This popular community pub had a makeover in August 2026 which included a new bar counter and refurbishing the toilets. It welcomes a wide range of customers and has 12 handpulls for cask ale, with the choice of the full dozen often available at weekends, as well as two real ciders and several craft keg taps. Formerly a Dawkins pub, it serves a wide range of styles of cask ale, and local Bristol and regional South-West breweries often feature, regularly including a low- or no-alcohol option . There is a good selection of single malt whiskeys. The interior is horseshoe-shaped, with a variety of furniture, a large array of venerable pumpclips on the walls, and stained-glass windows. To one side of the pub is a patio garden with a covered seating area. Japanese food is available in the evenings, with a reduced menu on Sundays and Mondays. There are occasional DJ sets that add to the convivial atmosphere.
