Spicer & Cole in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I come here a lot and the coffee is outstanding. I have recently been having the cheese and tomato baguette and the rolls are borderline dangerous! I assume it is sourdough but it is SO tough and hard to chew, anyone without their own full set of teeth should steer clear! Some days they are sharper than others but they are always tough and a real workout to eat. They are delicious but I question if there is not a more gum and mouth friendly alternative? Maybe the rolls used for the chicken baguette? I also think some variety in the sandwich options wouldn’t go amiss - the same tuna melt/Serrano ham/chicken/cheese options have been on offer for years. Also coat hooks on the toilet doors are needed to not have to put your coat and handbag on the wet floor.

A great start to Valentines Day. The toasted sourdough sandwiches were delicious and the freshly squeezed orange juice was really tasty. The staff were helpful and friendly.

Okay. We dropped in this morning at 8:15. We ordered two coffees and two sandwiches one halloumi with pesto and one sausage sandwich. Having placed our order at the counter we sat down at a table. It took 10 minutes for our coffee to come and at least 25 minutes before the sandwiches arrived by which time we had finished our coffee. Sausage sandwich was very average, halloumi with pesto, no pesto in stock! Coffee was good, service very slow, quality very average and price……expensive. Based on this experience we won’t hurry back.

Très bon brunch entre amis un dimanche midi. Un large choix de plats salés et de desserts. Nous nous sommes régalés. Il n'est cependant pas très clair de savoir où faire la queue pour manger sur place. Très fréquenté le dimanche midi.

Good range of snacks in this centrally located cafe. Delicious tuna melt and good choice of cold sandwiches. Cakes looked good. Trendy furniture and laid back vibe.

We visited this morning for breakfast, all I can say is that is was absolutely spot on!!! I had the full breakfast which was perfectly cooked, it’s a busy place however the service was spot on

Recommended. I would argue that this is some of the best coffee in Bristol. The snag is the cafe is not that big (there are also now tables outside for use in good weather) and there is a limited number of comfy leather bench seats, so don't settle in for an extended stay. The food looks good/healthy though I never eat it.

This was ideal; if we have another opportunity we'll come again. Husband who can usually spot the cloud around any silver lining was happy as a clam with a huge cheese, tomato and pickle and other bits baguette type sandwich, and a variety of salads. I had a tortilla type slice with salads - really tasty, colourful and looked like it was healthier than it probably was (such is life). And it would have been rude not to have cake, so we did. Chocolate and berry power ball for him (just because I thought it would be funny to give him what looked like a ball on a plate) and courgette and lime cake for me - which was as a courgette cake should be, and I don't usually bother with cake. A bit of passionfruit in the cream cheese icing would have been nice - but I'm being picky. If we can fit in another visit before the end of November (when the Marvin tax comes in), we definitely will. Well done, chaps. Great job, and thankyou. xx

Visited on a weekday afternoon. The shop has a decent seating area in the sun outside. Lots happening on the high street. Good flat white.

I've just had a marvellous breakfast of poached eggs and sourdough bread here and really can't fault the quality or service. The whole atmosphere is buzzy and energetic with a constant turnover of clientele, both older and young. Really excellent and well worth a visit at whatever time of day.

Great food and service one waitress even spotted our poach eggs were over done and changed them without us having to ask fantastic

After walking round clifton trying to find a place that did brunch suitable for a gluten and dairy free diet - we gave Spicer & Cole a go. It was amazing - one of the best brunches I've ever had. They do gluten free bread (which for some reason they don't advertise) and they even swapped out the sausage to an extra slice of bacon. Overall I was very impressed by the whole experience and the attitude of the staff (the guy behind the counter was so enthusiastic and happy to help which always makes such a difference). As a coeliac, finding places like this which treat allergies responsibly but don't make you feel as if it is a huge problem are hard to find. I will be back!

We popped in on Saturday morning for a coffee and a pastry but had order rage, so returned on Sunday to indulge in a delicious breakfast ... and so glad we did! Highly recommend if you're in the area

After too much whatever last nite in Browns, fresh OJ, granola and fruit, poached eggs and tea - all done to perfection at Spicer and Cole - really hit the spot. Please open a branch in London!

This place was very popular on New Years Day with a queue into the street but we soon got a table and it was well worth the wait. The food was fantastic - so fresh and flavoursome, and very reasonably priced. Nice atmosphere and very friendly service too, will definitely be back soon!

