Add some locally sourced organic food, and a proprietor that caters for dietary requirements AND an art gallery and you'll get close to Annie's Tea Rooms. Probably the best Banoffee Pie I've ever tasted, not to mention the salmon and pasta; oh and the ice cream. This a place where you can wake up and smell the coffee and STILL be in the same place!

A friendly, independent cafe that serves top notch grub…read more We found this place online and decided to pay them a visit as the burgers sounded good - we weren't disappointed! One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Served with a choice of either fries or chunky wedges (think roast potato wedges and you'll get the idea). The cafe makes its own hot sauces and strawberry jams, all of which you should try if you get a chance as they're all scrumptious. You can even buy jars of the sauces to take home. Service is warm & friendly and you're made to feel incredibly welcome the second you walk in the door to the moment you leave. If you're on the lookout for something a bit more genuine and satisfying than what the nearby commercial chains can offer this is the place!

Freakshakes in Bristol!…read more When I was told about this cafe selling Freakshakes in Bristol, I couldn't quite believe it. I thought that was just a Shoreditch deal. But no, this cafe really are selling some fine calorific freakshakes! It's a basic cafe inside, with a small fish tank (always nice to see fishies), there are even some sofas to sit on if you really want to get comfortable. I went on a Saturday lunch time, and even though there's quite a lot of seating available, the whole place was full. I had to make my order and sit outside for 10 minutes, luckily I sofa became available so I quickly nabbed my spot inside the warm cafe opposite the fish tank. We ordered 3 freakshakes, Invision Our Vanilla, Peanut Butter Passion & Raspberry Roulette, all of which were really, really good. They tasted amazing and they looked so freaky too. We did have these as a dessert and had ourselves some savoury paninis first, which were very tasty too, especially the BBQ Pulled Pork Panini. I'd totally recommend going to this place, even if it's just for a panini/sandwich and a coffee, but if you make the effort to go here you've really gotta have a freakyshake. Better yet, take someone who will be unsuspecting of this freaky creation, they will be surprised for sure. Thanks Beehive Coffee House, you made Bristol a much cooler city!

Went into the acorn café recently to order breakfast with my partner and a friend, and was bowled…read moreover by the superior food and service. The prices are fair and good value for money. I will be going back there every sunday from now on. The cafe itself was elegant and had beautiful surroundings, the garden centre near by is quaint. As well as breakfast they do a main meal menu, as well as a selection of wines and deserts. Although I cannot say how good the rest of the menu is, judging by our breakfast the prices are also fair for the main menu. The only thing missing is a website where you can view a menu and opening times. I understand you can book larger parties with them, however this would have to be via the phone as there is no email or web contact available.

With such an outstanding location overlooking Avon Gorge and the beautiful Clifton Suspension…read moreBridge, this café certainly makes the most of its location but doesn't score quite so highly with me on its food. It's part of the Avon Gorge Hotel, but it's open to non-guests too and is always heaving at weekends with tourists, visitors and hotel guests. You can get coffee all day, but check before you go there for breakfast, lunch or dinner because they're served between specific times. If it's the food you're going for, I'd say there are plenty of other establishments in Clifton offering better value and quality than the Bridge Café - but you're really paying for the whole experience here, particularly the elegant surroundings and the location, and I'd highly recommend eating here at least once if only to enjoy what has to be one of Bristol's most striking and spectacular views.

For views of the Clifton Suspension Bridge you can't beat The Bridge Cafe, which clings to the…read morerockface at the rear of the Avon Gorge Hotel. I went here for lunch today and took advantage of the £9.95 for two courses offer, which was incredibly reasonable given the spectacular location and tasty and well-presented food. The one thing that did surprise me was how quiet the restaurant was. Fair enough, it was a Monday lunchtime, but given the beautiful setting I thought it would have been more popular.

However, I was out and about running errands and I popped in for one of their malted wheat sourdoughs (I promise that I was not engaging in corporate espionage, I just wanted some bread OK?). The bread was a sensation. I am excellent at making homechurned butter, and therefore my need for well-prepared bread is exceptionally great. I can confirm to all that this was a satisfactory partner. I was interrogating the cashier about this and he was a bit confused about my clearly stated needs, but otherwise friendly. I would probably return!

It was busy, so you could tell that it is a popular spot. It is set on the river that runs through the village so you can enjoy your breakfast while the water slowly flows by you. This area and the cafe are beautiful. The staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. Even though they were very busy, they showed no signs of being annoyed or overwhelmed. They seemed genuinely happy you were there and eager to make sure you were happy with your stay. We ordered the sausage rolls and a Cornish pastry and they were very good. I'm sure there are a lot of amazing restaurants in the place, but you would not go wrong stoping by here to grab a coffee and a bite to eat.

Lady Marmalade I…read morewill start by saying that The Marmalade café is my favourite café in Bristol. Obviously it helps being just around the corner from home but at the same time the quality of food and friendly service are both excellent. Any good café can be judged by its breakfast and The Marmalade Café comes up trumps with high quality ingredients, cooked well for a cheap price. What more could you ask for? If you do order the cooked breakfast make sure you also ask for the veggie option of home made bubble and squeak to be added. This elevates the breakfast to another level. I now can't imagine ordering a breakfast without it. Apart form the breakfast the food is all great with interesting daily specials and cakes always available. Including homemade Marmalade of course. There is also a nice resident puppy called Doris who if you are lucky will say hello. Easily the best café in the Blackboy Hill area and I urge you to visit.

1 year later, this place is still awesome…read more Definitely hands-down the best breakfast place in Clifton. Their homemade marmalade is so good, I think about it throughout the year while I'm not in the UK. I'm not sure where they get their bacon, but it's absolutely killer. The anytime breakfast with a side of crumpets/marmalade with tea is about £8. You can't get a better deal than that for fresh, made-to-order food that's not greasy. I'm so glad this place has survived in an address that's historically had quite a bit of turnover.

We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. We…read moredecided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!

Absolutely love this wee gem of a cafe! Definitely would recommend for brunch!…read more Workhouse is located near the Bristol hospital and near 0 degree distillery (apologies don't remember the road name haha), it's a corner cafe restaurant overlooking the main and pedestrian roads. Perfect spot for people watching, my fav hobby! You order at the little counter thing and can choose whether to pay after ordering or after eating. I was starving so I got French toast with blueberries, agave syrup, caramelised banana and bacon + avocado, banana, agave, matcha smoothie! Yes it was as good as it sounds. The presentation was on point and my tummy was so delighted to consume errthang!!! So good. I also asked another customer what she was having, she ordered mushroom toast with avocado and that look beautiful as well! Me thinks presentation here is key hahaha altogether it was about £13? Don't mind since it was good and presented so well! Service was ok albeit one wee grumpy lady but other than that everything was cool. Loved it! Highly recommend
