    Jon B.

    This cafe opened last summer, and is doing a roaring trade. It's swish, and fits in well with this area on Whiteladies Road. If you're into your coffee and cake, this is the place to come. There's cake a plenty displayed tantalisingly in a cabinet in one corner of the room. The cafe is fronted with a massive window, so it's quite light and airy, and the seating is all low slung and comfy, with chunky low wood tables. The walls are painted in deep red which gives it quite a warm feeling despite the brightness of the place, which is really nice around this time of year. Add in reasonable prices and friendly staff and you've got an excellent all round cafe.

Flinty Red will survive though, I think. Corks of Cotham, the nearby independent wine merchants (also well worth a visit) are behind this restaurant, with the focus being on getting the perfect bottle to complement your meal. They're passionate about wine here and will take the time and effort to make sure you get something you're happy with. The food's French and Spanish influeced and very much made to match the wine list (which with 100 choices really is comprehensive). The food is well sourced, with plenty of care and attention put in. Whilst you might end up spending a pretty penny of wine the food is reasonably priced, which means you can feel a bit less guilty for spending so much on drink. Not to busy at the moment, but still a decent atmosphere. Head here especially if you're a wine afficienado, but even if you're not.

Our dinner itself was brilliant, yet not overly expensive, and my starters consisting of sliced duck meat was exquisite, very tasty. I succombed to a "moules-frites" main course, and while the mussels were well cooked and tasty, I have to say that the chips were not truly the french fries you'd get in Brussels, the mussel haven... Anyway, the home-made mayo and tartare sauces were great, and aside from the surprise of seeing my colleague getting served her ordered of a bread platter (I'd never seen that, ever before), the night was a great one. Today I finished my other colleague's spaghetti, which we took away at the end, and they reminded me "Go back to Bristol !"

Downstairs is a cafe/bar and delicatessen and up stairs is the restaurant. I've never actually eaten in the main restaurant as the food served in cafe is of a very high standard and there is always a great selection that changes frequently. The Deli also sells a lovely selection of fresh bread, cheese, cakes and other great food. It's a great place to buy gifts or create a food hamper. Today I went for a tart with celeriac remoulade. I can't remember what the tart was called but it was delicious. My mum had the fish and chips and which is a Bordeaux quay fav for her and it didn't disappoint!

We were seated in the bar area and I opted for what I thought was a glass of champagne but it turned out to be a champagne cocktail 'the classic'. Wasn't to my taste! But my mistake. They have no draft beers, but some bottled and a good selection of bottled ciders. We were then seated at a big round table - too big in my opinion cos I felt I needed to shout to everyone on it! The menu looked amazing. As French as you could possibly get so I was in heaven. The waitress then came over and told us half of it they didn't have! Bit naughty not to mention it on the website cos there was a lot missing. I chose the steak tartare to start, It was delicious! Fillet steak minced with pickles and mustard through it, it was quite fiery actually, I think there was quite a bit of Tabasco in it too but it really enhanced the dish. Wasn't sure about the raw egg yolk served on top but I was pleasantly surprised. I opted for a bottle of the Pinot noir which was nice and subtle, the more expensive of the wines at 30ish quid. But that was at the top of the price range on the wine list so quite reasonable really for all the wines ( it helped I wasn't paying too! ). For the main I went for the sirloin steak, served with fries and the best pepper sauce I have EVER tasted. Yes The Yeoman - it beat yours! (can't believe I just said that). I asked for it to be cooked rare but it was slightly overdone. Usually I would have sent it back but it was so tasty I didn't actually need to. Everyone else was thoroughly enjoying theirs too. For pudding I shared a cheese board and again was transported through those pearly white gates. The cheese's where magnific! Melt in your mouth blue, Brie to die for, a lovely smoked one which I thought I wouldn't like. Yum. Yum. YUM! My friends chose the baked Alaska which was flambé'd at the table, it looked amazeballs. We all left stuffed and giddy. It was a real treat, I highly recommend for a extremely pleasant evening out. Thankyou Jane and Keith!

However, don't let that put you off. Whilst it does have a full lunch and dinner menu breakfast/brunch is probably what it does best. On weekend mornings, you'll see it chock-a-block with people having smoked salmon bagels and cappuccinos, and this is the best time to visit. The evening meals are delicious though. The place is candle lit in the evenings too, transforming making for a quite intimate experience. This really has got the fundamentals of a good restaurant exactly right. The service is as sharp as anywhere else I've been recently, and you can see that plenty of attention has been given to the interior design. All the food I've had has been delicious. Having gushed about it I should warn that it's certainly not cheap, which is unsurprising given the location (Clifton Village) and probably explains the clientèle. An evening meal for five tops out at over a hundred pounds - this is somewhere for special occasions, or just when you're feeling rich. A piece of toast and a coffee won't cost that much though, so go for breakfast if you haven't got a spare fifty quid lying around in your wallet. Certainly don't pass it up completely just because of the prices, it's a delightful place that's should be on the list of places to go of anyone visiting in Bristol.

Each room inside the hotel do not have room numbers but are called champagne where this room being the best from all other rooms is called Veuve Clicquot. This is duplex suite with a Very large King size bed featuring a stunning Veuve Clicquot, back-lit display headboard. Intimately designed in rich earthy tones with a separate lounge area and 42 inch plasma TV. Upstairs in the bathroom you'll find twin roll top baths and a walk-in monsoon shower. I admit the rooms may be slightly pricey but the luxury of this suite is worth every penny! As the complimentary toiletries smell lovely, there are Egyptian Cotton sheets on the bed, the monsoon walk-in shower is so refreshing, I've never felt so clean in my life! Once a year we travel over here but not to visit Bristol town centre but to this hotel as this is one of my favourites! We always have issues with parking but there is off street parking available!
