Sublime scenes at the Tap Room on Friday as we welcomed a hero of ours, Alexis Taylor down to take over the controls for the night. The result: one of the most special performances we've played host to, one for the books.

Big cheers also toย Bigger Boat for firing things up
for the sound
Charley Williams for the awesome picsย 
+ The venue crew for keeping things flowing smoothly and of course the dancers for packing the place and bringing the vibes.ย We can't wait to do it all again soon โ™ฅ๏ธ

It's Apple Day at the University of Bristol Bristol Botanic Garden tomorrow- our yearly community apple pressing sesh squishing our city's fruit and turning it into glorious c***r ready for 2027. There's a minor shortage of apples though so this is a call out to all & sundry to bring some fruit- in return you get a share of c***r, plus on the day- tomorrow/4th October from 10am to 3pm we have Morris Dancers, talks, free c***r vs cheese tastings (big shout to The Cheese Connection - Food Truck and Mobile Cheesemonger ) demos & more. Big shout to Branch C***r for stepping in & stepping up too.

Gates open at 10am, it's FREE entry and if you bring an apple or 3 you'll be greeted with an even bigger smile.

With the arrival of 700 or so students on the doorstep of our beloved Tap Room from this weekend, we're doing the sensible thing & making the necessary adjustments: we're tremendously excited to share the news that from next week we're extending our opening hours to include WEDNESDAYS & THURSDAYS.

Expect a more chilled affair than the weekends; board games, talks, quizzes, workshops, lazy & laid back things from 4pm-11pm with ridiculous student-shaped drinks offers to boot. Plus karaoke if you can twist our arm.

We're delighted to be welcoming Timber Yard - Student Accommodation to the community- 6 years in the making and can't wait to raise a glass a 3 with our new neighbours, and our regular friends too.

We've just had a Teams call with the who have confirmed that this Bank Holiday weekend will be drenched in heatwave temps in Bristol. Their suggestion is ice cold fresh c***r to balance ourselves out, and we couldn't agree more. We're toasting the glorious blue skies with a cheeky ยฃ4 deal on all draft pints this Friday & Saturday, in a thinly veiled ploy to attract you to the Silverthorne Lane Rivera; the home of Bristol's only C***r Tap Room. That's all craft c***rs & craft b**rs, an astonishing ยฃ4 on Friday from 4pm-7pm and Saturday 1pm-4pm. Perfect pre / wherever you're heading off to.

Plus we have something new, fresh & tasty launching on Saturday + the c***r from Apple Day 2025 to taste + some ridiculous cheese on the house too. Dreamy.

It's landed for 2026:
What better way to spend a lazy sunny Saturday afternoon than meandering around Bristol's historic harbourside, with generous pours of fine juices including rare Perry's, Single Varieties & ***rbrandy , swinging by c***r institutions such as along the way. A mouth watering pit stop at completes the scene- it's forbidden to enjoy c***r without cheese in some parts of the region. A sublime session, we love it- sharing tales of orchards & stories of c***r in the city we call home โ™ฅ๏ธ

Kicking off this Saturday, and then every otherย Saturday until the weather turns grim. Book using the links in our bio or for groups of 7+, DM us. We've run tours for office parties, stags/hens, birthdays and so on- the more the merrier ๐Ÿป๐ŸŽ‰

Somehow we've found ourselves at the tail end of 2025, with just one more sleep til the biggun. Our evening event with is completely sold out with no tickets on the door- check Headfirst for waiting list. If you've got a ticket, come down early; there's free shots of tequila for the first people through the door at 10pm.

We'll be open during the day- 1.30pm-8pm for daytime / pre-drinks, with fresh c***r, nice b**rs, good tunes, fun times, fully heated until the evening gets into full swing- pop in for a cheeky 3 pints?

We'll be closed for most of January for a recharge/spruce, see you on the other side or see you on the floor ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Big love to for bringing a Future Cowboy theme to the Tap Room this December for a festive banger, ramming the arch with wranglers, ranchers & buckaroos and a handful of robots for good measure: a c***r soaked footstomp into the night.

Hit us up with your party ideas- we're up for ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜ things, and love sharing our space. We have a tasty soundsystem, a late license, and drinks extending far beyond c***r- b**rs from .ales **rfactorytaproom coffee tequila, nice spirits, good wines, tasty low/no options & frozen margs too.

Season's Greetings from Silverthorne Lane โค๏ธ
