The bar
A beer list worth settling in for
Belgian beers are the main event, with English ales, local beers, cider, wine, spirits, and a dedicated beer menu alongside them. The movie-themed decor brings together film prints and unexpected touches, including a mounted Predator jigsaw and a photograph of Terry Wogan.
The garden
A tucked-away courtyard for sunny pints
The courtyard beer garden gives this little Clifton pub an outdoor corner away from the main road. It is dog friendly, with seating outside for drinks when the weather allows.
