The Jacobs Well Theatre was a playhouse in Cliftonwood, Bristol, England, which opened in 1729.

It took its name from the nearby Jacobs's Well, which may have been a mikveh, a type of Jewish ritual bath.

[2] A hole was knocked through a party wall to an adjacent ale house, The Malt Shovel, so that actors, and audience seated on the stage, could obtain refreshments.

Servants of patrons were admitted free of charge to an upper gallery.

[6] Notable actors who appeared at the theatre included Charles Macklin, William Powell, and Thomas King, who were all stars of the Georgian stage.
