Bank in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was delivered hot and was very good.

Really nice place, the service was excellent and the food is great as it gives you the opportunity to try things in combination that maybe you wouldn't normally. It is a little pricey and not totally sure the price is reflective of what you get but I would definitely recommend it.

The team at BANK were fantastic, and the food was incredible. We had some complex dietary needs (gluten allergy / halal / alcohol free) and they were so accommodating, chatted us through everything. The food was 10/10. Couldn’t recommend more.

Really creative food with laid back but efficient service.

Amazingly delicate pork that holds it own with a lovely gravy and veggie side dishes

Every plate was outstanding! We'll definitely be back, thank you! My only small complaint would be that it was quite loud in the restaurant when it got busy - maybe hang some of those sounddulling "clouds" from the ceiling to sort out the acoustics?

BANK is our go-to Sunday roast restaurant. After embarking on the quest to find the best Sunday roast in Bristol, we stumbled across BANK and haven't looked back since. They do their dishes incredibly well, making sure everything is cooked to perfection whilst also adding twists and flairs that make it more exciting for a foodie than the general Sunday roast fare. In particular, their vegetables (which normally can be a bit sad in a Sunday roast) are great company to the main hero of the meal. The sharing roasts are an absolute treat, and my favourite roast to date was a roast lamb they did a while ago which also came with, what I can only describe as, a breaded and fried rolled stick of lamb deliciousness. The team at BANK are always super friendly and the restaurant has a spacious and easy going vibe. Would recommend booking ahead as well as booking for towards start of service as it tends to guarantee perfect roast potatoes. Their dinner menu is great too, but the Sunday roast is what keeps us going back.

Best Sunday roast I ever had! A bit pricey but absolutely worth it. Meat incredibly well cooked and banging Jalapeño bloody marys. The only downside is that it was a bit stuffy and noisy, as we had a 10 people table sat next to us, which made us not being able to hear each other. Anyway, I will be back to try the chicken roast. Thank you for a great experience:)

Hands down the best roast I've ever had in more than 5 years, absolutely amazing. Service and food was 10/10, even coffe and cocktails, just perfect. Jalapeño bloody mary is just the best. Sadly we got a 10 noisy people table next to us but nothing to do with the place. Definetely I would recomend it, and I will be back.

Just had another exemplary meal and evening at Bank. Love this restaurant. Seriously good food. Delicious wine. Top drawer coffee, topped off by excellent service. Favourite restaurant in Bristol bar far. Coming back very soon!!! Friday in fact 😁

Amazing roast pork, and the cauliflower cheese was incredible. I would also really recommend the deserts, so many unusual but delicious flavours, best pannacotta I’ve ever had!

Usual incredibly awesome food with Westcombe and Wildings pairing event last night.

Exceptional flavours the food was out of this world. The menu changes regularly and there are a number of special dining events which sell out quickly offering food from around the globe . The atmosphere is vibrant and the staff knowledgeable about the menu and wines. Bank offers many vegan/vegetarian and gluten free options. This has become a go to venue reasonably priced for the top quality locally sourced produce that is served. Highly recommend a visit. And a plus that dogs are also welcome.

One of the best Sunday roasts me and my partner have ever had. As a vegetarian, roasts are often dry and tasteless, BANK’s veggie roast is nothing like this. The veg is crunchy and flavoursome, and the main celeriac is gorgeous. The best part of the entire meal is undoubtedly the gravy, full of salty goodness and texture. It is expensive, and small portions, but I was very full and I believe worth the cost.

Amazing Sunday roast - the sharing steak was perfect! Amazing vegetables and my Dad really enjoyed the vegetarian option.

