                Ah, The Hope & Anchor – it's one of those pubs that just warms your cockles on a lazy afternoon in Bristol. I have to say, the Sunday roasts steal the show; they're hearty, delicious affairs with generous servings that won't break the bank, and honestly, they're some of the best I've tried around here. The staff are lovely, always up for a chat and making sure everything runs smoothly, while the beer garden is an absolute gem – a sunny haven with comfy spots that make it ideal for whiling away the hours with friends. It's got that classic pub charm with a great range of beers, including some cracking local ones, and the vibes are just right for a relaxed get-together. On the downside, though, it's a bit of a faff not having a website to quickly look up details, and the opening times can seem a touch muddled, so you might want to plan ahead to avoid any surprises. All in all, it's a solid choice if you're after good food, good drinks, and good company without any pretence – I'd definitely recommend giving it a go!

Cons
- 
                    
                    There's no website listed, which makes it a bit tricky to check out the menu or hours in advance.
                
- 
                    
                    The operating hours seem a tad inconsistent from what's noted, so it might be worth double-checking before heading over.

                            Amazing place for sunday roasts. One of the cheapest and best for sunday lunch
Wow what can I say, we had the most amazing Sunday roast. Huge portions, fantastic value and most importantly, everything was utterly delicious. The new owners have done an incredible job on the pub, it’s so cosy and the beer garden has to be one of the nicest in Bristol. Great food, great pints and great people. Can’t wait to come back!
Unbelievably good vibes from this pub. The vegetarian roast is immaculate, generous and great value. The staff are so nice. The garden is a suntrap with great seating options and a lovely oasis atmosphere. Perfect Sunday hang.
Great atmosphere in a traditional pub!
Love the decor, the staff are super friendly and the roast was delicious. The belly pork just melted in your mouth. A great selection of different vegetables. With cauliflower & broccoli cheese and a large extra jug of gravy coming as standard. High recommend 👌🏻👏🏻
Great selection of beers, had new Bristol brewery duvet vous, the front catches the sun if the weather is good, if you're in your 20s and 30s you probably want to go to the massive multi level beer garden at the back and hang out in the shade, who needs vitamin d at that age😎
