Baristas Coffee Collective in Bristol, City of

Top tier little coffee shop, great coffee, delicious ice cream (best affogato I've had) really friendly staff who are so accommodating to all needs. Well worth a visit!

Excellent coffee and great service! We stopped by on our way to the train station and were amazed by this lovely place. We’d definitely recommend it!

A great start to the day- a delicious almond croissant in contemporary surroundings. Staff were friendly and helpful and the prices were competitive.

Excellent coffee with staff who are knowledgeable about coffee and are happy to chat with you about their coffee to make sure you have the best experience. Do your taste buds a favour and visit a real coffee shop instead of the chains serving poor quality coffee, it’s a bit more expensive but worth it.

Meeting up with our daughter, she found "The Best Coffee Shop in the World". OMG - definitely the best Almond biscuits! Great vibe! Friendly staff & great coffee! What a find!

I think I've found my perfect coffee shop! Great tasting coffee, delicious food, served by staff who clearly have a passion for coffee and actually enjoy interacting with their customers. Fairly small indoor space if eating in, but a great atmosphere. Able to have a proper conversation with my companions as no music playing (something that invades almost all coffee shops these days in my experience). Only disappointment? It's about an hour away from my home town 🙁

Great coffee from lovely people! The place, although on the cozy side, has a fantastic vibe and the welcome is genuinely warm!

Nicest cappuccino my partner has ever had. Great quality coffee, lovely customer service and a lovely atmosphere

Probably the best egg and bacon sandwich I’ve had - locally sourced smoked bacon and the fluffiest sourdough bread from a nearby baker…what’s not to like? BTW, the coffee is made in one of only two Italian coffee machines in the UK and is off the scale in terms of depth and flavour. Well worth a trip on a Saturday morning!

What a find. Great coffee, tasty snacks and lovely people. Everything you need. generally busy with with a small army of regulars but service is always prompt and always with a smile and a chat.

Very well located, good environment, friendly staff, 5 stars cheesecake, cappuccino and latte. I really recommend

Friendly collective selling proper coffee at a reasonable price. My decaff really tasted of coffee unlike the dishwater I get at chains. A nice place to pause if walking into the centre from Temple Meads. You can sit outside weather permitting.

Great coffee, lovely light lunches and friendly staff. We visit here each time we're in Bristol because it's the best coffee we've found in the City. This time we fancied a light lunch after arriving at Temple Meads, and opted for the sausage roll on offer, which was HUUUUUGE, and an Oat Milk Latte. Lovely people running it who are chatty and friendly, even remembering us from our last visit to Bristol which was 2 months ago. Fabulous. See you on our way back home again tomorrow!

Good quality beans and a well made flat white. They offer you a choice of roasts. Several tables outside. Friendly service.

The coffee is as delicious as it ever was. A fancy new machine that George bought just before lockdown. Limited menu in current situation is 100% tasty. Friendly and at least as good as a French croque monsieur.

Friendly staff, great espresso and lovely giant amaretti biscuits. The rest of the food looks good, but I haven't felt the need to go off piste!

If you need a break from all the limitations and restrictions of lockdown then I suggest taking a walk through the centre of the lovey city of Bristol where you will find this gem of a coffee shop. The coffee is excellent and the cakes...

Smashing coffee and friendly staff as always! I discovered this gem cafe in 2013 and still going strong! Absolute balm to the soul drinking their coffee any time but it feels even more special during the lockdown!

I barely know where to start......the fabulous welcome, the amazing coffee or delicious cakes, the art on the walls.......this is now my favourite place in Bristol! And topped off with the nicest and most genuine staff I've ever met. Their kindness t myself and my...

Everything I wrote in 2013 still applies - now with a discount for keep cups. Warmth, happiness, sense of fun, clean surroundings, really consistent balanced coffee, served by bright, welcoming staff who were greeting me by name long before other chains started doing this as...

Been coming here for years and for all the coffee shops that have popped up in recent years it's by far still the best. The staff are just lush and you can just tell they all genuinely care about eachother and the customer.

I was greeted by two of the friendliest baristas I've ever met when I visited this place the other day. After finishing a really delicious coffee the bustling and cosy atmosphere made me stay much longer than I'd planned. See you again soon!

Popped in for a quick coffee earlier today, enjoyed my visit, the staff were friendly and it's a nice little coffee shop, would visit again and reccommend. Have a really great week everyone.

