Good Beer Guide 2023 pub, although I did try an arbor shangri la on keg. Their cans are so pretty, I think it will be my next order.

Smart interior, with distinctive gold embossed wall paper. King of the pub furniture with some lovely chesterfield armchairs. Why I didnt insist on these when Mrs M refreshed the lounge, I will never know.

Downstairs hosts a large performance room and looks like they have regular comedy nights.

Would be happy to call this my local.

Raised above street level with a main room with long bar,a downstairs lounge not visited.The five pumps were dispensing Guinea Best, Tiny Rebel Cwtch,and Tapstone Samona and Astridge Big Apple Cider leaving one handle vacant. The background Reggae sound track but in general this pub didn't really grab me.

In the now backstreets of Bristol but perhaps that's to its advantage. This is a venerable old pub that seems to have a new lease of life without too much damage done inside. Enter up some steps to find a long and narrow interior with the bar running most of the length of the room. An old varnished wood floor, gold and green flock wallpaper, pew seating wood panelling (which has been painted racing green, one of the few colours you can ever paint the panelling without utterly ruining it!). Some incongruous pop art prints adorned the walls whilst a ‘just the right level’ modern jazz funk soundtrack played. Five pumps with four ales and a cider; 2x Bath (Gem and Lansdown - after a false start and a cloudy half, I got a good Lansdown), Clouded Minds (fair) and New Bristol Brewery Marshmallow Stout (good) alongside a cider. Friendly young barman who was happy to chat. A good local atmosphere within. I enjoyed it here and would make a point of doing it again, even though the beer quality wasn’t quite stellar. 7.5
