Bonzo Lounge in Bath and North East Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We came for their Tuesday tapas deal. The food was delicious and it was great to be able to get all day brunch, Eggs Benedict for dinner was a game changer! Even after that and 2 rounds of tapas we were tempted to get a third round (we gave in!), and the food obviously did not disappoint! The staff were friendly, would definitely come again!

A decent range of beers and ciders (£6ish per pint). Food menu has a range of options and caters for kids.

Sunday morning popped in for large breakfast, food and service was great, we frequently visit the Bonzo lounge to meet up with family. Nice place to go. UPDATE I have been back several times now, they have a great gluten free menu and are well clued up on it. Highly recommend 👌 👍

Very nice place, friendly and quick staff, food pretty decent too

Sat outside with my 3 lovely ladies and enjoyed myself.

I had the bang bang chicken, I was worried it might be spicy so I asked a member of staff, she replied she was the same it's not hot at all. They do sprinkle chillies on top so asked for them to be removed to be sure. I'm glad I ordered this because it was so tasty and flavourful and not spicy. Definitely recommend it

I like this place great foot quality and atmosphere

Not really sure why I'm reviewing this place again with the same comment. I've done it two or three tines before and nothing has been done! The same old reply will undoubtedly be cut and pasted to this. Why, oh why, do we have to subjected to the sight of waiting staff's belly buttons!!!! It's a real turn off for me but, as I said above, nothing will be done. I don't think I will be going back again Oh yes, our food was nice!

Nice place to sit outside with plenty of attentive staff

Just walk in and grab a seat. Place mats are menus. Scan the QR code to order and pay. Food comes in good time and as ordered. One server had a crop top on with exposed midriff and belly button. This may put some off but it was fluff free so couldn't see issues from my perspective. The decor is post industrial and therefore very sounds empty and echos. But overall a nice relaxed experience. One should note, if you have allergies you need to order in person at the counter informing staff of your allergies.

Good, dog friendly bar and restaurant.

Went in with friends for a few beers. Great atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely asset for the local area.

Not up to it's usual standard. Come here quite often and this was the worst visit. Ordered a hot chocolate. The one they brought tasted like coffee, as if they'd used the same spoon. Took it back, they brought another - it was stone cold. Took that one back, they brought another which was BOILING hot, clearly taking the pi$$. That one barely tasted of chocolate, was pretty much hot milk. Didn't feel like I could take that one back, they'd made it quite clear what they thought. Food came, 1 out of the 2 poached eggs on the Lounge Eggs was basically a hard boiled egg rather than poached. The buttermilk chicken was rock hard round the edges and inedible. But like I said, couldn't take it back after the hot chocolate stunt. All in all, very disappointing.

Called in for a drink bit disappointed they did not have Fanta Lemon the coffee and service was excellent

First time customer and was really impressed with the food and the service

Always happy with The Lounge. Reliable menu and decent service is standard.

The chips are really nice. They have really nice colouring things. - from 5 year old

Great food staff very helpful. Will visit again.

Very loud. Service was quick but food was average.

Great place to go during the day or evening. Child and dog friendly.

No atmosphere, food orders wrong, literally a small spoonful of coleslaw. We were amazed but didn't want to make a fuss as it was an 18th birthday. Two of us did not get our food until some had finished! No explanation and no apology.

Just arrived from the Airport. Dead tired and hungry, i got there and i found a very nice Place, cozy and comfortable, for couples, families, singles or Friends as well. Outdoor tables too. Food Is food Quick and plenty

Very busy, sooooooo many kids and super noisy. We had a drink and left before eating

Visits a few times a year, but I think the portion sizes are getting smaller

Food is always high quality and tasty. Service is fine, nothing special, no complaints. The atmosphere changes in the evening which is a nice change and there is great parking nearby for free!

