About The Old Market Tavern

The Old Market Tavern is the old-school pub option in Bristol’s LGBTQ+ village: a Grade II-listed building, a straightforward bar and a mixed local crowd. Visit Bristol continues to include it among the city’s queer-friendly Old Market venues.\n\nCome here when you want a pint, conversation and a less performative atmosphere rather than drag or a dancefloor. It also works well as an early stop before moving deeper into Old Market nightlife.
