9. Commercial Rooms, Corn Street, Old City - 4/5
Located in Corn Street, the 1811 building was formerly a gentlemen’s club and meeting place for the city’s merchants. It was also home of the first telegraph office in Bristol in 1852 after the completion of the Great Western Railways. Many of the reviews praise how many of the original features of the building have remained. | Google Maps
10. W G Grace, Whiteladies Road - 4/5
Wetherspoon's conversion on the Clifton Down 'strip', opened in August 2012. A surprisingly well-lit pub that stretches way back from the road. Old photos and posters adorn the walls, and there is ample seating for diners. | Google