Pleasant restaurant in Totterdown. I've heard some good things about this roast so naturally wanted to give it a try. Firstly, staff were really attentive and welcoming. The menu allows for sharing platters as well as individual meals. I went for the pork belly, it was tasty and the garlic taste really complimented the pork belly. However the pork belly itself wasn't tender enough and the portion was quite small. The pork crackling was too tough . The rest of the roast was perfect. Yorkie pud wasnt too crispy . Roast potatoes were seasoned well and again the garlic taste was a welcomed edition. Gravy was very tasty, cabbage, sweet potato puree really added to the dish and again tasted brilliantly. Special mention of the week goes to the cauliflower cheese . The smoked red Leicester was so tasty. The one of the best I've had in Bristol

The food was absolutely amazing and the best roast I have ever had!! Every part of the meal from the beautifully cooked crispy potatoes and cauliflower and smokey cheese sauce to the mouth-watering lamb and green harissa, I could not fault! We will definitely be back for more! 😁😁

Once more fabulous food at Bank. High end Michelin star type food which is a cut above the rest. Delicious and excellent service

Sharing beef roast was the smallest Sunday roast I ever had. Meat was delicious but there wasn’t much of it. What is more, vegetable portion was definitely only for one person. Absolutely not worth the money, both of us left feeling half hungry.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at BANK and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We were warmly welcomed and served by Sarah, whose attentive and friendly service added to the evening's enjoyment. The food was exceptional, beginning with the Grilled Nocellara olives, which offered a unique and delightful twist on traditional olives and came in a generous portion. The smoked nuts were the perfect complement to our wine selection, adding a smoky depth that paired beautifully. One of the highlights was the burnt grape salad with Cornish octopus—an absolute divine combination of flavors and textures. The Sourdough focaccia was another standout, being both light and incredibly moreish. The wine selection was superb, and the Love O Love wine we chose was amazing, perfectly enhancing our meal. However, the true star of the evening was the Sirloin with Rendang. The meat was cooked to perfection, and the rich, flavorful Rendang sauce elevated it to new heights. The ambience at BANK was equally impressive, providing a perfect backdrop for a memorable dining experience. Every aspect of our visit, from the food to the service to the atmosphere, was perfect. I highly recommend BANK for anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience in Bristol. We will definitely be returning!

Lovely food. Everything we had was cooked to perfection. Notable dishes were the Beef Shin Nugget and the Lardo starter. Also we'd never had cooked olives before and they were a revelation. Great service too. Thank you!

I came here with a couple of friends for one of my birthday meals and myself and my friends loved it! They've got a mostly gluten-free menu, and honestly, every small plate we tried was a hit—no misses! We ordered all the small plates and I recommend doing the same. The vibe there is super relaxed but still feels special, perfect for dinner night out. The drinks were spot on, we tried a mix of cocktails and wine and it meant being the last ones to leave! Even though I'm all about trying new spots, I'm already planning to go back to BANK soon to check out their larger plates. Highly recommend it if you're in Bristol and looking for a great place to eat and hang out!

Five adults and one toddler went for Sunday lunch which was excellent and served a little bit differently to many other places. You can have a whole chicken to share or 20oz of sirloin beef to share. Unfortunately I was the only one that wanted beef and that would have been too much and the chicken had sold out. Went for the leg of lamb instead which was very tender and cooked to perfection. Some of the others had pork belly which was well received. Vegetables were plentiful, the best being the cabbage cooked over charcoal,. Excellent and varied wine list. Staff were brilliant and helpful , serving the toddler ice cream with our starters

Superb. Everything I wanted from a modern Sunday lunch to be. Lamb was perfectly cooked, wine recommendations great, basque cheesecake excellent. Everything was cooked really well. The hispi cabbage was chargrilled spot on, the red cabbage wasn't too sweet, the lamb was beautifully cooked. Very happy punter.

Fantastic little restaurant with a charming atmosphere. Service was incredible and the waiter clearly explained the menu and all the dishes. We got all the small plates between 2 and it worked out the perfect amount. Really interesting mix of dishes and every single one was phenomenal. Absolutely perfect for a date night or special meal!

