    Old Market Hall

    Hobnob with the local arts brigade in this posh café-bar in the old drapers hall, underneath a stunning timbered roof and styled to combine city chic with cosy rustic touches. As well as speciality teas, soul-restoring coffees and wines, it serves up a range of sandwiches, wraps, and calorific pastries. It's based in a lively film and media centre.

    Three Fishes

    The quintessential small English alehouse, with a jolly owner, mellow regulars and hops hanging from the 15th-century beamed ceiling. No music here, just real ales on tap and the refreshing atmosphere of a pub that has long been sending smokers outside.

  3. Boat House Inn

    Summer evenings are well spent in the riverside beer garden of this otherwise unexceptional pub, enjoying a view back over the sprawling Quarry Park and the baby-sized Port Hill Suspension Bridge, opened in 1922.

    Armoury

    Despite being a modern invention, the Armoury still manages to feel like it has been here for generations. Inside this inviting pub are long wooden tables, dotted around among floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and assorted collectibles.
