Welcome to The Farside, your local dive bar nestled in the heart of Bristol’s cultural quarter, inside the historic Carriageworks building. Our bar was inspired by the gritty charm and vibrant spirit of New York City and California’s best dive spots – think laid-back vibes, unforgettable cocktails, and the perfect pint.
At The Farside, we pride ourselves on serving the best locally produced beers, spirits, and cocktails, alongside a carefully curated selection of classics. As part of the Left Handed Giant family, we share the same commitment to quality and community. LHG is a fully independent, Bristol-based brewery, known for its passion for craft beer, sustainability, and ethical practices. Like LHG, we’re proud to be a B Corp and Carbon Neutral, supporting our employees and the community that makes us who we are.
So, whether you’re here for a night out with friends, a relaxed drink after work, or just to soak in the atmosphere, you’re always welcome at The Farside. Grab a drink, make yourself at home, and enjoy the best that Bristol has to offer.
