Definitely one of the best pubs in Bristol. It seems like sooner or later everyone will turn up at the Hatchet, so it is always worth a look round to see who is there, you never know when you might bump into a folk rock band having a pre gig drink.

Probably a farmhouse originally, The Hatchet housed a stable yard, stood in an ancient warren of narrow streets and has reputedly been witness to bare knuckle fighting and cock fighting, (now more likely to happen at the neighbouring Queens Shilling!).
Somehow the Hatchet has even survived the blitz and town planners!
The exterior of the pub is the thing of note - the interior has been ripped apart, although who knows what may lie tucked away behind the surface.
A much-told local story is that human skin lurks beneath the layers of tar on the front door.
