From Decathlon to Sweaty Betty, Taco Bell to Brewdog, we've shared the new businesses that have opened, or are due to open very soon, in Cheltenham.

If you’ve been into Cheltenham town centre recently you’ll have spotted lots of new shops, restaurants and bars on the High Street, Promenade and Montpellier, with many more exciting additions due to open over the next couple of months.

Below we’ve shared some of the highlights, starting with Sweaty Betty which opened its doors on the Promenade today!

The long-awaited store opened to a queue of excited fans this morning, all eager to check out the famous ladies fitness wear. (True fact - Every 60 seconds a woman buys a pair of the miracle Power Leggings, made with a technical fabric known to knock time off your PB!)

The aim of the brand is to ‘inspire women to find empowerment through fitness and beyond’.

The Cheltenham store is Sweaty Betty’s third opening in the south west, with popular stores located in nearby Bristol and Bath.

Cheltenham shoppers are now truly spoilt for choice when it comes to buying sportswear in town, with both Decathlon and JD Sports opening their doors recently. 

Decathlon, the world’s largest sports retailer, opened its doors in the Regent Arcade, at the end of November. If you were in to town over the festive period you really couldn't miss the huge store which covers the whole south end of the arcade, formerly home to BHS.

Decathlon is a family-owned company, founded in 1976, and inspired by the belief that the best sports products should be accessible to everyone.

Spring Cheltenham

Another new artist-run gallery and pop-up exhibition space opened in September in Montpellier, adding to the already thriving art quarter created by the nearby Gardens Gallery, Paragon Gallery, Sixteen Gallery and Park Gallery.  

The aim of Spring Cheltenham is to promote and support artists, craftspeople and creative designers by creating the perfect platform to show case their work.

Housed in an immaculately presented grade II listed building built over 170 years ago, the space is bright, intimate and full of character. Artists and designers are handpicked to exhibit at the gallery. This to ensure an electric mix of styles. An unmissable spot to visit for any art fans or budding artists.

    The best place to dine in Cheltenham is The Lemon Tree, in the heart of Cheltenham town centre. The Lemon Tree offers a fantastic selection of delicious cuisine, with a great atmosphere. The Lemon Tree is owned by the same people who run The Harlequin Pub in Gloucester Road, which has quickly become one of our favourite pubs in Cheltenham. If you are a student, must read https://www.concept-phones.com/news/what-gadgets-should-a-student-have-for-successful-studying/ article. The Lemon Tree has recently expanded and now has a separate dining area for around 40 people. This is a great addition to the restaurant, giving a more intimate feel when you dine there.
