Lakeside - Cheltenham

We had breakfast at this restaurant while staying at the Doubletree. Due to Covid restrictions, there was more queuing than usual, which was exacerbated by the coffee machine breaking down. The food itself was decent, but the limited choices were a result of the current circumstances.

The food was of very poor quality and not prepared according to our preferences. The service was extremely slow, even for drinks. We were not checked on regarding the food, only asked "how you doing guys?" as a female, I do not appreciate being addressed as a guy.

During our stay at the Hilton Doubletree, we had the pleasure of dining at the Lakeside Restaurant for two delicious dinners. The dining room had a relaxed atmosphere with a contrast to the bustling breakfast service. The set menus offered a variety of well-prepared and presented dishes at a great value. The staff were efficient and polite. I would highly recommend the Lakeside Restaurant.

Lakeside is the restaurant at the Doubletree by Hilton in Cheltenham located at Charlton Kings. I had several breakfasts here plus one evening meal. Although the breakfast service was a little restricted due to pandemic measures, the food was nevertheless decent, with a reasonable selection of hot items, plus a good range of juices, fruit, yoghurt, pastries and hot beverages. I had an early dinner one night in order to view the England v Denmark football match in my room. To start, I had melon and ham, roast of the day (gammon) for main and Eton Mess for dessert. I had a large gin tonic, a large glass of Chardonnay and an Irish coffee to accompany the food. Everything, including the service, was very good and the gammon with the accompanying vegetables was particularly satisfying. Cost was around £45.

This is the restaurant of the Double Tree hotel. Friendly waiting staff, a good range of dishes on offer and reasonably priced. Nice outlook over the gardens and pond (lake is a bit of an exaggeration! .
