Bruhaha — Neighbourhood Pub, Nano Brewery & Social Space in Bristol

Bruhaha is a neighbourhood pub and nano brewery on Wells Road in Totterdown, Bristol. It occupies what was once a retail building now serving as a creative hub for locals. The venue runs an on-site brewery under Windmill Hill City Farm, offering craft beer, cider, wines, and spirits from independent makers. Its standout item is Frankie's Fried Chicken + Waffles (Gluten Free). People come here in the evenings to enjoy drinks and food during events or simply to relax. The setting reflects Totterdown’s industrial character with exposed brick walls and dim lighting that suits live music and art exhibitions.

About The Venue

Bruhaha opened in 2023 after transforming a former retail space into a community-focused venue in Totterdown, Bristol. At its heart is an on-site nano brewery located underneath the bar, part of Windmill Hill City Farm’s sustainable brewing model. The building has three levels and features exposed brick interiors and industrial decor, matching the local architectural style. Lighting is kept dim to enhance events like live music and art shows downstairs. Noise stays high due to DJs, regular performances, and crowds on weekends, especially in the evenings. This energetic scene makes Bruhaha a social spot for creative people who want drinks and food with a purpose.

Typical Experiences

Bruhaha is set up for everyday use, people come here during weekdays for casual drinks or join events that fill the space at night. Locals and visitors expect lively, artistic environments where they can try craft beer, cider, wines, spirits, and food such as Frankie's Fried Chicken + Waffles (Gluten Free), a dish from a chef with MasterChef experience. The three-level layout offers different vibes, quiet seating upstairs or a packed scene downstairs near the on-site brewery under the bar. This setup makes Bruhaha a go-to for weekend events, but also fits into regular social routines in Totterdown.