I am not one to write reviews but after the level of service my family recieved here, I felt I had to. Upon arriving my family (myself, wife and baby) were told that as we were a two we could not sit at a table of 4. Fair enough we accepted this only to find that the next 3 couples were given tables of 4. We mentioned that given we had a pram etc would it be possible to have the next table of 4 that becomes avaliable. The rude and sarcastic waitress then asked a couple to move so we could sit at their table. The couple (who were clearly not happy) gave us some abuse as they passed. From this point on, the whole team of staff had it in for us. We were constantly glared at and could see the staff talking about us. When ordering food, I asked for some tap water to which the staff said "what for?". My wife with a sore throat wanted some hot water which was given to us in a small teapot and the member of staff just shrugged. The food was okay, standard, nothing exciting. Upon finishing our last mouthful and going to pick our baby out the high chair we were pounced on. A member of staff started spraying the table, touching all our babies stuff (not ideal in covid times) and pushing for us to leave. How we stayed so calm is what surprises me the most, we were in total shock. My advice to anyone would be to not waste your time, do not go to this place, the staff are very rude and up themselves, the level of service horrendous and the food just about passable. I have tried to contact spicer and cole to express my concern and unhappiness but no luck. All I wanted to do was have a nice brunch with my family on our wedding anniversary and am still in shock about this experience.

Popped in here for breakfast. We’d had lunch the day before in a different branch and had been really impressed by the quality of the food. I had poached eggs on toast. Really good. Would recommend

Personal sarcástico grosero.Después de ordenar, la señora nos pidió que nos hiciéramos a un lado mientras esperábamos. Mientras esperaba, otro miembro del personal se acercó a nosotros y dijo: "Disculpe, ¿puede ir pararse allí mientras espera? Sé que probablemente ya se lo han dicho cientos de veces".Cuando en realidad esa fue la primera vez que nos preguntaron. El tono sarcástico y grosero de su voz, significa que nunca volveremos.Es una pena que vivamos a la vuelta de la esquina y que la mayoría de los días consigamos comida y almuerzo en el pueblo. . .

El café aquí es delicioso, mayonesa de huevo y sándwich de ensalada fresco y abundante. Entiendo que tenemos toda la pandemia de Covid, pero ¿por qué se cumple una solicitud de un vaso de agua para disfrutar mejor del delicioso café sugiriendo que compre una lata o que tenga que comprar una taza biodegradable por 15 p para tener grifo agua. Ridículo

a great place for brunch. Truly you can have anything you could wish for and it is all cooked to perfection. Just a bit tricky to get a seat as it becoming very popular.

Delicious freshly made salads served with hot outs abd choice quiche, sausage rolls, sandwiches, lovely cakes and pastries, very good coffee or selection teas

This was one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. We decided to sit outside because it was nice weather. When the breakfast arrived it looked lovely and I can assure you it also tasted lovely. Every ingredient in the breakfast were of a great standard. I used a wriggle deal so that it was two breakfast for £12. This is really good price considering how great the breakfast was. I have recommended this breakfast to lots of people. Thank you.

What a great place for good coffee and a light lunch. They do a salad plate with quiche etc and a decent selection of salad. Highly recommended, all very fresh. And a seriously good home cooked sausage roll.

Popped in for coffee and vegan cake, and to get some work done. The service was fast, despite being quite busy, and the coffee + cake were excellent!

Popped in for coffee, but longed to have more time to study chalk board , and peruse what looked like amazing menu. A quick glance of cakes on display was also very tempting, coming back asap

Popped in for coffee and cake. Good service and a great selection of cakes including a very fine spicy apple one.

Entró en la cafetería de esta cadena para tomar un café y hacer algunos correos electrónicos. Pero fue seducido por los huevos escalfados que estaban siendo entregados a una mesa cercana.Pedí huevos escalfados sobre pan tostado de masa fermentada, que llegó rápidamente, estaba muy bien presentado y estaba muy sabroso.¡Mi único cumplimiento sería que el área de asientos inferior está helada!

Fui con mi esposa a desayunar tarde, mientras paseábamos por el pueblo.¡Qué desayuno! . Cocinado / Presentado maravillosamente, este es el desayuno completo de Spicer & Cole. Disfruté mucho y recomiendo toda la comida, como se presenta encantadora. Además de un café encantador. El personal estaba muy interesado en hacer un excelente servicio a sus clientes hambrientos.