This coffee-house is clean, cosy and has a cool, casual approach. There's always local Art hung on the walls which gets changed fairly frequently, giving the place the Artsy independent vibe that we all love in Bristol! The staff are friendly and the coffee is...

Just off the plane from oz, and a bus from heathrow and a little disorientated so I thought I would pop into a cafe and came across this delightful little place. I thought I had lost my purse but they were so patient and helpful...

I managed to squeeze in a visit to this place (attracted by the TA reviews) after arriving in Bristol by train for an overnight stay along with my son who was due to arrive shortly afterwards from London. The flat white was excellent - and...

A lovely friendly independent coffee shop that offers a cracking cup of coffee. On top of the coffee the bacon sandwiches are top drawer and always served with fresh bread. There are a few tables and chairs probably enough to seat 20 people. A highly...

Was in Bristol for work and was looking for a good coffee shop. Reviews were great and it was round the corner from the office. Absolutely amazing coffee - best I’ve had from a shop. Recommend the hazelnut cappuccino. Really friendly staff.

Always difficult to know where to start in a strange town ... we came in here and asked for a filter. Very pleasant welcome, informal ambience and good coffee served in twin wall glasses. Good place to relax a while.

Baristas is a really special coffee shop for me. They're own blend espresso is really unique and I love it. Additionally they offer filter coffee, and regularly change the beans. Staff are really friendly, and the owner George is really passionate about what he does,...

I like smooth almost caramel tasting coffee. I don’t like the dark bitter “hitting you in the mouth” type of coffee. I asked for Colombian style Americano with milk and they gave me just that. Delicious homemade fruity flapjack thingy and really nice service. Can’t...

Called in here yesterday evening, before a long drive home after dropping our daughter off for University. Certainly found a little gem. Very friendly and welcoming owner, only too happy to give us the low down on Bristol, as well as serving up great coffee....

Heard about great things about the coffee. Just dropped in for a flat white. It’s really good coffee well done. I’m not local but would go again. Enjoyed it.

Friendly staff but un drinkable flat whites, too strong, too much foam and tasted like mud. Go elsewhere if you are looking for an Australian style flat white. No cafe art either. Disappointing.

One of the friendliest coffee houses in the city (maybe even the friendliest). Run by people who actually understand coffee, so not surprising it's the best in town. Great eats too. A tad off the beaten track, but well worth the walk over the bridge.

Really enjoyed the coffee here, could tell that the people working here take pride in what they do and the staff were all very friendly. Will come again!

Have I just had coffee of the year? - quite possibly! Stumbled on the Collective while killing time near temple meads station. What a find! You can tell it has a high reputation due to the queue and no wonder. Latte was just on the...

We are an Italian couple looking for our first breakfast in Bristol. This place is warm and you feel very welcome! Cappuccino is great and I do really appreciate the gluten free cake:) Definitely we'll come back soon.

A little oasis in the middle of Bristol's offices. The owner treats everyone has his friends. The coffee and tea are carefully prepared. We had bacon and egg sandwiches on locally baked sourdough. Great.!! There is DIY toast, local art on the walls and even...

Great coffee and cakes, really friendly staff, have soya milk and gluten free food. Highly recommend ill come back when I'll be back in bristol

Lovely coffee shop with great, reasonably priced good quality coffee and lots of good food-sweet and savoury. The chocolate brownies are amazing!! The staff are always lovely and it's a very welcoming atmosphere. The long queue every morning before work is testimony to how good...

We had a decent cup of coffee here recently enough. The place was filthy though - veeeeerry dirty - which surprised me as this place always makes the best lists of coffee places in Bristol. Surely the bar should be set a little higher than...

This is a small very friendly coffee shop close to the river in Bristol. It seems to have lots of regular customers and it is very reasonably priced. Basic seating but good atmosphere.

A great little coffee shop just opposite from my office. Great coffee, guaranteed to perk you up. Their homemade food is excellent, and ranges from soup to amoretti biscuits and mince pies.

Always a good atmosphere and always great coffee. The food is also nice but it's packed in the morning every morning for the coffee. An amazing ability to remember customers' names too....

Always worth a visit for a warm greeting, some cool music and a great cup of coffee. Avoid the chains and go to Baristas!!!

Very lucky to have this place just around the corner from my office. Excellent coffee, excellent food and lovely people! Would highly recommend over the big coffee chain.

Amazing coffee....just the thing to get me going in the morning. Never eaten here but the food does look good.

