The pub houses a skittle alley at the side, adjacent to a small room with a pool table. Home-cooked food with vegetarian and vegan options. There is a large, free, public car park directly opposite and space for about six cars in front of the pub. The large garden at the rear has a floodlit boules piste.
White Lion
10 High Street, Thornbury BS35 2AQ
With its imposing Lion stood atop the porch entrance, the White Lion has long been a highly visible landmark in the High Street, and both the pub and the lion (or one very like it) have been welcoming and/or intimidating visitors since the early 19th Century. The pub spent a while closed before reopening late in 2018. With its L-shaped bar, this is very much a place where locals gather and chat. There is a pool table on the left, and through to the rear is a lovely secret garden, which is perfect for alfresco drinking when the weather permits.
Malthouse

Refurbished and rebranded in Dec 2016, this Marston's pub - formerly the Knot of Rope - is at the top of the High Street. There are two bars, and three entrances from the street. Four handpumps serve real ales from the Marston's stable of breweries and a fifth pump is used for cider.
