    There is and has been a Bristol City thread for a while, with a City fan providing local info.

    👍 I missed that thread 
  • First time in Bristol myself.
  • Hope you are not driving, the traffic is horrendous!
  • How far is Parson Rd station to the ground? 
    And is the service reliable?

    Parson Street station is nearly a mile from the ground & about a 7 minute train ride from/ to Temple Meads Station.
    Trains depart Temple Meads at 26 & 54 minutes past the hour.
    Trains depart Parson Street at 13 & 37 minutes past the hour.

    There’s a barge on the river on the centre of town that sells absolutely lethal proper West Country cider! I think this is it:

    The Apple is really good .  There’s also a few good pubs in King Street, which is opposite.  Most don’t open until 12, however .

    Must admit I’m unsure whether to risk this or not after. It’s still a 20+ min walk from the away end so realistically the 5.37 is the only option. I can’t imagine a local service being a big train so will we all alongside the home fans be able to actually get on? If you can’t, the next one is an hour later. So that’s not an option. Might be more guaranteed to just jump on the buses after. Decisions, decisions…
  • The spotted cow in north street seems a decent choice. The three lions on the same road looks def a home pub so will avoid that.

    Spotted Cow is on North Street where there are a few options as you get nearer the ground they go home only,

    Not a great deal at all if coming from Parson Street, the Three Lions on West Street is home only.

    If you head over the other side of the River the Grain Barge is good. Plenty of pubs in and around harbourside in the city and not too much of a walk down to Ashton Gate.
  • What about around BTM?
  • If I am right is there a Wetherspoons on the habourside. If I recall it's quite big. 
  • My plan is to get to BTM about 10, find a cafe for breakfast and head off to parson Street. Sounds like there isn't a lot of choice for away fans at parson Street is that correct.

    There’s a huge Wetherspoon 2/3 mins from BTM station, come out the station but don’t walk down where all the taxis go, turn sharp right and there’s an arch - go through and cross the road it’s right by the footbridge over the river 

    big outside area with the weather as well

    The Knights Templar - just remembered the name

    Yes V-Shed, there’s a slug and lettuce in close proximity on harbourside too.

  • If people are searching for Wetherspoons 

    Knights Templar is outside Bristol temple meads
    VShed spoons on harbourside
    there is another spoons on the way down to Ashton Gate in Bedminster, just before you get to North Street that Ashton gate is on Robert Fitzharding

    Decent real Ale: Three Tuns (various) behind city hall or Grain Barge (Bristol beer factory) on City side of river on way to Ashton, Tobacco factory and Bristol beer factory micro bar will prob both be home only

    Bristol has plenty of micro breweries, or good real ale pubs  little Martha near temple meads is good, left handed giant brewpub in city centre is good,(it’s spacious and near castle park), or Kings Head on Victoria street (good chemistry brewing)

    Apple is the cider barge on Welsh beck, here city centre near queens square you’ll find plenty of big pubs llandoger trow, king street brew house , famous navy volunteer, all places with lots of beers on.