A popular spot for Sunday lunch, we had booked some time ago to get a table, although it wasn’t perhaps quite as busy as expected. It’s a light and airy restaurant, and the staff all seemed friendly and helpful. The menu seemed a bit restricted, with both the chicken and beef options having sold out, leaving just pork belly, duck or a vegetarian option. This seemed a bit poor when they’re probably the two most popular options, but that said I assume these were “to share” anyway, although that was not mentioned on the menu. But with the (whole) chicken coming in at £36, and a 20oz Sirloin at a whopping £67, I would certainly hope that was the case. I went for the pork belly which came with crackling, black garlic and miso as well as a comprehensive set of vegetables, many of them smoked, such as the smoked garlic potatoes or smoked beetroot puree. To be honest, I was a little disappointed with the pork. It seemed quite a small portion, rolled out and only about half an inch thick, and it was definitely a little chewy in places and I didn’t really notice the miso. I’ve certainly had better. On the plus side though, the vegetables were all really very good indeed, especially the (optional extra) barbequed broccoli with a Dorset red cheese gratin, that was quite amazing. A desert of rhubarb trifle was a little non-traditional, with some sort of labneh in place of the cream as well as oats in it, but the end result was quite remarkable, it was exceptionally good, with the “cream” having a caramel tinge to it and the whole thing coming together really well. A dark chocolate ganache across the table was also well received, although it was a little more as expected and didn’t match up to the trifle. Overall, a bit of a mixed bag. It’s certainly got potential, perhaps I was just unlucky, but with the limited choice and disappointing pork, I’m not sure I’ll be rushing back.

Man! The food here is so damn good! So much tastier with way more flavours than I’ve had in ages! And its small plates so you get even more variety! We had all the veg options and were happily full afterwards! Also the atmosphere is really NICE without tipping over into too fancy and the staff are all lush!

Once again (5th time?) this bright and airy restaurant doesn't disappoint, too much. To be clear the only disappointment was that they'd sold all of the Sirloin; that can happen when the wife checks the menu before we arrive and my mind sets on the unavailable meat! Still it's nothing that the Middle White Pork Belly couldn't overcome. Started with a cocktail, which woke the palate, the Mint Eastwood. Pork belly with crackling for us both, very tasty, very tender. The charred hispi cabbage was a standout veg accompaniment, nearly as good as the roasties. Cocount rice pudding a winner for the wife and the rhubarb in my Trifle was a delight, paired with the suggested dessert wines a great finish to a lovely Sunday Roast. Fantastic service by the team. Oh and loyalty points to boot. What's not to like. We will return again when in Bristol. PS apparently you can ring ahead and reserve, which i'll bear in mind for next time!

Visited yesterday to sample the much acclaimed Sunday roast. We had pre ordered the beef sirloin and it certainly didn’t disappoint! Fabulous food, excellent service, warm welcoming atmosphere and excellent and sensibly priced wine menu! We most certainly will be spreading the word about BANK! Looking forward to our next visit soon. Thanks for looking after us so well.

Seriously good food with friendly and attentive service.

Delicious food and lovely, friendly atmosphere! It was our first non-roast experience and it did not disappoint. Try a Pisco 2000 or a You Suze You Lose from their cocktail menu and their wealth of small plate options and you'll be in for a treat! Thanks Dan and team. We're already looking forward to our next visit :)

Best restaurant in Bristol. Everything impeccable. Thank you guys .

Another fabulous night out at Bank! Amazing food, wonderful ambience, and such friendly service. 'Can't wait for next time!

The best roast I’ve ever had! Amazing service & such friendly staff! Would deffo recommend

We had an amazing experience, both the food and the service were of the highest standard.

Delicious!! We had a fantastic weekday lunch deal a few weeks ago, and then booked in for a Sunday roast on mothers day, which was everything we could have hoped for and more! It came with all the trimmings (except the cauliflower cheese, which was a little bit extra but definitely worth it) would 100% recommend

The food was delicious, flavours well balanced, very well presented. I will definitely go again.

Totally in love with this place. We are very lucky to live close to Bank, but would certainly recommend this is worth travelling from further afield to check it out. Seasonal menu, very high quality small plates and a selection of larger plates, too. Definitely on the fancier side of cuisine but you are paying for very high quality food and drink. Represents very good value for money all in all. Cocktails are all very good and made with local spirits. The wine list is also completely brilliant. Fantastic treat. Worth travelling for.

We had a fantastic roast here today. My hubby had pork and I had lamb and they were both lovely. All the side veggies were delicious too and also a great negroni and Bloody Mary to start. Will be visiting again very soon!

The roasts were delicious, a perfect balance of sweet flavours from the veg and salty flavours from the gravy. The pork was so tender, there was a range of texture from the soft fat to the crispy scratching exterior.