Nice clean and friendly. Found food great and excellent quality. I am going back soon. Brilliant service thanks

This is not a gin glass.... Best part of a tenner for a G&T, come on FFS. And your Cruz Campo is flat too

Always loved the tapas and friendly staff and service. I tried the shakshuka with chorizo. Wow what an amazing dish. Absolutely loved the bonzo. Went back and had the flatbreads. Boom bang on. So delicious 😋

I have dined at Bonzo Lounge in Keynsham on previous occasions and have always been pleased with the quality of the food and service. However, during my most recent visit, I ordered two salads, one of which was the Chicken, Bacon, and Avocado salad. I also requested an additional piece of chicken, bringing the total cost of my meal to £32.50. When my salads arrived, one looked visually appealing while the other appeared to be lacking in comparison. The additional chicken I had requested was simply placed on the side of the salad, resulting in a noticeable imbalance in the dish. After sharing my concerns with a member of the staff, the salad was taken back to the kitchen and returned to me with a more substantial appearance. However, upon tasting the salad, I noticed that it contained an excessive amount of rocket to compensate for the initial error. Despite the overall flavor of the meal being enjoyable, it was evident that there was a lack of attention to detail in this particular instance. I chose not to escalate my complaint further as I did not want to further disrupt my dining experience.

We went here for my breakfast because I didn't have any before we left

Had lunch at BONZO Keynsham on the weekend with friends. Ordered the Vegan Moroccan Aubergine Flatbread. It was amazing. Hubby suggested we get a take away for dinner, immediately i wanted the same as the weekend, could not eat it. It was squashed into a round container on its side, not chickpea, mint sauce or pomegranate in sight. No hummus, avocado so hard it could have taken a tooth. And to top it off it seemed to be in two parts almost as though they took half of one and put it on top of the other, when lifting it, it was just flatbread underneath! Disgusting!

I find the pace very noisy the acoustics are anitghmare

we like Monday free wine after 5p.m.and Tuesday Tapas and my husband likes the beefburgers there.xx

As usual was a really good food

Breakfast was good but the table was super dirty, all cutlery had food on, and I literally couldn't hear a thing. I had avocado smeared on my hashbrowns (in a dish which should not have contained avocado) so I would maybe worry for people with allergies! The staff seemed super rushed off of their feet so probably could've done with a few more staff on shift!

Good venue, staff friendly, tables not cleared enough though. Children too noisy and disturbing the tranquil atmosphere.

This was my first visit to Bonzo Lounge, I have visited lots of the group’s other other cafe bars. Today was my first sight of the new menu. I had the poached eggs on muffin with Hollandaise sauce, looked good, tasted fab. Service was good. Premises were clean and fresh throughout. I have no objections to well behaved dogs in the premises. However today had rather a disappointing atmosphere due to poorly behaved dogs with their frequent barking being both loud and thundering through the square room.

A late breakfast with friends and family, the food and drinks for the four of us was just under £60, not bad.

I thought it was very noisy and expensive. Over £16 for a fish finger sandwich, half a beer and a coffee. There were Dogs everywhere. Why can’t we have moderation. I waited for ages to be served whilst 3 staff discussed how to pour a drink. I would go again but only when they have a deal on.

Excellent tasting food, just marginally underwhelmed with the quantity, lovely atmosphere, staff friendly and efficient, but 10 minutes after sitting down and ordering via the app a member of staff stuck a reserved ticket on the table from 6 o'clock, which gave us 40 mins to receive and eat our dinner, not least it was a push, luckily for the staff we weren't having a sweet, but we were moved whilst finishing our drinks. I must reiterate that it was an excellent atmosphere with wonderfully tasty food.

Didn't stay to busy and far too noisy

Good service clean,service good pleasant surroundings

First time going and I was impressed. Food was very nice and they serve an all day breakfast! Good selection of drinks - will go again

It's a really good place , next to the civic carpark so it's easy to park.Nice airy building , fairly busy but coffee's and cakes were ordered via app and delivered promptly. Dog friendly so our furry one loved it and got spoiled by polite parents asking if their kids could say hello.First visit as live out of the area but will visit again and highly recommend

Food and service was good. Very busy and loud.

Went for Tapas Tuesday for the first time in a while - we think went mid 2023 last and we were regulars pre covid twice a month at least. We used to enjoy chatting to the ‘Bagman’ and also watching the monthly ‘meeting of the brave alternative folk’. Cleanliness has dropped and with so many staff it’s a surprise given you order via QR these days and so no six/seven deep queues as there used to be. Tables are left with uncollected glasses and plates for ages and indeed in the hour we were there early evening three used tables were unable to be used for new guests as they had not been cleaned. The big change and huge huge negative was the lack of bread with the Tapas. You used to get several pieces between you in order to ‘mop’ the bowls and eat the humus from. It was part and parcel of the deal that was under £10 pre Covid. We were gobsmacked that the bread is no more as we had wanted to get back in Tapas Tuesday a couple of times a month once more. Only reason I gave a two and not a one was that the Tapas was tasty and the lady who delivered it was very pleasant indeed. Just a shame half the sauces were left in the bowls as we weren’t up for finger dipping to clean them. Real shame and I hope the owners review this massive backwards step as I wonder if others have stopped going for this very reason. I would wager based on food We saw coming from the kitchen that your tapas turnover has dropped dramatically since pre-Covid times.

