Pub in Bristol

“Thank you to Amy and the entire team at the Old Mill for providing a lovely 'after parade' spread today for the Army and Air Cadets. It was very much appreciated. With best wishes Na”

“A gem of a restaurant. Located off the beaten track this great restaurant is generally busy as well known by locals for good food and great hospitality. Fairly mild dishes (that can be spiced up to taste) but full of flavour and not full of fat.”

“Had food as we know they have just started it ..was simple pub food at a great price .. I had scamp chips and mush peas and sticky toffee pudding and custard Great value tea and lovely helpful staff x”

“Not been here for a little while and forgot what a cool little venue this place is. Friendly security, great quick bar service and always good vibes. Love the architectural lighting sound quality is great! Big up team love!”

“Fantastic. The ½ chicken is the best value food I've had in a long time, due to the quantity to quality ratio, We also had the Goats cheese salad and the nachos. All had great flavours, clearly talent in the kitchen. Thanks for a highlight to a rainy day. Still a mystery on the cafe name?!”

“This place is lovely and welcoming. The service was great, food was amazing. The only downside is they add a gratuity onto the bill without telling you or even giving you a heads up (we had a party of 4). When questioned this they said that it’s added due to the level of service. I live in Canada (grew up in UK) and when I go to a restaurant, regardless of the service, I always like to choose what I’m going to tip. The sad thing about it was I was going to leave a really nice tip but seeing as this wasn’t disclosed when we received our bill, one of the guests asked them to take it off and I gave the tip but less than what I initially had in mind as I felt this was so sneaky.”

“⭐ A Hidden Gem with Heart and Hospitality ⭐ From the moment I rang ahead, I was impressed—the young man I spoke to was incredibly polite and well-informed, setting the tone for a lovely visit. On arrival, we were greeted by a charming young lady at the bar who couldn’t have been more welcoming. She confirmed we were welcome to stay overnight in the car park free of charge, and even offered an electric hook-up (which we didn’t need, so I didn’t ask about the cost). The food was absolutely excellent—fresh, hearty, and full of flavour—and the drinks menu had something for everyone. To top it all off, there was an open mic session that evening, which was a real treat. Great atmosphere, great people, and a genuinely memorable night. Highly recommended for anyone looking for good food, good vibes, and a warm welcome.”

“This is a lovely place to break a long journey and enjoy a tasty lunch. Extensive menu, including sandwiches, pizzas (yummy yum) and more. Great range of ciders too. Large garden with plenty of tables - some overlooking the canal.”

“We had Sunday lunch here with the family and it was excellent. The food was lovely, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and it’s dog-friendly too — the garden room was perfect for us. Mike was really accommodating and made sure everything went smoothly. Would recommend!”

“Best Caesar Salad in Bristol. Impressive for an airport stop off! Abi & Gabby were great servers, i’ve stopped here a few times and their service is always top tier and consistent, always friendly, fast and polite. My place of choice for a drink or bite whenever passing through thanks to their efforts and the great food.”

“Came in for some food and drinks with friends. We had a lovely experience, the staff were friendly and funny. We met the boss Poppy and could not have felt more welcomed. She was warm and engaging, giving us a very enthusiastic wave from across the bar. Food was good, had a burger and it hit the spot. Overall a lovely time, I’ll definitely be back.”

“We found this lovely pub on boxing day and had a drink here. Lovely pub, and staff were all nice. We returned on the 27th for another couple drinks. The pub is a lovely olde pub, and had a delicious choice of draught beers and ales available. From what I saw they also have lots of choice of rims etc, but we stuck with the ales and stouts.”

“We ordered from the festive menu today, and the seven of us were in full agreement that the food, service, ambience and value for money were excellent. Our thanks to all the staff concerned.”

“Lovely little place in the middle of Yate shopping centre. Great food at amazing prices, lovely friendly staff and moat of all, very clean. Great job guys.”

“Great place for a cheap bite to eat and a few beers”

“Very good afternoon out, enjoyed it. Staff could be more accommodating at 12 noon.”

“It was perfect. The party of 11 people were all seated together in a lovely private area. They allowed us to put up decorations for my 70 th birthday celebration. I think we all had different meals, but they came out together and we're all piping hot. I had the belly pork and it was simply delicious, I definitely need the recipe for the gravy! The staff were attentive but not pushy. It was a really lovely occasion made even more special by the staff and the food . Well done to you all.”

“A very good Toby carvery which stands out compared to a couple of the other local venues. £6 carvery deal is unbeatable value. They know what they are good at and they execute well. It’s not fancy but it is dependable. We’ll be back. (Remember to key your reg number on the tablet or face a parking fine)”

“We popped in on a Friday lunchtime and it was packed but we still got a nice table. Fantastic boozer typical spoons very competitive prices and a really nice menu personally I love the curry’s. The variety of beers is outstanding. Lovely clean table and very friendly staff oh and how reasonable is the food overall I love it. My only negative is spoons stopped serving Fosters. Keep up the good work.”

“We ate at Grounded Brislington in October for a work event. The manager was really helpful with the pre-order and made sure we were all happy throughout the evening, which is tricky in a smaller venue with a large group. All the staff were lovely Food was great, very generous portions too. We'd definitely come back here”

“We had a freedom breakfast here on Tuesday morning. The whole place is extremely clean due to very efficient and hard working staff. The meal was great and cooked just how we like it. The atmosphere of the whole place was welcoming and friendly with a large range of ages and groups meeting up. A great place to go.”

“Lovely atmosphere, only fault is the online cider you serve is sweet cider and for some of us we prefer a drier one, like thatchers dry or Stowford press. Also no Ash trays in the back smoking area, hate putting dog ends in the floor”

“Breakfast at The Van Dyck Forum was excellent — warm atmosphere, friendly staff, and beautifully prepared food. The coffee was great, and everything tasted fresh and high-quality. A perfect spot to start the day. Highly recommended!”

“Watched the England vs New Zealand game and had the best time ! Crisp fresh ciders and the bar staff were Lovely. So glad I chose the chicken wings they were great value and tasty. Will definitely be back for more sport, food and good beer”

“I love coming here for breakfast and a good chat with friends. No one rushes you to leave, you can just sit and talk for as long as you like. Plus, the coffee and tea are refillable — such a great spot for catching up!”

“We had the Carvery. Lovely Meats beautifully cooked Turkey, Beef & Gammon. A good choice of well cooked Vegetables & the Onion gravy was lush. The Sauces complemented the dinner. Well reccomended to all.”

“Busy Hungry Horse, Greene King Pub. There was plenty of space at 4 pm on a Friday and loads of choice. 5 adult meals and two childrens meals for £82 including a drink.”

“We had the Sunday carvery and it was really good. Lots of choice and the food was delicious.”

“Impressive façade for a Spoons, was quite busy but managed to get a table and my burger which I ordered via the app arrived in 10 mins and was great value. Would recommend if you like a Spoons.”

“Came in here for lunch. The service was good and very quick. We ordered the bacon and cheese burger with fries. I didn't enjoy the sauce which came with the burger, the rest of the burger was delicious. It was a fair size and a really good price. The bacon and cheese burger was only £12.”
