Small Street Espresso in Bristol, City of

Great coffee in a cozy small space if staying in.

Super cozy place with great drinks. Hope to see the house beans sold online sometime

Really great coffee in a cosy space

A coffee shop tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

A small cafe in Bristol city centre. Nice interior, but no wifi. Good selection of savoury items for brunch/lunch.

Very cosy coffee shop with barista that knows what he’s doing. I tried the piccolo coffee, which is basically just a Cortado. It was well-made. However, North Americans beware that this coffee shop just like many others in England offer Ethiopian coffee. Compared to Colombian coffee that we are used to is a bit more bitter and requires some getting used to. The interior of the coffee shop is very cozy. However, space is limited. We were lucky enough to sit by the window.

Nice coffee. Friendly staff. Delicious chocolate doughnut. Was card only when I went.

Very Good food and coffee. Atmosphere especially very cosy since its small and has a lot of wooden furniture. Service is amazing too. Highly recommended once you are around.

Top quality cortado, not lost it’s mojo

Great little coffee shop. Delicious coffee, and the toasties are very tasty too.

Hands down the best coffee in Bristol. And make sure you get there on Friday for the donuts. The toasties are pretty good too!

Delicious, well balanced flat white. Cool vibes when sitting in although limited spacing

Amazing fresh tasty donuts! I only had time for a takeaway but I will definitely return and enjoy a coffee next time! Wish I had bought more than one! 😂

Unfortunately, the employee wasn't particularly friendly to me. Unfortunately, I didn't like the espresso at all - it was far too sour and floral. To me it tasted more like coffee ground powder had been misused for espresso.

Beautiful coffee in the city 🤌🏽

Lovely little coffee shop, with a very experienced barista and excellent coffee!

One of the top cafes in Bristol. Lovely place, tasty cakes & amazing coffee.

Excellent oat milk latte in a very pleasant space

Actually I don’t want to share this review on Google map as it’s my one of secret perfect cafe in Bristol city centre. Artisan espresso and barista is very professional. Price is reasonable and it’s a quiet place to stop on. After got an expensive milk water( named cappuccino) in the kiosk(in front of Caffè Nero, damn because Nero was closed ) in Clarks Village( outlet) on last Sun, I really need to get the real nice coffee. P.S. : Place to enjoy coffee! Card payment only No toilet Please keep quiet, here is not a kid’s playground

Coffee lovely and staff friendly, my only issue was after the coffee was made to go I was told card payment only. I wanted to support an independent cafe for future lunches with friends and colleagues but in future I will take my cash elsewhere.

Stopped by for a V60 - very cute shop with wood benches and outdoor seating. Excellent coffee; made slow, rich in flavour, nice sized cup for reasonable price. Quiet spot to work (though you won't find a ton of proper tables inside - was a bit hunched over). A few pastries available (might have more in the morning - I popped in around 11).

Don't even think about going anywhere else for your coffee and croissant if you're anywhere near the centre of Bristol!

A small coffeeshop in the older part of Bristol, just near the courts which makes for an interesting clientele - including lawyers in traditional garb. The coffee is excellent and there is a small selection of baked goods and toasties. I particularly enjoy the toast and peanut butter. It has a cosy atmosphere and the staff are helpful and friendly.

This is my go-to coffee shop in Bristol. Great coffee, nice cakes and a chilled, pleasant place to sit. Unlike a previous review, I find the staff (including 'the brunette') to be polite and very friendly. I chat to them whenever I'm there! Highly recommended! 👌

Great coffee, fancy roasts. Free wifi for customers. What more could you want?

Very bad attitude with baby .. they let us to go out cause my baby raised his voice and he only 1 year old :)

One of my fav coffee shops in Bristol. Great donuts and even better cold brew ❤️‍🔥

Very handy, if you have reason to visit Bristol Crown Court. Small location, and their coffee tends to be a little strong and slightly bitter (not the best) but hey it’s convenient and very close to Corn Street, and St Nicholas market etc

Coffee was good. Quite cozy and nice vibe. Shame the staff were a bit cold.

I ordered a oat milk chai latte which was alright - my partner ordered a oat milk flat white which he also found to be okay. The café was a little loud, but had a lovely interior.

Must stop in Bristol. Definitely the smallest coffeeshop in town, and yet the one I love the most. The coffee quality is outstanding!

One of my favourite cafés. Perfect coffee and great cakes.

