Local Pubs &
Restaurants
PUBS:
Within 10 minutes drive
The Blue Flame, West End, Nailsea,
01275 856910.
Nice drive or cycle ride
across the moors. Proper old-fashioned drinking pub (décor reflects
this!). Phil recommends the Bass and we like the locally produced Thatchers
cider but, be warned – it goes straight to your knees! Nice beer garden on a
sunny day and occasional live music on a Sunday lunchtime. They sometimes do
filled rolls but no other food. A Bristol bakery visits on a Thursday lunchtime
with pasties and pies.
The Drum & Monkey, Kenn,
01275 873433.
Approx 6-7 minutes drive
heading back towards Clevedon. Busy roadside pub with large dining area.
The
Salthouse, Seafront, Clevedon.
Super location overlooking the sea
with large outdoor seating area with patio heaters. Varied menu available
and probably worth a visit for
the view alone.
The Bridge Inn at North End, Yatton,
01934 839139.
Closest pub to the
lakes and cottages. Approx 3-4 minutes drive or a 20 minute walk. Big roadside pub
serving reasonably priced ‘average’ food. Great indoor and outdoor area for
kids. Large car park.
The Old Inn, Paul’s Causeway, Congresbury.
01934 832270
Nice place for a
Sunday lunchtime drink in the winter. Roaring log fire and small but cosy bar
area, it does get busy. Well kept Bass if you’re a real ale
enthusiast. No food. Beer garden.
The Plough, Congresbury.
01934 877402
Nice atmosphere, cosy pub doing good food.
Nice garden area.
Within
20 minutes drive
Black
Horse, Clapton in Gordano,
01275 842105.
Pretty
drive through narrow country lanes to reach this very popular old pub which features in the
Good Pub Guide. Beer garden.
White Hart, Wrington Road,
Wrington,
01934 833303.
Best
to book if you want food here as they get very busy (01934 833303). Extensive
menu, good quality food, reasonably priced.
New Inn, West Town Road,
Backwell,
01275 462694.
Well-known locally as the best place for fish. Under new
management so we don't have an up to date report - yet!
