A Warm Welcome
Welcome to Club Ocho, built because Cheltenham deserved somewhere that felt like this. A real home from home, in the middle of town.
The club is set within a beautifully restored Georgian townhouse on Imperial Square. It’s been built around the things we care about most: good conversation, good food and drink, and a calendar of events made to bring people together, not just fill a diary.
This page will give you a proper sense of who we are, who runs the place day to day, and the small details that make life at Ocho a bit easier.
“We can’t wait to welcome you.”
James McKeown and Ricardo Fearon,
Founders, Club Ocho


our purpose
We built Club Ocho to create genuine connections through food, drink, culture and creativity. You’ll feel it over long lunches at Mirari, quiet mornings in the Library, and evenings that spill happily into the Speakeasy. We hope you find your own favourite corner of the club soon.
Our Values
Culture. Art, music, fashion, literature and performance.
Curiosity. Interesting people meeting and sparking ideas off each other.
Community. People finding common ground, and relationships that last.
Creativity. Ideas colliding, and new ones taking shape.
Connectivity. Chance meetings that turn into real friendships.
Collaboration. People and businesses joining forces to do more together.
We’ve built a genuinely mixed, welcoming community, where every member has a hand in shaping what the club feels like.
