I love pizza! I love Gloucester Road. I love Flour and Ash!…read more It's been a while since I've found a small pizza place that I've absolutely loved. There's a few good places to 'grab a slice' in Bristol, but none quite like Flour and Ash. The restaurant is intimately small, with really nice, large windows and a row of tables against each wall and a row a bigger tables through the middle of the restaurant. Now, the pizza. OMG, the pizza! I was lucky enough to go with a few people, so I got to try a slice of a few, but the stand outs for me was the Ox Cheek and the Filler Steak. The Ox Cheek had a béchamel base with Ox cheek and parmesan, which was surprisingly amazing. It wouldn't have been something I normally went for, as it didn't have tomato base, but I saw it on a recent blog post so had to try it. When I go again I'll try something else, but I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who hasn't been before. The fillet steak pizza was HUGE! The tomato base was absolutely delicious and the steak was perfect; not at all fatty or gristly! They sell lots of local beers and ciders and they actually had one of the best malbecs I've ever tasted. If you like red wine, you seriously need to try it. Flour & Ash? BIG fan!

I recently made my first visit to Flour & Ash for my partner's birthday. We wanted a place that was…read morea bit different, can cater for big groups and was casual for the start of the night before going to a few bars. After considering a couple of options Flour and Ash seemed like it met the criteria. I provisionally booked a table for 10.... After 4 phone calls and gradual increases the table number became 20! The guys there were happy to accommodate but did warn that it was the absolute max, as would take up half the restaurant and due to the set up of 1 stone bake pizza oven the food would have to come out in stages. Table booked. I'd had a look at the website prior to booking and they had some extremely intriguing pizza's on the menu all with a contemporary twist such as the pizza I eventually chose; ox cheek with béchamel sauce and parmesan. All the pizzas are made with sourdough, cooked in the pre-mentioned stone bake oven, which is an absolute beast by the way! If you're after a desert there's a simple choice of locally sourced ice creams that have various different flavours, some a little off kilter like rice pudding and nutmeg! The restaurant is decorated light and minimal with long benches through the middle which catered for our large group and smaller tables up each side. The place has a modern feel to it. You can see right in to the kitchen where the centrepiece of the giant stone bake oven is flaming. A number of us went for the ox cheek pizza and all thought it was amazing, genius! In fact everyone enjoyed their pizzas. Other highlights included the beef fillet, horseradish & rosemary and the chorizo, pickled chillies & rocket. There's also an excellent selection of beers and ciders on offer which I sampled quite a few of! The chocolate milkshake Wiper & True stout was a winner! Service wise the restaurant did struggle a little with the large group. However this is totally understandable as they had said at the outset that it was a push to cater for 20 and due to the kitchen set up the website clearly states pizzas may come out at different times. We had a little trouble paying at the end of the meal as there was a problem with the till, so we had to hang around for a bit. But there's always going to be teething problems with a new restaurant and I guess this can't really be helped any way. All in all definitely recommended, if anything maybe for a slightly smaller group. I'll be back. Thanks for accommodating Flour & Ash!

It was pretty busy when we got there but luckily our group was small, three of us. We were seated on the 2nd floor which was pretty roomy and a bit warm but then again, we are in a pizzeria. I ended up ordering the La Bella Vita pizza which had mozzarella, pepperoni sausage, Italian salame, torn chicken breast, and bacon. It was delicious and the cheese was perfect and not too cheesy. The sauce on the pizza had a great taste that put it over the top, amazing. I paired it well with my Aperol Spritz and took in the views while eating. Our waitress was great and recommended some must see locations while we were in town. She was great. If I ever come back to Bath, I will definitely stop by again because there were some other menu items that caught my eye and plus, the service was great.

Shared one of their specialty pizzas (very tasty, only wish there'd been a bit more generous helpings of the meat topping, as not every slice had it), Caesar salad (big portion, perfect for sharing), and a sampler of their dipping sauces (for the crust -- so good!). They also brought out a pitcher of cold water for the table (an appreciated touch). Would recommend!

The drinks are reasonably priced and there is always a good selection, in the bar area you can order a pizza which is cooked fresh there and then and they serve the delicious pizza right into the early hours, it's a popular after work, after gig/theatre bar and it is without doubt my favourite bar in Bristol - I hope that in 20 years time I'm still eating pizza and drinking pints of cider in Renatos

With a…read morereally nice atmosphere and fairly cheap prices, open fire in the winter and walls entirely adorned with theatre posters or signed photos of various actors from over the years, this is an excellent bar/restaurant which is really worth a look in. I've frequented it many times, perhaps a few too many whilst I was still at college, and the late night pizzas really are quite a selling point - all night they'll serve the traditional and very high quality pizzas to their gradually drunker clientelle. You can take your pick with seating - there's a comfy room with sofas, and the aforementioned fire, to the left of the bar, or else the main room with the poster wallpapered walls has tables, chairs and benches. Without fail getting a seat is always a bit of an art when I've been here, but that's more part of Renatos' charm rather than a failing. Come here more than once and you'll see the same staff - it's a closely run family business. They also own the restaurant across the road (which has the same name), which is a far more traditional restaurant affair and has a wider variety on the menu than just pizza. Both sides of the road are a must.

It was in places like Planet Pizza that I could really tuck into some truly awesome slices. The Spicy Meat Feast or Baby Goat's Cheese and Spinach were just two of my favourites, and still would be I am sure! The dough is well made with a hint of oregano, not too thick or thin and loads of good quality cheese over the top. From the beautifully smelling kitchens there comes a noise of smooth production and laughter. Every topping conceivable has been requested - and almost always served. People come here to enjoy great pizza in a place as keen about it as they are. And they get exactly what they want.

The menu is a normal pizza express menu, which I've always found really quite good. They have a great stone baked feel and don't overladen your stomach. The salads are yummy too, the nicoise that I had was light and tasty! A really nice place to bring a date, or your family, or just to have a nice sit down meal with mates. Although the food is the same you'd get at all the other branches, it's the environment here that makes it special.

If you're trying to find the place look out for the guys smoking hookers and drinking Turkish coffee (which I highly recommend.) The food is just wonderful. This is a kebab shop, but about as far away as the row of greasy kebab selling places at the bottom of Park Street (Bristol's number one location for a fight on a Saturday night, incidentaly). Good quality meat, not horribly greasy, and excellently seasoned. This is somewhere to go for a meal, not just for a end of the night. Although, whilst the food's restaurant quality, there isn't really anywhere to sit, so it's probably best to order out. Go to the Cedar Express to get a proper kebab rather than something that'll clog your arteries.

They were very confused but seated us and honored it. We started with a salad and the focaccia (which was really just a white pizza). Both were good. They have some nice wines. Then we had margherita pizzas and one speciality pizza. I asked for some chili oil to help give it some flavor but even that wasn't spicy. For dessert we had some ice cream and I tried a cannoli. Also mediocre. The shell was overdone and the cheese was just okay. I've never had one that only was made with ricotta and no mascarpone at all.
