Never have I been to a pub where a pint of shandy half and half is charged more than a regular pint. Rip off, staff néed to get their act together.

Great find in Bristol during my short stay! Loved the vibes, the garden, the drinks and really lovely staff.

I was here, today, for my Aunt's funeral reception. The place is like the tardis! It looks small from the outside. Once inside, it goes on and on Excellent beer and smoking garden and great for parking I didn't eat here The staff, even though I offended them immediately, were very understanding and friendly. They were both incredibly efficient. Fast and clean Nice polite girls all very welcoming Seems to attract a nice crowd. The regulars were also very welcoming Definitely recommend it.
