The Old Post Office Fishponds in Bristol, City of

Good environment, good drinks. Not very expensive. But our experience was ruined by a staff member. I visited this place because of a very good review by one of my friend. She made us feel that maybe i wasn’t welcome. Took our order in a very passive aggressive and dismissive way. For no reason, assuming because we looked different than everyone around. Maybe she was having a bad day. Although ruined our night.

Great choice of drinks and very knowledgeable bar man.

Friday night DJ playing some banging 90's classics and good beer Some people.say it's a bit clicky but we felt quite relaxed

Served a chicken and bacon salad which was genuinely the worst food I have ever ordered in my life, the chicken was comparable to fisher price play food and the "bacon" is what I can only describe as an erased shaved on top of it. We didn't care for a refund but the front of house staff were absolutely incredible and the manager sorted us with a round of free drinks. Never had an issue with the food here before, but god, that was seriously bad. Knock the salads off the menu guys 👍

Quiet family meal enjoyed on a Sunday morning.Surprised no roast dinner on the menu,but place was clean and meal was good.

I'm biased but I love the place, team are great as are the beers, always willing to go the extra mile for any requests & always have a good time

Popped in for all day breakfast and to be honest it looked like it had been cooked and left out all day lol bear in mind it was miday when I purchased this frankinstein creation, the toast was barely toasted yet it was rock hard, the tomato was cold and suffering from some sort of dehydration, and the mushrooms all wrinkled up and dehydrated,the eggs were poached well they speak for themselves lol, the sausages had been deep fat fried and shrivelled up, the bacon has been cooked on a dirty hot plate hence all the black bits on it, beans were hot so we're hash browns, thank you for your reply I would love to pop back and give you a glowing review on what you really can cook. Have a nice day.

I like the Old Post Office for sure. You should know that it is going to be a pub that will attract all types of people. They have a good pool table, many TVs and more cheaper drinks than the pubs around. I have already eaten there, it is nice, especially the spicy wings. The staff is always very prepared to work with a range of people that appear there. I do not know if the price or story of that place interferes, but I have seen people being impolite with staff for fun, which is ridiculous, but they managed it very well. I will return for sure.

Love it here, been popping in regularly since I moved to the area, always so friendly, and the foods always been great! Keep doing what you’re doing

Service was very adequate but I wish I could say the same for the food. Ordered the fish and chips and it came out cold and soggy.

Shocking management keep running out of cider and beer laughable what a joke I won't be going there again and te5my friends not to go there

To busy waited ages to be served.

I had to go home and wash all my clothes and have a shower . IT WAS LIKE GOING IN TO A FISH AND CHIP SHOP. THE WHOLE PUB SMELLS.

Me and my partner came here for first time and the food was good and there was lots on menu to choose from good for value for money also they have kids menu too good for watching sports including football matches because they have big screens I would highly recommend and definitely come back again

The food is good for the price, service is pretty good aswell. The other people can be a bit noisy as expected in a pub. The seats are comfortable but some are a bit far from the tables. Better than the wetherspoons.

A lunch time well spent. Pleasent place music good not to loud. Food amazing for the price . Bartender helpful and pleasant.

Clean, bright and beautiful decorative Pub/ gastro. First time of being in inside the place and glad I made the decision to grab some lunch. Although it was fairly quiet, I looked around for a good table and sat opposite the bar. I knew what I wanted from seeing the menu outside and order the sausage and mash with a drink. The gentleman from the bar gave brilliant customer service and a nice patter. My food came quickly and was offered a spoon and any additional condiments. The food was hot and delicious. Great customer service was given to every customer and not pushy . Definitely worth the visit

Great atmosphere for watching the football

Wow.. What a beautiful building and amazing venue.. good food, great service and a brilliant atmosphere. Couldn’t ask for more

Amazing staff!! So attentive and just a wonderful bunch!! Please higher these or give an assenitive!! They deserve it Maddie Beth Drew They really do deserve it, they work so so so hard, And they are the best staff you have!! What a bunch! An amazing night and great drinks and great customer service! Would come again all the time xxx

Drew was wonderful! So friendly and made great recommendations! I’ll absolutely be back for another Lilleys Mango, thank you

We popped in on Friday evening and had such a laugh! Drew was so fun and friendly and kept recommending things for us to try the 2-4-1 cocktails was such a good deal! Thank you Drew we’ll be back

Had lovely meal there. Plenty of choice, prompt service and reasonably priced. Have been there several times and never disappoints.