I really felt welcomed staff went out off there way to help coffee was great food great fabulous place definitely be back

Quite a basic set up if you want to compare to the major players in the high street. But better coffee served by real people who care about the coffee and you to a degree. Sadly seems to be populated by the wealthy yummy mummies,...

Very different and original place. They are passionate about what they do and knowledgeable about coffee. Well worth trying in Bristol. So much better than the tired coffee chains.

I regularly visit Baristas for their lovely loose leaf tea and tasty paninis and sandwiches, however I bought the most fantastic greek salad and thought I should tell everyone about it: generous portion, delicious flavours and very fresh tasting food - and the (tastes like)...

Best coffee and Bacon sarnies in Bristol. Good service, obviously genuinely passionate about coffee and customer service. Worth the slightly higher price you pay!

Visited Bristol for a business meeting and walked into town past this place. It was very busy so I popped in and grabbed a takeaway coffee. Service was very quick and the flavour was deep and rich, a delicious blend. Only thing you might mention...

I almost walked past this small cafe, or coffee house. It's set back just a little off the main Victoria street, on the left hand side as you approach the city's Bristol Bridge. There was no signage (it's painted dark blue on the outside) and...

Friendly neighbourhood coffee shop - as demonstrated by the number of regulars who come in every day for their caffeine fix

Without doubt the best coffee in Bristol by far !! Consistently excellent superb flavour served to you by the friendliest staff ever 😄😃 I can't recommend this place enough it's so good ,also great teas hot choc , sandwiches and cakes and also forgot to...

This place makes an excellent cup of coffee right in the centre of Bristol. Very friendly staff and a great product.

Great service, and really great coffee. Beautiful environment - lovely artwork on the walls, interesting furniture, and aesthetically pleasing crockery. Didn't have any food, but the bacon smelt delicious! Be aware - doesn't take cards. Will definitely be returning to support this independent shop.

I've been going here since I used to work around the corner around 8/9 years ago. I can't think of anywhere I've had a better coffee and the sandwiches are superb. This business is a great example of providing quality, using quality ingredients and not...

No need for my usual elaborate review so here goes. Simply: Best bacon sandwiches in Bristol I have found to date. Outstanding Coffee. GO VISIT!!!!!

Some of the best coffee in Bristol, fabulous food (esp bacon sarnies) and lovely staff. A must if you're looking for lunch or coffee in the area

Get there early on the days they do bacon sandwiches or you'll be disappointed. Thick, tasty bacon on soft white bread mmmm. Oh and the coffee is just great too.

Whenever I visit Bristol, this is the first place I stop, for a coffee, and I'm never disappointed. I take soya milk in coffee and they always handle it properly. Independant too, so great.

Very simple place. Had a great coffee and a great bacon sandwich. Really chunky bacon felt like it was straight off a farm. Guy on the till was excellent and happy to chat. The 5 people running around making coffees were impressive to watch!

This coffee collective is very popular, when I got there about 11am this week it was quite full with people, and there was quite a wait to get your coffee. However when it arrived it was delicious, I had an extra shot, and of course...

Enjoyed my trip to their coffee emporium mixing as it does the frenetic pace of a city bar and a very decent cup of coffee. Pricing is good and staff were good fun.

This is a small lovely coffee shop with free wifi. It is really good for relaxing. However, it is better for a quick visit as there is no toilet. I've tried their Cortado and a cup of green tea. The coffee was perfect. They provide...

Superb little coffee shop with the best homemade Bakewell slice I've had in a long time. As I'm going to be working across the road next year I will be becoming a regular.

I agree with all of the glowing reviews - great coffee - not too far down the 'citrus' line that many are going for and great bloke making it. Highly recommend.

The Best Coffee Shop, Great Owner, and THE BEST COFFEE, we were in Bristol for two days, and found the shop hours before leaving, we were made very welcome, great atmosphere, and very friendly, we will be BACK !

Grab coffee here frequently - great coffee well made. Great brownies as well - about twice the size of those titchy little ones you get elsewhere Haven't eaten here ( as in a meal) but the whole place has this great vibe - I simply...

always made welcome to this cozy place nice choice of teas/coffee menu changes daily located in fianancial area of bristol easy walk from the centre and st nicks markets

Great coffee, great atmosphere and the staff are all very helpful and knowledgeable. Would definitely be a regular if I was a little closer.

I love this place, freindly staff efficiently serve the my favourite coffee in Bristol. A good rich roast is served up in a non-corporate manner. Don't be put off by the queues they clear them fast. I've not had much food here, but enjoyed all...

