History in a pint, but don’t rush.

The Hatchet Inn is Bristol's oldest pub, and it’s got that cozy, history-soaked vibe that makes you feel like you’re sipping a pint with Blackbeard himself. The Sunday roast is a standout, with reviewers raving about how it’s one of the best they’ve ever had. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making it a great place to pop in for a drink or a bite to eat. Just be ready for it to get packed, especially on weekends, so get there early if you want a spot to enjoy your drink!

The atmosphere is lively, attracting a mix of students and locals of all ages. The beer selection is solid, with plenty of options on tap. It’s the kind of place where you can easily lose track of time, chatting and enjoying the historic surroundings. Just don’t expect anything super fancy—this is a pub that knows its roots and does them well.