Lovely buzzy restaurant but lots of issues. We went on a Saturday night, there were only 4 main courses on the menu and one was off by 7:30 - which we were only told after trying to order. Service was ridiculously slow. We had to wait 20 mins to order drinks which then took an age to arrive. Food took over an hour to reach us. Food was delicious but portions were very small so we asked to look at deserts - and there were only two rice pudding or white chocolate mousse. We didn’t like those so left hungry. Drinks were seriously expensive. We booked ahead and when we arrived were seated at a long sharing table with benches which we weren’t asked about on booking. Overall it felt like they had really overstretched themselves.

Food was excellent. Each small plate was complex in flavours yet the main ingredients stood out. All absolutely delicious and different. It has an added bonus of being dog friendly of which they were very welcoming to my small dog Angus.

10/10 food. Every tapas dish was absolutely incredible. Quick service and lovely atmosphere. Would defo recommend :)

Had a good meal - food was delicious and service was good too. However, there was a long delay to the final course coming out which meant being rushed through it to meet the table curfew, as the next table were waiting. I understand these places have to work to tight schedules, but we only had 15 minutes to eat our desserts , cheese and finish drinks. The waitress was lovely and apologetic, but we spent over £250 on the meal and it was a special occasion, so left a bit of a bitter taste.

Was very much looking forward to the Roast. Unfortunately, it did not match the price or expectation. Potatoes were cold and dry, food took over an hour to come, extremely poor service, hardly had anything on the menu and was very expensive. GO ELSEWHERE!

Excellent meal, superb service and a lovely dining room! I can't eat gluten, and the amount of options available which was GF was amazing, and the quality was superb. Really really reccomend this restaurant, 10/10!

A nice dinner but to be honest this place is a little over rated. It's also not cheap for what it is. A bottle of prosecco at £50 is outrageous. I preferred the old Bank that used to do a great breakfast!

Have been several times and the food has been simply excellent every time. I would especially recommend the tasting menu or Sunday roast (can't go wrong!). The staff are always friendly and attentive, and clearly know the menu well so offer real honest recommendations, and I like that you are attended to as soon as you are seated. It is a real gem of a place.

Still my favourite restaurant in Bristol. The menu is constantly updated with fresh seasonal dishes so there is always something new to try. The barbecued duck breast was a real highlight. Recently discovered the lunch deal so even with three courses our meal ended up being very reasonably priced. Staff always lovely and happy to explain the menu so you can be confident ordering. Will be visiting again for the highly rated Sunday roast asap!

I just dont understand the point of ‘Small Plates’ really… The food is well presented and very tasty, and I guess thats what you’re paying for? There doesnt seem to be breakfast menu any more, which is a shame, although it was limited and slightly overpriced to begin with. The 2 occasions I have visited, the staff have been pleasant and engaging, so credit to them. I guess my rating just reflects the fact that I just don’t get it.

Amazing! The best roast dinner in Bristol in my opinion. I had the lamb sharing roast for two. It was so good I went back a few weeks later and got the pork belly roast. Top tier food, amazing service.

This place is so beautiful I'm not quite sure I have the words. It even smells divine, of the wood smoke everything is cooked over. It wasn't just that I enjoyed the food, I was in raptures over it. I can't do any of it justic but an example is roasted onion on creamy silky goats cheese sauce on a delightful piece of sexy toast ....

After looking forward to visiting Bank since reading all the great reviews , what an absolute disappointment! Front of staff team completely let down by the kitchen . Never have I ever been served cold food in a warm dish … and it didn’t just happen once ! It happened to each of us and we were a party of six. Not keen either on a plate of broccoli with a dollop of peanut butter next to it ? Cold cheese tasted like it was out of a packet for another small plate offer . As for watery, Thai green sauce with undercooked Trout , sorry it was just unpleasant . None of the mail plates came with vegetable accompaniments either . Left feeling like I could do with a good meal !

I used to visit when it was a lounge. The space is nice and fast attentive service. A pared down gourmet menu.