Fui a Spicer y Cole a la hora del almuerzo para tomar una taza de café y postre. Mi amigo tuvo un brunch vegetariano (ver foto). Me sentí muy tentado, pero mi ansia de azúcar se hizo cargo, así que en lugar de eso tomé un pastel sin harina de almendras con chocolate y un café con leche de soja.¿Cómo encontré mi café? ???? de 5En cuanto al sabor, era perfecto, no tenía una sensación de café demasiado fuerte y la cantidad no láctea era perfecta. ?Me hubiera gustado más caliente de lo que se servía, pero puede ser solo una cuestión de gusto personal.¿Cómo encontré mi pastel? ????? de 5Ahora déjame explicarte lo increíble y lleno que fue este pequeño pedazo de pastel. Además de eso, no era demasiado dulce, estaba súper húmedo y solo una experiencia sabrosa.¿Cómo encontró mi amiga su brunch? Bueno, no sé, pero ella terminó todo el plato a pesar de que no tenía tanta hambre. Entonces, ¿qué te parece? ??¿Por qué le doy un 4/5? Tal vez porque entramos y nadie parecía estar lidiando con los asientos de la mesa y tuvimos que resolverlo nosotros mismos. El lugar estaba muy ocupado pero aún así. En segundo lugar, tardé bastante en conseguir el almuerzo para mi amigo y tuve que preguntar al respecto.Para resumir, realmente me gustaron Spicer y Cole y estoy planeando volver a probar un poco más de pastel y sus otras recetas. Esa ensalada de edamame me guiñó el ojo todo el tiempo. . . ??

A decent sized café/coffee shop in the heart of Clifton Village, it seemed a popular spot on our recent Saturday morning visit with most tables occupied by 9:30 or so, and punters spilling out on to the couple of small tables on the pavement outside. I opted for the smashed avocado on toast with harissa and coriander and also went for a couple of poached eggs as an optional extra (oddly the waitress had to clarify that I meant two when asking for a couple). On the whole this was pretty good with a decent amount of avocado and some crunchy sourdough bread. That said, the harissa was just a decorative ring around the edge of the plate rather than being an integral part of the dish, and I think most of the coriander was too, with just one solitary sprig being found within the food. Without the eggs it would have been rather one dimensional I would have thought, and a £2 supplement for these seemed a little expensive.

as an infrequent visitor to clifton, this has over the past few years been our cafe of choice, maybe visiting 3/4 times a year.

Freshly made food, sandwiches, salads, panini, cakes. Good coffee, lovely cakes, savoury sausage rolls, tortellini to go with salads. Gluten free foods. Lots of tables to eat in or takeaway lots off people lunching on their own, friends, familiesg

Set in a busy Clifton street this cafe is an oasis of calm and stylish design. Great service and quality coffee and food. I had the full breakfast, beautifully cooked and my wife had poached eggs on sourdough toast. Both meals were excellent. Amid the many cafes in the area, be sure to try this one, you will not be disappointed.

Visited today June 2019 for light lunch with a friend.

Cafe is very popular. I love the decor; modern and charming. Haven't had any food yet but the coffee is really good, best coffee I've tasted as of yet. Service is a bit hit & miss- sometimes it's super fast and people are lovely but other times it's slow, orders are being forgotten and the staff seem miserable. Will definitely go back though, I do love the coffee!

What a treat! We had a delicious breakfast here. I had the full breakfast (meat) and my husband had the vegetarian. He said it was the best breakfast he had had in a while. Well worth the trek and excellent value for money. Worth every penny! The cakes looked scrumptious too. Would have gone there for tea had we been nearer.

Encontramos esta pequeña joya de lugar para almorzar en el camino de regreso al centro de la ciudad de Bristol después de visitar el puente colgante de Clifton y ¡qué hallazgo! La comida era excelente tanto en elección como en sabor. Mi esposa está libre de gluten y no hubo problemas con su dieta. El servicio fue rápido, amable y muy eficiente. Si alguna vez estás en la zona, este es el lugar para ir.

The coffee here was lovely and there was a great choice of cakes.....we had Tunisian Orange cake and a scrumptious but very light chocolate cake. The savoury snack options looked really appetising too with lots of vegetarian choices.

We were passing through Clifton on the way to visit family friends and stumbled upon this glorious little cafe. A really great find - amazing, mouthwatering food, at reasonable prices. Check it out!

If you are looking for superb salad options this is the place! Crunch, freshness and subtle combinations of flavour- the whole yummyness is here to taste. Simply delicious!

The food is typically pretty good but today I just about cracked a tooth trying to gnaw through overdone sourdough toast - the crusts were inedible. Serving hot breakfast dishes in bowls, rather than on plates, also makes for an uncomfortable dining experience.

