Four in a Pub is a Bristol-based pub review collective on a mission to uncover the very best (and occasionally the not-so-best) pubs the city has to offer. We’re four everyday pub-goers exploring Bristol one pint at a time, sharing honest, down-to-earth reviews you can actually trust.
No pretension, no fluff—just genuine opinions on the atmosphere, drinks, food, and everything in between. Whether you’re searching for a cosy corner, a lively local, or your next favourite spot, Four in a Pub is here to guide the everyday pub dweller through Bristol’s thriving pub scene. Please note... We do visit establishments mid-week and depending on the season / weather, may vary our opinion!

Marnie, Sam, Simon & Paul meet each Wednesday at a chosen location within walking distance of Whitchurch, UK. Marnie & Sam get their steps in after work, whilst the gents meet them after they finish work! This has been a historical event but in 2025 it was decided to document the outings in a pub review book :)

The purpose of us doing what we do has been looked at by some as a mid-life crisis! Which, maybe it is?! But we just felt it was a good idea, something to incorporate into our weekly get togethers and to be honest, we enjoy doing it and hope it encourages people to help support our locals keep their business’s going in these trying times.

We will continue to have our weekly get together‘s and share our experience here for you all to divulge in the hope it gives you an insight into the pubs we experience along the way. If what we are doing is of use to you and your fr, please let us know and continue to check out our website and please, recommend any pubs for us to visit and review.
