Former Oasis star Liam Gallagher stunned star-struck café staff when he dropped in to a Cotswold town for a bite to eat.

The younger Gallagher brother dropped in to The Canteen in Nailsworth just before Christmas with his family.

“He came in with his girlfriend and his son,” said owner of The Canteen, Caroline Saturley, who also runs The Vault in the town and The Hog pub in Horsley with husband Greg.

She said chef Sasha Jenner recognised him straight away, with girlfriend Debbie Gwyther and son Gene when they came in a few days before Christmas.

“All the girls behind the counter were like ‘Oh my God!’ and couldn’t believe he had been in.

“They were all really lovely – they ordered coffee and chocolate brownies to take away and they said the brownies were amazing, and that they’d be back.”

Nailsworth has become something of a celebrity hangout in recent years, with David and Victoria Beckham popping in to K’n’G Convenience nearby in Old Market in 2014, Kim Cattrall and Dame Judi Dench shopping in William’s Kitchen delicatessen and fishmongers, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry renting outfits for fancy dress parties in Cotswold Costumes.

It’s not the first time that a former Oasis member has been spotted in Gloucestershire - Liam’s brother Noel has been seen in Newent and Taynton with former Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft, who has lived in Taynton since 1998.

And Oasis partly recorded their first album, Definitely Maybe, over the Welsh border at Monnow Valley studios in Monmouth.
