The Cow & Sow (Queen Square) in Bristol, City of

Outstanding steak! Would certainly go again and recommend.

Family of 4 went on a Friday evening. We were greeted promptly and seated straight away. Staff were very friendly and professional and the food was delicious! Lovely wine too! Overall we all agreed that we’d love to come back again soon. Recommended!

Despite making a reservation very last minute on a Saturday we were so well looked after - we were served by Mikaela and everything was amazing - my steak was cooked perfectly and so flavourful, and my boyfriends pork was insanely tender and really delicious.Even got a free glass of Prosecco as it was my birthday. Don’t live close to the area at all but if we’re staying there again we’d come back for sure.

Had a lovely meal! Everything was devine, no complaints at all! Kayla our server was amazing, definitely be back.

Amazing food! Served in a timely manner, our server Kayla was amazing friendly and very attentive.

The food, service & atmosphere were all amazing! I believe our server was called Ed the other evening and he was very attentive, as well as patient to go through the menu and recommend items on the menu from the sides, main and even the wines. Overall, a great experience for my family as well as myself.

Insanely good food with super chill friendly staff.

Great roasts! And good service, thanks Hannah!

Lovely food, our server Aimee was great. Thankyou

Lovely staff, lovely food, great time. Thanks to Ochran & Manus

Fantastic food and atmosphere, one of the best steaks i have had.

I went with 3 friendsfor evening meal. Staff friendly. Very slow service. Food excellent.They were very busy.

Took my girlfriend for her birthday tonight to Cow&Sow, Queens Square, Bristol and had the most beautiful and memorable night. Was served by Kayla who was very accommodating, efficient and super kind. Thank you!!

Me and my girlfriend visited for my 21st and was served by Kayla who made us feel very welcomed and took their time to help me with what to order! Thank you for such an amazing experience :)

Lovely dinner and very good Cow & Sow Malbec to wash it down. Thanks to Kayla for looking after us!

The ribeye was excellent, and the Rioja I ordered with it was very pleasant too. Really, really lovely staff and a relaxing atmosphere.

Welcomed by Tom who was very enthusiastic and being our first time he explained the menu to us which was very helpful. Food was great, steak was cooked to how we wanted it and sides were good. Atmosphere was lovely, towards the end of our meal we were served by Anita who was also very kind and lovely.

Absolutely loved Cow & Sow at queen's square!! We ate on a Monday lunchtime. The staff were wonderful, the food was amazing and the drinks too! Lovely place for a birthday lunch. We'll certainly be back next time we visit Bristol. Looking forward to trying more of the menu at your other locations too. Great place!! Xxx

Alina + Ed were amazing! Brilliant food!!

great food and really great service Been here about 4/5 times now Never had a bad meal or service

I had a wonderful experience at Cow and Sow recently, having had the delicious Ox cheek croquettes to start and a perfectly cooked ribeye for my main - my only feedback would be that the bacon dauphinoise was a bit bland and needed a bit more love. Service was top notch 👌 professional and friendly. I'd definitely recommend this place.

Great steak with sides and starters to match. The service was also the best we’ve had in Bristol, we had Ed, a lovely vibrant fellow. Can’t wait to go again!

Had the three-course set lunch menu with my sisters who had never been to a Cow & Sow before. The server in the Queen's Square restaurant was attentive, knowledgeable & friendly. We had such a wonderful meal in terms of food & wine quality, the atmosphere, the service & it was good value for what we had. Will definitely return.

Great meal for my birthday, jess and lily were great, always happy to help!

Lovely meal in a great setting. Staff were also fantastic

We ordered two flat iron steaks and were given fillets by mistake, we don’t eat steak very often (once a year maybe) so we had no idea of the difference. But what we did know was how fantastic the food was. The chips were amazing (with beef dripping) and at the end the waitress changed our bill from fillet to flat iron, honestly couldn’t fault them at all. Will definitely be coming back and choosing the fillet now we know how good it is!! Price is very reasonable for what you get (regardless of the mix up) 10*

Delicious food & drinks, good price, friendly staff, amazing atmosphere, gave me and my partner a free desert for our anniversary

Really good service from Hannah was very welcoming and friendly would recommend this restaurant!

