Guest Cadburyheath Red Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I read a feature about cider pubs in the Evening post seven magazine on saturday about a pub in Bedminster called the Apple Tree, being from Cadburyheath I only really drink over that side of town on match days & was just wondering if anyone can tell me where it is, what cider they do & do many city fans drink in there, as I was thinking of popping in there before the Tranmere game.

robins72 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 The apple tree if I'm right in thinking is round the back of NatWest on East street. It is a rather RARE pub. I remember going to work on several occassions where there were people coming out of the pub from the night before. The customers are very local and the cider looked a rather strange orange colour! Spit n sawdust they call it classy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cideriup Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 If you're heading up Bedminster Parade, away from Redcliff & with Asda on your right, turn left at Motaman & 100yards up on your left.Proper 'Old School' cider pub.The place is about about the size of your average front room.Once went there and there was a band playing - only thing was there was no room left for the customers, so we all stood about drinking on the pavement outside.Another time, was in there on a darts night, - now the dartboard's above one of the tables. The old locals didn't care though, you'd just have to throw your darts over their heads. They didn't blink an eyelid, even with the occasional stray dart landing right on their table in between their 'Somerset Wine' ! Proper ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
