A large, traditional pub set on the corner of a backstreet in one of Cheltenham’s more desirable addresses, The Beehive is very much a hub of Montpellier’s social scene. A roaring fire in the bar and a peaceful garden out back make this a boozer for all seasons, while The Snug restaurant area attracts foodies with dishes such as pork loin accompanied by grain-mustard mash, juniper, bacon and cider gravy, as well as crowd-pleasing Sunday roasts. In the lively bar, choose between a range of local ales from breweries including Battledown and Goff’s or ciders from Somerset and Herefordshire; there’s also a range of locally made pies to go with your chosen pint.
