    Hurrah they finally have new toilets! Although it does feel slightly more like a corporate chain now, rather than a messy, bohemian, creative, manic coffee spot for the members of the revolution. This is a chain with a winning formula and I think this is one of the first branches (?) to get it just right. It seems like the benchmark against which all other Boston Tea Party's are measured. This Boston Tea Party certainly has the most liberal, free-spirited feel of them all. Compared to these chains Starbucks feels really soulless, like having a coffee with Bill Gates instead of David Bowie. I have uploaded a photo of their message wall, where local independent businesses can stick up any ads they like. I saw one today for a life drawing class for £5!? Bargain. But do they supply an easel and paper? This wall encapsulates this coffee chain as a business. It's got a real community feel; it's very diverse, arty and creative but also manic and sometimes a bit too much. For example if you eat, don't expect to have your plates cleared before you leave. I don't think this is the fault of the staff, there just never seems to be enough of them and it is a very popular coffee shop. Although not quite the standard of coffee you might find in Milan (but where is in Bristol!?) I think they do my favourite cappuccinos in town: The perfect amount of milk (not too much), very strong and very tasty. It's nicer to sit upstairs here than anywhere else, even in the summer, as although they do have a very unique and interesting garden with a lot of seats, you won't be sat in the sun too long as it's blocked out by the tall surrounding buildings.

    Chorizo hash

    Amazing place for coffee and brunch! The food here was amazing (tried the chorizo hash and the sweet corn hash). So tasty, fresh, and affordable. Service was friendly and attentive and the food came out of the kitchen quickly. The drip coffee tasted excellent and gave me lots of pep for the day. Loads up seating upstairs and would love to check out the back patio when it's warmer out. I will definitely be coming back here!

    Boston Tea Party's are popping up everywhere these days. In fact I saw one in Bath the other day which surprised me as I assumed they were still only Bristol based. It is easy to see why they have done so well for themselves. It definitely has the air of individuality about it which seems to be lacking in most other coffee shops. This particular one is located midway up Park Street making it perfect for a quick lunch stop en-route to the top of the hill. Their menu is ever changing, but they consistently keep prices reasonable which I definitely approve of. Their jacket potatoes are divine, so light and fluffy with just the right crispy skin, and with pretty much any filling you can think of. Check out their white chocolate hot chocolate, it's amazing! Be warned, there isn't much seating at all and more often than not you will have to wait at least 5 minutes for someone to leave. There is a nice area with a couple of sofas which is nice to sit down on if they are miraculously free.

    Scotch Pancakes with seasonal compote and Greek yoghurt

    I went there for a nice brunch after a long walk. Amazing place and lovely tasty food! I took the Scotch Pancakes with Greek yoghurt and seasonal compote and was AMAZING. The pictures will explain what I am saying. My friend choose Eggs Florentine and that dish was delicious too (I've eaten it a little bit as well...just to write an authentic review of course!) Price not super cheap but definetily worth a visit!

The other dish was a New York steak ciabatta (with amazing chips). We ordered wine and washed the tasty meal down before following it up with sticky toffee pudding and a decidedly evil peanut butter cheesecake (which comes in a glass). We like it here. It's grand and light, and the food is good and reasonably priced. What would we change? We would upgrade the condiments, so that the ketchup is better, and that authentic maple syrup is used on our pancakes rather than golden syrup, which is thick and doesn't taste of much. We would also have preferred our meals a bit hotter, as we felt like we had to wolf it down before it got cold. But these are small niggles that can be easily fixed, and probably will be at some point if the professionalism of the staff is anything to go by. They're friendly, not over-familiar, not too pushy, and they seem to want to go out of their way to make sure you enjoy Cosy Club. The wine list is short, but will hopefully improve in time. As of writing, it's only been open a couple of weeks. I look forward to being able to buy Champagne by the glass!

