Had a great experience there staff were friendly when arriving.
Great selection of ciders for myself and gins for my friend.
Food was hot and presented well with great service by Casey and quick .
On my next visit will definitely return to this great family run pub.
Well done to the chef on the day Lucas

The staff were welcoming and the service was excellent. Generous food portions and huge variety of drinks to sample. This was a lovely stop to meet friends

We regularly play scrabble here. The staff are friendly, pleasant and helpful. Excellent pub. Haven't tried the food but it always looks good and others often are eating there.

It's a lovely pub with really good food (the best fish and chips in Portishead) and friendly staff. Good music!

Just a lovely experience: friendly staff.
Realistic about the room being a bit noisy at the weekend from the bar. We didn't find it too bad at all.
Food great and all extremely good value.

Very friendly staff and warm atmosphere, enjoyed my dinner and breakfast the next day! So kind, they let us stay overnight in our little campervan, much room in the car park too! Darts, pool table and covered kids area in the big garden!

This pub is so beautiful, has a friendly atmosphere and the staff is so kind.
I went there to use a promotional voucher and fell in love with the place.
Worth to mention that they have events (quiz, live music) on certain days of the week. If you want a quiet evening, better go in other days.

Came here to watch live music 🎶 the 789s, who were very good. Enjoyed a couple of drinks, friendly bar staff. Didn't eat on this occasion. Would visit again.

Accommodating atmosphere for the Monday Afternoon Scrabble Club. Coffee or a pint.
Such a good use of space. Thank you, Ladies.

2nd time ordering off Deliveroo . Good fab , fresh and hot. Very reasonably priced. Good stay in date night option. Probably the best takeaway on Deliveroo ! Highly recommend fish burger and loaded chicken bbq fries.
Kenny Day
Good pint, didn't have any food so can't rate it. Others were eating so I assume pretty reasonable. Just popped in while having a mooch about Portishead

We stayed here overnight in our motorhome. The Poacher staff were really great. We had fish and chips for tea and a full English for breakfast. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We had a few bevvies with the locals and a singalong to the entertainment. There is no charge to stay as long as you eat and drink in the pub. The car park is large and flat. Portishead is a lovely little town.

Wow, Sian Powell & Gary Berwick have made a great job with this extensive refurbishment of The Poacher. A free house that was first licenced neck in 1683 and has seen many owners. It finally became known as The Poachers in the 1970's.
"You really must disregard any reviews before it's relaunch on November 24th 2018."
Review date: 13th December.
Friendly staff, good beers and some great looking food. The interior is bright, clean and very welcoming.
Gary and the staff at that time made you feel at home.
The menu has a good selection to choose from but I had had to choose the 8oz rib eye steak cooked medium rare, and I must say, I was very impressed with the quality. It just fell apart with hardly any force at all.
"As a note, medium rare is just that, a lovely pink colour."
The plates even came out pre warmed and the chips were double cooked. Very enjoyable with the rich creamy peppercorn sauce.
But, a picture can tell a thousand words, so here are a few I took.
It's well worth the visit.
Regards D & Happy Christmas.

Very busy for a Wednesday evening and staff were rushed of their feet, but extremely friendly and helpful.
Only thing that let the place down was the awful smell in the female toilets, likely linked to the 3 that were out of order.
