I've been to the Everyman a few times now, mostly to watch the productions for children, although…read morewe did also go to see Dick Wittington the panto last Christmas and it was excellent - a really good day out. The building is stunning and it's very comfortable inside. It's conveniently located in the town centre, with an entrance from the street and another from inside Regent's Arcade, so it's not difficult to find at all. I can't wait for my next visit!

Another great venue in CHeltenham. Again great plays and productions very enjoyable evening out…read more Parking is good which is great for centre of town.

The Playhouse appears to be a well kept secret! Once we discovered it (just round the corner from…read moreThe Everyman) we have chosen to make most of our theatre trips to there. In the past ten years they have a wider range of drama thanThe Everyman, and very often of a higher standard of acting and directing, with excellent sets and lighting. These include dramas like Man of the Moment, Under Milk Wood and On Golden Pond, plus occasional operas in English like Lakme, and Gilbert & Sullivan and Christmas Panto. What is so amazing is that these are all amateur productions, put on my different member companies from around the area. What a lot of talent never made it to the professional stage! The interior was recently upgraded with steeply tiered comfortable seating and improved bar facilities. The average ticket price is about £12, with parking less than 100 yards away. It has quite a history, including being the municipal swimming baths!

There's a big car park connected to the theatre as-well as the shopping area and restaurants within walking distance with food inside too and hotels surrounding the theatre, the theatre itself is beautiful and the person playing Freddie Mercury had amazing vocals and put on an amazing performance, service was so good with everyone being very polite and friendly. 100% recommend this place especially with prices

My daughter has been taking ballet lessons at the main dance school in the town centre for almost a…read moreyear, and I am very impressed so far. She adores dancing and always looks forward to her lessons. The teachers are always friendly, warm and welcoming - it feels like a little family. It does get busy in the changing rooms, but there's always plenty of space. Their prices are comparative with other dance schools in the area. The convenient location on the high street, just above Iceland, is great for parents - there's just enough time to do a bit of shopping before the end of the class. Ballet is far from the only class on offer - they also teach tap, jazz and modern to children and adults of all ages. Many of the pupils perform in local shows and festivals, although I am yet to have any experience of these as my own little ballerina is only 4. The dancewear shop stocks a well priced range of leotards, dance shoes etc and the staff will fit them for you.

The use a church hall for their Charlton Kings lessons, which is convenient for children at the local infant and junior schools. Families coming from slightly further afield (like us) have no problem parking the car. The teachers are very good at dealing with very young children, and the school is adept at dealing with this age group, not ridiculously strict and formal. Shopping opportunties in Charlton Kings are not up to the standards of the town centre, but the post office is handy, and Smith and Mann is an excellent shop if you've forgotten to bring a post-ballet snack!

Lots of screens, always lots of film choice. Good range of food and sweeties. Clean and tidy, friendly staff. Have to pay to park however, which foes bump the price up. Good location in the Brewery so lots of nearby restaurants for a good night out.

Their £1 kids club films on a Saturday morning are excellent for a cheap treat. There's a choice of 3 and tickets can be purchased on the day or in advance - there are machines that print off pre-booked tickets in the foyer. I agree that the food and drinks are far too expensive, but feel that this is an issue with all cinemas. The popcorn is very nice. They also sell various icecreams, nachos, soft drinks and pick & mix.

I first went to Akamba in April this year. I'd found it online a few weeks earlier, whilst looking…read morefor tribute nights locally, and then a friend mentioned she had a voucher for a meal there, so we gave it a go. Let's be honest, eating dinner at a garden centre usually sounds like the sort of things your parents or grandparents (depending on your age!) would do, however, this little slice of African themed heaven is a far cry from what you'd normal expect of such a place! I've not made it to Africa, though have traveled widely in Asia, and the outside felt totally authentic, being similar to bars and restaurants I've eaten in abroad. Even outside, you are sheltered from the rain, and inside, where the buffet is served, it's warm and cosy, with live music of an evening, and the most amazing spread of food. I've been a number of times since that first dinner, having returned in the day with my dog, as it's dog friendly if you're happy to sit outside - they even bring a bowl of water for our four legged friends! I've had lunch there, and the most fabulous afternoon cream tea, and cake, whilst the choice is limited, what they offer is very tasty (and I'm a fan of cake!) I loved it that much the first night, that I've refused to go there for a meal again, as I'm going for my 40th, which happens to fall on a Thursday, and looking forward to sharing the experience with close friends. The service is always friendly. It's not always super fast, as it runs on Kenyan time, so this isn't the place to go in a rush. Indeed, why would you? It's such a delightful experience that it deserves to be cherished. Oh, and the shop is pretty fab too! So yes, dog friendly, fab food, great shop and friendly service!
