Impromptu visit on a Tuesday evening with friends. Food, decor and atmosphere was brilliant and our waitress, Hermione was super friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend and will be back for sure!

Came for my birthday brunch, service was warm and friendly and efficient! Lovely drinks we had bloody Mary’s and mimosas! Brunch we had sausage baps with hash browns that were delicious! Absolutely would come back and recommend to friends! I’ve been a few times for drinks and I’ve never been disappointed!

It was my first visit to the Forge and Fern for their 1st Birthday and Honey Fest.It was absolutely stunning!I parked a 5 minute walk away in a free car park (council run)The decor inside was absolutely wonderful. It was very high spec and I was blown away by how good it looked. There is indoor and outdoor seating.They have Rooftop bees which the honey from their hives go into making their honey treats.They have a vast menu of food, Drinks and sweet treats.The staff were really friendly and accommodating. They were attentive and really looked after us.* clean, tidy, stunning decor* comfy seating, good amount of tables* indoor and outdoor seating.* Rooftop bees* local produce* local beer and their own Forge and Fern gin* breastfeeding and child friendly* bright, airy and well lit* toilets were very clean and very nicely designedCurrently at home to one of the unicorns for the summer (unicornfest23), so to coincide with that, they have a Unicorn themed menu.

Lovely place for a Sunday roast, generous portions without being too much, good choice and both the starters and puddings had a great selection and were delicious too. The atmosphere is great too, with a selection of different seating that manages to keep the tables private. The wallpaper on the ceiling and glowing ceiling lights are really beautiful.

Incredible Sunday Roast! Sat down had a few minutes to look over the drinks menu, ordered and had them almost immediately after. 5 more minutes to look over the food menu, ordered and all of a sudden all 4 roasts arrived ever so quick and was absolutely delicious!

We were here the last day of November between 17:45 ish and almost 19:20.We've waited over 10 mins for someone to take our order and ended up going to the bar to ask for some assistance. The restaurant had only a handful of tables occupied and what seemed to be most of the waiters were socializing behind the bar.Someone ended up taking our order which came after 10ish minutes for drinks and appetizers and 25mins for mains.The nachos came with no jalapenos and we had to try for over 3 minutes to even make eye contact with a waiter to be able to flag this and ask for them.Chicken burgers tasted good. Colleslaw was warm.All in all, pretty design, cozy feeling and, with a hit or miss, tasty food but an experience that was made unpleasant by the service.Someone from the team came at the end of our visit to bus our table and asked how our experience was and we've told them everything that's writen in this review. Trying to make things better, he comped our drinks when we asked for the check, which we appreciated. Our order being taken after 10 minutes upon our request was only one aspect of the low quality service. Waiters didn't say thank you or enjoy your food and the only time someone asked how everything was was at the end of our meal.We will not be going back.

A really nice atmosphere. Friendly staff and good service. I had small plates Korean Fried chicken, mac and cheese bites with a bowl of skin on fries which was just enough. It all tasted great.I will definitely be going back again.

Read menu before arriving- was spoilt for choice. I choose the veggie Wellington!! It was amazing - I’m not a vegetarian but it more than lived up to its name. DELICIOUSThe waitress was good- explained about the Gin’s, food requirement,allergies. Wow!!they had it all covered. Well trained informative staff- not often seen. Well done on everything- I’ll be back

Best roast I’ve had in Bristol…after trying a fair few great ones over the years (Pasture, Albion, Bank Tavern etc).The restaurant itself is beautiful! Super warm atmosphere, the staff are lovely and service fantastic. Loved that they really hero local produce and the homemade cheesecake was incredible. Prices are definitely more than reasonable for the quality - will be making this a regular!!