After walking around for 20-30 mins and getting a few rejections we found Graze, which from the outside looks way to modern for my taste. But the closer we got the better we liked it (it has a statuette of a bull on top of the door - love it!!!) Anyways we got charcuterie as a starter with Aperol Spritz, which was delicious - really good meat! And nicely served! As a main cause we got a chicken roast and lamb chops, and a bottle of wine, they had a great wine card by the way! We both wanted to finish - but that wasn't possible - cause we also need room for a little dessert! It was a good evening! The service was really good, We loved the food, and the interior was very non British! (Win!) ;) I would have loved to try a Sunday roast at Graze! Next time for sure!

    We came here following a recommendation from a friend who lives in Bristol. We went for a late…read morelunch after my husband's interview so wanted to celebrate it being over and enjoy some time together. This place was perfect. Because it was about 3pm by the time we got there, it was pretty quiet (only two other customers) but we quite liked that and despite being worried they might not be serving food since it was between lunch and dinner (and Valentines day which they were clearly getting ready for that evening) we were warmly welcomed and told we could sit anywhere. The whole place smelled like leather which I suppose might be off putting for some but I loved it. It was nice and bright with leather seating (hence the smell) and smart decor. We were brought a lunch menu as well as the a la carte and drinks. I decided to have a cocktail since we were officially on holiday now the interview was over ;) The cucumber collins (£6.50) was delicious! We also shared a 500ml carafe of pinot noir (£12) which was lovely. We ordered bread & olives (£3.50) to start which were very nice, I liked the addition of thyme to the butter. For our mains, Nik chose the burger which was tasty but a bit dry and could have had a bit more seasoning. The chips were fantastic! I opted for the duck leg confit with dauphinoise (£11.95) which was definitely the best choice - SO delicious and melt in the mouth duck with crispy skin. The jus was very tasty too and great for dipping Nik's chips! ;) I was surprised that Nik's burger cost more than my duck which was a decent size and mine definitely seemed better quality. £12.95 for a burger is pretty pricey too! When mine came I decided I needed some veg with it so ordered the winter greens which came quickly and smothered in butter. A bit too much really as I actually love kale & savoy cabbage (which is what came) and it was literally dripping in butter which wasn't needed and so not quite as healthy as expected but I enjoyed it all the same. Although, again it was quite expensive at £3.50 for a small bowl of cabbage. Considering how quiet the restaurant was (a few more customers had come in for drinks by the time we finished but no other diners), we had to sit with our empty plates for a VERY long time as the waitress was busy lighting candles and setting tables for dinner. She did seem to be the only member of staff at this point but we were ignored for a bit too long. Service was friendly throughout though and we soon got the bill and were thanked as we left. The toilets were clean and again, nicely decorated with nice touches like the lovely smelling White Company soap & hand lotion. We'd probably go back for another visit next time we're in Bristol.

I told them I didn't enjoy it and they didn't ask any follow up questions and asked if we wanted to see deserts. I told them I wasn't happy to pay full price. It was also supposed to be unlimited gravy but nobody came over to check on us. I told them I get nervous complaining as I suffer with social anxiety but it was that bad I had to say something. I felt because we weren't dressed up that they looked down on us and if we had been more "socially presentable" they would have given us a refund. I was very upset and felt the staff were uncaring and just rude. To add to this, I have seen that another person reviewed them on Google, who also said their potatoes were stale and the botanist manager Kyle responded that if they had said something they would have had a refund. How is it fair to refund someone but not someone else? Furthermore, I feel they are trying to save face by stating they would give a refund but I felt I had to fight even to get 20% off which I should have received anyway as I had a Mitchell and butler's family and friends discount as my friend works for one of their restaurants. Their system wasn't working to receive the discount from the drinks which it should have.. If they had just given me a refund and what was fair, I wouldn't have complained here and just let it go. I worry about food being bad and getting sick. It ruined our evening because I ended up crying because I felt such injustice especially considering I have worked in many customer facing jobs and have always cared for all customers.​

My partner ordered a steak cooked on a hot stone tablet right in front of him - similar to the way you can get hot plates in Indian restaurants, except this actually allowed him to partially cook the steak himself. As an occasional vegetarian there wasn't a great amount of choice for me to pick a main course but the starters and desserts were divine! It is quite pricey but I would come back for the chocolate mouse alone and my partner can whole-heartedly vote for the sirloin steak!
