About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
The South Cotswolds holds many attractions and events and the Cat is superbly situated to be able to enjoy many of these. Both the historic towns of Tetbury and Malmesbury are within a stone’s throw of us.

A three-mile radius encompasses Westonbirt Arboretum and Westonbirt school, Highgrove gardens, and the Beaufort polo club. Badminton and Gatcombe horse trials are both within easy reach. We are 24 miles from the Roman spa town of Bath and from the city of Bristol, both with their many attractions. Cheltenham races are 34 miles from the Cat.

Apart from these attractions, we are in the heart of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) with many wonderful walks direct from our front door. We welcome well-behaved dogs.
Our chef’s mission is to serve delicious pub food at reasonable prices. Our ingredients are fresh and largely sourced from local suppliers. Our menu changes with the seasons and availability of quality produce.

    The Cat and Custard Pot remains our local pub of choice to eat. The menu is perfect with a sensible range of dishes all of which use high quality ingredients cooked with care. The service is friendly and professional. Good beers and an excellent wine list. Best ice cream too!

    We’ve dined at the pub before and the food has been excellent. Unfortunately we can’t say the same for Sunday lunch, it was very disappointing. My husband had the pork which looked very unappetising. The vegetables had no taste and were overcooked and some were undercooked. However the staff were friendly and attentive and there was a nice ambiance.

    Great food and service. Meat v good. V nice garden. Only downside is a lot of customers can’t close a door and you can hear the door slamming if you’re near it
