Formerly owned by Wadworth’s and then bought by the Bristol Beer Factory in 2008, this is a popular and much improved pub in an area of Bristol where decent, traditional boozers seem to be in short supply. Well worth the short stroll from Temple Meads station if you've got some time to kill whilst waiting for a train.
It’s a single room bar with rough, reclaimed boards on the floor and cream painted walls with pale blue wood panelling down below. There is a brick fireplace at one end which I have seen in use in the colder months and a courtyard garden. A pile of board games were stacked up in one corner and there was also a small bookcase. A number of brewery related photographs were on one of the walls.
Food wise the menu offered a concise selection of pub grub dishes, with options such as steak, burger, fish & chips, etc., with most of the main courses being somewhere around a tenner. A chicken & chorizo jambalaya was a decent and tasty dish which went down very well, as did the subsequent key lime pie. There were also a number of jars of nuts on the bar if you’re no after a full meal.
There was a good range of beers on tap which on this visit consisted of Electric Brewing Spilt Milk, Vibrant Forest Chinook, Arbor’s The Devil Made Me Brew It, Moor S’Hop and a trio from Bristol Beer Factory – Bristol Expat, Nova and Seven. There were also a few more keg options with the current choices listed on a blackboard, and a very extensive bottled selection with printed menus on the tables. Ciders meanwhile were Orchard Pig Reveller and Pilton Somerset Keeved Cider, the latter being dispensed from a box perched on the end of the bar.

Enjoyed our visit to this 2016 Good Beer Guide pub with a great selection of real ales available. We had a Bristol Beer Factory beer plus Boss Brawn.

Bare boarded, one room back street local that is in the charge of Bristol Beer Factory. Stripped wood tables, mixture of seating and rather cosmopolitan, 20's music playing and there are board games available.
8 hand pulls plus lots of craft beers. Beer was a bit warm for my taste
