Corner Cupboard Inn, Cheltenham

I went up the steps to the main entrance and found myself in a small public bar with three hand pumps. The customers were lively and noisy but I was only here for a quick half, so I took no notice. Beer choice was Wye Valley Butty Bach, Sharps Doom Bar and Fullers London Pride. I went for the last named but it was too cold and was clumsily poured (NBSS 2.5). I found myself a quieter corner to sit in, but on my way out I saw that I had missed a further room on the far left which looked like it might have been a better option - not so much for the beer as for the atmosphere. I see that this pub is in the Good Beer Guide again this year, so presumably the beer is not always served as cold as when I was there. Date of visit: 13th September 2023

a historic multi roomed pub on an ancient high street, I felt at home as soon as I walked in - no virus hysteria, just sensible caution where required. Walked left to a tiny bar with a few regulars in and three ales on the bar - Tribute (very good), Butty Bach and Doom Bar. It felt like a proper locals pub in a tourist town. Didn’t explore the restaurant and didn’t try the food so can’t comment on it. but I would definitely return here if I was in the area again.
