Good Luck to The Settle Inn!

Karen Osborne • August 7, 2025

The Portishead Community is delighted to welcome a new business to the High Street.

The Settle Inn is a Micro Pub, offering a range of real ales, as well as a wide selection of other drinks.


Industrial Modern Furniture was approached by Ed, the Owner of this exciting new venue, to discuss making a new bar and bespoke furniture.


Ed wanted a unique, industrial feel for this bar, and John was the right person to help!

For weeks, John created a fantastic range to meet the brief, including a bar, fixed bar tables, and stunning display shelving.


The overall result looks amazing with lots of other features, including rustic wooden flooring, blackboards and beer taps.


The bar is located at 46 High St, Portishead, Bristol BS20 6EL. The opening hours are noon until 10 pm on Friday and Saturday, and noon until 4 pm on Sundays.


Please call in for a drink and a snack and support this exciting new venture!

At Industrial Modern Furniture, we believe that furniture shouldn’t just be functional—it should be a statement. It’s about the raw beauty of grain, the industrial strength of steel, and the craftsmanship that brings them together.

Beautifully idyllic, this Old English Country Home had all the charm in the world—but it needed a bespoke solution to solve a very British problem. With the staggering amount of rain we’ve seen this year, the owners desperately needed a way to deter the relentless weather from beating against their front door.

This Bespoke drinks cabinet started as a Rustic Slate Effect Ceramic Tile! The hues of brown and grey slate inspired John to combine different media and engineer a unique design of a cabinet. This design highlights the shades of colour in wood, solid steel and steel features.

If you are a dog owner, the safety of your beloved pet is of the utmost importance. Therefore, when our customer requested a home consultation, we visited to measure up and chat through designs. Often our homes have driveways and open plan entrances to gardens, which of course, aren’t safe spaces for the family pooch to play and roam freely. After a good look at the criteria that needed to be met, we etched out designs that met the 'Fleur-de-lis' design brief! Some customers love an ornate look and others a more modern design, anything is possible, and the best part of the service, as seen in these photos, is we can quote to supply only or install efficiently. If you know John, you'll know 'precision ' is his middle name! So it won't surprise you that when a magnetic spirit level is required for accuracy, and planting of steel posts quickly, precision is achieved! John will install the zinc primed and powder-coated posts to allow time for them to set and cure in the concrete, before tarmac is relaid if such a finish is required. He has a solution for all surfaces; patios, paving or tarmac can all be catered for, so if you have a vision, don't hesitate to ask how to go about it.
