Bar staff and owner are really kind and friendly. First time here in Bristol and was recommended here for Sunday roasts. Really glad we listened. Food was absolutely tasty. Will definitely be coming back next time we come here.
I absolutely adore The Lansdown – without a doubt one of Bristol’s finest pubs. There’s always a cosy, welcoming feel that makes you relax the moment you step inside. The landlord is outstanding: genuinely kind, attentive, and clearly pours a lot of care into running the place. It’s incredibly dog-friendly too, which is a huge plus. If you’re into rugby, this is the spot to catch a game. Quality pints, a brilliant crowd, and a cracking atmosphere from start to finish. Couldn’t recommend it more.
And as for that previous review – I’m not Gen Z either, and I completely disagree! The team here are fantastic – warm, thoughtful, and always create a lovely vibe. It’s my go-to local whether I’m on my own, with my dog, or meeting friends or family. They show great sport (love how they spotlight women’s games too), and the food and drink are excellent – those wings, the Sunday roast, the wine list… all delicious and sensibly priced. I’ve never once felt out of place coming in for a quiet solo glass of wine and a read. Massive appreciation to the whole Lansdown crew – you’ve created something really special.
Absolutely love The Lansdown! One of the best pubs in Bristol by far. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming – it’s the kind of place where you walk in and feel instantly at home. The landlord is absolutely top-tier: friendly, attentive, and clearly puts so much heart into the place. It’s also super dog-friendly, which is a huge bonus. If you’re into rugby, this is the place to be on match days. Proper pints, great people, and just a brilliant vibe all round. Can’t recommend it enough! Picture is me with my Brother and Sister on a match day
Well I'm not Gen Z and I disagree with the last review. Wonderful people who provide a great service and atmos. Feels like home, my proper friendly local who welcome me in, solo, or just me and the dog, or with family or with friends. Great sport on, proud to prioritise women's sport ❤️ love their snacks, their wings, their roast and their wine list - all very reasonable and not pretentious. Never made me feel unwelcome to come in, have a wine and just read a book on my own, if that's all I needed that evening. So thanks Lansdown team!
A very very decent roast. Big portions, lovely roasties and carrots. Range of cider on tap was great, and both inside and outside had a great vibe! My only gripe was the vegan wellington was slightly dry and a strange texture - still tasted nice, but I would have preferred it to be mushroom or other veg rather than pure vegan mince.
