The Griffin Inn was established in 1730, with present buildings that make up the pub being built over the next 100 years. There is also archaeological evidence that the site was in use before the 1600s and is probably the Inn on the Bristol Road described in late medieval accounts.The name refers to the griffin sitting on the Lansdown Monument, commemorating the Cornish Royalist hero, Sir Bevil Grenville, who died at the Battle of Lansdown on July 5, 1643.At nearly 300 years old, the griffin has never looked so good. It invites you to make yourself at home and enjoy the comfort, quality, and variety that a 21st Century inn can offer to discerning devotees.A new and proud owner, a sympathetic facelift, superb food with about 20 handpicked ales and ciders, a selected wine list, and all the way to en-suite rooms, you will surely find it hard to leave.
