Clean. Reliable. Does the job.

The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.

Good food and vibes, just watch the beef.

The Shakespeare is a lively pub where you’ll find more than just a decent pint. Archie calls it a Bristol must-visit, thanks to the hearty food that packs a punch. Charlotte's Jamaican curry is the stuff of dreams, and Devneel appreciates the vibe – it’s like a pub that actually has a soul. Plus, with live music and events, you’re bound to have a good time.

Sure, you might hit a few snags – some reviews mention overcooked beef or chewy pies – but honestly, the atmosphere and the service more than make up for it. So, gather your mates and get ready for a night of good food and tunes. Just don’t order the beef if you don’t want to play a game of chew or swallow. 🍻