This is the second time I have visited this cafe and have been equally impressed. The selection of cakes and pastries is amazing as is the breakfast menu. There is a lovely atmosphere and the staff are hardworking and friendly. Our meals were both fantastic, so good we justified a spot of breakfast pudding. I will visit here every time we visit Bristol.

As a recent new mum I'm now looking for different things in a cafe. Doorways that are wide enough to fit a pushchair, step free access and reasonable spaces between tables are key things. This cafe is easily accessible for me and it's great to still be able to enjoy their lovely lunches and tasty cakes with the baby in tow!

OK, its a coffee shop which had no food to sell when we visited. The coffee was average and the service is arrogant, disinterested and unfriendly and they had run out of food..... Also the decor is no uninspired and boring, with no atmosphere

Friendly service, delicious coffee and cakes. However, within an hour of visiting, I had unpleasant stomach cramps, and so did my companion.

We picked up some ciabatta rolls and quiches to eat in our nearby hotel room and the food was absolutely delicious. If in the area again we will definitely eat there.

Called in to this coffee shop in Clifton on a bright sunny December morning having had a very early meeting and a long drive in torrential rain: my spicy cranberry and ginger muffin was a true delight, fresh from the oven and served by friendly staff in warm pleasant surroundings. There was a mixed crowd enjoying everything from porridge or avocado on toast or pastries to interesting other breakfast options. I'll call in again next time I'm in the area.

Lovely brunch, variety of nice dishes and great coffee. Not local to Bristol and staff really helpful with advice on things to do and see.

Lovely place for breakfast. The quality of the sourdough is excellent, and the mushrooms with pesto on toast really lovely. Good coffee too.

Visitamos un sábado a media mañana y el lugar estaba lleno, lo que me pareció una buena señal.

Mum and I stopped in here for a much needed breakfast - the food was gorgeous and the service very friendly. Best Oat Flat white ever! Highly recommend!! X

Segunda visita para nosotros y no nos decepcionó. Gran pastel: mi rosa, naranja y cardamomo era una porción de tamaño generoso y muy húmeda. El café era bueno, el personal amable y el ambiente relajado. Ambas veces que hemos visitado han sido a última hora de la tarde y, por lo tanto, no hay mucha gente, pero me imagino que en las horas punta debe estar muy ocupado.

Good honest hot coffee, with a great choice of homemade cakes, worth a visit if you can get parked! Service is fast and efficient, nice chilled out background music as well.

Had decaf coffee and cappuccino. Both very good. Hot cups and no bitterness in coffee. Blueberry muffin was fresh. Place was busy. Staff pleasant.

Lovely coffee good service and they made room for 5 of us by asking a few people to move to smaller tables.

Opens at 7:30 which is just right for getting to an appointment at 8:30 when you have begun the day in Solihull. Always welcoming and good selection of the run-of-the-mill breakfast choices. Cappuccino always excellent as well.

Pleasant cafe in Clifton, not overly busy when we visited, but enough people to make a good atmosphere and the turnover of people leaving and arriving was fairly consistent. The coffee (flat white) that I had was probably one of the best I've tasted! Perfect consistency and excellent taste! The cake was very nice too, I had a raspberry and white chocolate flapjack. Staff were pleasant and friendly, thanks very much!

Great food & environment with friendly efficient staff.

Bit disappointed with the experience at Spicer & Cole this morning. £5.75 for a slice of sourdough, lukewarm mushrooms and a miscellaneous sprig. It looked great and tasted alright, but I can’t convincingly say it was worth the money. My friend seemed to enjoy the bacon and egg sandwich, so maybe I just got unlucky with my choice of dish.

The counter display always looks so appetising but on the two occasions I have visited the cakes look nicer than they taste. The coffee is lovely and the tables were clean and tidy. I would suggest in this hot weather that cakes with a frosting such as the carrot should be kept in the fridge as the icing tasted a little odd and was very warm and dry.

I went in for breakfast. Coffee (americano) was OK. The breakfast special, poached eggs, bacon on a muffin was spoilt by the tasteless stodgy sauce. Service was fairly slow and the food was lukewarm. Whilst going back to the bar to collect my coffee, a server removed my numbered paddle and receipt. When I challenged this, he refused to give them back at first, disappearing into the servery, presumably to ask someone who did his thinking for him. He reappeared a few moments later and dumped the paddle and receipt on the table without apology. The whole cost £9.55 which seemd expensive for such a poor experience

We both had poached eggs on sourdough. Tasty as but because the sourdough toast was overdone, it was very hard to slice for every mouthful. The coffee and chai latte were warm which was a bit of a let down. Aside from that, would go again. The decor is rustic and very tastefully done.

