If you're looking for an unadulterated grease binge, this is the place to go. And if you like…read morechicken, then you can't go far wrong. Boasting a range of calorific meal deals at very affordable prices, this place could well be the death of you if you suffer from grease compulsions and live in the area. Especially since they operate a home delivery service too - you needn't ever leave your house! For those of you with healthier intentions, I was surprised to find that the breakfast menu included a more hearts 'n flowers approach, with options such as muesli with yogurt and honey and variously filled pancakes.

Excellent spot to bring a night in Bristol to an end. My favorite is the meat feast pizza, and…read moreMonday-Thursday they offer free potato wedges with a 12" pizza (totaling in £5). Great greasy food, good prices and friendly staff. Considering the style of food (greasy delicious chippy grub) and the hours in operation (was just in at half two am!), 5 stars! It's my favorite chippy in Bristol. :)

Vien's Palace is one of mixed opinion for me…read more It's a fairly small place on a not hugely attractive stretch of road. It smells a bit funny and there's always a slightly dodgy vibe about the place. Sometimes I have been here and picked up some really delicious food. Their prawn crackers, for instance, are delicious but there's nothing else to really set them above the rest. There are also times when I have left here and been rather disappointed with my food. It's never been particularly bad tasting, it's just hard to put my finger on what it is. Quite an elusive review this one, for quite an elusive place.

The food is average, the service is okay, and I can think of another much better Chinese takeaway a tiny bit further down Kellaway Avenue. The menu is cheap but uninspiring. Although the exterior promotes a vast selection of Cambodian, Taiwanese, Szechwan and Mongolian cuisine, there really that much on the menu. I would certainly recommend that people give this place a go because the food is never horrific and fills the tummy.

They do offer free deliveries on orders over a certain price. The chicken I have found is a bit too dry, and not what I would usually favour, even after a few bevvies.

This is mainly because they have the word Chicken in the name oif their shop, but alsovbecause the food the dish up is pretty tasty too, although i would say not the greatest i have ever had - but in all honesty that would be a mammoth task to achieve. When I find myself out on a Gloucester Road pub crawl I do like to pop in here on my way home (or at least somewhere to crash) to pick up some scrummy Chicken to finish the night off well. It tends to get pretty busy later on in the evenings, but everyone in here is always in a jovial mood so it's quite a nice place to be, the prices are pretty much the standard and the guys working here are very charming.

Atomic burger serves up a great combination of delicious burgers, quirky decor, mega milkshakes and…read more'I-need-one-of-those' cocktails. Based in the middle of Gloucester road, it has a fair bit of competition. In fact, over the last few years there have been quite a few burgers restaurants open in Bristol, but Atomic Burger offer a really different, fun experience. First things first; the restaurant is comic book themed. Everything from the walls, floor, menu and windows is covered in marvel-style comic book pictures. That obviously makes it a great place to take kids, but you'll also find lots of couples, groups and students. It's probably not the best place for a business lunch. Me and my girlfriend went for the first time yesterday and it was great to sit outside and make the most of the sun. We sat on the same table as another couple and got chatting to them. They had been to Atomic Burger MANY times and were on a quest to try every burger on the menu. If you do then you get 20% off for 12 months. Just ask for a sticker after your meal and if you collect them all you get the life discount. The couple both had cocktails that had a bottle of Sol larger upside down in the glass - I didn't care what it was, I wanted one! After ordering "whatever they've got" it turned out to be a 'largerita' which was SO good! The Sol slowly tops up your margarita as you drink - genius! I'm a sucker for a gimmick! The menu is big and actually a little bit confusing. I went with the LLAP: beef burger, pulled chicken, blue cheese sauce, Louisiana hot sauce and spring onion. It was amazing! I had the garlic and chilli fries which were also really good. The best thing for me though, was the beavers jalapeño mustard. Mmmm, beavers jalapeño muuuustard!! A must try if you like spicy food. We left, met some friends at another bar, and then went back to Atomic Burger to show them the largeritas. I'm not sure if I'll eat there enough times to get the 20% life discount, but I'll definitely be back!

The food isn't exactly diet friendly, but who goes to a burger joint for salad? There's absolutely loads of choice so you can pretty much have anything you want on top of your burger, and you have the choice of chicken, beef or veggie. All the burgers are named after famous characters and the menu looks great. There's some crazy drinks on there too - from bacon milkshakes to lageritas (a personal fave!) My boyfriend ordered the hot chicken wings recently. He was warned they were extremely hot but he can handle spice so he went for it anyway! What followed was hilarious! One bite and he was sweating, dizzy, couldn't feel his lips and not feeling so clever anymore. We since found out they are made with three of the hottest chillies on earth! They had over a million Scoville units! They do takeaway if you don't want to sit in (or you've got someone you can send to pick it up and bring it to you in bed with a hangover!) They also do a mean hotdog! I had a hotdog with red onions, American cheese sauce and pulled pork the other day and it was yummy! It's quite a lot of money for what it is (£10ish a burger) but you get a naughty, messy meal that's delicious! I took my 12 year old nephew and he loved it because it's something a bit different! My 30 yr old mates also love it for the same reason.

