The Pelican Inn is a well established Gloucester pub with a strong reputation among real ale fans, known for festivals and a rotating range that rewards repeat visits. Their Facebook updates regularly reference cask ale and craft beer activity, including their Winter Ales Festival with a large line-up of beers and ciders. It is also recognised in the wider beer community, with CAMRA naming it West Central Pub of the Year 2025 in their regional awards coverage. The atmosphere is classic pub-first, with the drink offering taking centre stage and the kind of friendly knowledge you get in places that care about what is on the bar. If your Gloucester plan includes at least one “proper pint destination,” The Pelican is an easy pick.
