Reopening in May 2023 under the new name, this was Bristol's second micropub when it first opened in April 2016 in converted shop premises. The pub won local CAMRA Pub of the Year in 2018. Conversation rules, there being no recorded music, TV, gaming machines or wifi, and where electronic communication devices should be used with discretion. Real ales are dispensed from up to five handpumps, with a dark ale usually available. Up to three traditional ciders are available from bags-in-boxes. A selection of wines and spirits is available, and there is a 'dog bar' providing water and biscuits in aid of the Holly Hedge Dog Sanctuary. Food consists of simple bar snacks including filled rolls, pies and cockles. Wall space is available for monthly art exhibitions by local artists, and there is a book swap facility. Last orders is called half an hour before closing due to licencing restrictions. Quiz night is every first and third Wednesday of the month, with acoustic live music on the second and sometimes the fourth. Live music also features on the second Saturday of the month, and on one Sunday a traditional Irish session takes place, check the Facebook page for all details.
