Meat the Greeks at No. 3

3 brings authentic Greek cooking to Charlton Kings, a quiet residential village just outside Cheltenham. If you've spent the day working through traditional Cotswolds fare and want something entirely different, this is worth the short trip out.

The kitchen takes Greek food seriously, turning out classics executed properly rather than simplified for passing trade. You'll find the full range of mezze—those small plates designed for sharing—followed by grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, and other traditional dishes that feel substantial and genuinely flavourful. It's an unpretentious place where you can relax over a proper meal, whether you're with family or friends, knowing the food will satisfy without any fuss.

Charlton Kings has a different character from central Cheltenham, quieter and more residential, which makes for a calmer evening out. The location is also practical—you're only a short drive or bus ride from Cheltenham town centre and everything it offers, so you can easily reach here after spending time in town or exploring the wider region. You get real Greek cooking in a welcoming space without needing to travel far from wherever you're staying in the area.
