The Cross Hands, Fishponds

Not very impressed with this pub!

It seems that the beer drinker is a second rate citizen in the Cross Hands, because they appear to prefer people ordering food and do not pay much attention to thirsty beer drinkers stood waiting at the bar, taking every opportunity to disappear around the back of the bar to who knows where?

I left here after waiting for over 10 mins, without any acknowledgement, and went to the Railway Tavern where all customers are valued!

I will not be back....

The Railway Tavern, Fishponds

Back at the Railway Tavern and this is Still The Only Real 'Local' Pub in Fishponds!

Real Beer, Skittles, Darts, Dogs allowed if very well behaved, Cyclists are welcome and the Railway Tavern is just down the road from the Bristol and Bath Cycle-path!

And if you are a keen angler, you can chat for hours with the many resident anglers who drink here.....13lb 6oz or was it 15lb 10oz?

Football is also shown on three screens around the pub and there is a quiz on Sunday evening.

Overall-go old locals pub for more than just 'locals'.

'Insert Coin'
Local rumors are intimating that the Greyhound is going to re-open in February and it is has also been rumoured that works have been going on for several weeks inside behind the Sitex.
Hmmm. I have not seen any skips etc......
