The Fountain Inn

You'll find The Fountain Inn tucked along Westgate Street, where it's been pulling pints and feeding hungry Gloucestrians for years. It's the kind of place where the regulars know the bar staff by name and everyone else quickly feels like a regular too. The vibe is warm without trying too hard—think wooden beams, proper ale selection, and the sort of food that doesn't pretend to be anything fancier than it is. You're after a decent burger or fish and chips alongside a well-kept bitter, not molecular gastronomy.