We have been patronising this coffee house for over 12 years, sadly not daily now as our jobs changed location, but we still visit. All life is here, the staff are like friends, they know your name and what you generally drink. The blends are...

Cracking coffee which is a good job really. Cordato in and am americano to go, perfect. The prices are lower than any of the sterile coffee chains too. Got to mention the exceptional bacon sandwiches, very cool DIY toast and the best chocolate brownie I've...

The staff here are great and clearly really care about coffee, the customers and the business. Great coffee and very friendly service. Love it!

This little independently run coffee shop is located in the central business district of Bristol. High quality product served by smiley and cheerful baristas. Perfect coffee and wonderful Latte Art! Congratulations guys. I will always visit when in the area!

Create coffee like craftsmen. A little gem. Less than 5 mins walk from the Civil Justice centre so v handy for us legal beagles in need of a proper drink!

Came across Baristas Coffee Collective by chance on our way to Temple Meads station. Looked like it ticked all the boxes for an artisan coffee place, so was ready to be bitterly disappointed! But no, my flat white was excellent. Strong without being unpleasantly bitter...

I didn't try the food here (although their soups did sound very tempting) but the coffee is amazing, and it's got a lovely relaxed and friendly atmosphere. There are no toilets on site which is a bit of a pain, but apparently they've got some...

A small coffee shop with the best double espresso I've had in Bristol with a real friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome and a real buzz. Will definitely be returning on my next visit.

This has to be one of the best places for coffee in the Bristol area. So much better than the various chain brands. The staff are always friendly and take time to explain their offerings to you. I also purchased some of their beans so...

Not great coffee very happy and help full staff, I pick up a coffee on my way to work and also on Saturday in my way to football

The Bacon here is incredible. The Coffee is even better. The Staff are super friendly. Highly recommended. Don't bother with anywhere else.

I love this cafe, I often go in before work yes it can be busy but that just shows its good. All the staff are friendly & welcoming & personally I think they do the best coffee in Bristol.

This place is really close to my office so I sometimes pop in for lunch. The food is great tasting and made with good quality ingredients, the only downside is it's a little on the expensive side so I normally only go here for a...

I work very close by so I am able to get coffee here whenever I like. What a treat! The coffee/hot chocolate/choice of tea is excellent. It represents good value for money and the staff are always friendly. You don't need to look any further...

In a city well catered for in terms of mainstream and chain coffee shops Baristas stands out as a must visit to any visitors to the city and as a regular spot for those lucky enough to be local. Service is excellent, ambiance relaxed ,...

Visited as it was near my hotel and I saw the reviews here. The coffee is superb; as good as I've had anywhere. However, it's mostly a takeaway place for people on their way to work. I had a chocolate twist that very good and...

I've always loved coffee but living in Swansea didn't provide you with any choice of a good coffee. Since I've moved to Bristol, I've tried as many of the coffee shops as I can. The bean in Baristas Coffee Collective is not only smooth and...

It took a while to find a proper decent bacon sandwich near Temple Meads - and this is the place! Delicious thick cut smoky bacon, with crusty soft [Hart's I think] bread. YUM Plus the guy making the sandwiches noticed I was in a big...

I love Baristas, visit (very) often and both the drinks and service are unbeatable. Cheaper than many competitors too!

We have been going to Baristas since they were previously located on the Centre in Bristol and we continue to return because the beans are great! The coffees made by George and his team are the best around, I am only sorry that I don't...

In my humble, coffee-loving opinion, this is and has always been the best coffee in Bristol. Lovely staff and food too.

It's the combination of friendly knowledgeable staff, a relaxed informal setting and of course superb coffee that set this place apart. The queues every morning are a telling sign that this is the place to go for your morning fix. Even dog owners are welcome!...

This coffeehouse is located in a medieval building dating from 1456 in the old Parish of St Thomas in the Redcliffe district of the city. It is a busy shop with many office workers collecting their take away coffees. I had an excellent latte which...

The coffee beans are roasted to their own recipe, the best tasting in the city. The food menu is not large, but everything on it is really good, I've tried it all! Bacon sandwiches are served until 11.30, if you want one get there before...

Coffee is out of this world, particularly compared to the chains and I didn't think I would enjoy the bacon sandwich which came with instructions as to which bread to have and which sauce to use but it was genius. Unfortunately they only serve food...
