There are two particularly good pubs locally.
The Windmill (on Windmill Hill) is a recently renovated Bristol Beer pub, with a really good selection of bitters, lagers and ciders. They also do rather good pies and mash. There's a separate family room and terrace.
The Star And Dove (on St. Luke's Road) is a more gastro-pub experience, with very good food and dining, but still a friendly and relaxed atmosphere
