The Flyer in Bristol, City of

Best pub in Bristol, great staff

Great food and cocktails - I loved the Camembert, and the very chill atmosphere with outdoor heating.

The food at the flyer was outstanding. Thought the refurbishment looks great. Please visit!

The interior of the pub is beautiful and they have a good selection of food and drink. Food that I’ve had of the menu has come out of the kitchen looking beautiful and has tasted delicious.

A wonderful and welcoming pub, food is amazing and a lovely environment whether eating or drinking!

Went to the Flyer on Wednesday evening with a group of family and friends to celebrate my graduation. We had a lovely time in one of their big cozy tables in the middle of the pub, really nice atmosphere there and they’ve done a great job with the renovation. Staff were really friendly, the food came quick and it was just what we were after, and also there’s a quality selection of beers too. Great for big groups, and I will definitely be returning!

Rarely enter a pub with such a nice atmosphere, shame the terrible service lets the whole pub down. Strange to put two of the rudest bartenders together on the same shift - gives the whole pub a slightly dim feel. Imagine walking into a pub and not wanting to order at the bar!! January 23rd

Very cool pub with a chilled atmosphere :))

One of my favourite pubs in Bristol - great beer, great food and the staff are fantastic - can’t help popping in for a swift Guinness whenever I pass by ! All looks fantastic after the makeover as well !

Server was lovely. Food and drinks were delicious. The Parmesan fries were out of this world.

As locals we returned to the Flyer for the 2nd time in under a week! This tells you everything you need to know! Since the change of ownership this is now one a tip top place to eat or drink & the staff make that. Cam & Elise looked after us again & nothing is too much trouble for these efficient, kind & friendly souls. The first visit the pub was manically busy & masses eating yet everything went smoothly, marvellously handled. The food is beyond excellent, freshly & deliciously cooked. Service with a smile & over & above. Thank you guys & see you soon. Absolute stars

Lovely staff, delicious cocktails! Just had a Sunday roast though and was one of the worst I've ever had - and it wasn't cheap. It was cold and fairly flavourless. The potatos in particular were reheated and rubbery, yet still barely warm. Gravy had little flavour, truly a waste of money. It's a shame as the roasts used to be great here. :(

Had a lovely but roast & a cheeky pint tonight, the kind young blonde waitress (sorry didn't get her name) made me smile, thanks for a nice evening, will be back for another meat roast soon Just revisited seems like its had a lot of positive changes New decor new menu The staff were really friendly especially Jess who was very attentive kudos for her service, forgot my lighter and she noticed I was hoovering and asked me if everything was ok and supplied me with a flame The pork belly was very tasty couple of pints later I was complete Thanks

The refurb is great. The staff were absolutely brilliant. Really welcoming, attentive, happy to help. Food was excellent, especially the steak sandwich. Drinks kept really well and a great selection. Keep it up!

Absolutely beautiful decor and even better food! Very cosy pub, highly recommend

Lovely, cosy pub on Gloucester Road — one of my faves! Excellent beer selection, good vibes and great outdoor garden which is perfect for sunny days.

Amazing place, cannot reccomend it more for some lovely pub and grub

Food spot on, price nice. Ambiance up my street and their peroni on tap tasted so so SO good!!

Would highly recommend. Took my family to the flyer for Sunday roast. Food was amazing and the staff were so friendly. I congratulate the manager on employing such a happy team of staff.

Siempre espera con ansia el examen de Liam un lunes por la noche. Regularmente venimos con amigos solo por eso, hemos probado otros cuestionarios locales, pero ninguno es tan bueno como este.

Pasé con colegas a tomar algo antes de cenar. El ambiente es excelente, los precios de las bebidas eran respetables y se sentía como un lugar agradable para una pinta. Volverá cuando pase en el futuro.

Siempre pasa un buen rato aquí en el examen los lunes, definitivamente el mejor en el área, ya que Liam hace el examen tan grande con un montón de rondas divertidas y preguntas. Las bebidas y la comida también son deliciosas.

Espero con ansias el cuestionario con mis amigos cada semana, es súper divertido y el ambiente siempre es genial. Liam es un gran anfitrión, manteniendo a todos comprometidos y riendo durante todo el asunto, con grandes preguntas y premios. ¡No podemos esperar al concurso de Navidad!

