Atmosphere & Ambience
Pros:
"The overall ambience of the Gloucester Old Spot pub was delightful."
"From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for a delightful meal."
"Great atmosphere inside, very friendly clientele."
"The beer garden is well laid out, clean and has a peaceful atmosphere."
"A real community pub, family-friendly outdoors, large dining area, smaller snug."
"Lovely outdoor area with lights and a good selection of tables. Very welcoming."
"The garden has transformed the pub into a brilliant place for children to play safe and allow parents time to relax."
Cons:
"It was bit more playground than pub garden in atmosphere."
"We were the first in so atmosphere was dead."
"Pub was ridiculously noisy and due to a persons 60th birthday we had to endure someone attempting to play horrendous bagpipes."
"Just had the worst meal ever in a crowded loud smokey garden."
"If you want to have a quite conversation with a friend or an intimate meal then this might not be the best place to start at."
"This is a nice pub with an excellent beer garden. The only real downside is that it is equipped for families so if (like us) you aren't interested in sharing the space with young screaming children then I suggest avoiding it throughout the day on the weekends."
"It's a nice place...however, the place was very..very full...so if you eating on a Sunday you need to book..the service was slow but with so many people it's wonder we got served at all."

"The staff were friendly but very busy and this resulted in slow service for our drinks and food."
