just a nice site to find a restaurant in Cheltenham
John Gordons is unique - 50% off licence, 50% bar. You can pick your wine off the shelf, pay retail and proceed to enjoy it in the arcade setting of the bar (any wine lover will appreciate this USP).
And of course, you can enjoy any of the 100 whiskies by the glass, all chosen by Gordon and his knowledgable staff - and they'll talk you through the finer points of whiskey (or wine) - expert connoisseur's on hand to make sure you appreciate the depths of the carefully chosen products on offer.
People just love to come about 10.00pm after the restaurant or theatre for a dram. The fantastic arcade adjacent to the shop has been remarked on often as being a mini Paris in feel. Enjoy a drink with cheese or charcuteries, ideal to accompany the prize drinks on offer.
Outside and below in the intimate basement bar you can enjoy jazz or funk with with your chosen live music on Fridays and Saturdays. This is truly a dynamic place with built in relaxation just as the mood desires.
Owners Gordon and Michelle get staff to taste everything that comes in so they really accrue the knowledge of what's on offer. Vast whiskey knowledge means the staff can talk people through what they're enjoying (if they so require). Gordon has fantastic love and knowledge for wine and spirits - lucky man!
Open: Mon - Wed 11.00am - 10.00pm; Thurs - Sat 10.00am - 11.00pm; Sun from 11.00am - closed evenings.
