Among the floating delights you have in store are drinking cider at The Apple, dancing at Thekla and eating at Glass Boat.

Perfect for romantic meals or special occasions this restaurant will not disappoint. An evening at the floating restaurant doesn't come cheap, but it's certainly worth the hefty price tag. The food, the service and the views are some of the best you'll find in Bristol. A unique and unforgettable dining experience.

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.

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.

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.

Even odder, there is nothing around it apart from the harbour and empty roads feeding into the flyover system, hardly the place to put a restaurant. So, this place doesn't trade on its location or its looks. One would expect the food to be something special, then. And it does manage to live up to expectations. With a comprehensive menu (impressive given the small space they've got to stuff a kitchen into) you should be able to find something you like. The meat in general is very good, and they do amazing things with chicken. X is worth the less than desirable surroundings When I get here, there were Smarties on offer as an odd sweet appetizer before your meal. Everything here is a bit eccentric; I guess it's to be expected from the people who decided to put a restaurant under an on ramp. Don't let any of it, or the location put you off.

There's a good range of ciders on tap, and especially on a summer's day, it's a perfect palce to sit down by the water and sup on a cider, and they've got a large outdoor seating area to allow you to do so.

I'm talking about a ploughman's, or fish and chips, or my favourite, welsh rarebit (it's not just cheese on toast if it's cooked properly) with the best homemade chips I have ever had. The service was lovely and friendly, even though it was boiling and very busy. The meals at this pub are served with proper chutneys, cheeses and sauces and actually go some way to convincing you that we do actually have national dishes in this country that people might like to eat. Seriously though, try the Welsh rarebit with a side order of chips and a bitter shandy...that's British summer time...you can keep your fruity Pimms Boris! We actually got off to a bad start as when we arrived all of the outside tables were reserved! So it's the hottest day of the year and a pub with lovely food and a beer garden is losing business by reserving most of their outside tables and not letting people sit on them even when they are empty. This is their choice, but a bit of a ridiculous system to be honest. You are actively turning business away for people who aren't there and could show up at a later time. So my suggestion is book a table. And ok so you wish the pub was facing the other way; more toward the river and less towards the road, but now I'm just nit picking.

I've been here several times and I have never been disappointed. I am Lithuanian by heritage, not…read morePolish, but many of the dishes on the menu remind me of my childhood in Toronto growing up in the Polish/Eastern European enclave. I am a slave to pierogies and cannot get enough of them. When I first went to Stacja there was only the shop couple doors down from Stacja that had any sort of Eastern European food. Luckily there has been more shops opening up, but Stacja is still the place to go if you want it cooked right. The ambiance of the restaurant is fairly generic, rather frugal looking, but the food is cooked simply and well. The wait staff are Polish as are the cooking staff, and it reminds me of the food I ate when visiting the Suwalki region of Poland back in the 1988. The cocktails are wunderbar as well. Took some friends here and they couldn't get enough of the Tequila Sunrises. Nor of the fact that there is a pool table in the middle of the restaurant. So whilst digesting all the scrummy food you can hit a few balls. I would recommend this place. The sausages, pierogies, soups, breads, salads, and saurkraut are out of this world.

The Tunnels is an exciting new 360 capacity venue with an enviably unique location. Occupying two…read moregrade one listed railway arches, designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunnel, and tucked neatly beneath Bristol Temple Meads central railway station, The Tunnels must be Bristol's most easily accessed nightspot. Not only is it serviced by comprehensive bus and rail transport, almost to the door, there is also, unusually for Bristol, a wealth of free parking immediately in front of the venue, all under the watchful eye of The Tunnels security team. And there can't be too many venues that can boast about having a taxi rank on their roof! Opened in October 2009 this venture has been conceived and realised in the peak of a global recession, showing that creator Gareth Chilcott has the courage to match his ambitions. It's perhaps not surprising considering the achievements of this Bristol-born iconic personality. Sporting his trademark headband, Chilcott, better known as Cooch, made over 400 first team appearances for Bath RFC and was capped for England 22 times between 1984 and 1990. The sweatband that protected Cooch from the telltale condition 'cauliflower ear' throughout his rugby career enjoyed a new incarnation after he hung up his boots and launched Headband Ltd, a hospitality company providing mobile bars to prestigious events around the country. Now considered to be a leading international rugby pundit, Cooch regularly makes celebrity guest appearances, and has graced the stage in a number of regional theatre productions. Resisting the temptation to trade on his name, Cooch branded the venue and launched it without so much as a nod to his former achievements. Caution was inspired by the wholesale media pounding of Mama Stones in Exeter, after Wendy Joseph, (mother of Joss Stone), bought and rebranded The Hub, reopening it as a music venue back in the summer of 2009. This has been a smart move in more ways than one. The Tunnels is the right name for this underground, discretely hidden venue. After visiting it, it is hard to imagine that it could be called anything else. A small doorway, no more than an illuminated dot on a manmade cliff face of blackened rock, is all that betrays the existence of life. The soundproofing is immaculate. Emerging from the dusky car park, lit only by the ambient glow of distant streetlights, the full impact of the scale and industrial grandeur of this rather splendid space hits you with full impact as you step across the threshold. Partially clad in corrugated sheet metal, that gives way to large areas of exposed brickwork, it's clear that the interior has been designed to follow the sweeping lines of the superstructure, a decision that was probably heavily influenced by the ceaselessly stringent stipulations of the Heritage Planning Department, but is one that allows for an optimal use of the space. The layout is intelligent. Although conforming to predetermined dimensions, this is a venue that is custom made for the purpose of delivering quality music to large numbers of people. The first arch, which houses the bar and sprawling lounge, with toilets and smoking area to the rear, has dual access to the performance area running parallel to it. The stage occupies a sizeable portion of the far end of the second arch, allowing the audience to filter, with minimum disturbance, from the side. Disabled access is garnered via a door leading directly from the car park, adjacent to the main entrance. The fact that this leads to a viewing platform that elevates wheelchair bound patrons to a position where they can enjoy great views of the stage is indicative of the thought and consideration that has gone into mapping out the space. This venue is being operated with seeming consummate ease, without a trace of evidence pointing to the problematical process that brought it into being. Cooch had been searching for the right opportunity to put down some roots for several years, but initial attempts to secure a property of the correct proportions were thwarted by costly surveying procedures that resulted in disappointment. "I've always wanted a music venue" he confided, "I looked at the Fleece a couple of years ago, and didn't buy it because of structural problems... And then, after a lot of searching, two derelict arches came up, with a lot of rain, a lot of rats, a lot of dirt and hard work, and, of course, it's a listed building, and so as soon as you touch that you've got to get everything passed by Heritage... But in the end it was worth it. It's a bit quirky. It's a bit different. The acoustics are great, and the bands like playing here. It works." There's no denying that Cooch is right, The Tunnels definitely works, but the timing of the development, with the backdrop of global recession, could hardly be considered ideal. Ever the professional, Cooch takes a philosophical stance... read full review on my blog: http://www.travelpod.com/members/biglove