Food 2/5 Iceland food. The peas and rice were defrosted and microwaved. The chicken had equal amounts of chicken and batter. Not enough gravy. Tasted bland. Service 5/5 Got a pint. Pint was good. Atmosphere 2/5 The carpets were sticky, the table had sticky residue from a drying up liquid and the sofas look like they've never been washed. Actually the only liquid the sofas had seen isn't washing liquid, it's beer and cider. Cutlery and serviettes were left in a mini bucket on the table for all of the dust and what not to get on it. Not hygienic... Weatherspoons have higher cleanliness standards.

Favourite place on fishponds Road. The bar staff are amazing. Great prices. Lovely little outside seating area and most importantly DOG FRIENDLY

Very nice place.lovely and clean, istaff super friendly and helpful..food was amazing especially the onion rings! Highly recommended!

I had a great time here. Staff were lovely and a great vibe. Thank you!

great pub had a lovely drink and the atmosphere and staff where 10/10! i’ll be back next week for sure !

Great service and lovely staff, would highly recommend. Will be visiting again!

Staff were fantastic. There was a great atmosphere and the food was brilliant (especially for the price). Would highly recommended. Kieran and Fin were really accommodating and friendly!

Good place to eat with family, the pool cues weren't the best but besides that it's a solid place. (bonus points for the free WiFi)

Monday's are not the best day to visit, a lot of the drink offers weren't in stock... My bacon cheeseburger was nice but would have been better with smoked bacon... My housemates fish was perfectly cooked and delicious!

a really good place to stop off for lunch when visiting fishponds.family and wheel chair friendly ,its reasonable for a meal as a family and we enjoyed our lunch, well recommended. the staff our friendly and helpful

Very quick serving food and drinks.

One of the best pubs in fishponds. Kieran, Maddie, Beth & James are all amazing! 10/10 service every time. Cheap pints & amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend

Absolutely horrendous experience on a Tuesday evening. Endured an excruciating 4 minutes of waiting for any sign of service at the bar, only to find the staff mysteriously absent. To add insult to injury, several delightful beers and lagers were disappointingly out of stock, and the pint of lager I managed to order was distressingly lukewarm and devoid of any fizz. The sheer lack of quality for the price paid was utterly disheartening, leading me to abandon ship and seek refuge in another establishment with comparable prices but exponentially superior service. As a local resident, I can confidently say that this pub would not even make the list of my top choices.

Try to call their restaurant to ask for some enquiry. Well, got hang up straight away without even speaking! I can heard the sound okay? - 'Took the phone up and put it back down - BEEP!!!' Thanks!

Great pub with great prices, Ciaran is a great bar man with great customer service making me feel very welcome. The food is amazing

Amazing staff Lewi and Kieran look after us every day and quality service. £2.50 morreti for students couldn’t ask for anything else.

Unreal service. Kieron is the best and very accommodating. We appreciate you!

The old post office is a great little pub if you’re looking for lovely food, cheap drinks (£2.50 Moretti on the student discount) and good vibes. The service is very cheerful and friendly, especially from the bartender Kieran who is very very helpful. Big up The Old Post.

great pub, kieran sorted the football for us and a really kind member of staff!

Kieran was so accommodating for our group by making sure the best game of football was on for us. COME ON YOU IRONS ⚒️

Kieran is a legend, sorted out the football on the tv. Great customer service and made me feel very welcome

One of the best pubs along fishponds road always good atmosphere, great staff and impeccable service. Great for uni students too with lots of great student discounts. The bartender kieren always knows our order straight away and all the other staff are massively friendly and helpful too.

Our new local great food and service especially Kieran knows our order before we even ask. come down daily for the student discount great pub love it

Poor. If I could give no stars I would. The security staff and Area Manager are disrespectful, rude bullies. We will never ever spend another penny in here. There are much nicer places to go in Fishponds where you will be made really welcome. Don’t bother going to The Old Post Office honestly.

