This Grade II-listed building dating from 1810 was Bristol's first Wetherspoon pub. Centrally located it is a good start or end point for a pub tour of Bristol, with up to 8 guest beers available. Food is served from 8 am until 11pm. There is a quieter galleried room at the rear, but the Great Room does get very busy at peak times. The interior features Greek revival-style decor, a stunning ceiling with dome, portraits and memorabilia from its days as a businessmen's club. Disabled access is via the side entrance in Small Street, ring the door bell. It always gets fully involved with Wetherspoon Real Ale Real Cider and Gin festivals. For the 2 Real Ale Festivals racking, with cooling, is set up in the Great Room to serve from the cask.
