The Plough Inn

You'll find locals propping up the bar at any hour here, nursing pints and putting the world to rights over proper pub food that doesn't try too hard. The kind of place where regulars know each other's names and the barstaff remember your usual – it's refreshingly straightforward in a city full of craft beer temples and gastro-gastropubs. The food hits the spot without any unnecessary flourishes, and the atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between welcoming newcomers and maintaining its authentic neighbourhood soul. It's the sort of pub that makes Easton feel like a proper community rather than just another Bristol postcode.