Friday night down at the Mall Cribbs Causeway isn't really where I wanted to find myself this week…read more But nevertheless that is where I was, shopping for lighting in a complex that has enough lighting options to give Blackpool a good run for its money. John Lewis, Marks and Spencer's, Next and Argos all offering different pendants, chandeliers, lamps and wall lights. Thankfully I only needed two lights for the living room but as usual walked out with more than what I wanted. Two chandeliers and a ceiling light! With all of that done it was time to eat. We chose to eat in the Mall because let's face it who wants to be cooking on a Friday night? The mall offers a wide variety of places to eat. From takeaways to eat in restaurants the choice is quite varied. However for some reason KFC and McDonalds are no longer there? Fried chicken and hamburgers are a staple in the Patchway diet so I don't know how they are coping with these two institutions now gone? We decided to move away from the main food court as Yo Sushi isn't all that, Pizza Hut can play havoc with your colon and Café Rouge is rather overpriced for what you get! On the same level as the main food court but at the other end of the Mall the John Lewis end you'll find opposite HMV the restaurant come takeaway 'Tortilla'. A Californian stroke Mexican eatery that specialises in burritos, nachos and tacos. It's been open a little while and seems to be doing well? It's not often you see a specific taco place to eat in so we gave it a go. Walking in the instant impression you get is this place is the Subway Sandwiches of the taco world. It's long deli style counter bulging with different taco and burrito fillings. From salsa to pulled pork it was all there. Chunks of beef swimming in a chilli sauce glistening under the halogen lights. Crisp fresh salad awaiting the variety of different dressings and golden tortilla chips standing out like shards of edible glass from their container. We where greeted warmly with a smile from the guy behind the counter who took our order. I had the trio of tacos with pulled pork, cheese, salsa, guacamole and sour cream. My shadow had a baked burrito with rice, beans, cheese and salsa. We sat down in an almost entirely empty restaurant. There was no atmosphere, there's no vibrancy or energy in this place. It's dead! A real shame as it has great potential to be a really fun place to eat on a Friday night with friends. Onto the food then. Once sat down I started to tuck in to my first taco. Now there's no easy way of eating these. You can't eat them with a knife and fork because despite looking like a wally you'd just get food everywhere. So it was a case of picking the thing up and getting on with it. The first bite was a disaster because half of the filling dropped out. But that was because my technique was all wrong. Second go and second bite and wow! Fantastic flavours. The fresh salsa was tasty and alive. The flavours worked. You could taste every individual element and it wasn't overwhelming with chilli or pepper. There was a kick but not one that kicked you in the chest! The guacamole, again fresh vibrant flavours and it wasn't all baby mush. The chunks of avocado where present and it worked really well with the cheese, sour cream and pork. The pork was tender and juicy. Again not overdone with spice but just right. One down two to go. Both demolished in quick succession. I really enjoyed this meal. It was nice to have something different and this place definitely offers that. One the burrito and the taco where gone there was only one thing left to do! Order some more of course! Not burritos and taco though. Instead a plate of their delicious looking loaded nachos. We had a huge plate piled high with pulled pork, guacamole, sour cream, salsa and melted cheese. The cheese was liquid cheese the kind you see only on American TV shows like molten loveliness oozing in and out of the nooks and crannies that made up this plate of tortilla shards. Every mouthful from the very first to the very last was a joy. Crunchy, gooey, meaty and flavourful I could of quite happily eaten another plate had someone put another in from of me. After all that food it was time to leave. We'd already paid the bill as you pay as you go which saves in any embarrassment of accidentally walking out without paying. Yes I have done that on more than one occasion! Not on purpose though I hasten to add. We where now in a completely empty restaurant but the staff behind the counter thanked us for coming, wished us well and bid us goodbye. Top marks for customer service. I'll definitely be going back because the food is very good and yes I would recommend this place to family and friends.

I was also surprised at the amount of vegan options there were, as that is not very common in CA. I got the large jackfruit burrito and while I've never had anything like it at home it is full of flavour and is big enough for two meals. My mom got the carnitas burrito and said it was better than most she has had before. Definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Flamers, however, holds some sort of allure to it with its fiery design and possibly 50's American vibe. The chicken here is pretty darn special too with some really good varieties like spicy hot, and flame grilled. You can grab all the other stuff you'd expect like kebabs, pizzas and burgers - all of which are pretty tasty and come with fresh salad and nice chips - not too soggy, not too crispy. I like it also that you can get tea and coffee to go here, extras not offered by all kebab shops. They also offer a 10% discount if you're a student which basically means anyone below 30. All in all then, Flamers is a fairly safe bet.

Ciao Burger doesn't really offer much more than any of the others nearby. Their burgers and chips are straight down the middle when it comes to taste and price.

I'm actually rather fond of the legendary Rita's on Stokes Croft…read more Of all the chippies, fish n chips and chicken stops in this part of town a real effort has been made at Rita's. In the traditional manner the shop is split in two by a long hot shelf with various treats sitting behind the glass, lagged in batter and grease, but enticing nonetheless. You see, one is rarely put off by such displays for one has walked into the shop in the first place. Once inside it's a wide choice of kebabs, burgers and pies. Long time runners such as fish and chips, the Donner kebab and cheesy chips are always in high demand with the mix of local and student clientele. A good selection of cold drinks and salad, plus the guys behind the counter are always laughing and smiling - this is definitely one of the better places for late night food in Stokes Croft.
