ARC espresso bar + deli

We had been meaning to visit our local cafe for ages. ARC is our new favourite spot: great coffee, amazing food, lovely people. I cant believe it took us so long to make our way in and I wish we made it a priority sooner! It has a home away from home feel, making it a peaceful place to spend a few hours. Weve also popped in before catching a train and they kindly accommodated our less than ideal timing.

Positioned dead opposite Cheltenham Spa railway station on Gloucester Road, is a delightful coffee shop with a warm, cosy atmosphere. The cortado I enjoyed was perfectly balanced and crafted to perfection by the evidently skilled and friendly barista, and the flaky almond croissant was just the job. With plenty of plug sockets and a comfortable ambiance, it was a great spot to plug in and do a bit of work. The quietly funky music in the background adds the perfect touch. Watching a steady run of regulars coming in suggests it's a favourite amongst the locals. Highly recommended

The best coffee shop next to a train station I've ever been to. A wonderful range of food, a lot of interesting pastries and baked goods that are different and interesting from the usual fayre. Lovely coffee, my cortado was so good and they have a great range of coffee beans and other delights in their deli to take home. You could visit here many times and try something new on every visit and leave with a skip in your step. I will definitely be returning.
