Fed 303 in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fed has grown from a seed - a teeny tiny cafe open just a few short days a week to a super-popular rip-roaring trader with three sites - which is great in terms of business success and deserves a huge well done. The food is still lovely and the coffee possibly the best on the GR - however - it's becoming a victim of its own success. The portions are much, much smaller, the queues build up quickly, and the wait for food can be long. I went for breakfast this week and, although it was early and still quiet, I waited half an hour for a bowl of overnight oats to join my - by then cold - coffee. And that's after having to ask twice how long it was going to be. The server was apologetic but it's a real shame and Fed should be careful of losing loyal, local custom.

This place is great, I've been twice now to the one on Gloucester Road and even when it's really busy the staff always manage to seat you and everyone is so lovely and friendly! One waitress was even managing to serve us with her arm in a sling, what a trooper. The food is all delicious and the chai's so good we each bought a bottle of their homemade syrup. Would love it if the Cotham one could run the whole hot menu but understandably they can't at the moment due to size.

Amazing food and amazing staff. We ordered two bacon brioche buns, a side of halloumi and a side of coleslaw between us and all of which were unreal. The chai lattes were also yummy (that yummy I bought a bottle of the chai syrup to take home) Would definitely return if I'm ever in Bristol again. Go go go!

Been to Fed a few times when I can get a table! Now that it is a few doors down at number 313 (a larger space with an outside eating area) there is more room but it still gets very, very busy. Usually we love the breakfasts....especially the eggy bread but the last 2 times we have eaten there, everything seemed overcooked....halloumi was practically burned and roasted tomatoes disintegrating. I had the streaky bacon hot bun but the bacon was so overcooked it was hard to eat.. It wasn't a very busy morning when we were there, a weekday. Whoever is in charge of the kitchen needs to ensure the food that goes out to the tables is cooked properly. Other than that the cakes, coffee, etc...all excellent and the staff professional and friendly.

Great food and brilliant coffee but very busy. It can’t get really crowded in here, but only because it is extremely popular. The variety of food is brilliant and all fresh. The cinnamon buns are exceptional

The food is high quality, tasty and there is something for everyone. They make good coffee and have a wide range of sweet treats including GF. The staff are lovely and the water provided at your table is in a bottle containing cucumber and mint and is delicious! Can’t fault this place. It is usually busy and you might have to wait a bit for a seat, but it is really worth it!

The food is delicious BUT the portion sizes seem smaller (I had the toastie and it was quite a bit smaller than it was last time I had it a few months ago) and the prices have gone up. So although the food tastes good, it no longer feels like good value for money which is a shame because I live locally and want to support local businesses. A personal opinion perhaps but I don't like the open counter with the food so close to the people queuing and no glass screen to protect the food from people's coughs/sneezes/hair.

We loved the experience....FED was recommended by our friend Anna from FIG. We had delicious cakes and flavourful coffee. We sat outside, but our waitress kept a weather eye on us and we were brought inside when the rain began to fall! We were well looked after and will definitely visit again! Many thanks

We’re frequent visitors here as we live on Staple Hill. We come here for lunch, brunch, coffee, snacks, just any time. Lovely atmosphere and staff always smiling and explaining things for you. Free water bottles flavoured with greens. Kids & prams friendly. Excellent sandwiches, salads, toasties, cakes, pastries. Highly recommended.

Amazing Special. So tasty. Like a shakshuka. Delicious. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff. Good coffee. Not speciality coffee. Perfect for a light lunch and coffee We drove here from near London and chose to come straight here for lunch then wander round. You can park on the side streets or on some parts of the main road.

FED 303, or is it 313, in Gloucester Road. I'm a frequent customer here. Their salads are legendary, always good with the seasonal tart or frittata. Often some really imaginative specials. Service good. Nice little terrace out the back. BUT, BUT, BUT..., every time I go in, all those wonderful cakes, salad bowls, etc so close to the public. Their plates are overhanging the edge of the counter, people queueing or waiting for their takeaways are right on top of all this food. Sometimes brushed by hair or coats. Please rearrange this, put up some hygiene screens. If this means you have to display fewer products or it's harder for your staff to access then that's a small price to pay in this post-pandemic world. I see from the Council's web site that FED is still awaiting its food hygiene inspection. I hope this gets challenged.

