24-Hour Licence

Café René was the first pub in Gloucester to obtain a 24-hour licence and still have it today. Trading for more than 13 years in the city centre.

Paul Soden opened Café René and turned it into a pub that he would like to eat and drink in. He created an atmosphere that encourages everyone to enjoy food, drink, music, and most importantly each other.