We've just had an excellent Sunday roast at the Flyer (which has just been refurbed). I had a very tasty and nicely textured nut roast; my wife had a crispy pork belly. Served with yorkshire pudding, carrot, parsnip, roast potatoes and cabbage, with piping hot gravy and horseradish and apple sauces. Plus a tasty cauliflower cheese on the side. Very good service, and interested landlord checking all was ok. Not expensive at current rates - thoroughly recommended!

The interior is lovely and comfortable. Lots of space and a large garden plus seating out front. The cocktails are delicious (I had a dark and stormy). Plus, they're dog friendly!

Not bad selection of beers but no real ales etc. Staff were friendly and helpful

I had a great time this Sunday, great service by Fiona and lovely chats! Thank you x

Excellent value lunches, including some unusual dishes. Seating inside and out. Dog-friendly. Parking nearby can be tricky, but numerous buses pass by on Gloucester Road.

Great food great place friendly staff

Cheap pint great laugh we love quizmaster liam cheers

Great pub, the quiz run by Liam on a Monday night is always a good laugh

came in about 1pm (08/09) was told roast where booking only… thankfully we had a booking! we where served by tegan who was lovely! walked us though the menu perfectly and suggested the beef… it was beautiful. My son had the chicken and raved about it! will definitely be back next sunday! ! definitely a new roast spot 💕

Did not have food. Peroni £6 was not good at all smelt awful - would not care if was not £6 Madri however was perfect. Just not sure what was going on with the peroni. Staff brilliant so nice ( 07/09)

Nice to sit in the garden in the Sun but the Service was slow because there was only one bar person. Food was surprisingly very nice. Chicken Schnitzel. Beer was exceptionally pricey burning of the times. Overall pretty good but the building needs a couple of licks of paint.

Came in on bank holiday monday, food was fab and service was quick… all around a solid pub with a fab location

Fiona was amazing. The elderflower drink she made us tasted incredible. Great pub!

The Boss 2.0 was the best burger I have ever had, and I am fussy! Great place will definitely come again. Thank you

Really enjoyed the place! Sat out in the garden and watched the football. Prices were good, it was busy in a good way and great atmosphere

Fun slight chaotic place on a Sat night with everyone getting ready for the evening. Cool place to hang out

lovely bartender called fiona was so sweet and made my day <3 food was brilliant and i would recommend the beer garden if you ever find yourself on gloucester road on a sunny day x

Gorgeous pub with lovely staff and good drinks. However, the food is hugely overpriced for what you get. You pay £12-15 for a burger which is small, average quality, and comes with nothing - no chips, salad, veg.. just a tiny lone burger. We ordered a side of 'slaw' and it was clearly from a bag of supermarket coleslaw mix - the cabbage was dried up and going brown - with a load of salad dressing dumped on top. There are no kids' food options. They offered to do a kids' chicken schnitzel with chips, which the kids enjoyed, but there was no possibility of peas or other healthy side to go with it. If they sorted out their menu and offered a good range of unpretentious, good value, quality food for all the family, it would be the perfect pub!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at this pub! From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their warmth and attentiveness truly made us feel at home. The selection of drinks is impressive, with something to suit every taste. The food, however, was the highlight – it was simply amazing! Every dish we tried was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. This pub has quickly become one of my favourite spots, and I can't wait to return. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great time!

The garden was better before the roof went on but understand why they did

Great friendly staff. Always happy to help great black pudding. And they offer a veggie option so that keeps the other half happy.

Excellent pub, friendly staff and good food. Outside seating to enjoy sun if you are lucky. Lots of varied seating inside. Great selection of beers some of which are local and the food was quick too.

Large pub on Gloucester Road, good range of drinks

Thank you Luc for your attention tonight ,food was amazing on top of your customer service was amazing, always kept an eye on us. He made sure we had a brilliant night!! We will be back soon.

Wonderful customer service, amazing food and great atmosphere! Sam and Luc did a great job! Very welcoming and professional people. Will be back soon. Thanks for make our evening nice. Keep it doing guys !! 😊😊

Best quiz in Bristol Liam is a 10/10 quiz host! The fries are also good as is the drink selection! But the quiz is the real draw to the pub every Monday!