Best white chocolate mouse I have ever tried. Very professional service and lovely atmosphere 👌

Had dinner here with my GF, we liked the food and have a good experience overall, the main disappointment was the price which says on Google "££", so I was expecting fairly standard/moderate restaurant prices which it is not. We spent £95 on 3 small plates, 1 large with a glass of wine each (this was about the minimum we were recommended to order, and I was still a bit hungry afterwards). It was all nice of course but I would ask the owners to make this clearer on Google that this isn't an average priced restaurant.

First time visiting. It was excellent good food and service. We'll definitely visit again!

Went for a roast and it was nice but nothing special. My wife found that the lamb past was over seasoned so couldn’t finish it and I had the pumpkin which was nice but left me hungry, we weren’t able to order the cauliflower cheese side which had run out which was a shame. Would try again, but would wait until there were other options on the menu.

I eat at Bank regularly - tell them it’s ‘really nice’ - then feel that’s a bit inadequate. So here goes… This place goes from strength to strength. The snacks/ small/ large plates menu gives lots of options. There’s always a great welcome whether they’re quiet or busy. The quality ingredients, fire-based cooking and a bit of experimentation add up to really delicious food. And the vegetable based dishes get as much love and attention as the meat/ fish ones.

Great spot that I've wanted to try for ages. The food was very good and the flavors were different to what you normally come across, it wasn't all to my preference but for the most part it was great. The service was top draw and the price is what you expect for the quality of food and drink.

Booked for the Christmas Eve 'pop-up' brunch, and from start to finish the cuisine and service was outstanding. I had the wonderful 'cured Loch Duarte salmon royale' with marie rose hollandaise, lobster bisque and smoked caviar....fabulous! Then to finish the 'smoked pumpkin cheesecake' with milk bread brulee and black sesame ice cream...marvellous! Highly recommend this lovely restaurant!

Been there several times for both the fantastic small plates dinner menu and their wonderful Sunday lunch and previously for their amazing brunch. I have enjoyed tasting the enthusiastic imagination of the head chef which leads to an ever changing menu. On the one hand I wish that u all go to experience this but on the other I wish I could keep it a secret

Had an overall great experience at BANK. We popped by for a quick coffee and ended up having a few snacks as well. Staff were extremely kind and did their best to provide us a great service. Thank you!

Tasty food. Tiny portion. Very expensive. We had to get chips afterwards. Wouldn’t go again.

The dinky but full price cocktails are OK, but I still am to see the appeal of this place.

We went for Sunday lunch. It was excellent. Based on tradition but with some special touches that took it to the next level. Great wine list and service as well. We turned up with an extra person and they accommodated us. We’re not down in Bristol that frequently but Bank will be a must visit next time.

Always a great atmosphere. Fabulous friendly staff and amazing tasty food. They also do some lovely cocktails

Just Amazing, great food full of flavours paired with fantastic wines and cocktails. Highly recommend Bank. Service 5 star. Credit to the chefs with their creativity. Outstanding!!

We had Sunday lunch with friends and it was a pleasant meal. The service was excellent, there is a good amount of space between the tables so you don’t feel like you’re sat with your neighbours (which definitely happens a lot these days) and the food was overall good and seasonal which is great to see. On Sundays there is only a roast option. We ordered the pumpkin and the lamb. The lamb was delicious but the pumpkin was really not enjoyable, very dry and crumbly. We loved the beetroot purée that it was all served on, a really different and delicious addition. The various cabbages and veg sides were cooked beautifully and the cauliflower cheese is a must!! The roast potatoes were tough and dry but improved with more gravy. There were 2 deserts so we had both - the hazelnut panna cotta with whisky ice cream was one of the best deserts I’ve ever had, total heaven. We didn’t enjoy the pineapple rum cake. Coffees were a really good flavour although the latte is very small and more like a flat white/cortado in volume, so very strong if you’re used to a more milky latte. I would recommend having a 10oz cup for the latte. If I could I would have scored 3.5 but the great service pushed it up to a 4.

Over the last couple of years my wife and I have fallen in love with this restaurant and the team behind it. Customer service has always been exceptional even when busy. Whether it's remembering our names, my wife's nut allergy, or remembering past conversations. We always feel super welcome when we open the door. The food on our last visit was brilliant, the kitchen team always know how to treat vegetables in a sympathetic and delicious way! The beetroot was delightful and the nut free alternative pumpkin dish was yummy. The mains were very good, probably some of the best we've had here and the desserts were stunning. We've never had a bad meal here, and I'm glad to see the team get the success they deserve.

