About The Garden of Good & Evil

The Garden of Good & Evil is a tapas and wine bar at 13 Station Road in Cheltenham, close to Cheltenham station with parking nearby. Inside there is a brick-walled bar and dining room; out the back is the garden the bar is named after, a sheltered courtyard planted with greenery that stays comfortable through winter. The kitchen cooks share plates with a Spanish lean and some South American touches, from croquetas and empanadas to paella, with churros to finish. There are several ways to host a function. The undercover courtyard has a weatherproof roof, overhead heating and a big screen, and holds up to 120 for a cocktail event with its own service and a private entrance. The dining room seats up to 30 for lunch, dinner or even a private breakfast, and suits family birthdays and work groups on a set menu. The outdoor terrace takes up to 60 under a large umbrella, with optional heating and room for acoustic music. For larger groups, the whole bar can be hired exclusively. Functions run on food packages, priced from $32 per person, with drink options added to suit, in either a cocktail or seated format. The team handles birthdays, engagements, baby showers, company presentations and Christmas parties, and replies to enquiries within a day. Tables for up to 30 can also be booked online for a less formal get-together.

Great find in Cheltenham. Delicious menu. My favorite is the houlami chips. The sauce with it is soooo good. Great cozy feel inside and also an outside courtyard. I go there fairly frequently. Can highly recommend

Played for a small marriage proposal / engagement party here back in October. Was impressed by the service and flexibility of the friendly staff, the food, and the beer! A little gem tucked away in Cheltenham.
