly staff to the delicious food.
The wild mushroom aranchini were excellent. Crispy on the outside but slightly gooey inside. The ham hock terrine and piccalilli was very tasty. Nduja cod with BBQ octopus was stunning, full of flavour and perfect cooked. Ribeye steak again perfectly cooked and delicious. Crispy pork belly was spicy, sticky, crispy and very enjoyable.
All in all an excellent meal.
Best meal of the weekend at this restaurant. We had scallops, aracini balls and steak tataki to start- the steak was a standout and absolutely delicious, as were all of the other starters.
We had cod and beef cheeks as a main, both again very well done. The wait staff were also super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and area, giving us good cocktail and food recommendations.
One of the best restaurants in the area! Came to enjoy steak night and the new location. Food and service were absolutely fantastic!
Amazing food and excellent service. Everything our table ordered was delicious. Will definitely be returning!
