Places to eat in Tetbury

Where to eat in Tetbury

Tetbury eats in two places. The centre, on Long Street and Church Street a few minutes from the Market House, has tapas, a bakery and a café. The pubs for a long lunch are just outside, on the London Road and at Shipton Moyne.

Lola & Co, at 20A Long Street, is a tapas restaurant run by a Spanish family who began with a small tapas bar in the town about ten years ago. It buys from small producers, changes its menu with the season and opens every day from noon to 10pm. Next door, KOKO, its cocktail bar, opens from 5pm, takes no bookings and serves food. Hobbs House Bakery on Church Street sells bread, cakes and takeaway coffee from 8am, Monday to Saturday. At 61 Long Street, the Gilbertine Kitchen serves breakfast and lunch from Wednesday to Sunday, until 3pm, or 2pm on Sundays, with brunch on Sundays, and hands its kitchen to guest cooks and supper evenings on set dates. It is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Pubs outside the town

The Trouble House on the London Road was built around 1754 by a Tetbury carpenter, John Reeve. It cooks homemade, seasonal food, from fish and chips to confit belly of pork, with fish specials on Friday evenings, and has a large garden with a small football pitch and plenty of parking. The Cat & Custard Pot Inn at Shipton Moyne, an eight-minute drive away, is a village pub where well-behaved dogs can go anywhere, with a separate Italian room, the Chalet, for wood-fired pizza and fresh pasta from Friday to Sunday.

Booking, Sunday lunch and children

Book Lola & Co, especially for a group; KOKO is the fallback when it is full. The Trouble House takes bookings through its website, and the Cat & Custard Pot through OpenTable. Sunday lunch is the strength of both pubs: the Trouble House serves it from noon to 3pm, and the Cat & Custard Pot from noon to 7.30pm, with live music in the Chalet in the evening. The Trouble House is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and serves dinner only from Thursday to Saturday. Families do best there, with the garden and the football pitch, and it caters for vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free diets.

Prices, dogs and parking

On the Trouble House's autumn 2026 menu, fish and chips is £20.50 and its beef burger £18.95; Lola & Co's menu is not online as text, so we give no prices for it. Dogs are welcome at the Trouble House and throughout the Cat & Custard Pot. In the town, the Old Railyard car park is free, while the Chipping, West Street and Church Street take card or PayByPhone only; the Trouble House has its own free parking.
