Popular Cotswold bakery Otis & Belle is opening its fourth venue in Cheltenham this June 2025.

Otis & Belle artisan Cotswold bakery is opening a brand-new venue this June 2025 in Cheltenham's pretty Montpellier area.

Founded in 2020, the brand currently has outlets in Moreton-in-Marsh, Stow-on-the-Wold and Broadway in the Cotswolds, with the Cheltenham site being its fourth. 

Known for its sourdough bread, viennoiserie and pastries made with a 32-year-old sourdough starter affectionately named 'The Professor', Cheltenham customers can expect a counter packed with flaky croissants, handmade pastries and slow-fermented bread, as well as freshly made coffee, with a commitment to 'quality, seasonality and traditional techniques'.

The 'thoughtfully designed' space will feature Otis & Belle's signature aesthetic, blending Cotswold countryside charm with classic French elegance. 

Alongside its High Street bakeries, Otis & Belle also supplies the wholesale market with its high-end bakes.

Founder Will Alexander, who studied at Le Cordon Bleu, said: 'We’ve long admired Cheltenham’s vibrant food culture and beautiful architecture and Montpellier felt like a natural home for Otis & Belle.

'We’re thrilled to join the community and can’t wait to welcome both loyal and new customers through our doors.'

Otis & Belle's Cheltenham bakery is due to open on Friday 6 June 2025 at 6 Montpellier Walk.
