   Absolutely amazing, I purchased a bottle of traditional mead from Edward at the Cardiff Christmas market! Lovely man and you can tell he’s naturally a good natured person. Previously, I had never tried mead, and today I was able to try the different types, which all of them were stupendous. Although I don’t drink that much, I think I’m obsessed with this now. Thank you!

   Bought a bottle at Bristol Christmas market , Saturday 21st. The man so kindly gave us a taster, was going to give it as a gift but couldn’t resist keeping it for myself, so tasty and sweet, will definitely be looking to buy again. Thankyou

   Bought 2 types of mead, as yet have only tried the oak-aged one but it is gorgeous! Can't wait to try the other! Thank you! Especially when it a lovely hand written note, great personal touch! Hope to be buying more soon!

   A deliciously wonderful find! Stopped by on a bicycle ride. The staff was welcoming and warm. More than happy to ask questions to tailor one of their offerings to you. They have a small selection of beers, but very different from what you would find elsewhere. An incredibly diverse and tasty selection of meads including a barrel aged traditional mead that comes in at 20% ABV that will make your socks roll up and down!

   Mead-iocre ! If you’re looking for something that tastes like mead that has had is happiness sucked out of it, or someone that enjoys a flavoured gin but want the taste of disappointment, then this will be for you! Worst mead I have ever bought! Purchased thinking it was a nice selection of local meads, but didn’t notice it was 4% bottles and sparkling!! Basically taste like watered down over carbonated pop. I could taste the carbonated gas more than the expected sweetness of the traditional honey flavours! I hope this place does proper mead too, and realises that this is a failure! Disappointment in a bottle!

   Great service, bartender is super cool and is also the beekeeper! Nice to visit in general but also as a quick trip from Bristol. :)

   The staff were busy preparing the venue for opening their tap room at the time of the visit, but the space already looks amazing. Currently, bottles of their mead and beer are available for takeaway from the Meadery/Brewery and via their website. Keep up the great work.
