  “I was very uncomfortable with what I witnessed at this pub. The owner approached a group of foreign customers and told them they had to order more drinks or leave, even though they had already purchased drinks. Meanwhile, other customers in similar circumstances were left alone. What made this especially disturbing was that the owner’s attention seemed to be focused on people of colour. From what I witnessed, this felt like discriminatory and racist treatment. No customer should be treated differently because of their ethnicity or the colour of their skin. Because of this experience, I will not be returning and I cannot recommend this pub. I would rather support businesses where everyone is treated with dignity, fairness, and respect.”

  “We visited Gloucester today with the hopes of finding a lovely pub where we could play darts, The Abbey was recommended to us. Upon entering we were hopeful, although it was quiet for a Friday lunchtime. It started with trying to order food, and finding out there wasn’t very much available from the menu. Then we tried to order drinks, we couldn’t have the Smirnoff ice as the staff didn’t know how to operate the till. This may have been ok, but the attitude of the staff that served us was questionable at best. When the food arrived it was so disappointing, the grease has left us all feeling sick. The smell in the toilets ensured that we left the contents of our stomachs in there 🤢 the dart board didn’t even make up for it, as it was so worn down, the darts wouldn’t even stay in place. Might be worth replacing it? Needless to say, will definitely NOT be visiting again and would definitely NOT recommend”

  “Came to watch the semifinals in the best atmosphere - the pub. Since the game was in minore intereste the pub was not crowded. The coleslaw was 6/10 due to too much mayo. The chips were ok but the fish was relativly small. Green salad was ok”

  “Drinks were ok. Table was filthy. I told the bar staff there was a load of sick in the toilets and the young girl behind the bar said ‘uh yes we knowww’ (as if I was a nuisance for telling her) it wouldn’t take much to say ‘thank you for letting us know, we’re on it’.. if you know, clean it up? Rude staff. Dirty tables. Disgusting toilets. TV screens that have lost their colour?! Not the best. Won’t be returning. Won’t be recommending.”

  “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Abbey in Gloucester has once again lured us in with the promise of unlimited drinks, and somewhere between the second prosecco and the third cocktail, I’m fairly certain a warlock appeared at our table. He may have been the bartender. Or Dave. Hard to say. As brunch unfolded, the room filled with laughter, clinking glasses, and at least three fairies (possibly just very sparkly people) flitting between tables delivering plates of food like enchanted offerings. Time lost all meaning. One minute we were ordering, the next we were deep in a heroic quest to decide between “just one more drink” and “absolutely one more drink.” The food was excellent, the drinks kept flowing like a magical spring, and the staff handled the whole chaotic, fairy-warlock-brunch energy with skill and good humour. No one was turned into a frog, service was quick, and spirits were high—both emotional and alcoholic. All nonsense aside, we genuinely had a great time. Fantastic atmosphere, generous bottomless brunch, and exactly the kind of place you leave already planning your return. Five stars. Would happily brunch here again, spellbook optional.”

  “BOTTOMLESS BRUNCH.... BANGING!!! food was great, drinks selection was decent and we could have what we wanted at any time. Neo, the server was polite and friendly and kept checking if we needed more drinks. There was 9 of us and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely be back in Sept for round 2!!”

  “Great place to celebrate my birthday. First time doing bottomless brunch... Well, let's just say they didn't hold back on supplying us with loads of drinks.”

  “Quite a large place. Tap beers and ciders available. Large TV on the wall with a few smaller dotted around. I had a pint of Guinness which was at a reasonable price. Wooden floors throughout. Mix match of tables and chairs. Wheelchair accessable with plenty of room to manoeuvre. Staff were friendly and polite. Beer was reasonable. Good visit.”

  “Have been to the Abbey pub many times over the years. Though the interior is still the same it looks as tho it has changed ownership and is now under a craft social. Plenty of tables and an outdoor courtyard. Area with pool table. And big screen TV but if that's not your thing you can sit well away from it. In cosy booths. Having made both my food and drink choices I decided to try ordering through the app ...which was easily accessed via the qr code . I went with a g&t ...now I like my tonic separate ...so I was a little peeved when it arrived already mixed. However when the stunning floral crafted gin was put in front of me all was forgiven. My cutlery and a selection of condiments were brought prior to my food arriving. Which also was extremely good and well presented. Drink prices pretty average...food maybe a little more than you'd pay say at a wetherspoons. Seemed very popular with all age groups.”

  “The best meal we've had while in Gloucestershire. Dog friendly inside and out, staff were fab. We all enjoyed our meals, the pizza cone was a pleasant surprise. Burgers are excellent and steak pie was very good quality. Portion sizes generous, could not fault this place. Much better quality than Wetherspoons!!”
