The Bristol Loaf

Popular cafe with delicious meals and good coffee selection. The place houses the Native Wines winery and a vegetable/zero waiste shop. I can really see the appeal as the place is decorated beautifully and the atmosphere is amazing.

Just lovely! I was running errands in the area and decided to pop in quickly. The customer service was amazing. I originally wanted the buttermilk pancakes but didn’t have enough time as I had to be somewhere else. The waitress immediately recommended something similar and even brought me some of the syrup they put on the pancakes.The interior was beautiful. It had a very earthy decoration and was done very well. I sat by the window, there wasn’t much of a view but I loved it still.Honestly, I don’t know the name of what I had. It was some sort of croissant filled with strawberry compote but it was delicious.I will definitely be back to try their brunch menu!

Relaxed restaurant with cafe vibes selling cakes, loaves of bread, pastries and Italian groceries. After a 20 minute wait we eagerly took our seats in the leafy dining room. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the baked cheesecake. It was absolutely amazing, with a creamy and velvety texture that melted in my mouth. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and I couldn't resist going back for seconds. Another standout dish was the kimchi toastie. The combination of the tangy kimchi and the perfectly toasted bread was a match made in heaven. The bread itself was exceptional, with a great texture and flavor that elevated the entire dish. It was evident that a lot of care and attention went into crafting this toastie. I was so impressed that I purchased a mozzarella, tomato, and basil sandwich to takeaway and again it was delicious! The only drawback was the ratatouille which had a bitter taste and was disappointing.

Wonderful food, in a buzzy but relaxed atmosphere! Came here for coffee and brunch, and we were blown away by the food, with our highlight being the bacon sandwich on incredible bread. Very attentive service as well!

I came here for a quick bite to eat with my partner on a Sunday lunchtime. We were seated quickly at the window even though it was very busy. The service was impeccable and the staff were very friendly. We had the overnight oats with gooseberries, which had delicious dates and figs running through it, the chocolate chip coffee, and a cinnamon swirl. Our coffees were perfect too. Definitely recommend!

I loved this place, the food I had was crazy delicious ( poached eggs, spinach and mushrooms on focaccia bread). Also shared a slice of cheesecake with my boyfriend, as one was enough for two. That cheesecake... gods and goddesses... You will not get any better Basque cheesecake anywhere else. Can't wait to come back and try other goodies!

Always good food here and a vibe. Generally it’s quite busy even on the weekdays. Definitely recommend the sandwiches and pancakes if you get the chance!

Great coffee and selection of fresh cakes and sandwiches daily. Also absurdly good vegetarian sausage rolls. All of the food and the coffee is great here, among the very best that Bristol has to offer.I’ve been a few times and staff can be a bit standoffish, often feel like I’m bothering them.

Beautiful interior full of plants!Staff were great, super friendly and polite.I tried their jasmine tea which was served in a cute teapot!I would definitely recommend and will be coming back to try more!

Been here a couple of times and always love the cakes and pastries, it’s absolutely delicious (tried the mini lime cake today), plus the relaxing environment. But I must say that the service is a bit disappointing, this afternoon wasn’t busy at all and I saw the waitress chatting with the other staff at the cashier while people including myself have been waiting for the menu, I’ve met the same staff before and her attitude was equally unwelcoming. It makes sense to wait if the place is crowded but today is definitely not.I’d still recommend this place and visit again, just wish that the service could measure up with the food quality.
