Cider & Perry Pub of the Year
The Orchard Inn
CAMRA's Cider Pub of the Year
The Orchard Inn, Bristol, BS1 6XT
After a year of local and regional judging rounds,
The Orchard Inn, Bristol, took the National award after impressing the judges with its unrivalled commitment to serving quality real cider and perry. Judges also noted the pub's attitude to promoting real cider and perry to the consumer, and the friendliness and knowledgeable nature of the staff.
Situated in the heart of maritime Bristol, the one-bar street corner local has become a popular destination for the discerning cider and perry drinker. Stuart Marshall, Orchard Inn licensee, only took over the pub in November 2008, and with the idea of pushing more traditional products to his customers, went about organising cider events to complement the wide array of choice at the bar. As demand took off for real cider and perry, 'Cyder Sundays', Marshall's one-off cider sessions, soon became a daily fixture.
