I’ve definitely had a drink there on a Thursday before.

Would be great if there was an official guide to all the bars etc and what gets played there, especially after the headliners.  Used to enjoy ending the night at the Williams Green tent, so would be good to know if there's a similar (albeit smaller!) alternative this year.

I also remember stumbling upon a small bar on my way back to my tent in 2017... was near Pyramid and playing 90s Britpop... no idea what it was called, and sadly it wasn't listed anywhere.

Would be good to have a list of all bar/pub DJ sets... and by genre, not just the name.  Hoping to find somewhere after the headliners that plays Williams Green or 90s indie type stuff.

 

 

The taphouse has an indie disco every night 9pm-3am

do any of them do a nice IPA of a decent strength (around 5%)?  I struggled to find anything in the bars that weren't 4% or lower.

Cornish Arms, Avalon Inn and Cockmill have the best selection of ales/IPA in my opinion.

Kasbah is now Taphouse.  Similar vibe but I preferred the former incarnation.

Anyone got a picture of trickets? Can't think what it looks like

[StuwieG]

Also slightly off topic, was flicking through pics before. This is from 2010. Anyone know where this is? I remember it being by the BBC introducing stage, and had a sun terrace bit?

Yep. I got hammered on the balcony their on the Wednesday in 2015 and fell asleep in my tent at around 9. Woke up at 01:00 though and went for a wander.

I understand your point, but part of the beauty of Glastonbury is wandering around and discovering all these things, or getting involved in online forums like this!

Actually, that is so so true!  Best accidental moment last year was passing by Bread and Roses on the way back from Macca, and stumbling upon (who I now know to be...) Showhawk Duo covering Bohemian Rhapsody - a great Glasto moment!

I really miss Pennard wine on the path up to Avalon. Met some great people just sitting outside there watching the world go by.

Any recommended little bars off the main drag much appreciated.

Cheers

I think I've seen one before (mainly for when people have made bar crawl maps) but does anyone have a map of some of the better bar/pubs at Glastonbury?

The Cornish Arms and the bar by Acoustic have had Proper Job in the past, great beer and around 5%.

one of my favourite beers!  Usually 4.5 on tap I think, but that would be fine

 

thanks.

 

I shall look harder next time!

The highest point of the site... by the Glastonbury sign. 

I'm of two minds about Trickets! It's great to be able to buy booze up there, but it was lovely when it wasn't there and the Crows Nest felt a bit more secret!

Can you remind me where the Taphouse is please? 

[rubenz]

Some I have enjoyed over the years.

Strummerville bar - large portions of spirits and nice campfire vibe

Cider Bus - Ginger Donkey Cocktails

Wine Bar - Tasty bottle of wine to get you back on track

Avalon - great for chilling in the day

Beat Hotel - For an afternoon sesh of strong generic lager 

Bimble Inn - Good ales and cool late night bands

Tricketts - Top overall ambience and views.

Rum Shack - For the rums

Spike Bar - Not so much the bar but a cool meeting point.

It's the pint glass icon, under the "F" in Leftfield, on this year's map! (ie Opposite Vodaphone / on the way to West Holts!)

[mufcok]

Anyone know where on site serves Guinness? Bimble Inn has in recent years, feel like there's a couple more but they escape me

[amfy]

I love both the Avalon Inn and The Ridge & Furrow.

[chuckles07]

This is from last year i think so wont be completely accurate but might help some folks…. Edit - actually it’s older than i thought and does need updating quite a lot.
