Brewhouse & Kitchen, Bristol

A large pub just off of the Whiteladies Road strip, known as Crockers for many years, then a spell as some Irish themed pub as I recall, and now called The Hill. It seems to be more of a sports bar than your traditional pub, with a pool table at one end, a large projector screen at the other and another four plasma’s dotted around, which seemed a little excessive. They were all showing a football match, and the commentary was on a little too loudly. There’s a long bar opposite you as you walk in, and a smaller bar in the corner which is used for food preparation. There’s a stone baked pizza oven in the corner which is an interesting feature, and it’s pizzas that the menu majors on, with a good choice of eight or nine of them and a very limited choice of anything else. There’s a couple of leather sofa’s with low tables down at one end and a few leather covered stools as well. A few of the tables in the large window offer a good view of the street outside. The pub seemed a bit male dominated, with several guys sporting tattoos. Beers on offer were just Doom Bar and keg Bombadier, the latter of which appeared to be off. The cider was Blackthorn.
