Sunday Brunch Near Kingsholm

Sunday mornings deserve a proper start, and for those near Kingsholm looking for somewhere relaxed to enjoy Sunday brunch, Oakwood Hotel offers a laid-back setting just outside Gloucester, with a menu built around good coffee, fresh ingredients, and no reason to rush.

Brunch at Oakwood sits somewhere between breakfast and lunch, both in timing and in what’s on the menu. Expect a mix of classic brunch dishes — think eggs cooked a few different ways, pastries, and heartier plates — alongside lighter options for those who’d rather ease into the day. Our kitchen takes the same approach to brunch as it does to the rest of our menu: quality ingredients, thoughtfully prepared, without unnecessary complication.

The Setting

Sunday brunch is typically served in The Drawing Room, a relaxed, comfortable space suited to a slow start to the day — good natural light, comfortable seating, and an atmosphere that doesn’t rush guests through their meal. On a mild morning, some guests prefer to take brunch out on The Terrace, weather permitting, enjoying the view over the Gloucestershire countryside while they eat.

What to Expect on the Menu

Our brunch menu draws on the same sourcing standards as the rest of our dining offering, with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients and produce from across Gloucestershire where we can. Alongside food, our coffee is taken seriously — properly made, not an afterthought — and for those wanting to add a little something extra to the morning, a Bloody Mary or a glass of fizz is usually available.

Suitable for Every Kind of Sunday

Whether you’re catching up with friends, treating yourself to a slow solo morning, or bringing the family together before the rest of the day gets busy, Sunday brunch at Oakwood works for a range of occasions. Our team is happy to accommodate dietary requirements with advance notice, and larger groups are welcome, though we’d recommend booking ahead at busier times.

Booking Your Table

While walk-ins are often possible for smaller groups, we’d recommend booking ahead for Sunday brunch, particularly for larger tables or during busier periods.

We’ve tried to build that into the whole experience at Oakwood — from the pace of service to the setting itself — so a Sunday morning visit near Kingsholm feels like a genuine pause before the week ahead, rather than another meal to fit in around other plans.

Whether you visit weekly or drop in occasionally, the aim is the same each time: a brunch that feels worth getting out of bed for, in a setting that doesn’t push you back out the door.
