The Eastfield Inn in Bristol, City of

Love this pub- the food’s great, the wait staff are lovely and it’s very family-friendly, with a nice outdoor play area and beer garden. It can get a little noisy inside when busy but well worth it for their Sunday roasts and their excellent puddings!

The Sunday roast is epic, the best roast dinner in Bristol and maybe the best roast I’ve ever had! I went in during the week and the menu is quite limited and the food was pretty standard but omg the Sunday roast - insane!! Can’t wait to go back!

I'm a chap of a very good eye for a fish & chips.....and they do a cracking one here. I definitely would say it's in my top 5 and I have had a fair few. Great service as well however when entering the staff weren't too welcoming but after that hiccup they were rather good and redeemed themselves.

I had Sunday roast and the food was scrumptious. There is a small playground for kids.

Large pub with garden and parking. Good food and friendly service

All good. Staff are even better.

Almost great. The climbing frame is warn out so my son can't climb up the slope. 10 mins work to fix with some battons, like a chicken coup ladder. The pizza is almost great, but unfortunately the oven isn't cleaned properly between pizzas so there is always loads of burnt bits stuck to the bottom. Really strong burnt taste. They just need a quick sweep every few pizzas and it would be 10 times better pizza. Also, the pine nuts are always burned black. Cover them with cheese or put them on half way through the cook. @staff, please start looking at the underside before you serve! Gross!

Such a great family pub. We come to the Thursday night quiz every week and it's the best quiz in the area. Great food, good prices, friendly service and a great quiz.

Booked a table for 18.30 and was promptly seated, then forgotten about! Half to three quarters of an hour later, my friend went to the bar to enquire about menus and was told "yeah, they're over there" and pointed to where they were located. She picked up three, as that's all that was there and had to ask someone from another table if we could use theirs, for the fourth person in our party. Very small menu. Went to look for the specials board, to find that there wasn't one! As the menu was so limited, most of our party went for the small dishes. We were told when we went to the bar to order (couldn't possibly afford us table service!) that there wasn't any aioli, so we went for plain mayo, then around 15 minutes later, we were informed that although two of our party had ordered the prawns, that there was in fact, only enough for one portion, so I swapped to the whitebait, again with no aioli. The food came out some time later, except mine, (a portion of chips and the whitbait) which came out 5 mins or so after everyone elses. An older couple came in and sat at the table next to ours and were immediately brought drinks over and handed menus. Then after a while, the chap came and took their food order! I don't know if they were regulars, but it didn't give a good impression. The food was good to be fair, although I struggled to find much smoked haddock in the smoked haddock fishcake and they try to make out they are some sort of flash eatery by advertising their "on the vine, Isle of Wight tomatoes," correct me if I'm wrong, but don't all tomatoes grow on a vine?! All in all a very disappointing experience and I can definately say that we won't be returning.

Went for dinner and had booked. There were lots of empty tables but had not been cleared from previous customers who’s eaten. Only 2 staff serving so long waits, when the food came we asked for more drinks but told we had to go to the bar ourselves, the q was long and only 1 person serving so we ate and left. Overall really disappointed with the service, lack of interest from those working. Food was nice though. The westbury park pub is much better for service. Really sad as this could be a great pubs

Really excited to visit having stalked their menu on Instagram since they changed hands! Looks YUMMY!

This review is NOT about the lovely young staff and young managers, or the quality of the food. The judgement is about the beer. It has been awful for days and it is down to the temperature in the cellar and lack of attention given to all that is functioning down there, I suspect. I am a regular, local and a member of Camra. I know that someone with experience needs to be regularly making checks down in the cellar. It is a conversation I have often had in pubs around the Southwest and have been impressed by the care and attention other landlords /landladies give to this. Obviously most money is made here from the food and functions and they do a great job in this area. Perhaps the locals and regulars that spend money on drinks but not food are less important (although the young staff seem to value us and are welcoming). Don’t let it stop you from visiting this pub if you don’t drink beer and love a fab homemade pizza!

