Don't miss out on a great thing. All the way around. You name it and they have mastered it. They love their customers and it shows.

They had great wait staff and c onsidtent food. I stopped going there. I ordered a special. It was a Philly cheese steak. It was terrible. One bad meal did not stop me. I had 3 events with the wait staff. I ate. I finished my meal. The restuarant was basically empty. I waited for the waitresses then gave up. I still had to pay. So on stood up. Nothing. I put on my coat. Nothing. I took out my wallet. I had one waitress walk by and asked if I needed anything else. This happened 3 times in a row. read more

The food and service were both outstanding! Very quaint restaurant with a lot of character. We will definitely go back when we are in town.

We are back again, and at first, I was disappointed to see that we were here too early for dinner. However, our wonderful server, Samarah, asked the chef if we could still get the Champagne pork medallions dinner, and the chef made it for us! It a so amazing!! We ordered the fried green tomatoes for an appetizer,and they were delicious as well! My tastebuds are so happy! read more

Everything was delicious! We started with the pickle appetizer! The country ham with pimento cheese on toast was my favorite! Hubby ordered the spaghetti. He really liked it. I had the BEST beet salad EVER! Haley was out server and talked to us about her home and how she loved living there! She was so sweet! Thank you, Bistro on 6th for a great dinner and experience! read more

What a great little place. Tucked away on an historic side street in an old building. Fabulous food. Not just your everyday find. Went for lunch and will definitely be back for dinner. Very nice casual atmosphere definitely includes the people. Service was friendly and not rushed. read more

We were visiting family in the Bristol area and decided to give bistro on 6th street a try for lunch. I didn't take photos of the appetizer or meals but provided one of the dessert. For the appetizer we had the fried green tomatoes with the pimento on the side. My spouse had the bacon guacamole cheese sandwich and French fries which ended up being made incorrectly, they put ham on the sandwich and forgot the bacon. To remedy it they offered to re-make the sandwich. My spouse said no need just bring some bacon and that will resolve the issue. I had the cashew salad with grilled shrimp and citrus vinaigrette dressing. The only downside about this meal was the excess amount of cashews on the salad. It feels like they poured over a cup of cashews on top. Otherwise it was very good. We shared a small skilled that contained a Nutella cookie with vanilla ice cream on top. It was good, hot and very rich. I would return and try other items. read more

I'm so happy a place like this exists in Bristol. I didn't want to out myself but I'm a transplant and since moving to the tri cities area I've really missed having restaurant/food options. Bistro on 6th has a great variety and delish food. read more

While headed to the airport we wanted to eat something besides airport food so we stopped here. The pickle board is a MUST! It was probably the best thing I ate while in the area. Our server was very attentive and it was super cute inside! I am already trying to figure out why i need to go back so I can go there again! read more

Food was outstanding! We had the fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese, it was aaahmazing! I had the mushroom risotto which was very tasty with the fried leeks on top, yum! My husband had the chicken and waffles just the right amount of heat tender chicken and fluffy and crisp waffle. Home fun of a meal! Our server Emma was new only 4 days but very sweet and personable. Not afraid of saying I don't know but let me ask! If we're in this area again we'd def check in here again, too many choices on the menu that sounded fabulous! read more

We were celebrating our anniversary and came for dinner. The Champagne pork was amazing. I loved all their Chardonnay options. The Ribeye was ok but I've had better. All in all, such a quaint little place and Inwould definitely come back. read more

Horrendous. It was a mistake to go in there. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich with bacon and no fries. The bread was dried out and one puny piece of junk American cheese, ( didn't even reach edge to edge), and two tiny pieces of bacon. Of course it came with the fries I specifically didn't want. The blood orange margarita was made with some chemical mix and I think all they did was wave the tequila bottle over the glass to capture some fumes. read more

A first visit for my wife and me. And so happy we chose Bistro on 6th. We had a delightful meal. Our two appetizers--pickle board and the crispy chili brussel sprouts--were both fabulous. Our main course selections--roasted beet salad with chicken, and bistro fish and chips--were both very good. The wine list could have been a bit broader, but was fine. The service was friendly and while it was Friday night busy, never seemed harried. A very nice experience and a good value for the money. We look forward to coming back again and again. Thank you, Bistro on 6th, for a very nice evening. read more

