Situated on the river at Hotwells (where the docks meet the Avon), this magnificent stone edifice was originally a pumping station used to generate power for emptying locks and turning swing bridges. These days, it has a very different function and has recently undergone a transformation from down-at-heel boozer to fashionable gastro pub.
Inside, there's a capacious bar and informal dining area, plus a stylish upstairs restaurant lit by large church candles; the waterside patio is a great fine-weather attraction.
