Almondsbury Creative in South Gloucestershire

Went for a pizza and a couple of pints on Thursday evening as I had heard a lot of good stuff about this establishment. Some friendly customers made me feel welcome, and the cheerful and efficient staff makes it easy to see why the recent award for best family pub and runner-up for best community pub came about.

Went here recently for a firework show event - harry potter themed. The event itself was fabulous, loads of food and drink options. Games, rides etc. all fairly expensive which was expected. The fireworks were amazing, matched awesomely with the music played along with it. The DJ was awesome. We all had a fabulous time. We didn't really spend much time in the actual onsite facilities because the event was mainly outside but they looked decent. Would recommend keeping an eye on any events planned here.

Outstanding and wonderful service

Attended the 2024 fire display last night . The theme was Harry Potter . The dispay was out of this world

Saw Willow Hill in concert. Good concert.Plenty of parking. Welcoming atmosphere. Drinks and food reasonably priced. I would return.

Went to watch football it's a nice little set-up with the floodlights for night games, but found the social club quite dear prices for a beer etc, and they weren't very well stocked for a Friday night had to change drinks 3 times because none left in stock. Although Staff were friendly and polite .

Tried this restaurant and can honestly say amazing experience there was 9 of us all food came out hot and was delicious service was really friendly attentive children loved it we even won the free bingo would highly recommend if you have kids that don't like to sit still will defo return 😀

Extremely poor customer service. Bar lady extremely rude in front of the children! Would not recommend in general, but certainly not as family friendly, we were shocked!

Needs a bit of a face lift. Toilets are shocking falling to bits.

I am reviewing Almondsbury Creative events, not the restaurant. We received flyers for the 3-day festival on Thursday advertising tickets from £25 for one day or from £90 for three days. ONE DAY LATER, trying to purchase tickets; there were no 3-day tickets and tickets for days 2 or 3 were almost £50 and £80 respectively. The flyer on the site was an exact copy of my physical flyer but with higher prices! Each raised by £10. The contact number listed is a dud, not taking calls/ disconnects after a very brief message of not being available and there is no email provided. It appears to be a case of clear mis-advertising.

Played cricket in the adjoining cricket ground, good atmosphere.

We are frequent visitors to almondsbury creative and have always had good experiences but today was extra special, my niece who is 8 years and disabled wasn't charged for entrance fee as she can't use any of the bouncy inflatables, she was led on the grass and the bubble man came over with all the other children and gave her very own display of bubbles with the other children running around her, she gave lots of chuckles and laughter it was lovely.

Great place for families and always a nice atmosphere. Staff are really great and there’s always events and parties going on most weekends. I would highly recommend trying this place

Visited recently for a family day out. Unfortunate and unpleasant experience, very disappointing. Sadly won't be returning and can't recommend, especially as family friendly! 🙄😒

My dining experience at Almonsbury creative for the pizza event was truly exceptional. From the moment we entered, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made us feel right at home. It really was good value for money. Super quick service and good food. If your looking for an event for friends this is the place. :)

Great for kids, full of activities and meet and greet characters. This week slip n slide and a magic show. Recommended

Once a month there is a fantastic kizomba and salsa event, lesson plusses social after. Excellent party and the bar staff are lovely.

Came in for breakfast this morning absolutely amazing service and staff were amazing, the chungus bap came out with 10 minutes of ordering even during a very busy service, would definitely recommend and are definitely coming again worth the 5 stars

Not a social club anymore. Just a pub like any other pub. Lost its atmosphere now.

The Friday kids club is always amazing here!! Loads for the little ones

One of the best grounds in Bristol. They have a very good cricket team and football team with some amazing players. The pub is also very happening.

It’s amazing place in 5 years I never knew such place is very close to me

Attended a group celebration here. Had a great time. Everyone was very welcoming

We went there for a skittles match, we didn't have any food so I can not comment on that.

Staff are friendly and professional. The food exceeded my expectations.

We decided to host our own Christmas party with friends and children. We hired the Moxon room and decided on take up the offer of a Buffett they provided. I’m so pleased we did because we were able to spend all our time together celebrating Christmas and the Buffett was brought into the room at our chosen time. The food was delicious! The staff were amazing and a special thank you to Beccy who was extremely helpful and kind throughout the booking process. We can’t wait to do the same again next year! If you’re looking to hire space and be catered for then Almondsbury creative is your place. Very reasonable priced and perfect for every occasion!

