Coronation
18 Dean Lane, Bristol. BS3 1DD(0117) 940 9044http://www.hopback.co.uk/our-pubs/the-coronation.htmlthe.coronation.pub@gmail.com
Popular traditional local in a residential area a short walk from Bedminster and the city centre via Gaol Ferry bridge. Up to five good value ales are on offer, with a wide range of beer in cans and bottles. TVs show terrestrial broadcast sporting events, and there is a jukebox. Straightforward pub food, with extensive vegan options, is available most evenings, while Sunday roast is now a popular institution. Monday is quiz night. Furnishings are simple and cosy, and licensee Ben is the artist of the eclectic artwork which decorates the walls both inside and out. A small raised seating area behind and to the left of the bar takes you away somewhat from the hubbub and there is additional on-street seating outside the front door. Dogs on leads are welcome and treated with disdain by the pub cat.
