Raising the foodie steaks in Cheltenham

THE countdown is on to the launch of Son of Steak at The Brewery Quarter in Cheltenham.

Due to open its doors on Monday, September 23, the restaurant is the second to open in the UK following the success of its first hotspot in Nottingham.

And it’s all action stations with the firm currently recruiting for 20 new jobs with benefits that include 28 days’ holiday, flexible shifts and a 33% discount at more than 1,700 pubs across the UK.

General Manager Phil Davies said: “We’re so excited to be coming to The Brewery Quarter. Cheltenham is such a vibrant town with so much going on, we wanted a slice of the action too!

“We’ll be bringing fast, ‘no bull’ good quality steak and creating the perfect destination for casual meet ups over fantastic food and drinks.

“With us being a new, exciting brand, the question of deciding where we’d launch our second site was really important to us. We’ve chosen an area of town that is growing in popularity and attracting a lot of great brands. For us The Brewery Quarter has created the perfect leisure and lifestyle destination for any occasion.”

Over the next few weeks the site will undergo an extensive refurbishment and will create 106 covers inside with a further 42 al fresco options

Once open, diners can expect a range of hand cut, seared succulent steaks ranging from Son of Steak’s masterpiece 8oz flat iron for £7.95 up to a 12oz ribeye priced at £16.75.

Secret recipe marinated chicken will feature alongside burgers, wings and salads as well as a host of sides, including hand chipped skin-on chips and gourmet selections of fiery smashed aubergine and buttered peas and asparagus.

Many dishes will be prepared from Son of Steak’s Robata grill and flat iron steak and chicken are expected to become firm foodie favourites.

Vegan dishes will also be served including ‘The Incredible Vegan Burger’ made from natural protein, soya and wheat.

Eat in and takeaway speedy lunches will start from £5.95 for a main and side dish, with wraps, salads and burgers on the menu. Dishes will also be available to order from Deliveroo.

Known for its chilled, zesty Bacardi taptail mojitos, drinks will be flowing along with dishes typically being prepared within 10 minutes making it the perfect place for quick catch ups, working lunches and pre-movie meals.

The result? Tender cuts and refreshing drinks at the table in no time.
