The Longford Inn Beefeater

I last went to the Longford 17 years ago, so that probably says a lot about that experience. Today was busy and had been busier. Staff were a little frazzled and seemed to be catching up.... So you can imagine my surprise at being greeted and made to feel like our party mattered and was welcome. All smiles, the manager/hostess found us a table and then our waitress repeated the same pleasant, smiling service. Service was a little slow, the food wasn't perfect, but it was tasty and well presented. Our waitress went the extra mile to make it a nice experience especially making an extra effort for our daughter. All in all, we had a thoroughly lovely evening and the best dining experience in Gloucester/Cheltenham that we've had in a brief visit back to the UK. Thank you to the manager and staff, we're glad we came.

Managed to get a last minute table for 2. Restaurant was busy and only 4 waiting staff on. Which were all working flat out. The kitchen team seemed to be able to get the food out quicker than the waiting staff could keep up with. The food was lovely and the staff very friendly and helpful even though they were over worked and needed a well earned break.

Wasn't too busy but had to wait a while to be seated. After that the service was pretty good. Couple of things run out from the menu, but I guess that's because they popular and run out after a Saturday night. Pleasant experience. Lots if offers for rewards if you sign up, like 50% off on sign up, but it's a bit miss leading because you don't get a voucher for like 2 days later.

Don’t often post about quality of food and staff at a beefeater so this is rare. Greeted warmly by staff, very busy but they still managed to seat me with a minute or so. Clean table and drinks order taken promptly. Had the cheesy mushrooms and the 10oz gammon, both dishes were very well cooked! Servers came and checked on me even though busy. Very impressed from top to bottom . Special mention to Lucy, exceptional service.

We went there to meet up with friends. Had a lovely meal, most of us had a Sunday Roast option. My hubby and I had the Roast option for £15.99 which came with half a roast chicken, slices of roast beef and lamb with roast potatoes, peas, carrots, cauliflower cheese, stuffing, pigs 'n' blankets and a Yorkshire pudding. There was loads on my plate couldn't eat all of mine, so asked to take home the meat that I couldn't finish, was given a bag to take it home in 😁 Friendly staff, would eat there again. When next in the area.
