Restaurants in Gloucester are safely welcoming diners back for socially distanced meal in the city.
From innovative independents to firm family favourites and high street chains, Gloucester’s restaurants are open and ready to safely welcome diners back.
From meze with a view to adventurous Asian fusion food cooked on hot stones, SoGlos has rounded up nine of the tastiest places to eat in the city, all with social distancing in place.
Gloucester City Council has partnered with Gloucester BID, Eastgate Shopping Centre, Gloucester Quays and King’s Walk to get Gloucester good to go.
It’s been working behind the scenes to help Gloucester’s restaurants put safety measures in place, from regular cleaning schedules to social distancing stickers, so dining in the city is as safe as can be. Gloucester Quays has even installed a brand new, covered outdoor seating area for socially distanced alfresco dining in all weather.