We got 1 chicken roast and one veggie lentil roast. Chicken was delicious. Veggie lentil roast was too salty for my taste but otherwise lovely! Great atmosphere, beautiful pub, friendly staff. When booking, it's made clear that you only have the table for 1 hour, which made us feel rushed as our lunch arrived 30 mins in. Staff didn't mention the 1 hour limit, so I don't know if this is just something put on the online booking or something that is enforced during busier times. Will happily return.

Good food again, but unlike other occasions it was a bit slow arriving. Lovely friendly staff.

Best beer garden is Bristol , and one or the best pizzas I’ve had in a pub setting 😊

Been a few times and really love the pub. The garden is amazing and the inside is lovely. Unfortunately the food is expensive and varies wildly. It has recently gotten particularly bad as the portions have shrunk. They have experimented a few times with the venue (for a while they were trying to push tapas) but they really need to focus on classic pub food that is either better quality or a better price. At the moment it's definitely not worth going to eat but I really hope they work it out and hope this review helps push them to better food.

It was magical but your kids won't really like the sound in the place

Great pizza. Not much entertainment for older kids. Quite slow service.

Was £33 for 2 x pimms and a lemonade. Thought it was my Australian exchange rate in my iPhone at the time, but later at home I checked. Wished I'd asked, but also wish they'd got it right. Staff were pretty scattered.

The cauliflower wings and peach and mozzarella salad were 10/10. Staff super welcoming & friendly - would recommend!

Absolutely shockingly bad!!! Waited at our table to order, in the end went to the bar and tried to attract the attention of one of the 5 gormless staff who were talking amongst themselves, waited 45 minutes for starters listening to the toilet door and door to outside area banging constantly. Starter finally came - burnt king prawns, stale focaccia and overcooked cold whitebait, one minute into our starter the mains came???? We were told we had to have it now or it would go cold in the kitchen. Burger was tiny, burnt and rock hard, we declined to eat any of it, I paid for our drinks and we left vowing never to return again - don’t go!!!!

Service was good, beer was good, atmosphere wasn't amazing but to be honest it is a very large pub, to get an amazing atmosphere would be very difficult

Relaxed atmosphere with loads of room inside and out, good range of beers and huge beer garden with kids play areas

A large pub with a good range of food and drinks. A relaxed place to come and spend time with friends.

Brilliant pub visit. Delicious food and wheelchair accessible! Our server, Arthur was attentive and poured great pints.

Great family pub. Really good food. Staff always helpful and friendly. Recommended this venue.

This used to be my local but unfortunately a recent trip here has resulted in me not returning. Wheelchair and pram access was locked even though we had arrived 2 hours after the pub opened. Rude customer service when asked for help. When asked another member of staff to unblock and unlock the 3 access points, her reply was an unfriendly ‘well you could’ve just asked for help’ instead of any apology. Nobody should be made to feel like they are an inconvenience. Food is good but absolutely not worth returning based on the poor customer service and experience.

Not wheelchair friendly, nor pram friendly if that's the case. In our case staff were rude and should react better to customers requesting assistance with access. Wheelchair access is more often than not locked, and if you can get in there is tables and chairs in the way. Poor from a community business. Needs to do better.

7.5 for small plates of food. 5 tiny spears of asparagus with a dodgy looking fried eggs and lamb kofta couldn't be any smaller on the most dense flat bread ever. Shocking price. Flavour was ok. If I wasn't with my daughters I would have taken ot back but didn't want embarrass them. It's a good locations but seriously poor food. Daughters had fish and chips which was tiny also. Can't understand why it's so busy. Over priced is an understatement

We booked a room for 70th birthday family gathering. Great food. Friendly staff with very good service. Thank you

Fabulous sunday roast. Very busy but great service

Loved the atmosphere and the young and friendly staff. Just frustrated that they didn't serve any hot drinks.

