    Cosies Wine Bar has a few different faces. It's located in stateley Portland Square, and during the…read moreday it maintains a quite respectable face. At this time it pulls in office workers and other up-standing member of society sorts. They have a good lunch menu, and the place could pass as a reasonably high end restaurant. Things degenerate (or improve, depending on your point of view) as night draws in. Cosies is also a night club and dubstep, afrobeat, and hip-hop nights, along with various others. Very cool in the evenings, this is about a million miles from Syndicate et al. not so far away in the centre. The different between the its night and day time faces is quite a contrast and makes Cosies worth two visits. Down in a basement, it has a cosy feel to match its name. The best time to vist in the day time is when its a bit cold and damp. During the evening just make sure to get there early to avoid disappointment.

    There seem to be a few places around Bristol that have a bit of a cavey feeling, due to their…read morebasement locations. Cosies is another place to the trend, situated in the basement of one of the grand Georgian houses in St Pauls' Portland Square. It's open all day and night, catering to the office workers of the square in the daytime, and turning into one of Bristol's in-the-know clubs as night falls. Some of the best djs can be found playing here, spanning genres from Dub and Reggae to Drum'n'Bass and hip hop. The seats outside, carved out beneath the pavement, are maybe where the place gets its name from, as there's a really great 'cosy' atmosphere in one of those seating hubs. As a result, it makes for quite a smokers paradise, and there's definitely a hint of a few blind eyes being turned. Walking past in the day there's always a board offering some sort of exotic food (always below a fiver, so good value), proving a real temptation to descend the rickety stairs mid-afternoon. Also, there's late evening grub on offer to help the pints go down, the last time I was there goat curry was being sold around 11. You might have to pay a few pounds to get in on a weekend, but I'd safely guarantee you'll have a night worth remembering.

    This place was/is PHENOMENAL! We've heard about this place -- in Hereford of all places!! -- from…read moreour friends back stateside and those who have visited Hereford, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Bunch of Carrots is a classic & traditional English pub serving great food and meals between £7-£11/person. To start with: I had a Mortimr's Cider which was fantastic! The cider is the offers a sweetness from the apple, but not too sweet. For the entree, I had the "Carving Selection" which is an offering of fresh meats and roasts along with various sides. Today (1/05/16) they served roasted pork, veal, and beef along with traditional pudding, sausage, stuffing, potatoes, gravy, cheddar & broccoli, and so much more! All of the food was delicious and so flavorful!! While the food was great, what separates this place is the atmosphere! It's in a quaint old building full of character and charm. Everything in the building - the tables, the art, the ceilings - all contribute to the experience and take you back in time. If you're ever in the area, you have to stop by and check this place out!

    The bunch of carrots is best known for the carvery that it does every day of the week and as…read morecarvery's go, it's not a bad one. They do other maels as well and if one of you is having a carvery and the other person something else then they come to tell when the other meal is about to come out so that you are able to eat at the same time. It has a car park next to the pub which can sometimes can get full. They also have some seats in the garden.The food is all of good quality and reasonabally priced