I was served by a gentleman called Keiran. Very professional and well mannered. Good drink selection and even 2-4-1 cocktails for only £10. Food was great, we had a cheese burger and a fish shop platter and both were amazing. Will definitely be returning 👍

Love this place. Staff are always friendly. They spoil any dogs that go in (love dog lovers!!). Staff go above and beyond, are bubbly and friendly. Made to feel welcome always.

It's the 1st Time ⏲ I've been in there and would Certainly love ❤ to go back in there again.

I went to the old Post office with my friend to have a meal

great place, good food, clean place, but the service leaves something to be desired, I placed my order the attendant did not confirm the order, one of the main requests was not taken, the frustration of waiting hungry for an order that was not due to the arrogance of the employees is disappointing a little more commitment and goodwill in serving customers would come in handy.

friendly staff, decent food, good beer and great for football matches. Great place for premier league or just a pint or two

Great food lovely staff well pleased 😀

Hi. Would you like a Guinness in a moretti glass? Would you like a neck oil in a thatchers glass? Would you like a double vodka and lemonade in a neck oil glass? If so, this is the place for you! Come on down they have lots of televisions

A great local-friendly pub with a signature aesthetic on Fishponds Road. The Old Post Office is a really nice place to go for food and drink. I came here for lunch and it was quiet, had plenty of entertainment like TBs playing sport, a pool table, and even darts. The food and drink was all really nice and well cooked. The price was also great and is a much better option when compared to Wetherspoons. The staff here were very friendly and helpful and kept the place looking tidy and organised. I recommend this place for a quiet bite to eat and perhaps to grab a pint among friends. I will definitely be coming here again.

Don't bother staff had no idea what they were doing. Ordered a wrap with drink should be £9.49 charged £13.. wrap should have been southern fried with bbq sauce what I got was 3 pieces of chewy chicken in a sub with a lot of lettuce

We had a good meal here. It came out wrong initially, but the manager dealt with this very well and we were looked after.

The manager was great, but 1 or 2 of the staff who have served me are very moody/passive aggressive/not good for their job role. Good prices on food (apart from match days, so 3 days a week lol)

Just went in for a pint, they have a good selection of fruity ciders you wouldn’t usually find elsewhere. Good place to watch the football and hang with mates as it has a pool table to keep you occupied

Moved to Bristol 6 months ago and has been become my local pub! Great sports bar, atmosphere and the staff are really friendly and accommodating. Love the Lillys cider! My favourite bar in Fishponds, top marks! 🙂

Staff are great, music is quality and the atmosphere was great throughout! Has pool, darts, live sport and a good selection of drinks

Final farewell to a colleague, we met for lunch. Food was okay

poor service,, didnt clean the table. Food poor portion, banrolls old - maybe from previous day- and a few potatoes on the side and the hamburger looks like mcdonalds. Not be back

I'm not going to comment on cleanliness as the team member was on his own, but the food was delicious. Everything was 100% fresh, chips, buns, salad, chicken nice and moistured, not dry like in other places we have experienced. Will come again to taste more dishes, hopefully they will be as fresh as today. 😊

Had a delicious all day breakfast for dinner . Very good menu and prompt , friendly staff. Recommend 👍

Kieran was amazing!!! He made our brunch experience the best I've had in bristol...amazing brunch value for drinks. Food was very nice although not a huge choice for the brunch but we were more interested in the drinks. Keiran made the experience so much better, he couldn't have done any more for us...thank you kieran 5*

The staff are really lovely and I always enjoy the food. Also very nice to dogs and provide water.

Very quiet but got busier later in the afternoon.

Great place management could not do enough for our 50th birthday party I have never seen a young girl work so really hard Only one bad point music far too loud could not hear your self speak

Really friendly staff, Welcomed me when i walked through the front door. Always smiling and bubbly.

I always have a great time when visiting the pub and the staff are lovely

I have been coming here for years, mostly during uni and now just returning for a couple of drinks. I believe there is some new staff that have started, on the whole they are nice, how we there is one woman who is extremely rude and condescending. She became abrupt and started calling me ‘darling’ in a patronising manner. I have since returned and witnessed her to laugh at me to her with her colleagues and be once again very rude. Very good pub apart from this unprofessional and immature staff member. She has dark curly hair, looks quite young and silly.

