The places you can watch the FA Cup final showdown between Chelsea and Manchester United in Gloucestershire

It is all set to be a pulsating final between Chelsea and Manchester United and here are all of the pubs where you can watch the game.

The Spectre, Cheltenham

The Spectre is located on the high street and will be open from nine o’clock on the day of the final. With it expected to be a sunny day on the day of the final in Gloucestershire, there is the extra incentive that you can buy a pint and soak in the sunshine outside, with there being a seating area at the front of the pub.

There are various options when it comes to food and drink as well, with the pub selling burgers. The pub is also selling a classic pie and a drink for £5.99.

The Lansdown Bar, Cheltenham

This is a fantastic pub, which is located at the start of Lansdown Road, in Cheltenham. You can choose from a variety of different food and drink which is on display in the pub.

There is also a wonderful outside, which is slightly bigger than the Spectre pub and has a wonderful forestry outdoor environment, which is a pleasant experience for all punters who come to the pub, in-spite of it being a bit upmarket.

The Abbey, Gloucester

The Abbey is a family friendly pub in Gloucester, which is very similar to The Spectre menu. You can get a burger and a drink for as little as the £6.29.

It is also a great pub to watch sport, and with the FA Cup final on Saturday, there will no doubt be a superb atmosphere at the Gloucester-based pub come Saturday – and it has the added incentive of the pub closing at the slightly later time of 12 am on saturday for those fans who want to make a day out of it.

Frog & Fiddle, Cheltenham

One of the most exciting, vibrant and entertaining sports clubs in Cheltenham. There are screens everyone and all of the staff are friendly.

This pub is a must for all sports fans and there will no doubt be packed out for Saturday’s FA Cup final – there are also pool tables, as well as live music late on into the night, with the bar shutting at one o’clock in the morning.

The Shamrock, Cheltenham

Lets get this out of the way first, the Shamrock isn’t the most glamorous of pubs. However, it is great for sport – and if you fancy a quiet pint in front of the TV, then this is the place for you.

There is the added motive of course that it is the only Irish pub in Cheltenham, which can often create a nice friendly atmosphere.
