About This Pub

Ah, the Avenue in Gloucester, what a spot for a cheeky pint or a hearty meal with friends! From what I've gathered, it's got that warm, community feel where everyone chats like old mates, and the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome – it's like stepping into your favourite local straight away. The food's come on leaps and bounds since the new owners took over, with pub classics that hit the spot and even some daily deals to keep things budget-friendly. Plus, with a lovely beer garden and being dog-friendly, it's perfect for those sunny afternoons or family outings. On the flip side, though, they do have that gap in food service between 3pm and 4pm, which might throw a spanner in the works if you're not planning ahead. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone in the area looking for a good time without breaking the bank – I'd say give it a go if you're after that genuine pub experience, but just keep an eye on the timings to make the most of it.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and create such a welcoming, down-to-earth atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.
  • The food is a real highlight – think classic pub grub like fish and chips or burgers, and it's all improved under the new ownership, with daily deals to boot.
  • It's super dog-friendly, so you can bring your furry friends along for a pint and a bite without any fuss.
  • They've got a cracking beer garden that's perfect for soaking up the sun with mates, plus plenty of parking and space inside and out.
  • It's a great spot for watching live sports or catching up with family, with events and a lively vibe that keeps things fun.
Cons
  • They don't serve food between 3pm and 4pm, which could be a bit of a nuisance if you're popping in for a late lunch or early dinner.
  • The operating hours might vary a tad, so it's worth double-checking to avoid any surprises, especially on quieter days.

Pub has changed hands recently so gave it a go for lunch. Very pleasantly surprised. Much improved food and nice service. They also now take blue light / armed forces. Will be back.

I just love the atmosphere here! I don't go out much but when I visit the Avenue I always have a great time and come home feeling uplifted. The proprietors and staff are all lovely. You know when you go on holiday, everyone talks to each other? Well it is like that here with the customers. They put on some great entertainment and the food is amazing. If you haven't get been get yourself over. You won't regret it!

Booked here for lunch with family. Not been here for a long time. Been nicely decorated. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Nice beer garden. Plenty of parking. Lounge and bar area. And shows sports. Clean and tidy and toilets are the same and easily accessible. Situated just short drive or walk from town centre heading outwards Quedgeley. Car park is easily accessible also. This is on the corner of Bristol Road and Tuffley Lane. Menu has various options. And different meals that are available Monday to Saturday. Meals were good and all had different options. Portions are of good size. This place is reasonably priced. Have different things available in the week like Bingo. And there is a clairvoyant on Wednesdays but best ring place to find out more. Staff friendly and welcoming. Would recommend and will go again..

Stopped by with friends for lunch after a morning walk. Atmosphere was cosy and food was great, we were even able to bring the dogs in too. Will definitely be back again when next in the area.

We hired a hall at the avenue it’s under new ownership and the communication was brilliant from the first time I messaged. They were so accommodating and absolutely lovely, I will definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for one! Service was also great at the bar! Thank you so much x
