In an Instagram post, the pub wrote: “We're immensely proud to have had the privilege of being the custodians of the Knowle for the past 10 years.

“In that time, we've built the pub's food & drink offering to epitomise Zazu's ethos of high quality and championing local, as well as keeping alive a unique community spirit.

“It's now time for a change at the Knowle, and we're both sad to see it leave the Zazu's family and excited to see what it can become under its new owners.

“The Knowle will be in safe hands, as we're passing the reins to current General Manager Mike and his new business partner Alex.

“We wish them all the best of luck with their new venture and this new chapter in the life of the Knowle.

“We can't wait to return for an amazing Sunday roast and pint of Bristol ale on the other side of the bar!

“We'd like to thank all our amazing staff who have worked with us over the years, as they are what makes the Knowle truly special. We know you're in good hands!

“We've loved being a part of life in Knowle - thank you to all our customers and we hope you'll continue to show the same support to the pub and new owners.”

The Knowle will relaunch under the new management on Saturday, October 18, from 5pm.
