Opposite the magnificent St Mary Redcliffe church, this comfortable one-bar Victorian pub has survived the redevelopment of almost everything around it. The pub was refurbished in 2018 and inside there is a range of tall seating at wooden tables, and padded booths. The flooring is partly wood and partly modern tiles, and there are some impressive ornate mirrors opposite the bar. Three changing cask beers are sourced from small to medium-sized breweries within a 15-mile radius of Bristol. The main meal menu is served at lunchtimes Monday to Friday, with a pizza menu available on weekday evenings. There's a seating area outside at the front of the pub which doubles as a smoking area.
