The Annexe Inn in South Gloucestershire

Live football being televised in a great beer garden. Staff were extremely personable, a great selection of beer and the pizza was great. Approx 15 minutes on foot to Bristol Rovers' Memorial Stadium with nearby street parking available. Would return!

This really is a treasure. The food choice is good, it's excellent quality and very reasonably priced. The staff are superb too.

Recent visit was disappointing. Poorly trained barmaid calling everyone luvvy. Pulled two pints three quarters full, left them on the counter no intention of topping them up to a full pint. Had to wait five minutes to catch her eye before rectification, then tried to charge me again. Please don't scam people with lazy short measures - its tiresome to have to ask everytime. Pizzas were ok on the night.

We're so lucky to have The Annexe within walking distance from us so we can get our pizza fix! Their build-your-own-pizzas are fantastic value for money - we have both ate in and collected. Being able to customise every option - the base, sauce, toppings and finishing touches, is great. The pizzas are always really fresh and not at all greasy. I would highly highly recommend The Annexe.

We returned to the Annexe a couple of weeks ago to be greeted in the most friendly manner by May who'd remembered us from 6 months ago. We are excellent food, very good value, ample choice of drinks and very Covid safe. What a pleasure.

Sunday night, the Annexe was closed so ended up in the Sportsbar for our pizza instead. As always the pizza was brilliant - build your own from choice of base, sauce and multiple toppings. Fresh, quick, delicious. Thank you

Table for 4 adults.... 2 x veggie Wellington (delicious), 1 x pork belly, 1 x chicken and 2 x cauliflower cheese. All full of flavour, piping hot and good service. The roast is a total bargain at £9.95 too! One portion of cauliflower cheese between is plenty. Highly recommended

The Annexe is a lovely little pub that serves about 8 real ales and 3 or 4 ciders. The Sunday Roasts are a real gem and at great prices. Would recommend to anyone. Always very busy about 2pm on a Sunday so make sure you book a table.

Sunday roast absolutely spot on! Plentiful & great quality for £10 brilliant! Definitely will be returning

So me and my partner seen great reviews for the annexe on Facebook and had to try it.. he had the beef and I had the pork belly and both the meats were great. I felt the rest of the roast was ok/nice but could do with a little more flavour/seasoning. The roast potatoes tasted like they were left out from the night before but that was the only real disappointment I had. The atmosphere in the pub and beer garden is lovely and I will return as I think I may have just visited on an off day but all in all for under £10 it was definitely value for money and the puds are very yum!

Decent ale pub, ok/mediocre beer selection, but all served in cheapo plastic cups today! Didn't stick around long because of that.

A great local. The quiz on Monday evening is always a laugh. Good ales on rotation and the pizza is extremely good value and served fast. If you fancy a game of pool, you can pop across the courtyard to the sportsman!

Regularly order takeaway pizzas here. Quality goes down a bit on weekends. Usually better during the week. when they get it right they are great. Have heard the Sunday roasts are great. Will give it a try.

I have been to the Annexe many times. The service is always friendly and your presence is always acknowledged. On one Sunday evening four of us went in after playing badminton. We went again a week later and the barman remembered our order from the previous week. The food is excellent and great value. There are always 'specials' in addition to the regular menu which has plenty of choice. Roast dinners are superb value on Sundays. Their pizzas are the best I've ever eaten (and you can phone to arrange collection of pizzas if you want a take-away. The Annexe is just off the beaten track of Gloucester Road. If it was on the main street it would always be full!

First visit to this so called traditional pub and I must say it was a disappointment. It's dimly lit and rather faded and despite a good range of beers the one I chose ' London Pride' was rather past it's sell by date and I could not finish it which is rare for me. Overall as much as I love traditional pubs this was a bit too basic for me: perhaps it was just being served a second-rate pint that makes me feel like this and I'll probably give it another go despite the disappointment of my first visit.

Al no haber comido aquí durante varias semanas escuché que el menú anterior había sido restablecido, así que comí el almuerzo del domingo (cordero) allí hace 2 días y un almuerzo de cerdo asado antes del partido de los Rovers ayer. Muy contentos de informar que volvieron a su mejor nivel.

Hemos visitado este establecimiento durante años. Uno de los aspectos más impresionante ha sido siempre su variado menú y un gran lugar para comer antes de ir al fútbol un sábado por la tarde. Por desgracia, ya que han empleado un nuevo jefe de la variedad y calidad de la comida ha caído de un acantilado, especialmente cuando hay un partido y tienen un menú especial Día de partido. Ninguna variedad más opciones para vegetarianos, pobre, todo con patatas fritas, ensaladas o sándwiches no ni siquiera una opción para una papa al horno.

