Parler in Cheltenham is a stylish café-bar that blends vintage Parisian charm with the creative spirit of modern-day Cheltenham. Parler’s blend of vintage aesthetics, curated drinks, and soulful music makes it a standout spot in Cheltenham’s cultural scene.
Located on Clarence Street, Parler is a thoughtfully curated corner spot that invites guests to slow down, savour the moment, and enjoy a unique mix of culture, conversation, and indulgence. Housed in a Georgian building, the interiors are a nostalgic nod to 60s and 70s design, featuring warm tones, analogue details, and a vinyl-powered sound system that sets a mellow, immersive tone throughout the space.

The drinks list is designed to reflect Parler’s ethos - thoughtful, expressive, and rooted in quality.
Music plays a central role in the experience, with an audiophile sound system tuned for warmth and clarity. The programming is eclectic, drawing inspiration from Cheltenham’s jazz heritage and its emerging creative communities.
