Well I have to say Loius I agree that the pub was a shambles! I noticed a weed they had failed to dig up by the front door and this instantly put me into a rather irritated and highly critical mood. In addition I was apoplectic as I entered and the door ( avoiding the weed) I noticed the door mat was an oval shape and I have an irrational fear of this shape.

In better weather I'm sure the extensive beer garden is a pleasure. Friendly staff who were very keen to make suggestions based on our preferences.
The pub is also really handy for Temple Meads station so of you've got a train to catch it's worth leaving extra time to stop in...
