I was there as well probably just behind that picture being taken :-)

Moments like that are the thing I love most about the festival, we just ran in to get out of the rain and had the most amazing time, not long now.

That's what happened to us when we ended up in The Bread & Roses. Saw some unique things in there!!!

I like the fluffy rock, it's just across from the green peace boat (I think) 2 rum cocktails for a tenner, generous measures too! And if your lucky you'll catch mik artistic singing about a plastic fox! 

2nd Fluffy rock cafe and we caught Mik artistik too last year

As other have said you need to include The Cornish Arms near leftfield as you go towards the Pyramid and The Theatre bar in the T&Cs field. I would include Cockatoo bar at the bottom of T&C field near the entrance too as great strong cocktails

Add the acoustic bar as well

Looking at a decent pub crawl for the Thursday, have I left out any good bars. If so can you name them and tell me where they are.

 

Cheers

Also, i won't bother with the below bars from your list as they don't really have anything different (IMO)

• Bar on the green
• solstice bar
• Mandela bar

As @clarkete has commented on the neglected duplicate of this thread, there was a lot of discussion of the merits of the various bars on this recent thread:

Double post sorry.

Muppetry!

There's a good one up behind the cinema too. Can't remember the name mind.

Shaun.

 

edited to say this is probably the accoustic one already mentioned.

As someone has mentioned don't go to bar in the green, instead go to the bar opposite Williams Green. It was bouncing in there on Thursday about year about 3pm

I've got a crap memory and I'm never going to keep track of these overlapping threads about bars

Hopefully someone will pull it all together for us lazy people!

You may well find me serving you as I'm doing bar work for Shelter this year. If you are recognisable in some way I will try to say hello.

the bar at the top of the hill is excellent. feels like a reward for everyone who has climbed up there. I was first to be served at 11:00am on the Thursday last year. Then shortly afterwards a guy proposed to his girl and everyone cheered and clapped. Great moment.

The permaculture cafe was serving some homebrew style cider and had a few great people playing, John Fairhurst was on before the fireworks to about 20 people lying on the grass. I imagine I'll stick around there and the glade this Wednesday and Thursday.

Alcohol makes us all do stupid things.

I've been trying to keep tabs on all the bars to go to and I'm just resigned to the fact that it's impossible to get to every recommended bar in the 5 days. Will just have to play it by ear and hopefully stumble (literally) across some lively venues.

[Travis Tee]

Cheers thats great some new bars I have never heard of. I will update my map. Look out for me I will have grown a mini mohawk by then

The Underground Piano Bar would be a perfect place to end up and it is open till dawn.

sounds brave. how many miles walking involved. personally I would make it to bar number 2, have a tired and emotional moment and then working out how the hell I get home to tent. good luck though! I am weak. 

[mark_87]

Anyone fancy making an updated map?..

[Travis Tee]

Here we go, I need more precise locations on some bars, apparently Cornish Arms won't be there this year

[midlifecrisis]

Ah I love a Thursday pub crawl. Don't think they're listed as bars but there were quite a few of those small craft cider bars dotted around last year selling really good cider at all strengths for all levels of drinking abilities! :-)

 

 

[croiz]

Can we all come on this crawl plsthx?

What?!? Where did you hear this?

Just checked the map and there's still a bar showing where it usually is (to the right of the 'i' in the centre, above the words 'LEFT FIELD')

Checked map

The map updating with bar locations is really cool! Appreciate it!!
