We opted for the 2 course Sunday roast dinner (2 courses for £16.95) - we both chose roast beef which came with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, plenty of vegetables and delicious roast beef gravy. It was excellent and the desserts we chose - brownie and sticky toffee pudding were fantastic! The service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. This is a great option if you are near Bristol Airport and need something to eat.

Driving through the countryside we stumbled across this pub/tasting for Thatchers cider and man…read morewere we happy we stopped. The grounds are wonderful, reminds me of a winery. Tons of outdoor seating and a nice lawn for kids to run around. The inside has multiple dining areas. We sat at a high top near the bar. There are lots of windows so it is very bright and vibrant. The food was wonderful. we just ordered appetizers, the charcuterie plate and some chips. The chips are cut super thick and were wonderful and the charcuterie plate was very good! We saw people ordering the burger and man did it look good! The staff here was great and helpful in choosing a cider. I ordered the Thatchers Dry and Krista got the cider flight with the dry, cheddar and one other i can't remember. She enjoyed all 3. The Thatchers cider brewhouse is behind this restaurant. Beautiful grounds. Also they allow dogs inside and out so feel free to bring the pooch! love this place, hope to be back some day

A lovely local pub in Winterbourne Down…read more This has been my family's local pub for around 20 years and it hasn't changed one bit. It's still as charming, still has the same locals, still the same landlord and, I think, still the same roaring log fire. The Cross Hands doesn't do food, but it does do lots of guest ciders, ales and a brilliant atmosphere. The landlord and landlady (Pete and Lesley) are great (Pete is the spitting image of Peter Stringfellow - with open shirt and hairy chest) and make you feel like part of the furniture - which can make leaving quite difficult at times! Friday nights are good fun. Typical local pub style. A bit of cheese on the jukebox and a good mix of young'ens and old'ens to keep it interesting from one end of the pub to the other. But the best thing about this pub isn't its huge back garden. It isn't the fact you can use one of their massive BBQ's and bring your own meat/food. It isn't even the regular events they hold in the summer with live bands and cider in boxes. The best thing about the Cross Hands is the pub dog. A beautiful Staffordshire Bull terrier who has the gentlest demeanour and wonderful personality. She'll pin her belly to the ground and wiggle her way over to say hello. All the while snorting like a little pig. She has her own arm chair and sits with the locals who play cards on the big round table from 4pm every day. This is a lovely little boozer that has a huge garden for the summer and wonderful warm log fire for the winter. As it is out of town, you can knock 40-80p off the price of pint. A must if you're in the area.

This place has tons of character and a great choice of beers ciders and ales all at a very reasonable price.

Stick a lepord print thong on him and marvel at the way he transform into Peter Stringfellow oh yeah ! All in all a class bozzer in the country.

Terrible experience! Booked 3 rooms weeks in advance (plus another 2 rooms booked separately) and…read morecheck in was advertised as 14:00, our party arrived at around 18:00 to be told the rooms hadn't been cleaned yet, and no indication of time they would be ready. The staff seemed to have no idea of what was going on and just kept telling us 'there's nothing we can do we're short staffed'. There was no manager on site and nobody who was able to help us. The rooms were eventually 'ready' at around 19:15. We had travelled for a surprise party we were attending in Nailsea and this made all of us late and missing the time we were due to arrive. Once in the rooms it was clear they had been rushed and were all in need of a deep clean and some TLC. Thick dust on skirting boards, stained carpets covered in bits, dirty shower screens, splatters down the walls and just generally very very grubby. It's obvious they've not been properly cleaned in a long time. The girl that was there cleaning was doing the best she could but had told us that she hadn't been called in until well after 14:00 when the rooms should have been ready. If we didn't have somewhere to be, and hadn't paid in advance, we most definitely would have found somewhere else to stay. In the morning we opened the window to let in some fresh air, as the rooms were very warm, only to find our room was above the staff smoking area. It instantly made our room stink of cigarette smoke as well as hearing the staff swearing and hollering below. Breakfast consisted of some pre packed pastries and dirty glasses for the juice, we had to go and ask for some clean glasses from the bar. The 'manager' was on site the following morning sat in the bar area. He was apparently aware of the issues but made no effort to come over to us with an apology or any solution or even bother to make contact with us. When we approached him all he kept repeating was 'I apologise but were short staffed, there's nothing I can do'. THATS YOUR JOB AS A MANAGER! I fully appreciate that things happen, it's life and things don't always go to plan, but it's the way things are dealt with. We received zero communication in advance to say there may be a delay with our room, this would have enabled us to make alternate plans etc. He then told us that it would be the same situation that evening for other guests arriving, with no indication of him or the other members of staff on site making any effort to solve the the situation and start cleaning rooms ready. They basically did not really care. Overall a terrible experience and would not stay here or recommended to anyone. If you want a clean room and a decent nights stay head to the Rising Sun down the road!
