“ Went in here on a chance looking for a coffee and enjoyed a delicious different breakfast. I had the quesadilla my husband had the full English. Loved the extensive menu. Wishing we lived nearer as we would visit often. Tapas looked very inviting . The indoor decor was amazing and added to the ambience. The building was a snooker hall, didn't look a lot from outside but once in and the upstairs were beautifully adorned. Would highly recommend and it was very busy when we were there on a Sunday and service was good. ”

“ Called by here on Monday whilst visiting Stroud for the first time. My wife and I tried the soup in a mug with tuna melt sandwich which was sublime. Staff remember who may have been the manager was having his lunch and working by us and was very friendly with our two dogs. We love the lounges and they are usually our place to go for food when we’re travelling around the country when we’re away from home. The Curio was as good as we’ve found and as friendly as ever. They also have a larger area upstairs. Thanks to that manager for making us feel so welcome too. ”