Service was good but not great. A bit slow at times and our wine was never topped up. The biggest disappointment however was the steak. It was pretty tough and chewy for a medium rare steak. Not what I expect from a £100 steak so won’t be back.

Nice place for some delicious meat!

The cow and sow has to be hands down the best steakhouse in Bristol! Amazing food and amazing service, will definitely be going back

we dined here before heading to the theatre and were blown away! there was a great selection of non-alcoholic drinks and they arrived very quickly. the starters were incredible, we ordered the bread and some burnt ends- had absolutely no clue what we were ordering but they were amazing! would definitely recommend. we were served by jordan and tom; service was efficient and friendly, but not overbearing which was very nice! jordan was especially helpful when we were navigating the menu, telling us all about the steaks on offer and what we could order based on our preferences. our food - especially the sirloin - was perfect, exactly how we wanted it. kudos to jordan! overall, the atmosphere was lovely, the facilities were clean and the food was brilliant. we are excited to come again!

We’ve never had a poor experience at either Cow and Sow in Bristol. I’m rubbish at writing reviews so let me just say that both the food and service is excellent. It’s the type of restaurant that you feel comfortable in jeans or dressed up. Everything is so well done. The only reason I have 4 stars for the food is that I prefer my garlic butter at room temperature rather than fridge cold. But that’s purely preference. The lunch offer is incredible value.

Went for pre show dinner. The food and service were excellent.

I visited Cow & Sow for my partner’s 30th. We were a party of 14 and the team were amazing. Anna was particularly great and offered to do personalised name tags for everyone. The staff on the night were also excellent and very attentive. They made it a very special evening. The food was excellent, I’ve only rated it down because the dauphinoise potatoes, which came with mains as part of the set menu, were an incredibly small portion. So much so we had to order extra chips. Otherwise, everything was perfect and I actually think the set menu was very reasonable for the quantity and the quality!

Alice served us for our Sunday lunch. Superb, food, service, ambience, was all outstanding.

Fabulous food, service, everything! Loved it!! Will definitely be back!

I been there few days ago. The food here is amazing, very fresh, and high quality. Food taste sooo good. We order stake and pork belly. The atmosphere is welcoming, clean, and elegant. Service is great. The server was nice. We were sited fast. I didn't make any reservations, we went there around 15 pm we got a table, so we were happy to dine here. Overall, we eaten good.

Excellent late lunch of a sharer Picanha accompanied by side dishes and a Mulbec that complimented the steak beautifully.

Really amazing experience! A must visit for a nice steak and pleasant atmosphere. They've been busy on a Saturday night, although service was friendly.

The food was absolutely spectacular. The chateubriand steak was just as advertised and cooked to perfection. All the sides were beautiful as well as the desserts and the service was incredible. Luke and Tik made us feel right at home and we were catered to excellently. 5 stars all around. Thank you for an amazing service from you both

We had a great lunch! We have been served by Ed and Alice, very kind and professional. The food was delicious and the service above the expectations.

Specialized in meats but without neglecting other dishes. From the initial bread and butter to the desserts, all dishes were delicious. Highlights include their Croquettes, Caramelized Pork, Fried Onion (essential) and, of course, the meat, served just as requested. The service was excellent at all times, highlighting our waiter Sebastian, who was very attentive, kind and friendly. The price is high but according to what was received. Very nice place, with a small outdoor terrace. Highly recommended.

Fantastic food! Really wonderful, one of the best roast dinners we have ever had. Also, the wine was fantastic - highly recommend the Ancora Pinot Grigio Rosé and the beef Brisket for main! :)

Excellent lunch with friends. Subtle, knowledgeable,engaging service from Ed and Chloe. Thank you for making our leisurely lunch such a joy. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and service. Superb ingredients simply cooked to perfection. Great value set lunch menu with a good range of quality dishes in each course. Delicious cocktails especially the run Old Fashioned, so smooth. We will definitely be back, hopefully soon.Thank you again.

