Food was good. It's pretty cramped and tight inside there's not much space. As long as you don't mind it's decent.

The best Sunday lunch I have ever had out and incredibly friendly staff to accompany. Would highly recommend getting a booking in for this, it is 100% worth the wait!

One of the best roast I’ve ever had. We had 2 courses and both starter and mains are amazing! The beef was tender and pork belly was great as well. The staff are very nice and friendly:) Well worth a visit!

Amazing food. Great central location and brilliant service. Sam and the team are fantastic at what they do and are always so welcoming and look after their customers. They have an exceptional foodie reputation and have won numerous awards for their food. You can see why they’ve won a plethora of accolades. One of the best places in Bristol and would highly recommend it.

The portions were too little unfortunately. A really small tea and the pasta was not enough as a main meal, the taste was delicious though. We ordered a soup but ‘the last bit of soup had fallen’ and they didnt had any soup left. So we took the pasta. We didn’t get any cutlery, so we took it ourselves. For such a small place there should be more attention to such details. A small cozy place but no wow effect for this price.

Booked a roast dinner at the bank tavern almost 2 years ago and finally got to try the famous roast dinner out and it didn’t disappoint. The pub itself is tucked away and if you haven’t been before is easy to miss. Inside is a nice mix of new and old and the pub itself is very small and probably explains why the waiting list is so long! The starter I went with was the ham hock and it was great! For main I went with roast beef and it’s possibly the best roast beef I’ve had. It’s soft and tender and just melts in the mouth! Roast potatoes were nice and crispy also. My only complaint with my main course was I only had 2 pieces of beef, where as most other places I’ve had a roast offer 3. And for dessert I went with a white chocolate crème brûlée which again was one of the best I’ve had. All this for £19.95 is outstanding value and will be hard to beat at that price. The staff were friendly and helpful and made sure everything was okay with our food.

We didn't have any reservation but were early so we got a table for 2pax. Ordered the Sunday beef roast and it was delicious. Loved the side condiments that go well with the beef slices. Prefer the lighter ale instead. Very good service though its a tight space.

A great pub. Amazing atmosphere, the service was the best. The best Sunday roast ever. Great ingredients and perhaps the best beef that Ive ever eaten. Now I can understand why the Sunday is always fully booked. Give it a try at least for a beer, the place is magical