Un pub sin pretensión. La decoración no es flash (sin rayas de pino aquí gracias a Dios), pero la cerveza es genial. La comida no es lujoso, pero es decente calidad y excelente relación calidad-precio. El deporte en la televisión. No pido mucho más que eso. Algunos comentarios sobre el personal de abajo, pero honestamente puedo decir que en 10 años de beber allí nunca he encontrado nada más que amable y generoso. Mi favorito pub en 20 años de beber en Bristol.

As always the food was of great quality, the ales are of a superb standard. If you are in the area I would thoroughly recommend a visit.

In Bristol to watch football & found this via Camra. Really really good. Friendly pub, good choice of beers and lovely freshly cooked food. Pizza was excellent, veggie Chilli also. Recommend a visit pre match if you're in town

Best roast pork belly ever with awesome crackling and all the trimmings. The conservatory is family friendly and works for us and also large groups. A good haunt for some honest food and drink.

Se reunió con amigos antes del partido en el Bristol Rovers, a poca distancia a pie del anexo en Seymour Road, estaba parado en una terraza abierta en la lluvia para presenciar una 2-0 derrota así que el anexo realmente lo más destacado del día....

Como se ha mencionado antes, esto parece más bien una cabaña de boy scouts, enclavado en la parte de atrás del pub más grande de deportista. No entréis esperando la elegante decoración. Lo que encontrará es muy aficionado de CAMRA esperábamos impacientes pub con una buena variedad de cervezas bien cuidado. Añadir una buena comida, servicio amable y la gente hablando en toot y te has resumió el lugar. Hay a menudo deportes en la televisión.

great pub size , great for sports and lots of pool tables outside garden and lots of space for kids , food is ok pizza is the best , but some of the staff are rude i have worked in the food industry for years and never have i seen people pay for for and then asked to go and collect their own food from near the kitchen especially as i have eaten in there before and had my food brought to the table like every other customer before me , my partner and me where both disgusted as well as the fact my food was left unattended when i get my next job for the compliance officer ill be sure to visit them again, the tables are always dirty and never clean, and other customers agree with me

Nice place next door to a bigger sports bar. The Annex is ok - it's a pub that sells nice pizza baked I think next door. Wouldn't travel their unless I was socialising.

This has been my local for over 25 years and I have supported it thru thick and thin. However I cannot sit back and let this go. The staff were unhelpful and out right lied, To recap; I went in about 7pm on a sat eve, paid for a large white wine and asked for the sound on the TV to be turned up as Murray was playing at Wimbledon. After about 15 mins the sound was grudgingly turned up for the tennis but they refused to turn the music down because 'other people' wanted to hear the music. There were 4 people in the pub all watching the tennis. As it was so lively I thought I'd go home so asked for a paper/plastic cup to put my wine in. Nothing in the annexe so I went to the sportsman. And then it got bizarre. I was refused a plastic cup as apparently the pub doesn't have an off licence. He said this in all seriousness as he stood in front of an advert for take out beer! I won't go in to the fact that the main people don't speak English. Suit yourself but this is no longer a local for locals - well I suppose it could b for Poles or eastern Europeans.

Fairly basic pub not great on the decor, dark and dated, however best pint of Blackthorn cider in Bristol (In my opinion) Also, excellent pizzas, good quality and value, very friendly staff and SKY sports on all the time. If you are close to the prison end of town on the Gloucester Road or the Cricket ground it's worth a look. It's down the side of the Sportsman pub.

This is a locals pub and the decor, etc, is quite old fashioned.But it's got a friendly vibe, is rarely overly busy and does good pizza at a great price.

Cracking food, the pizzas were tip top. The other food looked lovely, it's great to see some care and pride. Cracking value too.A good range of real ale and friendly staff.It looked family friendly too.We went after our match at Bristol Rovers, they had the evening game on the TV.A bit out the way but worth the hunt. Just don't stray in to the chav nest next door!

As another reviewer notes, this looks like a scout hut, and the decor is dated; but they do two things really well here: it's in the CAMRA guide, so a range of well-kept beers is a given; and the crispy base pizzas are not only excellent but come with discounts for two on some days. There's a courtyard outside and sport fans turn up in droves to watch big matches, so not a place for a romantic tryst; but when you need decent beer and a damn good pizza you're in the right place.