Wasnt here too long but atmosphere was great and it just seemed like a really nice pub. Actual lighted candles on tables and fairy lights!!

Atmosphere was good but clearly not to everyone's taste, as we used it as the venue for an afterglow following a joint concert with the Bristol Male Voice Choir and the A&S Constabulary's MVC. Great concert and lovely friendly drink afterwards. Would have been nice if they'd known there were 50 hungry blokes coming in, with partners and wives that they could have offered some ham or cheese rolls. They'd have made a killing!

Really lovely pub. Great spaces - we had a reservation in the conservatory but lots of nice nooks around. Service was fantastic, staff were attentive and friendly.

Me and my partner recently moved to the area and decided to give this place a try. We were warmly welcomed by the front of house team. After taking our seats and checking the menu we wanted to give the small plates a try for something different, this would give us the opportunity to try multiple dishes without wasting food. We tried the; Foccacia, buttermilk chicken tenders, Crispy ham hock, Monkfish kebab and the standout dish was definitley the scallops served with parsnip puree and sherry caramel. I highly reccomend visiting to taste this food yourself as my words will not do it justice.

Really great venue for private hire, lovely staff and food

First visit here, it has been done up and looks amazing, it's big, plenty of places to sit, and was busy and buzzing in atmosphere when I was there. The beer was great too, and the staff super friendly. It felt like a real family place and great with dogs too. Will definitely head back there soon.

Great big space, good for a meetup or a quiet drink in this pub. Good drink selection and food options!

This is one of the best pubs in all of Bristol! The Eastfield has amazing food! The nicest staff and a lovely play park for any children! As a vegetarian I find it hard to find a place with more than two options! But don’t worry this pub has many! Even on the menu it has a whole vegetarian section! I really do recommend going here for any occasion because you will always find something you like on the menu and have a great time!

still our favourite pub in Henleaze, had a wonderful family gathering here, loved the live music and the new tapasy menu was perfect for us.

Ordered rump steak and received a small steak with some chips thrown on like a 1980’s roadside cafe. That’s it - I’m done. Never returning.

Nice place for food, fish and chips was excellent, the burger not so good

Lovely atmosphere and staff. Perfect for an evening of drinks and nibbles.

Went to a work lunch here, very nice pub with a small menu but very well done. All food arrived at the same time with no problems. Place was spotless.

We have found our new pub for a Sunday family roast. Super staff, exceptional roast, great warm atmosphere and a full busy pub reflects how we arent alone in our praise for this place. No noted!

Held our Staff Christmas Party in the skittle alley on the 1st of December 2023. Kinitta and her lovely team bent over backwards to accommodate us - nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend this venue.

Great atmosphere, great choice of drinks, will definitely go back. We did not eat food so cannot comment.

I had the smoked chicken and chorizo pizza and it was delicious! The waiting time wasn't bad and the ice cream was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this pub

Must admit having a disappointing visit today. Call in for a snack and a drink at lunchtime. Having been told that they did not do sandwiches or rolls , we chose the Pork Pie from a rather overpriced menu sheet. At £7 each I was expecting something more than a pie slither of cheese, smallest piece of onion a relish- some crisps or crackers would have helped make the presentation somewhat. Whilst I cannot fault the ales offered - these too were priced at the top end for an out of town pub. As always, the pub was very clean and staff very welcoming.

After my bad experience the week before I was invited back witch I did and went with a group of mates and the service was amazing and the food was fantastic and I had a very better experience with no issue staff was very helpful and good I definitely will be wanting to go back again in the future. Want to say thanks to the Eastfield pub for inviting me back for a better service.

I would recommend this venue for music events and family gatherings. The food is great and so is the atmosphere.

Great pub for locals and visitors. Pitstop for us, got tickets for Bristol ensemble. chicken burgers and fries, just right.

