It is what it is!…read more This place is (relatively) cheap and cheerful and provides a menu of pub classics and a large selection of grilled meats. The staff are very friendly and try their best to make things go smoothly. The food is good, not great and definitely not as bad as some other cheap pub chains. The decor is a bit dated but this is a place where you go to watch the game or with the kids for a burger not a romantic dinner for two and for that it's fine. All in all this place is ok, not great but definitely not bad either.

The Air Balloon was a great option for the occasional long lunch and couple of drinks with work colleagues when the grind of admin got a bit too much to bear. They have a midweek lunch club, where a selection of main meals from the menu is available with a drink and a dessert, all for only a fiver! That's Wetherspoons beating prices, right there. They also do a 2 for 1 offer on all meals, all day, so if you and a friend can't find anything you fancy on the £5 menu, you can still be sure of grabbing a bargain. The food is pretty standard stuff, but for these prices you really can't complain.

The ales are still as good today, including Doombar (and 11 other cask ales for your tasting pleasure). The pub is located opposite the Horfield Sports centre (oh the choice you'll have to make - gym or pub) an imposing old building literally on the green. Inside is a bit faux-antique, but warm and inviting all the same. Food smells wafting from the place when I was there were stomach-rumblingly good, unfortunately I've yet to taste the grub. All the more reason to go back.

I would definitely think twice if anyone is thinking of booking The BEEHIVE in the future. How you can run a business and not communicate with your potential customers is beyond me.

The Beehive has been in operation since 1936 but in recent years suffered a bit of a downfall…read moreleading to its eventual demise late 2008. Luckily for the surrounding pub-goes it was re-opened 3 months later, with new owners and a bit of a makeover. I often drive past the pub after work to see many a car parked outside, so one day I popped in! I found the pub roughly split into two sections, the Sports Bar and the Family Section. The Sports Bar great for a lively Friday and the Family Area better suited for the Sunday Roast outing - which by the way I would highly recommend. Prices are reasonable all round and they have managed to build up a reputation for good, honest food. It's not official but I hear on the grape vine that The Beehive may have the biggest beer garden in Bristol - judge for yourself!

Rough, dirty, smelly - just some of the adjectives to describe this pub. When I first moved to…read moreBristol a few years ago I used to frequent this pub with my friends as we lived nearby, and the drinks were cheap. It was ok then - a little rough maybe but the lounge area wasn't so bad and they had a turn on most Friday and Saturday nights. Now, it's quite different - the lounge has a 'crowd' of ten to twenty people that are in there all the time, day and night. There's nothing wrong with that, or with them, but a crowd in a pub makes it seem 'rough', if you know what I mean. The drinks are reaonably priced, however, but there is little variety. Drugs are also a big problem in this pub. There used to be a nightclub attached, called Coutney's, but I think this has finally been closed down. I haven't seen much violence either inside or outside this pub, though, so it can't be so bad. Other pubs on the street are not much better, and one is even worse - I'd advise you either went down to the George at the bottom of Filton Avenue, or headed towards Gloucester Rd for a nicer pub.

I normally go for the steaks and especially the Mixed Steak meal. You need a big appetite to eat it all! The soup of the day is my usual starter and it changes frequently! Along with bread n butter for dipping. Although the few puddings I've tried are exceptional don't order one until you finish the main course coz you may well be too full! And look out for the offers, depending on what day it is. They could have a bigger selection of beers although there should be one that you will be familiar with. Great atmosphere with many smiley faces as people chat and enjoy their food. Couple of fun game/gambling machines if you like that kinda thing. Fresh well looked after toilets. Altogether a great eat out especially if you are local.