Delicious coffee. Sandwiches were nice. Would be nice if staff didn’t use a bacteria infested cloth to wipe down the tables though!

We had heard good things about this cafe and we were not disappointed. Two first rate breakfasts-my wife’s poached eggs on smashed avocado was upto Australian standard! High praise. Very impressive and nicely different.

Visited for lunch on 2nd April and was really impressed with the range of food, including some delicious cakes. There was also an extensive range of coffees, teas and cold drinks. The interior of Spicer and Cole is very welcoming with the food and drinks chalked up on the board behind the counter. The food is also well displayed. I had a delicious cheese toasted with Montgomery cheddar on sourdough and then an amazing Lovely cherry cola. A great place to visit for lovely food and drink in a relaxed and friendly setting.

Nice tea, coffee, cakes (friends I was with had) but £5.70 for a soft drink .... really?!! All I had was a sour cherry cola and it cost me £5.70!! I went last week and still getting over this! Unbelievable, will not be going back

We are regular visitors here for coffee. Always busy and buzzing with a wide variety of customers. Coffee is perfect and a good selection of breakfasts,tasty cakes, and savoury items. Much better than your standard coffee shop.

Thought the coffee was good, I had a mocha and my husband had a black guest coffee. It was a little cramped with everyone waiting for their take out orders, and the service was a little off-ish so deducted a point for that.

Popped in after a long walk over and around the bridge. Service was friendly and even well after lunchtime the range of food available really impressive.

A great place for breakfast with many options and weekend specials. The prices are reasonable and you can customise your breakfast, adding whatever you like. We both enjoyed the avo on sourdough with added poached eggs and a delicious oat latte the food all came out quickly. Will be going back again

Great food & great coffee! Absolutely perfect veggie breakfast :) will definitely be coming back, the best breakfast in Clifton :)

Not overly impressed, particularly considering the price. 3 veggie breakfasts and one meat. 5 of 6 poached eggs overcooked. They...

So impressed last weekend we returned this weekend for another delicious breakfast/brunch. Something special about this place, a great atmosphere,...

Came here with my brother for lunch and it was so lovely, the atmosphere and design was very cute and...

This is a great little cafe all fine home cooked and locally sourced top class ingredients. Friendly helpful staff and...

Welcoming and attentive staff, great baguettes (esp pastrami & elemental, crayfish), soup (we had spicy Thai), coffee and teas. Loved this place and will return.

Friendly welcoming staff. Good selection of sandwiches and fantastic beetroot soup. A very popular cafe offering great service.

C'est un peu cher mais tout était très bon. Leur muesli avec le yahourt grec est à tomber par terre tellement il est bon.

Cafetería muy bonita con una gran selección de comida. Realmente me encantó sus tartas, especialmente lima y calabacines - ¡increíble!

Hay mucha competencia en Bristol. Esta pequeña joya destaca - comida y pasteles para morirse y un gran ambiente. Personal amable sonriente y una diversa base de clientes. Seguir haciendo lo que hacen tan brillantemente!

Fuimos allí hace una semana. Primera vez un fue espectacular. La comida es muy deliciosa. La focaccia con atún y mayonesa el ganador. Lo recomiendo totalmente

Lugar encantador con comida realmente deliciosa. Buen servicio, puede ser difícil conseguir un asiento como tan ocupado (pero que sólo puede ser una buena señal).

Cafetería acogedora con un agradable y relajado ambiente hogareño. La variedad de comida es siempre una gran atracción y el café es delicioso!

Apart from getting the order wrong, it was apparently a huge inconvenience to provide hot milk for our coffee. Staff who behave as though customers are a nuisance and a noisy atmosphere made for a seriously unpleasant visit. Never again!

Came to Spicer and Cole for the traditional post night out breakfast. A delicious sausage sandwich on lovely bread, freshly squeezed orange juice and a rich tasty espresso! Great breakfast!

I've been here a couple of times and they do great brunches, quiche and salads. Free wifi and a lovely atmosphere. Service good too. My only moan would be that they do get really busy and you have to order and pay for things in advance before sitting down, which can mean that by the time you're looking for a table you can't actually get one. I think it would work better if there was table service.

Nice location in Clifton and very nice display of product on the counter. But the sandwiches are pretty expensive and for we felt that the foods didn't live up to the descriptions,being either bland, or in one case barely edible due to very tough chicken that had bits of bone in it. The back room was rather underwhelming.

