WELCOME TO HIGHBURY VAULTS
Located close to Bristol University and the hospital, The Highbury Vaults is everyone’s favourite local, from students, lecturers and academics to doctors and nurses. Dating back to the early 1800’s, this pub is still very traditional inside with leather bench seating and its original snug bar with a jug and bottle. Step through the pub and into the beautiful hidden walled garden where you can enjoy your favourite tipple, or a bite to eat in the sunshine.
A great real ale selection is on offer from guest ales and Youngs alike.
The Highbury Vaults also appears in the CAMRA Heritage Guide and the Good Pub Guide.

What a fab little find. First visit to this area and came across this pub and absolutely loved it. Cosy inside and welcoming staff who let us sample the cider before buying and a fantastic beer garden with heaters that meant you could sit outside even in January. Will definitely be back next time I visit Bristol.
Really cute quaint little pub dating back to the early 1800's. Traditional inside and serving great cider on tap and an amazing pint of Guinness! Staff are so friendly and welcoming, you need to be quick to get a table as it's pretty busy, they also have a gorgeous garden out the back with heating lamps - perfect for cold evenings like this. Really nice atmosphere, definitely recommend it to anyone staying around the Clifton area.
Return visit after 30 years still lovely and atmospheric, just a different brewery (no more Smiles 🙁 but a good beer range as Young's. Limited lunch offers but enjoyed the pasty.
Brilliant atmosphere. Traditional but quirky pub, with loads of interesting decor. We visited on a Friday evening so it was very loud and busy, but we did manage to find a table for 2 with no trouble. Pints were around £5.40 which for us is a lot of money, so we only stayed for 1 pint. Definitely worth forking out for an expensive drink just to experience this place!
Awesome pub. Sam was our barkeep and made us feel welcome. Beautiful beer garden and charming pub in general. There is an adorable toy train that runs through the walls, which was a whimsical surprise. Thanks for the great drinks and conversation!

In common with the best pubs in Bristol, the Cotham Porter Stores is a true community pub, the sort of place where people are comfortable to go and have a quiet drink on their own or to have a fun evening with friends.
