Description

Sitting right at the top of Bristol's famous Whiteladies road, The King's Arms is an impressive 18th Century building. Set over three floors, this historic building offers an array of different spaces to cater for any type of occasion or celebration. 

On the ground floor sits the cafe bar, this is the smallest of the areas and with its own private bar offers a more intimate space for smaller events, or even just a few cocktails after work.

You can then use the ornate wrought-iron staircase which takes you up to the main bar, here you will find a long, marble topped bar displaying a wide selection of draught beers, lagers, ciders, wines and spirits. This is the biggest space in the building and where the majority of big events take place. It even boasts a stage at one end and a giant projector screen which can show Sky Sports and BT Sports. Throughout this space you will find multiple widescreen TVs showing live sport.

If you then go up the next set of stairs, you will find the upper mezzanine level, this great space gives you a wonderful view over the main bar, so you can feel the atmosphere but with a more intimate feel. There is also a number of widescreen televisions up here as well. With plenty of charming antique furniture and quirky decorative pieces, this is a wonderful place to while away an evening with a few friends or book it out for a big event. 

Out the back of the main bar, up the stone stairs you will find the charming, sun drenched (weather dependent) terrace. On the days that we are lucky enough to have some sunshine there is no better place to enjoy it, and for the more predictable wetter weather, there are a number of gazebos and heaters to keep you dry and warm.
