About Naked Racer

Part classic diner, part working motorcycle museum, this Cheltenham outpost pairs hearty feeds with an extraordinary collection of vintage bikes and transport relics. Regulars drop in for stacks of warm pancakes beside an open hearth, lingering over loose-leaf tea while taking in rare Brough Superiors and planes suspended overhead. Evenings shift gears toward pub plates, cold pints, and live bands, with tables set right among the polished chrome and leather.

  • Living Transport Museum: Dozens of vintage motorcycles, sidecars, and overhead aircraft flank the dining room.
  • Hearthside Dining: An open fireplace provides warmth alongside coffee, pancakes, and hearty burgers.
  • Live Music & Drinks: Evenings feature pub fare, drinks, and regular weekend band gigs.
