Arcadia Ale and Wine Bar, Headingley

Arcadia has created a bit of a problem for itself with the extension. It's now twice the size but the bar is the same size as it was before. The queues at the bar on a Friday and Saturday night can be extensive (10-15 minutes to get served). They have started to do some table service I think to mitigate the problem. It's still the best ale pub in Headingley by a country mile though.

The Bowl Inn, Lower Almondsbury

I believe it's been taken over by Brains in 2009. They now stock a good range of ales and yes I'd echo the previous comment that it certainly wasn't more than �3.00 a pint! It's a classic village local this one - very cosy and not built for those of more statuesque proportions (i.e. you might have to duck occasionally). Well worth checking out just a couple of miles off the M5.

The Kings Head, Bayswater

I thought this was a pretty good pub. Decent range of ales and better than average pub grub. Non-smoking area too which is nice when you want to have food.