Very overpriced cafe. The tepid coffee came in a tiny tiny ‘handleless cup’ and cost £3.30 When did handles go out of fashion ?! It was ridiculous Looking at the food menu it too was over priced. The place had some nice art and plants but it felt empty. Very form over function. Two other customers said they had to ask for a cup with a handle to have a decent cup of tea. I asked too but they said they didn’t have handles 😆.

Bank took their time to figure out what formula works for them in terms of menu format, but they really got there this time! Perfect place for a fun brunch full of surprises and new flavors in a super thought-throughout menu. Glad to see this in Totterdown!

This restaurant never fails to impress. We feel so lucky to have this in our hood! Great fresh and imaginative dishes - good access for wheelchair users - accommodating to dietary requirements. Oh yes, great cocktails and wine choice too.

We came here for a Sunday roast today. The staff were friendly and atmosphere was good. The portion sizes were small, especially the veg - which was a small portion between 3 (pic below). I think value for money wasn't great but would definitely come back to try their main menu, which is what they do best.

Very lovely, good service. Lamb was delicious, everything else was a ‘ok’. Not amazing, not bad, just ok. I’d give it another go. The wine and cocktails were fab

Easily one of the best restaurants in Bristol. Food is inventive and exciting, while still being tasty and unpretentious. Service is excellent, and it's fairly priced too. Highly recommended.

We tried the lunch set here on a Saturday. £20 / 2 courses (small plate + large plate) £24 / 3 courses (the above + dessert) To conclude, we both love the large plates (roast quail and brill) more than the small plates (pork cheek and cured salmon) as the latter's flavour fell short. Maybe I expected too much from 'cooked over open fire'? The dessert, Millefeuille, was lovely. Worth trying. And the atmosphere, I do love the setting. However, when there 's a big group, even if they were sitting on the other side, it was still quite noisy that my partner couldn't hear what I was saying lol I understand there's not much the restaurant can do though. Hopefully, next time will be better!

Great Sunday roast will be returning.

Absolutely stunning food in a wonderful location. The brill was perfectly cooked and gave me a lot of inspiration

I'm lucky to have BANK as a local restaurant after a recent move, so decided to treat myself to 3 courses for £24 on a Wednesday lunchtime. The grilled mushroom salad was a perfect starter. The flavours were very well balanced and I could have eaten three courses of just that. For main I had the duck with sweet potato and cherry. I rarely choose duck and this was a real treat, rich but not overpowering. For dessert I had the chocolate torte which was delicious but too sweet for me. This is a criticism of my palette rather than the dish. Tragically as I was working it wasn't suitable to have wine, but I'll be back to take advantage of the bottles for sure! Excellent service and an all round great experience.

Stingey and expensive. Portions were very small, had a roast dinner and was served 1 small portion of veg between 3, asked for some more and they added £9 onto the bill.

One of the nicest meals I had in Bristol! 😍

Lovely service and atmosphere and some delicious imaginative food. First time here so took the small set plates sharing-option as an intro. Fabulous flavours but next time we will go for the large plate options for a lunch, as the sharing small plates are light. The virgin cocktails were delicious! We enjoyed it and will definitely be back

Superb local small plates restaurant. Everything was delicious, staff were great, and atmosphere was lovely. It won't be the cheapest meal you've had, but might just be the tastiest.

The restaurant was really welcoming, it is beautifully decorated and clean. The service was absolutely fantastic, no rush but always attentive. The four or us shared 8 small plates between us and two of us are vegan and there were great choices. Each dish was really, really tasty. We had bread for starters, this could have been a slightly more generous portion but even so was delicious. Unusually we had dessert and although there were just two choices, one was vegan so it worked for our group and both choices were sensational. The drinks menu has something for everyone. This was a really nice experience, the best we had had in a very long time and will return again very soon.

