Bristol's first micropub opened in December 2015 and was the local CAMRA Pub of the Year in 2017, and runner up in 2019. It is close to the Memorial Stadium and Gloucestershire County Cricket ground. Popular and friendly, it follows the micropub tradition of focusing on good beer and conversation, with no music or TV. It prides itself on an ever-changing beer selection and normally has of up to seven ales, served by gravity. Most are sourced from Bristol and the surrounding counties. They try to feature a gluten free and a vegan option, every day. It has close links with the local Ashley Down Brewery. Wine and bar snacks are also served, but no keg beer, bottled beer, lager or cider. Two popular beer festivals are normally held each year. Open Noon-9:30pm on Bristol Rovers matchdays.
