There may be finer places to watch football … Perhaps. But to not know even once the Lions is not to know Bristol City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trueredsupporter Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Like it being a Bristol City landmark but do prefer a more sedate venue to watch football. The Landlord is a real gent who helped out with a donation to the boys football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about his Scouse roots, I remember the whole Truth family being on family fortunes talking with scouse accents, one of the founder members of the “Cosso” gang was our truthy, all in all good memories at CTK and Bernedettes with him although he has seemed to have forgotten his Irish/Catholic roots !!!!!!

The Truth, haven't heard that for years If you've never tried "The Lions" try it at least once either for an England game or before a City game. Bonkers!

Whites Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Best boozer about bar none. Have watched both England games in there with one of my boys each time, great atmosphere and really busy but can still take the young uns (unlike a lot of pubs) which is great. Top man is the landord and many of the regulars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRed Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Top of "Fire Engine Hill". Any young uns wondering what went on behind the Bottle & Jug door? No, nothing to do with City bottling the play-offs last season. Some 58 years after this photo I had to do my paper round that glorious July day, 1966, when England became world champs. Tom Pearce, newsagent, had his shop just a few yards from this pub across the top of Palmyra. Any older Bemmy lads remember? I did the round in record time, ran all the way. Got home at 3-2 & then dear old Ken said "they think it's all over....." Convinced myself this photo is an omen. England WC winners 2018. You heard it here first.

iamalagerdrinker Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 Visited Bristol for the first time in 8 years a few months ago and wanted to pop in again after match day. So I went in with the Mrs on a Monday after doing all the sightseeing etc etc. Half price pints and Grey Goose! What a night, lovely pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted June 28, 2018 Report Share Posted June 28, 2018 When I go to Bristol i go to that pub. Lovely. Never forget a couple of years ago we played Coventry home 0-0. The result was the fact we were Champions, won leauge on, big party in Three Lions after the game. Loudness and happiness!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
