Sunday lunch, bottomless wine or processco - absolutely perfect! The beef was beautiful, the wine was good and the service great. Unbelievable value with no corners cut. I would highly recommend this for any occasion. Just make sure you book a taxi home!

We went for Sunday Lunch. The service was excellent from the moment we arrived to sorting out a taxi when we left. The food was delicious and beautifully presented and all the house wines were very drinkable. Top tip - if you go for the Sunday Lunch get a taxi home

Myself and Partner came here for the first time on Saturday evening. Now I will start by saying that I had certain dietary requirements and they could nit do enough to accommodate this and the waitress really was very friendly and polite. That's where the good bit ends, its much smaller than expecte...

Would appreciate not having to ask for knives and plates at afternoon tea then have to ask for napkins as they were overlooked too. Told them on the way in we were celebrating two birthdays but no acknowledgements were made . I did not expect much but the waiters attention to detail would be nice....

If trying to organise any group event here forget it, the company is full of broken promises, never returning of phone calls, disgusting customer service on the phone, being told "I shouldn't have bothered ringing as the events co-coordinator was organising a wedding all day" (This is after being to...

We went for afternoon tea there and I have had better elsewhere. I wouldn t recommend it

Afternoon tea seems to be the shift between lunch end and preparing for dinner, so the staff are quite busy and perhaps less attentive than during a meal. Hence the long wait before anyone introduced themselv...

Have been using the daffodil for many years. There have been a few issues in the past. However always dealt with well and that is why we continue to return. We use the daffodil for a few different occasions. Birthdays and romantic meals for 2 and for a quick drink after work. Always a relaxing atm...

I've eaten and enjoyed drinks here on a number of occasions. It's a very unique venue for Cheltenham, with a lovely Art Deco exterior and polished interior. The food is good modern British. The service can at times be a little lacklustre, especially given the price point. Saturday lunchtime and Mond...

Have only been here about 4-5 times, but only when The Daffodil was the venue for some of the gigs as part of the 6-day Cheltenham Jazz Festival. A cocktail is served upstairs at the atmospheric bar followed by a set 3-course dinner downstairs whilst the very accomplished house band play standard ja...

Roast was cold when first served so we asked for fresh plates. Even our replacements went cold very quickly and were very underseasoned. Overall quite disappointing, especially given the price tag. Clearly the bottomless deal helps to mask what is otherwise very average food. One big plus was that t...

A wonderful venue with great cocktails. The service was friendly but the food was average. I ordered my steak medium-rare and it came out well done. The dessert was also a bit of a let-down. We ordered two 'Warm Chocolate Brownies' and while they looked good, they'd actually came out cold and unmelt...

Really atmospheric Art Deco interior (a converted 1920s cinema) and the friendliness of staff and the quality of food matched the grandeur of the setting. We were visiting Cheltenham for the first time and celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary and the photo shows how the staff took this on board....

Beautiful setting with well spaced out tables. An atmosphere of adult chatter and humour makes the place feel warm and inviting. Service was as you would expect in such a lovely building, exceptional. The menu catered for all appetites with some wonderful fish dishes, great steaks or just fish n ch...

I don't go to the Daffodil enough. Went to the Cheltenham Ivy the night before and wasn't impressed. The Daffodil however has always had superb food, an unbelievable atmosphere plus the art deco thing is unique anywhere around here. You really need to come here at least once.

Went here for afternoon tea with my wife.

Food was amazing, staff polite, friendly and helpful.

Would recommend wholeheartedly.

What would make a 5? Had to ask for plates and cutlery to go with our afternoon tea; and toward the end of our meal the place filled with strong smells of frying f...

We have been to The Daffodil a few time recently and done the Sunday roast. It's good value with unlimited wine for 2 hours.
You get a starter, main and unlimited wine for a good price. And we always get the sharer dessert as its brilliant.
Always worth a try at this amazing venue.
