| Fantastic pub I never knew existed until boxing day when I popped in and quaffed a delightful pint of Otley ale. The service was most welcoming and the pub very comfortable. Shall most definately return,8/10 fat_beer_badger - 23 Feb 2012 19:36 |

| This is a sister pub to The Windmill in Bedminster and The Pipe & Slippers in Montpelier. In many ways it feels more like a caf�/bar than your traditional pub, in spite of a good array of hand pumps facing you as soon as you walk in, and the majority of punters appeared to be eating on our visit. It looks like the sort of place that would attract plenty of �yummy mummies� during the day, although they do have a stated policy of no kids after 7:30pm which makes a nice change. It�s a U-shaped pub with a dominant marble bar across the middle. There�s colour scheme is mostly a slightly depressing shade of dark green, and there is also much wooden cladding both on the walls and making features such as individual booths on the right hand side of the bar as well as an attractive parquet wooden floor. The left hand side is of a more open design, with a fresher white-washed wall covered in a large variety of different mirrors. There are a few benches on a small decking area at the front of the pub to watch the world go by as well as a beer garden apparently, although we didn�t check this out on our visit. Staff seemed friendly enough. There�s a reasonably succinct menu consisting of Tom�s Pies (from Devon) and a selection of snacks, tapas, etc. There was also a special board with a few additional starters, mains and deserts. The pies were very pleasant, and good value at �4.40. That said, by the time you�ve added the obligatory mash, peas and gravy the price had crept up to �7.50 but we still thought it reasonable value for a decent dish. Beers on tap were BBF Sunrise and No. 7, Bath�s Barnstormer and Goff Brewery�s Jouster from the Cotswolds. Ciders were Thatcher�s Gold, Orchard Pig and a welsh Farmhouse Cider. The menu also mentioned Addlestones, although I didn�t spot this on the bar. Blackthorn - 28 Oct 2010 07:46 |
| Bristol Beer Factory Red, Sunrise and No7 with Bath Barnstormer. Real cider as well and a German wheat beer Weihenstephaner and Bitburger. Very pleasant in the garden, helpful staff, no problems for away fans. GuideDogSaint - 29 Aug 2010 18:42 |
| Lots of money has been spent here: the old rundown Ashley Arms has been gutted and reopened as the above moniker. Very unusual layout with on one side there leather (or leather looking) seated booths with tall US-style) aluminium bar stools facing the wall and the other side plain tables and chairs. Fairly conservative ale choice - 2 from Bristol Beer Factory, one Bath Ales and one Moles (I think the three ales might be permanent fixtures with the Moles being a rotating guest but the staff didn't seem to be too sure about this). Large decked garden out back and the toilets were spotless. Ale quality was OK and I would say definitely worth a look but might not be everyone's cup of tea and with the fairly dull ale choice (which you can find elsewhere), not sure whether it's worth making a special effort to return.
