Bristol Interest - The Coronation Tap, Sion Mews Clifton - A Large Oak Framed Boer War Coloured Lithograph ‘Lord Roberts Entering Petoria’ (On the 5th of June 1900) After Richard Caton Woodville bearing a gilt lettered type-set card inscribed ‘Between 1900 and 1970 This Print Hung in the Bar of the Coronation Tap Clifton and was Given by Dick Bradstock, Landlord’ mounted framed and glazed, 87cm x 63cm George Brown landlord (1882 - 1917).The Coronation Tap is one of, if not the most, famous cider houses in the world. It is located in Clifton, near the Suspension Bridge, and has been for the past few centuries. Originally a farm, it became a cider house sometime around the late eighteenth century and has been trading as such, with the same name, ever since. Now a Bristol institution with a global reputation, the Cori Tap deserves to be on every cider lover's itinerary.Although the Coronation Tap has a long history, it might be argued that its finest hour was in more recent times. Around 40 years ago the pub's then landlord, Dick Bradstock, waged a one-man war against the Permissive Sixties. Mr Bradstock's rules stated that there were to be no public displays of affection, not even between married couples. Scruffy hair and clothes were not permitted. Ladies were not served pints, only half-pints. Patrons were not allowed to refer to the cider as scrumpy. Requests for spirits were frowned upon, only cider and beer were served. The furniture was not allowed to be moved, even moving a stool from an empty table earned a stern rebuke. What happened if someone brought down the wrath of Mr Bradstock My parents were in the pub one evening when a young man requested some scrumpy. The landlord turned off all the pub lights until the young man realised the error of his ways and left in a cloud of embarrassment. From the ‘The Best Old Pubs in Bristol’.