I can’t get enough of this place! I’ve been to the Fishponds branch quite a few times now and the food never disappoints! The sandwiches are unreal (I love the Brie one), the sausage rolls are sooo yummy and that Tiramisu cake is amazing! Couldn’t recommend this spot enough!

Well, first of all, it's now Fed 313 - they seem to have moved a few doors along the road. I was only there for coffee - nice espresso - but there looked to be nice things on the menu. I sat outside in the yard - not really a garden - very pleasant in the sunshine. Excellent friendly and efficient service from the staff. I don't usually give five stars if I haven't eaten, but I will this time

The food was nice enough but felt overpriced for what it was. The cafe was very busy and there was a long queue to order our food. Staff seemed quite harassed.

They were incredibly busy when we arrived but we had reserved a table so they promptly took us to our seats. We were in the lovely sunlit courtyard at the back of the cafe/ restaurant with simple but comfortable furniture, and the staff quickly took our order. the food was tastefully presented and full of flavour and the service was friendly and knowledgable with the staff able to suggest alternatives and make recommendations. I really enjoyed my poached eggs with avocado and toast and the rest of our party were equally happy. Will definitely visit again!

Lunch delivered on Food Stuff. Tasty and healthy! Excellent vegetarian meals. Would order again. Frittata and salad bowl.

Don’t get me wrong, the food is delicious. However, I bought three small salad pots today. I asked for a small pot of each salad. As such, this cost me £15 which I thought was a little expensive but I figure three full pots. Only when I got home I realised they are all half full. I have previously bought a large salad pot which was about £8 but at least it was full. Had I dispensed these three salads into the larger pot they would not even fill it. It was bagged so assumed there was not a problem. I am all for supporting local business but this is not okay.

To be honest I can't see what separates this brunch place. Menu choice was OK , we had the salad bowl. Heavy on the dressing and overpriced. No one came to check on us to ask how our food was. It was small inside and the problem with having the food open on the counter is that the staff are forever pushing in front of customers queuing to get to the food - without so much as an excuse me!

I love, love, love this little cafe! Amazing cakes that actually make you feel satiated and very happy :) Lots of GF options. Had the tahini brownie, yum!! Love the extra little touches of the water bottles with cucumber and mint, pretty and refreshing. Very...

No wonder this places is always busy. Their yallah coffee is just AMAZING. Breakfast is great in here and the cakes excellent. Glad that there is such a place around the area

Great stop off for post Xmas excess! Super salad and pasty plus sour dough like crumpets! Will be back! Coffee is excellent.

Such a lovely place on fishponds high street. So many tasty options and the food and staff really are 5 star!! I have marked this down to a 4 star as the one thing that does stop me coming back is the openness to the...

Lunchtime on a Saturday afternoon, sun coming through the window, window seat, sausage roll and a coffee. What more could you want?

Awesome food! Had a delicious brunch here and my only regret was not leaving enough room to try one of the cakes 😂 Really good coffee too, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. We’ll be back 👍

Excellent visually! Quality food and taste. It all tasted as good as it looked. Very friendly young lady that served me. This was my first visit but I will be back.

My daughter lives in Bristol and comes here all the time so today she invited me for lunch.I fell in love with the place the moment I walked in. The smiley faces, running round like honey bees, greeting you at the counter. The display of...

Cotham Hill FED Love FED. Amazing cakes - the carrot, walnut & passion fruit cake was the best I’ve eaten anywhere!!! Great choice of drinks. Lovely service. We were there quite late on BH so we were lucky enough to be given some take away...

