A fantastic restaurant. The service was friendly and prompt, and we enjoyed outdoor seats on a warm Sunday afternoon. Top pizza and a lovely gelato to finished. Ideally located in central Cheltenham.

Great little pizza place. The sourdough base was tasty and the toppings fresh and generous. Very friendly staff

Our pizza cravings satisfied! Truly authentic Italian pizza, we ordered two and they were both really good and unique. We sat by the pizza station and our toddler was able to see the process. We will be back!

I'm always impressed with Franco Manca as a chain, it's easily my favourite pizza, I have yet to try better anywhere. We came here on a busy Saturday evening and I was very impressed. They had three hard working chefs who made the food very quickly and the restaurant staff were polite and friendly. I really can't moan, I mean we ordered our starters at an extremely busy time, and one of the chefs took the time to bring it to our table, which was a nice gesture given that they were worked off their feet. The food itself was absolutely brilliant as always, and we were lucky enough to secure the 5 pizza deal in January, so what I already to be considered a reasonably priced pizza was even more cheap. I will continue to speak highly about Franco Manca, no matter which restaurant you attend.

Lovely service from Dani: she took care of me and my order. It was served rapidly and with a huge smile. She also made me aware of the terrace upstairs for a better view of the road, perfect for springtime and summer. I've been to many Franco Manca's, but this one stands out for its amazing staff. Would recommend coming here and I will definitely become a regular. If I may also give one advice to management, it's to add a sign at the entrance mentioning the terrace upstairs: I was completely oblivious to it. I'm sure more customers would love to have their pizza here in the upcoming months.

Amazing place with delicious pizza and excellent service. Unfortunately I didn’t ask a name of waiter but lady was just incredibly friendly. Thank you so much for your kindness and smile! As we (4 people) celebrated my birthday restaurant gifted me their vanilla gelato which is absolutely yummy. Highly recommend this place! And 100% will come back

Very nice pizza for a good price. Salad tastes good, especially the tomatoes. Pizza featured in the picture is ‘Franco’s favourite’.

We came for a quick coffee while waiting for a lift, and were made very welcome and seated immediately. The coffee was very good - strong and full bodied - and the service was excellent and very friendly. The menu looked great, and we will definitely come again for a meal.
