What you see is what you get with Starbucks. Like most branches, the drinks are obviously good (if…read morea little over-priced) and you usually get an attempted smile from the staff - although this is less likely on Saturdays! The location of the Cheltenham branch is very handy - it's central and sits just on the promenade which is definitely the nicer bit of town! The big glass windows on the ground floor are great if you can manage to nab a window seat, perfect for people watching! My only real complaint is the inevitable pre-planning and teamwork required to hook yourself up with a table and enough seats during the weekend rush.

You can't really go too wrong with Starbucks, but this branch isn't my favourite. For one thing…read morethey don't seem to stock much in the way of cakes, but the main problem for me is that the majority of seating is upstairs, and the downstairs area is very small and cramped. I have no option but to sit downstairs with a pushchair in tow, and it does put me off going in because I never know if I will be able to find a seat. The hot chocolate is delicious though!

Excellent little cafe tucked away in Cheltenham on Bath Road…read more The Curious Cafe came highly recommended, especially for their great breakfast choices. As soon as you walk in it feels unique and cozy. The decor is great with all sorts of color and items to catch your eye around the room. The inside area is small but an outside garden area adds a lot more tables and space. Came in during breakfast time and went with the "Apprentice" breakfast, as I heard the "Blacksmiths" breakfast is enough to feed an army. Breakfast was great with all the traditional items served perfectly and some delicious toast accompanying it. Took a look at the menu and saw all sorts of good looking sandwiches, wraps and desserts also on offer. Definitely worth a try especially if you want to stay outside the center of town area.

The tea and coffee came quite quickly, but then after over 10 minutes, our scones still hadn't arrived and by that time our tea/coffee was too cold to eat. The waitress never came back, so we called another over, who apologised, but by then it was a bit late and we left. I do hope this was a one-off and just an oversight, as otherwise, it seemed a pleasant enough place for a cuppa.

Anyway, my beady eyes spied this place on my way into Cheltenham when I was visiting for a wedding. The following day I scuttled out of the torrential rain for a cosy seat and some tea and cake. Disappointment number 1: seats are uncomfy and the space isn't very cosy at all This was pretty much immediately forgiven when I saw the gorgeous display of cakes and cupcakes and pastries and mini loaves and meringues and cookies. Yuuum! I was so excited! And indecisive! Admittedly to the point of annoyance, to which the staff did nothing to disguise. Settled on a red velvet cupcake for me and a strawberry cupcake for my boyfriend. Tea for him, macchiato for me because I needed a serious wake up after wedding craziness. Disappointment number 2: macchiato was not the teeny tiny espresso sized coffee it should be, but half a big cupful. Disappointment number 3: my red velvet cake was a) not red, but brown and b) stale. I didn't finish it. That's A Big Deal. Dec's strawberry cupcake had a lovely flavour but the fresh strawberry through the cake had made the sponge gloopy. Gutted. They sell nice cake stands and sweets and crockery if you're looking for a cute gift, which I was and I did purchase and the recipients were pleased.

But the main attraction for many will be the Butterfly Bakery-esque cupcakes that are lined up in a display cabinet. What's not to like?! I have to say that I was tempted away from the cupcakes by an individually baked lemon meringue pie. Oh deary me, it was the last one available but if there were more I would have smashed through a second it was that lovely. Chewy, just browning meringue on top of a creamy, sweet and very lemony base made to make your mouth water! The girlfriend went for Banana Cake which was moist and bananery - made of yum. We were impressed by the decor, which was modern, clean and functional. No cozy seats though, disappointingly, just tables for 2 or 4 and a raised bar along the window. Like I said, a cracking addition to an already well-serviced area of town where competition is stiff. Its uniqueness will, I'm certain, continue to attract people with kids, 'soccer mom' types and those with girlfriends with a weird cupcake fetish...

We actually enjoyed this place so much that we had a drink before dinner, went to dinner around the corner, and then came back for some after dinner drinks. Did notice a sign for their full Sunday Lunch special for £6.50, reason enough to come back!