Decent pub food, cracking pizzas, outstanding pork belly (if you can manage to get one before they sell out), decent beers and ciders. Good staff, proper pub with a proper pub atmosphere. Usually busy with friendly locals (!!). Well recommended.

Don't be put off by the look of the Sportsman next door - go round the back and find The Annexe. Numerous real ales, friendly service and great pub grub. I'll be back.

A group of us often eat here before going to watch Bristol rugby. I can only agree with the comments here; the roast pork is always really tasty and great value and is complemented by the wide choice of well-kept beers. My only hesitation in recommending it is that it may lose something if it becomes too popular!

Came here for the 3rd year in a row before the Bristol v Wimbledon match. Have always been impressed by the polite bar staff and reasonably priced, fresh food and was not let down on this visit. A massive ham roll, chargrilled chicken burger both served with chips and a proper salad came in well below a tenner which is great value in my opinion. Others in our party had steak and pork belly with all the trimmings and said it was superb. The clientele were also pleasant and welcoming which is exactly what you want as an away fan. The place was packed at 1pm but the service from the staff was flawless although it was clear they were under pressure. My only minor gripe is the selection of ales is a bit predictable but what they did have was in perfect nick. Will look forward to visiting again next year if we get the chance!

Really good pizza kitchen here. They turn out a lot of pizzas so there is not really much in the way of menu. They're tasty and have a good range of toppings.The beer selection is excellent. The pub is a little bit tired and in need of a spruce up, and the sport on the TV is annoying.Not a great place if you're a) a hipster or b) on a date. But if you want to sink some beers and pizza whilst watching the cricket, look no further.

This is a sister pub to the sportsman and tends to attract an older clientele . I like it because it is handy for the Gloucestershire cricket ground . The beer is very good and usually there are at least 5 real ales as well as a selection of lagers . Staff are very friendly and helpful.A recent pleasant surprise is the quality of the food , there has been always great fresh stone baked pizzas which I'd highly recommend but there is a wider menu. I had a 8oz rump steak with chips mushrooms and onion rings for 6.95 and the steak was excellent . There is also specials such as fresh battered fish for a similar price.The pub itself hasn't had a lot spent on it but there is a pool table and sky sportsWell recommended for a quiet beer with food or a useful place to go with bristol rovers and the cricket close by. It's a lot quieter generally than the sportsman next door

This unassuming, modern looking red-brick building behind the Sportsman pub, near the County Cricket Ground, is a former skittle alley. It's now a cracking community based pub, with a fantastic range of beers (never seen less than 7 real ales on the go) and a brilliant value-for-money food menu. Great pizzas during the week, terrific Sunday lunch offerings. One if the few pubs (along with the Sportsman, naturally) around the Gloucester Road with both SKY and BT Sports. A slightly older crowd than next door - although they share a courtyard together.

Great pub food, very quick and friendly service and excellent value for money. Can't fault it in any way.

I was a regular at the Annexe 15-20 years back but age and the commitments that go with it meant that I hadn't got in there much in recent years. It always was good for real ale (and still is) but today was the first time I had eaten there in a long long time. I was amazed by how good the food was - I had a jerk chicken wrap which came with chips and an excellent salad, my wife had a salad with grilled halloumi, each under £5 and as good as anything we have had for twice the price or more elsewhere.

OK so it looks like a scout hut and the decor is terribly dated BUT . . . the staff are brill, the food is fantastic . . . and cheap . . . and the beer fantastically kept. The courtyard is fab in the sunshine, the garden at the back ideal for the kids and great fun to watch any sport in . . . great crowd of people. Not perhaps somewhere to take a date but there's plenty of places for that sorta thing. Overall a great local in a time where locals hardly exist any more. Love it.

This tiny bar and restaurant is tucked away behind a large pub in Nevil Road, close to Gloucester Cricket Club. It is totally unassuming and very much a family friendly venue which boasts a simple but excellent and extremely varied menu at what can only be described as wonderfully low prices. Don't be put off by these low prices the food is excellent! The bar also stocks a wide array of real ales and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall an excellent little economy restaurant (They also do take-away - the pizzas are great!)

Annexe is great for relaxed family eating in the conservatory and garden. Simple cheap but tasty -kids meals £3 , super pizzas £6 and lots of other options and daily specials. The beer is amazing and has some of the best real ale in the area.
