The best bar bar none?
The Merchants Arms is a small but attractive ale house. By keeping its two atmospheric rooms intact, we ensured that this superb little pub did not succumb to the dull, open-plan feel of many city bars. It also helped us win CAMRA’s award for the best refurbished city pub a few years back.
There is plenty to appeal to the beer drinker in the front bar, while the back room occasionally provides the setting for impromptu sea shanties and folk music. Once you’ve experienced The Merchants Arms, like most people, you’ll go back time and again.
Given its proximity to the harbour, it’s apt that The Merchants is on an island (albeit surrounded by roads not water). There’s a car park at the rear, so escape the current of the Hotwells one-way system and pop in.