Great English breakfast and pint of guinness. Very friendly bar staff.

Went to the old post office with my mates, Had some really nice food, The fish and chips were on point. Will be ordering again!

I had to deescalate a situation with an argumentative drunk guy on a nice Friday evening. However, with my limited English, I was not very successful as he was using slang words such as dog bullocks, etc, and was not easy to understand. I saw he had similar drunk friends there, so after 5 mins I sat down the place was not really enjoyable as these drunk guys keep pestering people who wants to enjoy a few pints of beer and chat with their friends..

Absolutely banging selection of spirits! And really nice customer service.

I went with the girls on Saturday for some drinking and catch up time. The atmosphere was so good the music was pumping playing our favourite singalongs, shots were following being 4 for £10 on tequila 😍 and the cocktails were so nice and even better 2-4-1

Come in for food with the dog and Kieran was very happy to help, the food was amazing and the staff are great Highly recommend coming in

Good music and atmosphere on sat eve

Kieran was spot on great host , perfect bar etiquette, food is top perfect , and dog friendly !

Cheap and cheerful with decent outdoor area

Food wasn't that good. Service not good either. The inside needs a thorough clean. Certainly wouldn't return.

If I could put no stars I would but rude staff. I get you got to ask for ID but ask nicely! There’s no need to be rude!

Brilliant venue welcoming staff great food and drink. Favourite place

Vast improvement since the axis of evil Lee and Jordan got booted out, and stopped stinking the place up! This Brace of Brain-Boiled, Backward, Bunglers ruined this Stonegate pub! How many more Stonegate pubs will they destroy?

Great pub, friendly bar staff, we were served by poppy who was very accommodating and friendly. Will come again

Nice breakfast, much better than the spoon down the road, but it doesn't open until 10:00! Too many large TVs with nobody watching them.

Friendly staff, good food good beer great atmosphere what else do you need.

Tired looking, service very slow

We specifically asked for the drinks that come with the Wednesday chicken offer. The server deliberately gave us drinks that did NOT come with the offer and charged us extra. When we complained they refused to refund despite them giving us drinks we did not order. This is clearly a scam. I advise anyone going here for food to be extra super specific regarding what drinks you are ordering or, better yet, go to a different place where you won’t be deliberately scammed.

Extremely upset with poor customer service. Submitted email complaint but no response. Twice asked for wine that came with daily deal but was ignored and served with wrong wine and charged for it. When I realised I had paid £6.09 more ( cos it wasn’t the right wine I had asked for) wouldn’t reimburse and just told not all drinks were part of the meal deal But I asked twice specifically for the wine that comes with the meal deal. Not sure if they didn’t understand or just chose to ignore me, very disappointed, we as a family won’t go there again .

Horrible place! Went in to find the tables were sticky the place is dirty and the staff are so rude! No one smiles when serving and for me that is unacceptable! Learn how to treat your customers better before you have none left! Place is going massively down hill, used to be a lot better back on the day.

Lovely place with a nice atmosphere to enjoy a good pint, foods spot on and service is great

Always friendly service. 10/10 vibes. Will recommend anyone!! Also bloody gorgeous food! Kiera always makes a banging cocktail!

I love coming to the old post office for drinks with my friends! It's extremely well-priced, a brilliant selection of beers, wines, and spirits, and the staff are brilliant. Special shout-out to Kiera! Always smashing it behind the bar!!!

Just the right place to chill out with friends and have a couple of drinks, quality of the food is average

This is my absolutely favourite place to go out for breakfast or lunch with friends and/or family. Went there again today for lunch (11:50am), the food was excellent and the service was even better. There were warm and welcoming and whilst ordering I had a lovely 5 minutes conversation with Kiera at the bar about lockdo love of Lilleys cider. James and Beth we're really friendly as well. I'd highly recommend this venue to everyone and I'll be back again soon

Reasonable food at reasonable price. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere with the sports on at least 7 TVs

Friendly staff and very kind, caring, attention to the client. Always playing lovely music. Food is okay. Love the looks of the place, nice ambient.