Couldn't have been better and there was a huge crowd of us - thank you!

Went for a salsa dancing.perfect size room. Parking was tricky as very busy.

We go every year for the fireworks. Great love it

We love hosting our kids parties and family events at almondsbury creative. A great venue for our kids disco parties and nerf parties

Great refill coffee on a cold winters day, perfect for football

Food is great here. Good for watching sports too.

Lots of fun would definitely recommend

Excellent pub with food and cocktails. Plenty for kids and Adults to do. There is a small playground and a huge field to play. Good size halls for events with a view

Was nice to stop. Over for brunch & ordered from the SA menu. Compliments to the chef also the rest of bobotie & burgers great

Great local amenity, large bar, good food, and often host special events with music

Was here for cider and pie festival, had a great atmosphere, just a shame they ran out of "Artisan " cider. Still a great event

Cider & Pie Festival.What a night, FANTASTIC. Second year running a great day out. Bands were great.

Nice venue and good music but it was a Cider and Pie Festival - and they ran out of..... Cider and Pies!

Avoid any of these events! Attended the “cider & pie festival” what a shocking set up. Ran out of cider! 🤣 literally ran out!! One pie stall charging the earth, yes one stall. Queues for over 40 mins, the poor staff did the best they could. Never been charged entrance for something so poorly organised. I think my child could have done better!!

Disgraceful organised cider and beer festival ran out of cider and pies very early on, enormous queues at drink stations and bar with minimal staff serving, payed £55 for a pair of tickets with other people showing ticket barcodes that had already been used so getting in for free, absolute shambles.

We purchased 16 tickets for the Cider & Pie Festival but sadly would never return. This event was very poor due to running out of Cider & Pie very early, the queue for purchasing the drinks vouchers was long and then once you had the vouchers the queue for drink was even longer, nearly 45 min wait to get a warm cider, on 2nd attempt to spend vouchers they had sold out. Also no pies which I would add was £12 and the other food was very over priced as well. We were advised we could not bring any food but people around us had brought in food. I did try and speak to the organiser on the day with no luck and as security advised me on leaving lots of people complaining and leaving early. One member of staff told me they had more people than expected , I did point out it was a ticket event and surely they knew how many tickets they sold !! We left and went to local pub for food and drink , it was packed with everyone wearing green wristbands so this speaks volume. They had all left the festival and gone where they could get a drink and food. I have messaged the venue since but not got anywhere, they seem to think everyone was happy and having fun. Our friends along with many others joined the queue to get a refund on drinks vouchers they had purchased as impossible to purchase drinks as either warm larger or sold out !!. I can assure you we have spoken with so many people on the day and since who felt it was a very overpriced badly organised event. How can you run out of Cider & Pie so early !! Maybe it would be better to call it a music festival and let people bring their own drink and picnic. Don’t waste your money.

Bought tickets for the cider and pie festival, it’s my own fault for paying 80 quid for a family and not realising that no pie or cider was included in the price. 5.50 for a pint of warm cider and by 5.30pm most had run out. My partner queued for an hour, yes an hour to get a pint of lager and totally missed the wurzels. Our friends came last year and highly recommended it but this year they said it was completely different and very expensive. 30 mins queue for warm cider and and hour for a pint of lager makes this a bit of a joke. 7.50 for a hot dog and a fiver for cheesy chips…..a very expensive waste of time to be honest.

We booked the hall for a surprise party. We were told the hall holds 200 people.. That is clearly a lie. We had about 90 attend the party and it was so cramped, not enough tables, when we were told they had plenty. The staff were so rude! I would never book this place again.

Myself and a colleague broke down last Weds evening in the gridlocked motorway traffic and ended up at the Cricket Club whilst waiting for the recovery lorry. My diabetes was playing up a bit, and the barmaid, Abbi was so helpful, and even served us food when the kitchen was due to close, thus saving me from getting worse. Fair play to her and her colleagues. ( Added bonus of watching some cricket as well). Thanks Abbi and colleague Lauren.

