The Dolphin Inn is a traditional village pub at 141 High Street in Oldland Common, on the eastern side of Bristol. It has the feel of a community local, offering an informal place to meet for food, drinks and conversation.
Food is provided through the Dolphin Kitchen at the same premises, giving the pub a useful role for breakfast and daytime visits as well as drinks. The straightforward setting makes it well suited to a relaxed meal without the formality of a conventional dining room.
Sport is an important part of the experience, with several screens allowing guests to follow major fixtures together. Outdoor seating and a beer garden provide an alternative on brighter days, and dogs are welcomed at the pub.
The bar and social atmosphere remain central, particularly at weekends and during larger sporting events. Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements should ask staff about the current food selection and kitchen preparation before ordering.
Address: 141 High Street, Oldland Common, Bristol BS30 9TD, England