Coffee *was* brilliant, deserves the hype.

Top quality coffee, nothing more to say, 5 stars.

Oat cappuccino was smooth and delicious, and the hot chocolate was perfectly sweet. Also a great piece of lemon polenta, in a very cute little coffee shop, with a great friendly barista. I’m taking off a star because one of the baristas (a blonde lady) gave off a really immature and rude vibe, which I felt conflicted with the style of the coffee shop. Also no toilet.

One of the best speciality coffee places in Bristol. Cosy, friendly atmosphere. If only they were open at weekends.

Fabulous service and of course best coffee!

really nice flatwhite atmossphere good😀

Consistently great tasting coffee through the years.

Staff are always lovely and coffe is always great

Coffee was nice, Barista's miserable and rude

Popped in here today. I have several intolerances and the person who served me was very kind, patient and helpful, which I really appreciated. The banana bread and oat milk hot chocolate were lovely too :)

Great coffee and friendly barista

I tried the GUEST ESPRESSO LA CLAUDINA, COLOMBIA (FN) ROASTED BY ROUNDHILL

I’m frequently in the area on business, so I’ll nip into Small Street for a Latte, it’s everything you’d want a coffee shop to be, it’s a quaint and rustic looking place. Whenever I visit there’ll always be someone sat in the corner with their head buried in a book or someone working away on their laptop. Whoever greets you behind the counter is always warm and friendly, there’s the most tempting and alluring sandwiches or cakes on the counter, and the smell of the fresh coffee is amazing also!! I drink a lot of coffee and I love to sit and watch the world go by, if I had more time I’d love to sit outside here and do this, unfortunately my busy job means I’m unable to do so, maybe one day. Onto the coffee itself, it’s genuinely the nicest Latte I’ve ever tasted! The coffee itself is made nearby which makes it even more appealing, it’s a myth when someone tells you that Columbia make the worlds best coffee, they need to try here!

Cafè d’especialitat amagat en un carrer del centre de Bristol. Té diversos llocs per seure tan a fora com a dins. Molt bo!

Very friendly customer service and superb coffee. Introduced toasted banana bread into my life. I’m glad we found Small Street Espresso.

A must just down from the Bristol Harbour Hotel. Lovely coffee and a great selection of filled doughnuts Only disappointment it wasn't open on the Saturday morning.

Lovely coffee would definitely recommend

Certainly a place to get a fantastic coffee. The staff were very nice and attentive. I just wish they were open more days and on weekends. That's the only reason it's not 5 star.

Great service, amazing coffee. I would highly recommend. It's one of my favourite spots in Bristol.

lovely lil cafe with the friendliest staff. the coffee was pretty decent; i could definitely taste the quality of the beans, but had to take a star off as it was slightly too bitter and ashy for my palate.

Great costumer service and very nice Ethiopian guest espresso ! Toasties very very nice as well !

Delicious coffee and cake. Friendly owners

Amazing coffee and people, by far one of the friendliest places around, and the coffee is excellent, already planning my next break to go in 😊

Probably one of the top 3 best coffees in Bristol. The espresso beans used here are top quality and the baristas really know what they’re doing (down to recommending whether you have milk or not with the guest filter). They’re also just really nice, gentle people which I appreciate. Set on a lovely quiet road in Bristol I love to get a coffee and sit outside to stare at the building opposite.

It's not just the coffee that makes a coffee shop it's the staff as well. Lovely small independant coffee shop, great coffee and great staff and the best mochatado😉

Excellent coffee and atmosphere.

Nice little cafe and nice little spot on the street! Wouldn’t say the coffee was as great as the other reviews are implementing however everyone has there acquired taste. Came here to try for myself although I thought it was too strong and had a bit of a weird after taste to it, nonetheless I suggest you try for yourself

Lovely little place with banging coffee, what more can you ask for!?

Modest littel cafe - ideal for breakfast of croissants, jam and peanut butter! Highly recommended. We loved it.

Delicious coffee & great, friendly service. I will definitely be returning anytime I'm in Bristol.

Great coffee, friendly staff, nice location

Possibly the best coffee in this area! As I’ve not tried all the coffee places in Bristol I’m hesitant to go that far! I tried a decaf oat flat white and the coffee was superior to anything else around here. It was £3 which is cheaper and tastes better than another independent coffee place on the next road down by the Grand. It’s obvious Small Street Espresso care about the quality of their coffee and won’t over charge for it. Also fully recyclable cups booya!

