Review
Tucked around the corner from Kingsdown Parade, in Alfred Place, is The Green Man. This is a great little pub, which prides itself on being an ethical/organic pub and apparently the only one in Bristol doing this. The cider in here is mainly by Sheppys and what a nice selection it is too. From my experience, they like to change and add some guest ciders once in a while too to mix things up. This is a place where you can feel right at home and have a good natter. Read the rest of this entry »

Review
A true hidden gem in the heart of Kingsdown. This is a small and cosy pub, but still has the charm of a drinking hole from back in the day. At around £2.10 per pint, it still has the prices from back then too! This is quickly becoming one of my favourite locals. The bizarre thing about this place is the outside toilets with the amazing mural all over it. Not one I want to brave on this cold winter nights! Read the rest of this entry »