The garden is perfect for a Friday afternoon when you want to forget the work.

Sam was my server, excellent customer service, great knowledge of the area and brilliant drinks

I have used every pub on the Gloucester Road for over 30 years, but it's always the Flyer for me. Great staff, good food, amazing selection of drinks all of which can be enjoyed either indoors or in the generous garden. I enjoyed my Buddha bowl today, thank you.

Food was really good and service was brilliant. Atmosphere was great until the Dj started playing as he was awful. But would definitely visit again just on a different night.

Sam is THE best bartender ever! orla is great as well! the best drink best pub and the best jokes around

Great pub with a great bartender called Sam - give him a award for best bartender

Sam and the girl with the fringe 10:10

Had the most AMAZING bartender called Josh. He made my life!!!! (and my night). He was so charismatic, fun and energetic. Best bartender I have ever had! I wish there was more Josh’s on the bartender scene. Funniest guy ever

josh was the nicest bartender so lovely!! loved him, would definitely be returning. Customer service is a very significant deal when it comes to a pub in my opinion!

Thanks josh for hand squeezing lime

5 star service from Josh squeezes the best lime

This is my favourite pub in Bristol. I couldn’t recommend this place anymore. For students, family’s and everything in the middle. The staff are ; funny, always a good laugh and extremely helpful. If you’re stopping by in Bristol or even a local this pub should be on the top of your list to visit.

Gromit! Drinks are prohibitively expensive though

Went on a Monday night which happens to be quiz night was really good! Had a laugh full off students as close by atmosphere was good defo recommended

Get the right balance between noisy and quiet to watch a football game. Staff is extremely friendly. The outdoor part gives you chance to experience the sunshine and enjoy the game at the same time.

Went there recently to meet an old mate before we went to see Rovers play. It was 6:30pm Tuesday evening... so quite quiet. Staff very helpful and Neck Oil fine! Plus Rovers won!

Rammed with students on a Saturday night. Nice atmosphere. Good service but quite slow, even accounting for the volume of people. Need more bar staff!

Recently revamped, clean, modern and welcoming. Great lunchtime deal from limited menu: meal and a soft drink for £10 excellent value. Large outside seating area some of which is covered.Friendly staff and a Dr No pinball game into the mix, I visit Bristol quite often and would definitely return.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Trad roast superb . Deya beer worth coming for on its own

Brilliant venue. Excellent food and service.

Food.... Poutine fries were amazing. It was the highlight of the weekend.😁🤤. Ps don't tell the Mrs...lol

very nice food and friendly staff

Great food. Awesome service and it's dog friendly

Had a great experience at this pub. Especially thanks to Orla and Sam they were great bartenders.

What up?! This pub is a 5 star man. Their enriched beer would make anyone champion of the sun ☀️

These guys clearly take pride in their pub, very attentive and great selection of wine! Their burgers are delicious, I had a buffalo chicken burger that kicks ass. Love it

I’ve been a regular at the Flyer for a while now. And I’ve seen a lot of stuff come and go. However, Josh is absolutely bar far my favourite I have encountered so far. Not just the once, but multiple times I’ve drank in what I call my favourite pub. I genuinely feel like I’m talking to a friend of mine every time I come in, which makes me very proud to call the flyer my local.

Great pub, great atmosphere, and super friendly bar staff! (Shout out to Josh!)

Great place with great cocktails and the bartender Sam is really nice !!!

Good vibes and good service from sam!

Great pub fantastic service, Josh and Tom had great beer recommendations

Had a great time at the Flyer last night. Staff were really friendly (many thanks to Josh and Tallulah), service was quick and I really enjoyed my chicken schnitzel and loaded fries!

Josh is the best, give him a raise.

Good atmosphere and friendly staff

Roast dinner was very diasppointing

Great atmosphere, food and friendly staff. Only thing I’d recommend is not turning up the music so loud, especially midweek. On the upstairs sofas it really blasts making talking difficult.

Had a fun night at The Flyer this week, good food, great drinks and super friendly staff!

Luc and Ola(?) Were fantastic, great service and amazing cocktails, 10/10

Luc, Ola and Tallulah are so fantastic!!! The service, drinks and vibes were 10/10

Lovely food, great service. Luke recommended Stiegl, lovely German beer!