Nice relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a meal and sport and little ones can jump on jumping castles

We heard a rumour that Almondsbury Creative was one of just a few places selling Thatcher's Blood Orange Cider, so we went along to find out. Had a lovely Sunday afternoon sat in the sun there. Also had some food, which was pretty good, especially for the price. Although it was great, I have to admit, I miss the ease of being able to order from the table with the app... but I guess I'm just being lazy.

Sat in this place right now and couldn’t be more disgusted ! The tables are so sticky my wine glass stuck to it ! Chairs are filthy too . Wouldn’t even dare use the ladies as I can only imagine what they might be like . Our lunch was luke warm , veg went between raw to boiled to death ! We ordered cauliflower cheese as an extra which was equally as awful , watery and tasteless . Will never come back here and certainly cannot recommend this place . Can’t wait to get out to be honest . Only one upside the two members of staff were very lovely , polite and attentive ,

A very nice venue for get togethers and parties. Nice food, friendly staff and enough parking for all your friends

Excellent facilities and friendly staff. Highly recommended for kids party. Amjed

Honestly... the children's entertainment was amazing. The food let the place down. I had the roast beef Sunday lunch .After almost a two hour wait it arrived cold, the vegetables were a complete let down, on the plate was red cabbage, white cabbage and frozen roast potatoes. The beef was so tough I even tried using a steak knife . In the end I gave up and left the meal . I mentioned to the member of staff( who collected my plate) that I couldn't eat it as it arrived cold , he said " oh dear sorry " . So for children entertainment perfect.

Very friendly staff and a good atmosphere.the food is excellent.

Me and a friend went for the burger and beer deal for £6 on Tuesday. Upon our arrival at 18:40 we were informed that the chef had popped out for ten minutes. Not a major issue we ordered the burger and beer deal paid our £12 and sat down with our beers. 10, 20, 30minutes passed with no sign of the chef after around 35 minutes I went to the bar and asked if the chef had returned, to which I was informed he had indeed not. I explained to the member of staff behind the bar that we couldn't wait any longer with no guarantee when he would return and asked for a refund. Now although perfectly acceptable I was a little surprised that he proceeded to refund the difference between the burger and beer deal and the drinks, after all I really don't feel a chef should be disappearing for over half an hour during food service. Overall it's a real shame as the place is nice and the drinks are reasonable.

This was Almondsbury social club now been totally revamped and is a great place to eat and drink food is well prepared and a good choice of beers and wines at great prices

Staff and meals amazing. Excellent value also

We came with the family for the kids club on Friday. Ozzy the magician was absolutely brilliant. We also came with the family to the Mamma Mia event on mother's day. It was fab and we had an amazing time. Excellent staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Thanks

Чудесно място за почивка и игра на децата.

Lovely place, can't wait to visit in August!!

Went for Sunday lunch at 1pm and didn’t get food served until 2pm. Lots of staff but no one seeming to know or care what they were doing. Food is OK but staff are not customer focused and need some training.

We had an absolute amazing time at the Anna and Elsa Christmas brunch. Will definitely be back for other events.

Great place friendly staff, bar, Sunday roast, club prices, football shown, unlimited free refills on tea and coffee.

Great place. Went for my works Christmas do. Very lively place with a real mix of people. Darts, karaoke,skittles and great food and drink. Seemed they had a kids part going when we arrived so they cater to everyone. Had a really great night , would definitely recommend for large parties.

Nice bar and restaurant, friendly staff and really good atmosphere.

If you haven't been to one of their events ....Go. Well organised, great staff, gets better every year and great value for money..

Friendly place and a handy spot after having played football on the astro virtually opposite. I really enjoyed the Sunday Roast which was nicely cooked and well priced. Reckon I will go again!

Best pub in the area if you have children

Nice local which was warm with friendly staff and within walking distance so very convenient. Had not been there for some time but will definitely be returning.

Very nice pub staff are all extremely friendly and helpful

I keep using the words cosy and amazing for my reviews but this is indeed a great place to go for a meal,or to take your family there.We went down to watch a football game and it's got TVs everyone and a huge projector.Food is American ish ,tasty and plenty.Will definitely visit again.