Tasty burger, good cheese, as another reviewer said. Worth the price? No, I found it really expensive for what it was, BUT I'd prefer to over-spend and enjoy than spend $5 for a hamburger I didn't enjoy. Thanks! read more

Known chef and interesting menu. Everything we ordered was delicious. But the evening was spoiled by poor service. Our server was very friendly but slow. She presented the bill before everyone had even finished eating their main course, and brought the desserts so late that the ice cream on the fried cheesecake had melted almost completely. read more

Bistro on 6th has tasty and delectable dishes for their customers to order. While dining in their beautifully designed restaurant, the menu has a great selection to choose from. Whether it be a fried green tomato BLT or chicken and waffles, Bistro on the 6th will provide their customers with great food, great service from Kelly, and a great ambiance.

Really enjoyed my experience at Bistro on 6th! I found this place strolling on Yelp and was immediately excited to try it out. Turns out I was pleasantly surprised and Bistro on 6th exceeded my expectations! I came in on a Tuesday night, it was pretty quiet but Bristol is a quaint little town with not too many restaurants so I didn't think anything of it. All I was trying to figure out is if I was going to order the Champagne Pork, Steak & Potatoes, Shrimp & Grits or the Bistro Burger. When I sat down I was greeted by Tracey who was so lovely and helpful! She told me the pork was her go to and I had to try it! The pork was tender and accompanied by an out of this work champagne cream sauce with onions. The pork was over mashed potatoes and green beans. My only caveat is I wish there were more green beans with my meal bc I love my greens. The pork and mashed potato portion was perfect and left me stuffed! Even though I was stuffed I needed to take something sweet to have back in my hotel room and decided to go with their dessert special of the evening a chocolate ganache Carmel pie. Let me tell you...this was DELICIOUS! I will be dreaming about this pie. If you don't have room bring it home with you; you won't be disappointed. I also had the opportunity to meet the owner and he was the sweetest, very friendly! I loved every bite of this meal and would recommend to anyone! I cannot wait for my next visit to Bristol to try another menu item. If you haven't been here and your from Bristol or from the surrounding areas or just visiting for work like me; do yourself a favor and dine at this lovely establishment! read more

Awesome service. But...the fried fish was just fried dough with a tiny bit of tough fish in the middle. The beet app was 4 small sliced beets and some cheese for 14. Pretty pricey to leave hungry and not totally happy with the meal. Me and my 12 year old son spent 80$ after tip for the two of us read more

Very calm and kicked back atmosphere. Wait staff was amazing, very friendly and welcoming; Emily & (I didn't catch the other waitress name, young blonde woman) - attentive and talkative, definitely livened the place up, made me want to come back from just their personalities alone. Food was also very good. The Cajun sauce on the shrimp and grits really sets it off. Fried green tomatoes hit the spot, a little heavy on the pimento cheese in some spots, but nothing you can't knock off when you see it. Also, the bourbon pecan pie was outstanding. If it's on the menu when you stop by, you absolutely HAVE to try it. Definitely stopping by the place every time work has me out this way. Delicious read more

I used to love this restaurant. Everything was fresh and delicious until today. I haven't been in months. I took my daughter and grandson for lunch. Service was great. The food on the other hand was not good. I asked my daughter if they changed ownership or got a new cook? This is so disappointing as it is one my favorite places to eat and take family to, but I guess I will have to find another restaurant. read more

The Bistro is very charming, and the food and beverages are really great. There really are not too many places for a foodie to go in Bristol that are not chain restaurants or BBQ joints and Bistro on 6th is a delightful find for anyone who appreciates higher quality food in a street side cafe setting. My lunch was really great and so was my friend's we were there to celebrate the close of escrow. Friendly service, I mean extra friendly, but let me tell you about Lydia's Apple Bourbon Crumble Oh my goodness that was unbelievable! So delicious!! Served in a little iron skillet hot with or without ice cream it's got pecans and apples the perfect amount of spices it's perfection. If it's on the menu and you don't try it, well that's on you. read more

If you're looking at the long of restaurants in Bristol and don't know where to go, stop the search! The food was delicious and the atmosphere just right. Not loud or pretentious. The service was very personable and efficient, too. My hubby and I both had the chicken salad - he with orzo salad (which might have had too much dressing but was reallllly good dressing) and I had mine with fries. That chicken salad might have been plain, but it was the best I'd ever had! Tasty plain. Like it didn't need a lot of additions. I don't know how they made it but I'll be trying to perfect it in the months to come! We were there for lunch and it started off a few tables were taken - and by the time we left, every table was taken! They have a good thing going at this place. We would definitely be back often if we lived nearby. Glad we stumbled upon it as we visited Bristol and Abingdon!! read more