Always amazing and friendly, we enjoy every time we visit ☺️ highly recommend

We came for my daughter’s 5th birthday as she was requesting a tomahawk steak. The food, service and atmosphere were all lovely. Kayla was our waitress and she was great, she even went out of her way to make a mocktail for her birthday which she loved. Will definitely be back

Came here for a Sunday roast today and it was fairly good, although a couple of things were disappointing. We both had the beef sirloin and shared a side of cauliflower cheese. For drink I had the bloody Mary. The bloody Mary was quite watery and lacked a lot of flavour or kick although I did like that they had salt rimmed the glass. The roast itself was decent, the meat was tender and the veggies were well considered and cooked. The Yorkshire pudding was very cool looking and tasty. The cauliflower cheese was a bit of a letdown, similar vein to the bloody Mary it was quite bland and a little watery. Overall it was good and if a friend books Cow & Sow for future roasts I would be okay with it. There were, however, a couple of typos on the menu which my slightly autistic brain got hyperfixated on. So if you're reading Cow & Sow team, maybe consider to amend the menu. "Gooked chicken" and "maple galzed porchetta" takes away from the professionalism of your establishment.

Special day made better with exceptional service and food.

5 * all round. Great food. great experience

Very impressed with the service and quality of food. Probably the best steak we ve had anywhere. Its a good location and nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend and will be returning on our next trip the Bristol.

Lovely restaurant serving delicious food and drinks. I loved the slow cooked pork belly main, and the Apple Pie Martini. Service was excellent.

Sunday lunch on Mother's day was a revelation. Brisket of beef cooked in beer rosemary and garlic with all the trimmings and chocolate delice to follow. Flavours fit for fine dining, no less. Unexpected and vastly appreciated. No idea, if this is typical of everyday fare, but on this one showing, expectations were well and truly exeeding. Very good and charming service and if a tad slow, who's complaining? This is a restaurant to watch. If today's showing is typical, I say if, then there is a new star in town.

Service was amazing, I have had better steaks. Béarnaise sauce amazing

Another excellent experience at the cow and sow fantastic restaurant with great staff love it here

We booked the venue for a business lunch and couldn't have wished for better. Booking was easy, service was great and the food even better. thanks team!

Had a great time at the Cow and Sow on Queen Square. The chateaubriand was outstanding, probably the best I’ve had. The peppercorn sauce was excellent and unlike any other I’ve tried before. Don’t be put off but the prices, they’re only slightly more expensive than some similar places but the food is worth every penny. You really must try this restaurant.

absolutely lovely place and lovely lovely staff

Delicious food. We had a sharing starter, I loved the chargrilled pineapple, we enjoyed all the various selection. My steak cooked to perfection. We're not vegetarian but my son tried the butternut squash Wellington, very tasty. It's nice to try. Daughter had the Pork Belly and said it was excellent. One tiny downside the house malbec was a little disappointing. Our server Mickela was lovely and attentive. Definitely recommend and will certainly go again.

Strong Sunday roast - veggie wellington really tasty! Nice atmosphere and great service by Alina :)

What an amazing experience. Luke and Tom were epic servers and the food was perfect. Such a fab atmosphere, will be back!

We ordered the 1200g tomahawk medium rare, beautifully done and was served with blue cheese sauce and a peppercorn sauce. The blue cheese sauce was definitely our favourite. Broccoli and leek side dish and mac n cheese side dishes were a welcome addition too. Ambience of the restaurant was warm and welcoming. Staff were lovely and as someone who doesn’t really eat steak often enough to know the cuts well, Tik, our server explained really kindly and was super friendly too. Will definitely recommend and come again as was a decent price for a very lovely evening!

Our eldest is studying at UWE and turns 21 on Sunday so we drove down for an early birthday celebratory lunch. The Cow & Sow did NOT disappoint! We were welcomed with the warmest of smiles from Tik as were shown to our table. Food, drinks, service and environments were all on point... Adored the playlist during the lunch period and complemented wonderful dining experience. We WILL be back.

The restaurant was great, enjoyed the food (medium-rare ribeye) and the server, Alina, was lovely and helpful. She gave great advice and the food was amazing.

Excellent food & great service from attentive staff. Great small dishes and the blooming onion is a must, imho. Definitely on our must revisit list!

Been coming here since it opened. First class food cooked with love. Normally we’d come for tapas in the evening, but today here for Sunday lunch. If you come, try the porchetta, seriously tasty. Big up Aimee and the team

Nice venue, good food except for the rapeseed oil for dipping - I mean wtf. Steaks and side were quality and nice wine collection.

