Blackthorn _ left this review about The Bridge End Inn
An attractive white stonewashed pub at the bottom of town next to the river. Inside it’s quite olde worlde, with a flagstone floor around the bar, beams on the ceiling and plenty of wood panelling on the walls and the bar counter.
There’s a large selection of jugs and pots hanging from the ceiling as well as on the shelves. There was a plasma on the wall at one end which looked out of place, but fortunately this was off when we visited. There is also a log burning stove or similar in the fireplace at the end of the bar and even a pillar right through one of the tables which was an unusual feature. A blackboard listed a small selection of bar snacks that were available.
The bulk of the pub however seems to be given over to more of a restaurant area which is off to the left. At the entrance to this was a reception desk and a lady with a big open diary presumably to check your booking. The inference from this was that casual drinkers would not be welcome, so we didn’t venture in here.
There is a small beer garden next to the river with a great view of the bridge. Lots of signs warned that this was a strictly private beer garden for pub customers only, so don’t consider venturing in here if you haven’t bought a pint!
There were several beers to choose from, although possibly nothing that inspiring - Rev. James, HB, Bass, Old Speckled Hen and Hobgoblin. Ciders were Strongbow and Stowford Press.