Lovely meal and amazing service, staff here are great! Thankyou so much!

Great service from everyone and the food is beyond delicious. Top spot!

Nice to see someone with some knowledge of 1960's obscure musicians album titles. The Bonzo Dog Doodah Band would be proud. Menu items should be named after track titles to make it perfect!

Came Saturday with my cousins who don't see often all in our 60s. First complaint sat us by kitchen door childrens area when there was 3 other tables we could have sat. Couldn't hear eachother talk. Ordered our food same time. One meal came out really quick within 5mins*was breakfast) mine came out 10mins after pulled beef rice dish.. half hr someone asked if our meal was OK which we replied no one of our Partt hadn't had there meal. It was poacher egg on toast with hollandaise sauce mushrooms not difficult? They did go get get it saying ticket hadn't been done. Didn't offer to remove it from bill won't be back.

Always come here for the gluten free big lounge breakfast. Busy in evenings though so good to ring and check if you're booking for more than 2!

Really tasty food, should have ordered a side but it would have filled up a regular person. Lost a star for atmosphere due to how loud it was.

First time here in the evening,so romantic I wish I had been with a woman,had to settle for a burger which was very nice

Very happy with the lounge restaurants

Reasonable prices. Food was tasty and hot.

I come up to stay with my sister and this is definitely our go to place. It can get really busy but it's worth holding out for a table x

We always have a lovely time here. There is absolutely nothing to fault - everything is great. Highly recommend.

We visited The Bonzo Lounge for a late weekend brunch. The restaurant was completely packed with customers, many with children and had a great atmosphere. The staff were helpful and working hard to deliver food and drink to the tables. Even with the busy service all our food was brought to the table within 10 minutes. I had the Miami Brunch for the first time and it was excellent. My wife had three tapas dishes which were well cooked and most enjoyable. Great venue in Keynsham with great staff and food.

Great food, at a reasonable price. Lots of options for those with intolerances and allergies.

Excellent food, very good service. The bacon fat on my plate was from my companions 🍔 burger, for my dog, who was sitting patiently next to me 😀

Very busy and I can see why! Fantastic food, great service (despite the business) and well catered for our little 9 month old with high chairs etc. we’ll be back!

Excellent and very good tapas lovely atmosphere on Christmas eve

An ok dining experience, though the service wasn't quick and it is a very noisy environment so don't expect to hold in depth conversations when you eat or drink here. The food is off a high quality. Drinks can be ordered at the bar or via a QR code which takes you to the website. Ordering though this manner did seem to have a speedy response.

Always gopd service and solid food!

Nice food and pleasant staff, not keen on ordering on an app though

The food wasn't as good as previously and smaller portions than before. The cocktails were mostly ice and prices were more. It was very busy when we arrived then by 10.30pm was too quiet. Need an area where live music could be played to bring more people in after pubs close.

Busy & very noisy..OK if you are under 40 I expect food was OK but not outstanding

Arrived on a Sunday with no booking, wet and muddy with our dog. Found a table, ordered food via our phones scanning the QR code. Everything arrived promptly and was yummy. Raided the games and colouring in for the little one, happily entertained for a couple of hours. Brilliant ☺️

Lovely atmosphere. Delicious food

So noisy! The acoustics are terrible!

Finally! they make the lattes look like it's worth the amount they charge. lol for a while I was put off by it.

Lovely, big place with friendly, helpful staff. A HUGE gluten free menu with loads of great options!

Was there 2 years ago..to day I had breakfast..very enjoyable experience 👍👍👍🍷🍷☕☕☕☕👀☕

Anywhere you can get a full English breakfast any time of the day is great in my books. It’s just a pity that it can be very noisy, especially on quiz night when the speakers are far too loud.

A lot better since my last review, better idea waiting to be seated, saves a free for all. Wife loved the hot chocolate.