A new coffee, breakfast, brunch and lunch cafe has opened in Fishponds and after we'd visited it we felt fed - which is just as well given that Fed is the business's name. You walk in and are greeted by such a vast array of...

Wonderful breakfast today - terrific, interesting food and friendly service. Felt the love! Thank you Fed 303.

So glad a friend recommended this cute cafe!The food is incredible- fortunately the very helpful staff (Phoebe (?) and Team) suggested which cakes I should to try as there were SO many to choose from! Highly recommend the asparagus tart too. So nice to find...

I thought this breakfast was so good - one of the best I’ve had in a cafe and reasonably priced as well. Also took some cakes and blondies to eat later and they were all amazing. Lovely staff as well.

This is a bustling busy little cafe, with eats and a ranbge of hot drinks. They use Yallah beans, and there are no further coffee choices apart from the range of lattes and the like which I despise! Avoid mid morning when they are mothers...

A fairly compact café and bakery on the popular Gloucester Road strip, seating is limited with just two or three tables either side of the central walkway. Most people seemed to be popping in for takeaways and there was a steady stream of comings and...

Absolute Gem! Whilst visiting Bristol we found this lovely cafe. Great food. Lovely service. Bought some cakes to take home and all of them tastes good!!! Will definitely visit again here.

Excellent quality of food. Massive selection of cakes. We'll definitely be back. Quick and efficient service. Friendly staff. The tahini brownie was delicious!

One of my all time fav coffee places in Bristol. I love everything about this place. Friendly staff, excellent coffee, amazing food and yummy cakes. So happy when they opened up after lockdown 1. A go to for a pick me up takeaway. Just miss...

I have an emotional attachment to this coffee shop. the staff are all wonderful and friendly. Their service paired with the gorgeous coffee and array of treats available makes going to my local coffee shop a wellness activity. I always leave feeling happy!

This always used to be a nice cafe but since lockdown, this place has developed into the best cafe in Bristol. Unbelievable cakes and pastries including the Caramel Blondie which I think may be the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. Amazing...

I’ve become a bit of a regular here, popping along to pick up a nutritious and tasty lunch 2 or 3 times a week since working from home, and have never been disappointed! Today I tried out the new vegan Thai curry, which wasn’t on...

Finally, a cafe in Bristol that ticks all my boxes. Delicious nourishing food Friendly attentive staff. Generous portions. Nourishing smoothies. Wonderful range of vegan/ gluten free dishes and desserts. I'm totally in love with this cafe.

We have enjoyed many take away lunches with Fed 303 and they are fresh, flavoursome and generously portioned. The salads are the amongst the best I’ve eaten as are the sausage rolls and frittatas. I’d also recommend the yoghurt - sheep’s milk - thick and...

This great cafe has adapted to the new Covid rules and is offering take away salads and other foods. Call in an order or pop in and ask. Had a salad box for lunch. £4.50 and it was awesome. Totally full.

A huge thank you from all the people at NHSBT who enjoyed your wonderful cakes this week. As we work in the background supplying hospitals it is not often that we feel recognized. Your amazingly good treats made us feel loved and appreciated, especially vegan...

I love this cafe. The team here take no shortcuts and it shows. All of the cakes are gorgeous, fresh and most importantly delicious. I'm slowly working my way through the savoury menu and nothing has disappointed so far. They know good coffee, and are...

The cakes here are just amazing - loads of interesting options for the gluten free, vegan or dairy free plus the coffee is delicious. Always service with a smile - and you can tell they’ve put their heart and soul into it. Imagine they’ll move...

Toasties!! I’ve had their cheese toastie. The black garlic aioli toastie. The Bombay chicken toastie. Absolutely fantastic! All of them! Go for brunch, get a toastie and a flat white, and your day is already complete.

We went here this week and really enjoyed it. Coffee was excellent in flavour and our lunch meals were entertaining and tasty, and really good. we thought we will eat again - probably next week

Very tasty food - I had the poached egg on sourdough. Coffee was lovely. Lovely decor and great location. Will be back!
