33 The Rum Bar Cheltenham

Welcome to 33 The Rum Bar, your new favourite bar in Cheltenham…

From cane to glass – from amber crystals of raw cane to that honeyed drip rolling down the neck of the rum bottle – from the humming atmosphere of barely-tamed cane field to mouth-wateringly sweet, nutty, spicy aromas paired with the intimate ambience only the finest rum bars offer…

This is 33 The Rum Bar.

Whether you’re a devotee to your ron añejo or happy to take on anything so long as it’s golden, we believe a love of rum is too good not to share. Our passion means that we are always tracking down the very richest, smoothest rums and spirits the world has to offer. Now, our collection features more than 150 labels for you to explore…and that’s just one good reason we consider 33 The Rum Bar to be one of the best cocktail bars in Cheltenham.

We offer a cosy, dog-friendly rum and cocktail bar just out of town.

Don’t love rum as much as we do?

Don’t worry…

The bar is always stocked with other popular spirits, all cherry-picked by us for our hand-crafted cocktails, along with beer, cider, wine, soft drinks, and a few mocktails, too.

Long or short, on the rocks or smooth sailing, light or robust…we’ve made our mark as one of the best rum and cocktail bars Cheltenham has seen thanks to our knack for knowing exactly how to fill your glass right.

And, if you are open to a bit of advice, our bartenders are always eager to guide you toward a rum that may just prompt a change of heart…

Our Story

My wife and I are avid rum lovers, and 33 The Rum Bar is our passion project.

We’ve been together for more than 20 years. In our spare time, we’ve collected plenty of bar mats and passport stamps – sampling some of the very best bars in Cheltenham and much, much further afield. It was during a trip to a speciality rum bar in New York City that we found ourselves in particularly good spirits (literally and metaphorically) and the idea hit us: why not us?

Turning all that passion and knowledge into something tangible and establishing a Cheltenham rum bar that showcases the very best from around the world? We couldn’t pass it up. After that, the ideas – like the rum – never stopped flowing.

After returning to the UK, we found the perfect spot which, as it happens, is located opposite our other passion, Magnum Circus Tattoo Studio.

Intimate, welcoming, and away from Cheltenham’s hustle and bustle, 33 The Rum Bar has everything you’d expect from one of the best bars in Cheltenham.
