The Draper's Arms is a special little micropub tucked away on Gloucester Road & recently named one of the best pubs in Bristol!
Hear about it in the words of the owners themselves:
"We opened a micropub at No: 447 on the Gloucester Road in Bristol at the end of 2015. If you’re passing, it’s just by the bus stop opposite Pitt Road. If you're not passing, take our word for it. We sell real ale, straight from the cask, sourced from independent producers, mostly small brewers based in Bristol, Gloucesters"hire, Somerset and Wiltshire.
The Drapers Arms is an independent alehouse - and I hope we’re providing a relaxed and sociable atmosphere, in a one room venue with a capacity for about 40 customers, to enjoy a couple of beers and a bit of chat.
Now - and I know this will disappoint some people - we don't sell lager, Guinness, beers with the word “smooth” in their name or any 'keg' stuff; ciders, spirits or things like jagger bombs. However, without a juke box, fruit machines, WiFi or television, I hope it will feel like you're just sitting in a good, old fashioned, traditional pub and, with conversation with other punters as the only form of entertainment, you’ll also actually enjoy it.
We do sell a few regular bar snacks but no hot food. However, you can occasionally pick up a pickled egg in a bag of crisps – known as Bristol’s answer to Chicken & Chips."
