Eighteen97 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 I'm down for the Barnsley game next weekend with a couple of mates, want to take them for a pre match beer, just wondering where best to pitch up. Is the BS3 pub a decent shout? Any reccomendations welcome. Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bcfc-Chris Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Yeah top pubs IMO are; BS3, robins, and three lions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be a bit crowded though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be a bit crowded though. Get your drink, and then go sit out the front, lots of other city fans do the same, lots sit on the wall opposite.

Bristol Rob Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 All good advice, except for one thing. The pubs suggested are all 'home fans only' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InCider Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 If he ain't got his ticket with him how will he get into the match after the pre match beer? I'm assuming that if he's asking where to drink pre-match that he and his friends are not ST holders and may well have booked tickets on the phone to pick up at the ticket office. Or, assuming the match is POTD, they may well not have tickets prior to the game. Maybe, another mate is meeting him at the ground, who will have all their tickets! FFS, I was just trying to be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't take your match ticket off you to go in BS3, merely ask to look at in order to confirm that you aren't sitting with the away supporters. If you are in city colors it normally isn't an issue anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolian76 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Why people are recommending The Robins is beyond me, one of the worst pints in the area. If you want a good beer I'd suggest The Coopers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the BS3 pub a decent shout? Any reccomendations welcome. Ta. Well. we love the "Merchants Arms" in Hotwells pre-match. On the one way traffic system just near the Cumberland Basin flyover. Small, friendly boozer (selling the excellent Bath Ales) but does get a bit crowded about 2pm on match days. Away fans welcome (except Cardiff) but it looks like you are a BCFC fan living well away from Bristol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start your pub crawl at the Mardyke for great pint of cheap scrumpy - then head across the bridge to get to the Orchard.... followed by the Packet... then finish off with a can or two from the local shop and sit outside the BS3! Then stumble in and sober up watch the match for a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eighteen97 Posted August 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Pretty late acknowledgement but cheers for info guys. Got delayed on the way down so pitched inside BS3 (well, outside, it was monster hot inside). Pretty chilled with everyone enjoying a natch or 2, I'll have to myabe show my face next time.
