A colleague had to drop out of a meeting so I will train there on Tuesday. Meeting finishes at 13:00 and i have an open return. The one potential stumbling block is that my manager has a train back at 16:00 and that could go either way… he may suggest beers or alternatively want to spend 3 hours discussing strategy. I have put together a list on Google Maps… any must visits I have omitted? Intentionally wasn’t straying too far from Temple Meads.
That’s more or less my route. I go to the furthest point (Small Bar) first and work backwards towards Temple Meads. It’s just as quick to walk to King Street as catch the bus I have found.
I always look in the Cornubia and the Seven Stars. Both Cask based pubs and not to everyone’s taste but I do like to visit them. The Bridge Inn is a smart little pub but I struggle to pick up any winners in there. If you haven’t been in the King Street Brewhouse before then it will be worth your while, but I have cut that one out now as the beers are very samey.
Wiper & True’s taproom looks like it would be a nice addition to your list but I suppose it’s getting you further away from Temple Meads. If you end up with plenty of time to spare it could be a consideration.