Treated to brunch by my lovely daughter here for early Mother's Day. Great find, friendly service we had poached eggs on sourdough with cream cheese, freshly cooked and delicious! Coffee was excellent and loved atmosphere of this place - so much so called in later for takeaway coffee and cake! Thank you.

Came across this lovely cafe while strolling around Clifton village. The staff were very polite and helpful great atmosphere . My husband had the tomato soup which was delicious. I had the salad plate which consisted of chickpea,mint,pomegranate and sumac onions. Beetroot and barley.carrot salad also. The flavours were amazing. Wish I had room for one of the cakes that looked equally delicious. Would highly recommend this place. It was busy and people queuing for take out lunch and coffee. Will definitely come back when we next visit Clifton in the summer.

Popped in for a snack, lovely selection of food, hot and cold, home-made. Caters for every need. Amazing selection of teas.Friendly, welcoming and good service, a great find - will be returning.

Heerlijke lunchcombinaties hebben ze hier.Erg lekker brood en ook de smoothies zijn goddelijk.Alle sbiologisch en verantwoord.Top plek om te lunchen. Dat weet iedereen, dus kom op tijd, want het kan erg druk zijn

絕對美味! 令人驚異的煙肉和哈里萨三明治, 有一大堆的培根了 我隻仔有煙熏三文魚百吉餅, 他所喜愛。 成了令人驚異嘅咖啡。 有 D 偏貴, 但完全值得。 它裝飾精美, 好安樂。

Trendy venue, exciting menu so much to choose from (vegan, vegetarian). Products are fresh, seasonal & local. They even have a board explaining where they get their produce from. The food is absolutely on point. I had leak and potato soup, to die for! Lovely coffee and cakes. Highly recommend this place!

I come into this Spicer and Cole around 4 times a week on my lunch break. Sometimes I come just for a coffee but most the time I end up having the delicious food on offer!The coffee to begin with is strong and taste amazing, one of my favourite coffees in Clifton Village.The food is also second to none. I tend to have a frittata or something similar with a salad and it is always so full of flavour and always different each day which is great.I am completely obsessed with the peanut butter cookies too they are so delicious!The service is always great too. Even at busy times the staff are welcoming, and try to serve you as soon as possible - which may at times be a little longer than other places but well worth the wait. The manager is extremely friendly and a great person to have representing the company. My order is well known now and I would always chose Spicer and Cole as my first option over anywhere else in the area.

Absolutely delicious! I had an amazing bacon and harissa sandwich which had loads of bacon. My boyfriend had a smoked salmon bagel, which he loved. Topped off with amazing coffee. A little on the pricey side but totally worth it. It is beautifully decorated and the staff are pleasant.

Situato nello splendido clifton Village, questo posto offre un ottimo pranzo vegetariano con una buona scelta di torte salate, insalate curiose, dolci e bevande calde.Prezzo economico e posto semplice e giovane, free wi fi. Ideale per un pranzo leggero e veloce o anche solo per un caffè e una fetta di torta.

I've visited a few times in the last few months. I love their tomato and paprika soup but I hate the 20 minute wait from order to receiving the take-away! The service is always really slow, no matter what you order and I can't understand why they don't sort it out they seem to have enough staff. My avocado on toast for breakfast was served on cold toast and the extra roast tomato was the most expensive tomato ever at £2 for one!

This is a very busy cafe, recommended to us by a local for it's excellent quality snacks and salads. We had a range of panini's and tarts with salad & also a good range of hot and cold drinks all of which were good and reasonably priced. It was busy so we had to sit by the entrance door which opens straight onto the pavement & meant there was a chilly draft as it was a cold day. It was also quite noisy, as customers came and went, many to buy take outs. If you have the option I would try and sit nearer the back of the Cafe, however the food was excellent & it's reputation with local's well deserved.

We fell over this place by accident when in Bristol looking for a good cup of coffee and breakfast. The choice of food for vegetarians and those with intolerance's was really impressive. While the food was simple in thought, it was beautifully presented, very cleverly constructed to ensure a good depth of flavour and mix of ingredients. The coffee was fantastic and service excellent. It was so good we went back the next day with friends.

I cannot fault spicer and Cole for their sandwiches and Paninis. I have a particular weakness for the Wiltshire ham and broke on focaccia with apricot marmalade. I have been every Wednesday for several years now to meet with my brother and father. I would highly recommend.
