Pub in Bristol 16:42 - Apr 10 with 2565 views

We're on the 09.57 train so arriving to Bristol quite early. Can anyone recommend an away-fan-friendly pub from previous visits?

In an ideal world, somewhere also showing Sky Sports so we can settle in afterwards for Wolves-Brighton on the telly?

Thanks in advance!

I'm going to try The Orchard Inn on the river. Walkable from Temple Meads and Ashton Gate not much further. Has good reviews, away fans welcome and some award winning Ciders. Just hope its the weather for it!

3 of us on same train (that ain't early!), you could try The Long Bar in Old Market St or The Ostrich. There's shite loads of drinkers on the waterfront etc. your choice

Bristol is great for pubs but poor for pubs that show football.

The drawbridge on the centre next to the hippodrome does as does one in the harbour side... can't remember it's name - it's just down from the watershed though. Both are lloyds style bars though.

All the pubs on north street are good and local to the ground. The steam crane and spotted cow won't let you in with colours but are good pubs. The tobacco factory is big, 5 mins from the ground and home and away mix freely.

Ostrich good, the Shakespeare is fine. As is the Nova Scotia. All are around the harbour.

The bookshop on north street is for real ale types. Avoid anything on west street. Every where round temple meads is a shit hole do head into central (the harbour side) as soon as you get there.

The old duke and the langdoggertrau on king street are good and king street in general is s decent area.

Locals are mostly friendly but there is an element round bedminster... two wolves fans went to a&e on Saturday after getting a kicking from some city bell ends.