Faultless service , food spot on.

Ed and Kayla were so great, and worked so hard. It was my birthday and they really made the night. The food was great, and was surprised with complimentary champagne!! Overall 10/10 experience, would really recommend visiting.

Had a great meal here with a friend. Kayla was an amazing waitress. Friendly, accommodating and professional. Really great service all round.

The staff and especially Alina were excellent. Very friendly and professional. I would have expected the rib eye to be a bit juicier. Still excellent though! Would come back at any time. Thanks :-)

Delicious food. Great service by Kayla.

lovely food and lovely service especially from Kayla, thank you for being so hospitable!

Cooked the steak to perfection, great place for a catch-up meal.

Great steak and service, ate early so can't comment on atmosphere... Thanks to Alina our server

Popped in for a last minute lunch and wow what a place. Me and my partner both had the lunch set menu and we're so surprised at how amazing everything was, the food was perfect and the service was class. Thanks to Luke and Estelle

We got steaks, different cuts and sauces, shared sides. I had the fillet with blue cheese bernaise-stunning! Every single mouthful was delicious! Lighting and atmosphere was relaxing. Staff were friendly and efficient. Close to our accommodation was just a bonus, so glad we went!

I would add a photo but OMG this was so good I’ve eaten it. Unbelievable for the price. The flavour these guys are getting is Michelin starred flavour. I’ve eaten in a few and this is right up there!

What a amazing place the food was just fantastic with amazing staff and a lovely atmosphere

Great food and service, Tik was attentive but gave us time to enjoy the food. The salted caramel tart was a perfect end to our meal

Fantastic customer service from Seb and Lulce (sorry if i spelt wrong). We had lunch it was superb. Thank you

Really nice food and drinks. We felt a bit hemmed in sitting near the loos, but the service was great and really well timed. Great menu

Seb was a great server and we had a lovely time, great food

Zi was awesome! The food was delicious as always only complaint would be that they've taken Cowboy butter off the menu and my husband had been raving about it for a couple of months!

Ed was super helpful and we made a future booking then and there! A great lunch meal and back for dinner soon. Great job team

Ed was great. 10/10 service, 10/10 food. Chefs were on point.

Hosted dinner party for my birthday and the service was exceptional. All my guest was happy with their order and the level of service given. Staff was very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was very delightful. Only 1 thing I would say a better selection fish options as most of my guest wanted seabass which wasn’t available. but overall good restaurant I would recommend.

Delicious food - burnt ends 🤤 and flat iron steak cooked perfectly, and the mocktini was gorgeous too. Luke, our server, was good fun and looked after us very well. Set lunch was excellent value for money. We will definitely be back to try the burgers and other small plates, yum!

Very friendly, delicious food ! Table was a bit sticky

Had a great meal at cow and sow and our server Alina was super attentive and made us feel welcome. Highly recommend the blooming onion!

Alina was great at Service and the food was amazing

Excellent choice of steaks for all price ranges. Delicious sharer starter. Staff were extremely welcoming and attentive.

Beautiful meats, very tasty. We had a great evening and will be back again.

Really lovely vibe here. Served by Alina, she is so professional and kind! All dishes we ordered were very tasty, definitely gonna visit again.

Great food, reasonably priced and the service from Alina was excellent. The cocktails Cow & Sow and their version. Of the Singapore Sling, Sow Sling, was pretty authentic - endorsed by me, a Singaporean. All in all a great dinner place. Speak to Ed the manager for great recommendations. Cheers!

Stumbled across this place last minute with 3 friends and it did not disappoint. Food, ambience and service were amazing. Chloe (bartender/mixologist) kept us entertained with some great conversational topics but she may never forget sock mountain and this wine is quite "grapey" 👌... if you're in Bristol definitely look this place up.

Kayla was so kind and really showed her personality throughout service, food was wonderful- p.s she slays so hard!!!

Outstanding service from Zai; not only knew the menu, knew the best wine pairings and knew the vibe, but did it with an honesty that is hard to find. Porterhouse was banging, which we probably wouldn't have tried without Zai's suggestions. Got Beef? Leave it at the door and experience true Beef.

Really good food and lovely atmosphere, fab service from Kayla

Food was gorgeous and service was amazing, lovely place would definitly come back again 😊