Lovely place, table service from the app. Not able to book which is actually better! Had the Miami breakfast which could have been a little bigger but was really tasty!

Not one of the cheapest breakfast I've had. But then again the price I had paid was well worth it the food was lovely. The picture shows two breakfast but there was three of us 👍

Always very busy, great food and excellent service

Visited again for the second time . Fab 👌

Great pub quiz on a Sunday night to go with your dinner

Great place to meet up with family & friends...all welcome including the dog! Parking close by at Ashton Way car pay. Free after 6pm. Good selection of food to choose from. Really swift service via the table app which you were able to adapt your choices. My sister requested some balsamic vinegar and, although they didn't have any in the kitchen, Ollie, our server, went out of his way to go and get some from a near by store. What a superstar ⭐️ Food was delicious too.

Great place to go for a drink and/or food. Relaxing atmosphere.

It used to be a great place for a family lunch nice food, great service.We have eaten here quite a few times, unfortunately the food has gone down the hill, It's dry, greasy and some flavours are confusing. It's a chain and we even had the same dishes in Weymouth recently and it was delicious there. Won't come back even though atmosphere and service was excellent.

Unless you want a burger, the rest of the menu is not that attractive, a number of chicken meals were unavailable, disappointing. Atmosphere is somewhat "rustic " If you don't order via the app, which is a really good idea, you have to go to the bar to order. Waiters bring out the food as it is ready from the kitchen

The service is great, and staff are very friendly and can’t do enough to help you. Bonzo is an ideal place to go with kids, young and old. The noise that younger ones can make, is absorbed into the background. They have a children’s menu that doubles as a drawing mat. Food for both children and adults covers most people’s tastes. The quality is okay, and comes quickly. Menu doesn’t change much , so can be a bit repetitive if you visit multiple times.

Usually good food sevice, friendly staff and atmosphere.

I grabbed a paper menu and sat myself on the patio and didn't realize I was supposed to order online for like 20 minutes. Once I figured that out everything was great. Tapas Tuesday special with house wine is the jam.

Met a lovely women there on my first perfect date made even better by friendly staff and great food and drinks, highly recommended the tapas selection

Excellent food and great prices. Staff are ways polite and service is excellent.

Complicated to order the spaghetti carbonara was awful the other food ok

Brilliant place, always accommodating an always get a table and have a fantastic gluten free menu! Also child and dog friendly 😃

Always thriving and bustling. Great food and staff are amazing!

Had a lovely meal 3 meals were all good but one meal was a little over cooked so they refunded and bought out a new meal that was all good and then on top of that to show great customer service they gave us a free round of drinks on the house

Excellent lunch, not expensive. laid back atmosphere. Music perhaps a little loud. Sofas and books for those perhaps wanting just a coffee and sanctuary. Small mix up in the order- they could not have been more apologetic- replaced it and offered a drink on the house.

Nice place for a meal and drink. Reasonable prices only thing background music is too loud difficult to have a conversation.

Always good service nice food great atmosphere

The venue was very clean the service was good all the staff smiled when they served you. The food was very good we will definitely be going back

Very very noisy, dog barking, kids running around and screaming so not the best dining experience but the food was nice. They sold me a dessert and forgot to serve it to me, when I went to ask where it was as my companion had been served theirs, they had totally missed it and had to look it up on the till and then told me they'd run out. We went at 6 so if you want quieter it may be worth going later.

Drove 120 miles to meet with family for brunch, the restaurant was very humid and busy. Our waiter knocked over a full glass of apple juice over me, completely soaking my shirt, trousers, shoes and dog. He left us to clear it up, saying he hadn’t done that in a long time. Barely an apology and didn’t revisit to see how I was. By the time we had cleared the mess, having asked someone to mop the floor (they used paper towels, so it remained sticky), the food was Luke warm. When the table was cleared, the new waiter (the first one avoided us) took the plates in silence not asking how I was or if we enjoyed the food. The apple juice was replaced by an orange juice… and no mention of an apology. I then had to buy some new clothes to wear for the rest of the day, even my underwear was soaked. I know accidents happen, but the staff cleared didn’t know what to do and didn’t even offer free drinks or desserts. They didn’t seem to care at all.

Really lovely place that is very child and dog friendly. Had the most delicious shakshuka and coffee. Will deffo come back if I'm next in the area.