Another great coffee in the centre!! We went there on a weekday and sat on the street side. Its house blend is a very balanced one with combination of El Salvador, Ethiopia, Panama and Uganda. The blend is roasted by Clifton. It was so smooth with the milk with balanced taste! Gonna come back for filter coffee next time!!

Best coffee in Bristol and great service

Some of the best coffee I’ve ever had plus super helpful staff

Beautiful place, lovely flat white, friendly staff topped off with a slice of billionaire's shortbread. Top find!

Visiting Bristol and chose this coffee shop based on the good reviews we had read. Was not disappointed. One of the nicest coffees we have had and the cake (millionaires brownie) was fantastic and I’d highly recommend it!

Sly and most sufisticated coffee .. on small street ' definitely not small mind you on the service and grind .. fab tasting espresso with smiley and friendly staff. A great first time experience here also with a flapjack that was vegan and upmost yummy!

Delicious espresso, would recommend.

Great coffee, great service!!! Thankyou

Delicious Oat milk cappuccino. Strong and sweet.

Consistently incredible coffee, great atmosphere & fun vibrant service. A must visit! Cannot wait to sit in again & do the crossword while eating the best toast in town!

Clean, tidy and great coffee. Would love to be able to sit in enjoy it properly post-covid life. Will update to 5* then.

Today i visited your shop while in the area on business and was clearly wearing a face covering exempt lanyard. I watched the previous customer go in and order and stand by the counter with the shop door shut as it was 2 degrees outside! She left and i went to go in and order but was told i had to stand by the door with it wide open and shout my order across as i was not wearing a mask! I showed my tag stating i have a hidden disability that means i cant wear one. The woman serving was very rude and said she didnt know what i had! I was nearly in tears and reminded her about discrimination. She tried to backtrack by offering a free pastry. I left feeling so shocked and embarresed!

Great coffee, delicious cakes (the pecan pie is a must) and fast, friendly service.

Lovely little venue, great coffee, knowledgable friendly staff.

My favourite coffee shack in town. Lovely staff

This is an amazing little coffee shop I discovered many years ago round the corner from my office. Their coffee is amazing and they always have a delicious selection of cakes from Harts bakery to enjoy too. The staff are really friendly and getting my morning coffee is a real treat.

A great coffee shop with great staff and lovely cakes!

Great coffee, with a selection of single origin and blends available, changing daily. Cosy environment, with a friendly and rustic feel to it.

In my opinion, the best coffee in Bristol.

1st time visit, excellent coffee. 2nd time visit today. Great coffee, wouldn't revisit though. Extremely busy, minimal seating and no toilet. A lot of people just sat talking after they finish their drinks which takes up a lot of space.

Excellent coffee on offer and to ingredients take away as well. Tasty looking snacks from pastries to sandwiches. Everything at a fair price with very friendly and efficient service.

Wouldn't go anywhere else for coffee and a pastry to start a Saturday morning in Bristol.

Love this little coffee shop. Small street, small venue.. but they serve a fantastic coffee, great little desserts with friendly staff.

Really friendly staff and great location. The sourdough toast is delicious

A true speciality coffee experience. Amazing quality and friendly staff. Be sure to try their espresso!

Really great coffee. Cool, relaxed, friendly.

Lovely coffees, nice vibe.... No toilet, was directed to wetherspoons back entrance opposite

Best coffee in Bristol with a smile!

My favourite little retreat to go and have a quiet coffee in the heart of Bristol. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, always happy to see you and have a smile on their faces. Great selection of local and guest beans available, and the coffee served is some of the best in the South West.

A must visit when in Bristol! Small street has an incredibly cosy vibe with a smell of beautiful single origin coffee filling the air. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, giving you plenty of time to make up your mind about what you'd like to order. Sometimes you just need a coffee chocolate hit (instead of a filter coffee) and there's absolutely no judgement from the baristas.

This is the best coffee in Bristol

This is my favourite coffee shop in Bristol. Add some vegan sandwiches to your menu and I’ll give you a 5! :)

Big dude, medium coffee, small street. Goldilocks got nothing on us.

Its one of Bristols small coffee independant shops (the other one thats cool is just near dangun, its really cool and really love the place, as i am sometimes sitting here reading some books, talking to the nice bartenders and expierence different kinds of coffee too.

La comida muy buena y no estuvo caro.