Fantastic drinks, food, and service. Can't wait to go again and highly recommend. Smaller place so I would def call ahead of time and make reservations. read more

Nice little place in walkable downtown. Service was courteous and the food was good. Salad was decent with nice homemade dressing choices and I ordered the risotto and added the steak. Risotto tasted amazing and was great with steak but they only bring it with 4oz portion of steak. For the overall price, I felt it should've been better than that. I was still hungry for more! It's ok, I went to Blackbird Bakery afterwards. read more

Red pepper soup, broccoli, and fries were so salty they were inedible. We had cod and chips, beet salad, and their filet/cajun shrimp special. Filet was ordered medium and then served rare and cold with butter topping not even melting. Waitress was great and had it reheated to again medium rare but hot and butter melting properly. Was delicious after these issues. The Fish and chips cod was very, very good. They comped the soup which was appreciated and may be a reason to go back. Overall for $111 for two and a poor overall experience, I would not return. Waitress and staff were great. Food was just not up to even a chain fast casual place like Cheddar's, Texas Steakhouse, etc. for 2 to 3 times the price. read more

At lunch here on 9/11/25. Waiter was nice. We got complimentary waters. That's nice. But the bad was we was told just about everything was freshly made. We was served cold mashed potatoes that were reheated. Needless to say they were not heated enough. My burger was half raw. And the soup they served my 70 year old mother made her sick. The reason we chose this restaurant was because I seen nice pictures on Google. Needless to say they didn't even have those plates on the menu. The owner might want to get things straight or this place won't have the reputation is has had in the past. read more

Nestled on a cute street in downtown Bristol, this place really embodies the warm southern hospitality bistro feel with very attentive and friendly service, thoughtful and well executed dishes, and decent drinks. The brown butter tomato pasta had an extra layer of flavor from the butter, the fried green tomatoes were crispy with sweet and savory elements, the chicken and waffles included perfectly cooked chicken and a sweet and spicy sauce, the fries were crispy and perfect, and the elder fashioned was a nice surprise as I've never had an elderflower flavored old fashioned before. Hands down one of the best if not the best restaurant in Bristol. read more

Stopped in for lunch, and was so glad I did. The cool vibe and friendly service was exactly what I needed after a hectic week. The roasted beet salad was awesome! Huge portion, I added shrimp and was surprised to get SIX deliciously grilled shrimp. The quality ingredients and house made citrus vinaigrette were perfectly complimented by a glass of Chardonnay. I will be back! read more

My friend and I tried Bistro on 6th in Bristol for the first time. We were blown away! We started with the manchego cheese skillet appetizer and it was some of the best cheese I've ever had. Next, we had the roasted red pepper tomato basil soup. Another winner. For our entrée, we split a Cuban sandwich with fries. Everything is sourced locally, the decor is super cute and the service is outstanding. Overall, a great experience. Can't wait to try them for dinner. read more

WOW! This place is a gem! Kylee our server was great! They do not have a wine list, so bring your own for a $5 corkage fee! We started the evening with a pickle plate ($10) which was fantastic. Pickled carrots, green beans, cauliflower, garlic and okra served with house made naan, mustard, candied pecans, sliced apple and a compound butter. Outstanding!!!! For entrees, I had the Champaign Pork which was deliciously tender with a mustard sauce over mashed potatoes and Schweety and a special of the day, braised short ribs which were also fall apart tender! Dessert had already sold out! Small place, big flavor. WOW! read more

Small and quiet spot, right off the main downtown area, perfect to grab a flavorful dinner. Food came out quickly, hot, accurate, and with a nice presentation. Menu has just enough options. Apps, lights, sandwiches, dinner mains, and daily specials. Staff is great, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. Place is small enough that the manager/owner is still hands on, walking the floor and touching tables while the other chef/owner is cranking out quality plates. Decent beer selection and you can BYO wine with a $5 corking fee. Place has a good vibes, cute decor, clean. Love the lights outside. Will return. Use the reservation option during weekend dinner hours. read more
