Pub · Bristol
Tucked away near Temple Meads Quays, this small Bristol pub has become a Sunday roast destination — the salt marsh lamb and the beef come in huge portions with rich gravy, proper roast potatoes, and cauliflower cheese generous enough to share between two. The pork belly with its crackling gets just as much praise, and there's a vegan roast plus gluten-free beers if that matters to you. Staff are chatty and warm, there are high chairs and a kids' menu, buggy access, outdoor seating and free parking. Two honest notes: it's genuinely tight for large groups, so book ahead because weekends fill fast, and the toilets are dated in a way regulars find charming rather than off-putting. One visitor calls it their "number 1 spot" for showing friends around Bristol.
