Inside
A Georgian dockside ale house
Designed by John Strachan in 1722, the Shakespeare became a busy dockside inn in 1777 and is now Bristol’s longest-serving ale house. Settle in for traditional pub food, a choice of beers and a family- and dog-friendly welcome.
Outside
Garden drinks and evening plans
The beer garden offers space for a drink outside when the weather allows. Live music and Wednesday quiz nights add reasons to stay beyond a quick pint, while the pub’s Prince Street address puts Bristol Harbourside and Queen Square close by.
