This Free House was run for over 130 years by the Cheshire family. This single bar pub is now run by young management, keen to keep the pub traditional. Clientele is mixed, but the younger element is being encouraged. Food menu changes over time but currently sausage rolls and pukka pies. They have FREE food, pizza, curry or cheeseboard on Tuesdays and Fridays. Music is kept to a background level, generally from music TV but may rise on a Friday or Saturday evening. Often busy, the atmosphere is always warm. Etched and stained glass windows help to promote the traditional feel of the pub. Ideal base for visiting Cheltenham Town Hall and the Cricket Festival at the nearby Cheltenham College held in July. 5 handpumps are now on but generally 2 are Doom Bar and 2 are a Wye Valley HPA/Butty Bach plus their own branded Tavern Tipple, 3.8% believed to be from Wye Valley.
