Coco Lush sits in the village of Charlton Kings, just south of Cheltenham, offering a straightforward kind of refuge after a day spent exploring the wider Cotswolds.
The drinks menu is where this pub makes its mark, with a carefully chosen range of local and craft beers alongside cocktails for those wanting to try something different or stick with the classics.
This is genuinely a locals' pub, the kind of place where you'll see residents from Charlton Kings itself settling in for proper conversations or a bit of quiet time. Because it's on Cheltenham's edge, it captures something real about everyday village life rather than trading on atmosphere or history. If you're based in Cheltenham for a few days, it's close enough for an easy evening out without needing to travel far.
The appeal here is in the straightforward comfort of it all. The staff know what matters to people visiting a good local pub: drinks worth ordering, decent company, and a pleasant space to spend a couple of hours unwinding. There's no particular heritage to explore or theme to decode, which makes it ideal if you want to decompress at the end of a day's wandering through the Cotswolds without feeling like you ought to be impressed by something or learning something specific. Sometimes that's exactly what you need.