Dance classes are great and my lil one absolutely loves it

Great atmosphere great staff, good food.

Brilliant place to go for a meetup, especially to catch a rugby game and a braai, I'll be back plenty more times

Love this place highly recommended

Great experience, great vibe...

Great space for events, had 2 tents outside for us which was great

It was nice to get out with friends together a live band

I remember coming here years ago. Slight changes, with a few extra rooms 👍

We had a really lovely afternoon watching the rugby on the big screen. Pet friendly too. Lovely vibe and friendly staff

I scored my 1st goal for my new club @AlmondsburyFc today. Happy! ⚽️

Great buzz ...and friendly atmosphere

Swung by to see if the Lions was on. Friendly greetings by Garth and a couple of lads. Bar lady from Ebbw Vale was super tidy nice. No complaints, nice location, sport on the box. Super easy app to order food. However the "Chips n SH#£" are all you need. Mega. Chips, chilli, cheese, bacon and jalapenos. Enough for two. Well stuffed.

Had a lovely boozy afternoon tea there, staff very friendly and were more than happy to keep topping us up 😁

Had a great time watching the cricket Swift table service Great helpful friendly staff

Great staff and location for an event 👌

I recently (unfairly) gave this venue a one star. That was wrong of me, it was shooting from the hip after a bad food experience. However, the venue itself is ok, and the staff are polite and attentive. The outdoor seating, looks over a cricket pitch / tennis courts and some gazebo style sun shade is provided. A tiny, playground is present but not enough within it to occupy a toddler. Would go back for outdoor drinks.

Ordered a drink, it arrived quickly, drank it and left. Nothing more to add.

A fantastic afternoon tea with cocktails, all you can drink! The sandwiches and cakes were all freshly made and the selection of drinks on offer was fantastic. We had a great time! Would highly recommend.

Excellent value roast really tasty n you get loads! The owner very kindly got our dog some water 💦 thanks very much 😊

I travelled from Wales to come here for a bottomless afternoon tea on the May bank holiday weekend. Outdoor dining only at the time but the tables were under cover of a marquee. Food was great and plentiful. The service was fab, very accommodating to dietary requirements. Very relaxed environment and our glasses felt like they were never empty! It was really good value for money. There was a bbq also happening along side which looked and smelt amazing. A lot of effort had obviously gone into making this event safe and successful. Would go back for future events.

Lovely family place by day. Not good at night to many drunk people and lots of fighting. Seems to be the same crowd who start trouble all the time. Won't be going there again , nor will a few other people I spoke to.

Lovely place quick service great food and friendly bar staff

Due to lockdown we could not go out for a Burns night meal , so Almondsbury Creative decided to do a free delivery service , £20 for a three course meal with a small bottle of whiskey .The meal was fantastic, hot, and tasty haggis with a whiskey cream sauce , very recommend this place

The meat was gross, but the staff were amazing.

Was very disappointed about circus event yesturday as it was very mismatched with a fairy coming out doing bubbles and a hoola hoopa who kepy coming out a man on stilts doing nothing just walking around rheres were long gaps in between even if they had clowns or acrobats in between r stilt msn entertaining prehaps juggling i was embarrassed as i had raved so much.tofriend about how great previous weeks had been so she came along and thought it was boring also the kids got bored.wondering if it gonna be worth coming along again

Really nice friendly atmosphere very good service, staff friendly

A lot of effort clearly going on to make this a good place to go, went with the family and all enjoyed it

Almondsbury has been the perfect place to get together with friends since the easing of lockdown. They have loads of tables that are very spread out on the field, with table service via an app. Loads of independent food vans that are selling lush food at a good price. Brilliant evening always, and clearly enjoyed by all ages.

Have been to Almondsbury Creative Club the last 2 Saturdays. Seating is well spaced out, hand gel available on entry, ordering can be done on Dines app, waiters deliver drinks promptly , everything had been done to make you feel perfectly safe. Four different food vans serving delicious food and last Saturday even a dessert stall - yum yum. All in all a brilliant place to eat lovely food, meet up with friends and feel safe. Keep it up Garth

We ate and drank on well spaced out park benches. My wife had the melted cheese dish and I had the pork from the serving wagons. Food was excellent. Easy to order drinks through their app.
