Black Gold Coffee

Great cafe. Amazing selection of cakes and delicious hot chocolate. Also super comfy seats.

Brilliant little cafe, servicecwith a friendly smile and a loyalty scheme. The cafe has its own nostalgic atmosphere. It is popular at lunch times so get there early if you want a seat.

5 stars aren't enough for this lovely coffee shop. Friendly and helpful staff, lovely atmosphere.

The food was superb. A lovely range of fresh cakes, with some unusual flavours like banana and cinnamon, lemon and elderflower, along with Victoria sponge, coffee cake, carrot cake, brownies and more. We had delicious paninis and the coffee really was superb. The coffee was really flavourful. You can taste a real mix of sweet and fruit elements, perfectly roasted... I wish I could drink it every day.

If you come to Cheltenham you must try this place.

I had breakfast here and it has been really nice! The place is cozy and different from all the other coffee chains, offering various types of seatings and tables depending on what you prefer. As soon as you entry you can see all their amazing cakes and some bagels and sandwiches. The staff was friendly and quick, you pay straight away and then enjoy your meal at the table.

Jacket was lush! Really liked the shredded chicken for the coronation chicken topping. Decaff mocha was one of the best coffees I've had. I couldn't bring myself to buy a cake after all this due to cost... Shame there isn't a reduced slice rate after the purchase of a main and drink as id have jumped on it!! Staff really friendly and when I mentioned I didn't fancy salad with the jacket they offered crisps! Making a fussy pregnant lady very happy :)

WARNING!! Do NOT order food here. All the food items are from Sainsbury’s next door (saw them bring the bag in). Paid £4.20 for a cheese and tomato toastie made with kingsmill and and pre cut cheese slices. No seasoning. Totally dry and tasteless. To make matters worse, it wasn’t even fully toasted. A couple of walkers crisps on the side. In all, a 50p plate marked up to £4.20. We were also surprised by a warm (?) yoghurt granola bowl. Interesting experience eating hot yoghurt. Happy to pay for decent food, but in this case it’s blatant daylight robbery. Wish they just stuck to coffee.

Popped in for a quick bite, which turned into an enormous waffle 😂
Atmosphere is really cosy, staff are really lovely - super friendly and welcoming. The waffle was massive and delicious, although (this is always tricky) the cold toppings (fruit and cream) meant that the whole thing cooled down quickly which was a shame. Also had a chai latte. This (regular size) came in a decent sized mug, one you can hug! And it stayed hot for ages which meant I could take my time to actually enjoy it.
Really like it here and would definitely come again 🙂

Very busy coffee shop in the heart of Cheltenham. We didn't try any of the food offerings but did stop in for an afternoon coffee break. It was packed and there was a line to order. Friendly staff, warm finishings (physically and ambiance). My gingerbread chai latte was very sweet but I was able to water it down with more milk.
