Pittville Pump Room Pop-Up
We have exciting news! We’re throwing open the doors and popping up with a new café at the Pump Room, open every day from 9:30am to 4:30pm.
Learn more about the fascinating history of one of Cheltenham’s most iconic landmarks with our walk-through display, and share your ideas for the future of this much-loved community space. Curated by the team from The Wilson Art Gallery and Museum, the café design celebrates the Pump Room’s Georgian heritage with a playful, contemporary twist.
The pop-up will launch with live music from Lord Irving (Carey Andrews) on Thursday 30 October, followed by Onika Venus on Friday 31 October. Throughout the month, a programme of free live music and talks will showcase local talent, including laid-back jazz from Ben Hands and Hallam Kite, open mic sessions, and performances from Dan Lewis.
The café menu blends creativity and comfort, featuring freshly made brunches, light bites, seasonal dishes and homemade cakes, served alongside artisan coffee, luxury hot chocolate and a range of loose-leaf teas to enjoy in or take away.
The Pittville Pump Room Pop-Up runs from 30 October to 28 November. Find out more by clicking here.
