The Cider Press

You're down by the Barbican, salt air hitting you as you push through the door into this unassuming spot that's been pulling in regulars for years. The Cider Press does exactly what it says on the tin—stocks an impressive range of West Country ciders alongside the usual suspects, and the sort of honest pub food that doesn't try to be anything it isn't. It's the kind of place where you can nurse a pint for hours or crack into something proper after work, surrounded by the sort of crowd who know their way around both a cider and the city's back streets.