First visit and nice to find a restaurant on the South of Bristol without the need to get into traffic . A selection of small and a few large plates to choose from with an all small option as well. Mackerel,pork rillettes ,stunning barbecued mushrooms(worth an extra portion)and some excellent veggie choices. Short but excellent pudding choice ,try the panna cotta. The bread portion is very meagre but everything else was excellent and very attractive presentation. Efficient booking system with a choice of sit up at window or table seating.The sit up does give a chance to count the red light jumpers outside ! Friendly staff and steady service but no rush and a nice touch is leaving the menu with you in order to read full desciption as food is served.Decent wine list . We will return TOP TIP: The bus lane switches off in the evening so parking slots uphill from restaurant

Portions are on the small side. Otherwise delicious!

We tried Sunday Roast at the Bank and the food was exceptional! Every item on the plate was delicious! They really need to review their website though because we had my 4 year old with us and there was absolutely nothing that would have been suitable for a kid. Asking for ketchup was an offence of course 😅 Note to management - having a few high chairs doesn’t make the restaurant child friendly. Thinking up even just one simple option for children would mean that parents can enjoy the delightful food whilst the kids can have something to eat too. The waitresses were very friendly but it seemed like they have never fed a child before. Serving roasties in a bowl with a mall jug of gravy was a recipe for disaster… just put it on a plate.. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Such easy tweaks would make a huge difference! A real shame!

We turned up at 11:55 for a 12:00 booking, The place looked closed and the iron gates were barred, so we hung around in the rain for a few minutes then went into an empty restaurant. We weren’t allowed to sit at a table in the corner despite the empty restaurant the waitress who appeared to have a broom up her back was unmovable on this. The room is like a canteen with very high ceilings and no sound muffling so it’s like eating in a echoey church hall. We picked the lamb sharing plate imagining a joint arriving on a large plate that we would have to slice ourselves. It took ages to arrive and was a dinner plate with ready sliced very underdone tough lamb, 2 Yorkshire’s some purée and a piece of breadcrumbed lamb belly. The veg was in separate dishes. I had to send the peach dessert back as it was completely under ripe and inedible. The water they serve is straight out of the tap and smells very chlorinated. The waitress took the desert off the bill and we paid cash. Soon after we walked out the scowling waitress ran after us to ask if we’d paid the bill we said we left the cash on the table, to which she yelled ‘We don’t take cash’ There are no signs saying no cash and nothing on the menu. Frankly if I had known they don’t take cash I would never have booked. We left there feeling this is a canteen of can’ts Can’t sit at a table you choose Can’t filter their water Can’t cook lamb Can’t pick ripe peaches for a desert Can’t season your own food (no salt and pepper on tables) Can’t hold coffee cup as the coffee is overheated and has no handle on cup Can’t pay cash Small portions for Sunday lunch and very expensive Overall an underwhelming experience

15 quid for courgettes is all you need to know. And that's one of the three small plates you need to make it a meal. A p!ss take.

Absolutely delicious Sunday Roast for the family. Real pride taken in dishes. Friendly service and warm atmosphere. Highly recommended Extra marks for playing Gil Scott-Heron and Labi Siffre 😉

This place is so special, the attention to detail, unique flavours and customer service makes it in the top 10 places for sure. Thank you bank, see you soon x

Don’t go for Sunday lunch anywhere else - this is the business. You seriously need to have room for a dessert too. You won’t be disappointed - outstanding!

Bank is a top bristol restaurant with an ever changing menu and incredibly friendly staff. You have to keep coming back just to try the new dishes! Superb.

Had the pleasure of enjoying a delightful lunch at Bank. The food was exceptional, with mouthwatering flavors that exceeded my expectations. The cocktails were equally impressive, perfectly complementing the meal. The staff was friendly and provided excellent service, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Bank for a memorable dining experience.

Went for a coffee, but left wanting to try the food sometime soon.

Beautiful food made with passion, great cocktails and lovely service!

Woweeeee such incredible value and such amasing food! Sooooo soooo impressed. Absolutely blown away and will be back!

I've been looking for a restaurant like this for quite some time. Sunday lunch was beyond incredible with brilliant cocktail and wines menu. Every element of the food was perfect and the service was on point. A lively yet not overcrowded venue with great value. Can't wait to return.

Lovely atmosphere, great selection of food and very inspiring combinations.
