A pub in Bedminster has been named in the UK's Good Beer Guide only a year after opening. Old Bookshop on North Street joins six other Bristol pubs in CAMRA's highly coveted list of the UK's best for its 50th-anniversary edition.
Laura Guest, co-owner of Old Bookshop with partner Neil Hemus, has just celebrated the pub's first anniversary since the couple took it over in 2021. They have a high focus on having good quality beer, wines and spirits from independents.
Speaking to BristolLive, Laura said: "We're really quite pleased and proud. We're only just one year old now so to be recognised already feels like a huge personal achievement for us. Cask beer, especially, is something that we really care about.
