   Noise level from large group of young women was unacceptable on a table close to us. Before they were served their food it was impossible to have a normal conversation across our table. To complain at the time causes unpleasant atmosphere which we didn’t want. Not something we have encountered before on our many family visits to the Ivy.

   Outstanding in every way. Food divine, service incredibly attentive, friendly staff - nothing too much trouble. They made us feel really special when we said we were there to celebrate getting married a few weeks ago. Thank you, we’ll be back!

    The staff were amazing from greeting to service nothing was too much trouble, so attentive and extra special touch at the end of the tea for my daughter as it was her birthday, Although I thought the drinks were over priced, you are paying for the experience and this seems to be a trend now of over priced drinks in higher end drinking locations in Cheltenham. If I had the opportunity to return on a special occasion I would but it would not be a regular location just for a treat 😊

    Eating at the Ivy is a wonderful experience. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, or just having a meal out for a change, this place makes it special. The staff are so friendly and professional, and are never too fussing. We had a superb meal, and felt so looked after, by our lovely waitress and cocktail waiter. The food is absolutely lovely, so many different tastes on one plate. I had the monkfish and prawn curry and I was not disappointed, it was really good. We had to have a desert and that was great too. Altogether a great time, and one we will repeat as soon as we can.

    I had to amend my online booking on the morning of our visit and they knew all about it at the restaurant. The staff were friendly and attentive - we had our 18 month old granddaughter with us and they couldn’t have done enough for us. Food was delicious and surroundings were fabulous!

    We went for a lunch for a family birthday celebration, 10 of us including 3 young children. We had a fabulous time, delicious food, lovely atmosphere, beautiful building and the most friendly service. Claude looked after us so well, was brilliant with the kids and made our celebrations feel extra special- thank you!

    Always a nice welcome! Then the lady who took us to our table was efficient but when I asked if breakfast was still on at 11.05 she said no as they only do it till 11am. I was surprised as I said I thought it was up to 11.30 as I had come in the past but she was adamant and gave us a lunch menu. I was late by 3mins as was held up in traffic and would have been there just before 11am. We were considering leaving as we wanted breakfast but a Waiter passed our table, so I asked again, if they could do breakfast and he was most helpful and we put in our order straight away and had a lovely breakfast with drinks. So even if we were in the wrong with the time that is fine and I would have accepted it but I felt the lady did not try and find out and be more obliging, so am glad I spoke with someone else. Also, when we came to pay our bill it came to £29.03 and my friend and I wanted it split in half as the 12.5% tip had already been included so we were expecting to pay £14.50 & £14.53 but he said shall we round it up to £30. I wondered whether this was because he was unable to work out what 50% of our bill would have been and therefore easier saying £30. Again, I have no problem, as it seems petty for an extra 50p from each off our cards but it does beg the question, that if it had been a larger amount, would he have increased the price to make it easier to split it between us? After all the tip was already included. We did not want to make a fuss and in fact my friend left extra cash as a tip on the table but I just felt the waiter should not have suggested the amount, he should have just split the bill as I requested. I just felt it is worth pointing these 2 things out. Look forward to hearing from you Kind regards

    Our afternoon tea was disappointing, we had two finger sandwiches, one of which was just cucumber and what tasted like margarine (a lot of margarine) we couldn’t eat them. The salmon finger sandwich was ok. The brioche with chicken truffle inside had hardly any chicken truffle in it and was mostly bread. The cakes were ok. For the price paid we were disappointed. It was my birthday and they did bring me a little cake with a candle in which was a nice touch.

    The Ivy is a beautiful venue with excellent food and attentive staff. It was our first visit snd we will definitely be back. The food was excellent and arrived quickly. It was nice to go to a restaurant where there are crisp tablecloths and napkins. We would definitely recommend the Ivy to our friends.

    Always a lovely evening at The Ivy, Cheltenham. Beautiful surroundings, food consistently good, felt a little rushed last evening, a slower pace would lead to a more enjoyable experience....just an observation. We will definitely be back though!

    Given a voucher for my birthday, food was nice but not outstanding and the bill came to £120 for 2 people, one glass of wine and one bottled water and only one starter. Lovely venue but overpriced food.

    It was my partner’s Birthday and we had the most wonderful experience. The ambiance was excellent, the food was fantastic, and live gentle jazz music. I was concerned it would be intrusive as we sat next to the trio but it was at the right level and perfect for the venue. Very efficient service and friendly staff. I would highly recommend a visit and can’t wait to return. Thank you!

    Food very good although one of our party said her dish was overly oily/greasy. Service very good and the ambience/setting is superb. Fortunate enough to be there on a Sunday lunchtime and so enjoyed live music (very moderate volume). Would strongly recommend.

    It was a mixed story. Super service from our table waiter, let down by his supervisor. We had 2 delicate and delicious starters, one light and fragrant main - amazing monkfish curry and one very disappointing rib eye steak. Circa 50% fat and not at all appetising. The greater disappointment came after our (very good) waiter identified the issue, made his supervisor aware and then offered us free coffees (which we did not take up at 10pm!) to make up for the disappointing dish - most expensive on the menu. Honestly not sure we’ll go back.
