The Railway in Cheltenham

I've been coming here for years, it's by far one of the best pubs in Cheltenham, if not Gloucestershire. Lovely staff, great music, lovely food, great atmosphere and an amazing selection of regional drinks.Literally have nothing bad to say about it.

Exceptional place to gets drinks and some incredible food, swung by and stayed for more than intended, had the BBQ Panang curry (wow!) it was delicious. The service was impeccable, everyone was friendly and really made us feel welcome!

Simple yet decent quality Thai food in a friendly non 'gastro chain' pub. Dog friendly with helpful staff. Good background choice of music too.

Fantastic boozer, wonderful staff and great selection of beers very reasonably priced. Good vibes and atmosphere.

Excellent Thai! I used to live out there so Thai food in UK is usually a bit naff but this is (in my humble opinion) the best I've found in Cheltenham in terms of authentic flavour. More vegan/veg options would be nice though!

Food was delicious. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable of the dishes available.The prawn dumpling was crispy and very tasty. The marinated steak was sublime. The whole seabass was rather large for one person, but was crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked inside.The atmosphere was lively with a great buzz to the place.Only slight gripe was the wine prices. Thought they were on the high side, but there was a decent choice available.Would definitely come again.

We didn’t expect much as this was the place we went to just for another drink. But when we went inside and smelled all the food we stayed for dinner too. And oh my god - I think it’s the best Thai I’ve had in ages! The whole place is really nice too - it’s on the posher side when you think of it as a pub, but in a good way! And the staff was so nice too! I definitely recommend!

I have been to the Railway about 3 or 4 times. Previously I had been when they used to do Sausages rather than thai food.So this time I went along with 4 of my workmates and we booked ahead and ordered ahead of time also.We arrived 30 minutes early as we wanted to have a couple of pints before the meal. They just sat us down in our booked table. They do have Deya on tap which is my favourite so that was great.I had the pork dumplings for starter, which was OK, but I wished I had picked something different.For main I had the duck and some roti and they were both outstanding. The duck is well worth trying.There was a bit of confusion over what my workmates ordered as they asked for the pork but were given the duck. But they sorted that out quickly and made the pork for them.Whilst we were there a pub quiz started so we thought we would do it. The hardest quiz I've ever done! A round on serial killers, politicla quotes! We did terribly but it was fun.

Good food and drink with a lovely garden and heater lamps! Really good atmosphere and a great place to visit

The railway is genuinely one of the best places to ‘just go for a drink’ or to ‘find a really good ipa’ or for ‘arguably the best Thai in the area’ and also ‘a beautiful beer garden’ and it’s because of its ability to tick all these boxes that it’s done so well in recent years.The craft sausage restaurant idea was a tad too niche but with Smokey Phi-Phi, they have a beautiful smelling wood fired Thai grill on the go - it’s defo worth trying the duck or marinated sirloin as they’re just excellent tasting dishes with a cold pint of a local IPA.Recently had some tap takeovers which makes it a must-visit for the craft beer enthusiasts and one for the guys in there, Alex, knows a thing or two about pints and is always happy to chat.Finally, it’s the perfect place to take a dog. The staff are super friendly to dogs, offering bowls of water and biscuits as well as generally going out their way to make you and your pooch feel welcome.
