About The Apple

The Apple is a Tagvenue Partner. This business has registered with Tagvenue and agreed to our venue partner standards.

The Apple is a cider-focused bar operating from a converted 1930s Dutch barge.

Venue highlights: The two-level layout on the barge creates separate boat and quayside areas for private hires. The bar operates a self-service ordering model that keeps drink flow moving and suits informal gatherings. Outdoor picnic benches and covered tented seating on the cobbles, together with nearby street-food traders, provide straightforward, casual catering options.

Best for: Cider tastings and product launches, informal summer receptions and after-work socials, casual group meet-ups.

Location: Welsh Back is the city's historic quayside and has a cobbled waterfront; a cluster of riverside bars and street-food traders nearby extends options for post-event food and drinks.

What guests say: The Apple offers a wide cider list that includes farmhouse and fruit ciders. Service is friendly and the outdoor benches and covered seating are kept clean and practical during busy periods.