I live next door in Studland Court. I'm wondering with my dog, do you have to book a table for Sunday dinner

Very disappointing. Beer (bitter) poor. Food ugh! Also overpriced. (Chicken burger- chicken nuggets on a bun overcooked) Sat night pub almost empty...says it all. Will not rush back.

Their chicken pizza very delicious and spicy I love it. If you have children , they have a playground on the back garden☺️ Perfect place to go with children and have peaceful meal at outside.

Wonderful private birthday party last week in the conservatory, great buffet and very helpful staff. Huge thanks to Kanitta and team for making it such a success

Excellent orange juice, nice pub. Good people.

Family and friends private gathering for a birthday 🎂 celebration Super buffet well organised and plenty for everyone Great support service and friendly bar staff Lovely outdoor setting as well Really excellent 👌

Had a spot on perfect beef Sunday roast here with all the trimmings. Chicken and pork belly also well received. Everything seasoned well and tasty. Would go back if in the area.

We've eaten here a few times now when visiting or just driving through Bristol...would recommend...food is consistent and service is brilliant. Only challenge might be parking but we've been lucky.

Inside it's dark and gloomy or large spaced out no mans land seating areas. It doesn't create a vibrant atmosphere. BUT if that's your thing... !! Food okay but service was good. Have been here a number of times with friends and I'd say it's better in the summer when you can use the garden.

Great food and wine served with a friendly smile. The waiter and waitress were very attentive. Will be back 😋

visited on a Sunday there was 4 of us the wait was very long between ordering and being served our meal but to be fair when it arrived it was delicious 😋

My husband and his best mate's favourite pub. Staff always friendly. Ale selection good, nice lattes as well.

Nice garden for kids to play in. Consistently good food.

...with friendly staff and a wonderful beer garden at the back with tons of room for kids to play. Our food was excellent too, I really enjoyed my huge burger and they have a decent selection of beer to choose from too.

Great place offers small and large portion sizes which is useful, very children friendly.. With a play park out the back. Recommended

Great pub with an excellent garden ideal for families with kids. Good selection of drinks and food. Spacious indoor seating and big outdoor play play area. Reasonable prices, friendly service.

Lovely pub. Big and spacious with a thoughtful garden. Nice kids area. But wonderful food and the staff are lovely!

I've been here a couple of times over the past few years. Overall it is a really pleasant experience. Friendly atmosphere, staff are polite and attentive, and there is a lovely outdoor area with a pizza oven. It's quite picturesque. It has a relatively small menu, but in my experience that's a positive thing. They're more focused on the quality of the dish. The bigger the menu, generally, the more rushed the final product is. In this particular visit I ordered the fish and chips. What is seemingly a basic choice, it was delicious. If you're unsure of the more out there choices on the menu, this is a fantastic safe option for fussy eaters. The overall atmosphere is casual but classy. The menu and prices reflect somewhat of a place thats a bit more on the fancy side. I do think the prices are a little steep for what it is to where I wouldn't return on a regular basis, however for every now and then as a treat, I would recommend visiting.

Always a great visit to reminise old times. Great atmosphere, staff were friendly and overall a great pub

Nice pub. Went for Sunday lunch. Couldn't fault the service or the beer garden, and the food was tasty. However, the menu was very limited (especially for veggies) and Sunday lunch was frankly too expensive.

We found this amazing unique venue in a perfect location in henleaze which was a perfect place for us as we got married up the road. There are too many stand out things Kanitta did for us. She was so accommodating we felt like we were in safe hands the whole time. Kanitta was so generous with advice and help in the build up to our special day and it was made even more special by her thoughtful gestures and going above and beyond to make sure our day went smoothly and to plan. I can’t fault her or the team it went so smooth she was patient and responsive throughout the process. The guests enjoyed the space and the food. Very impressed and the weather made the venue feel almost like home. The buffet was so tasty and the fresh produce prepared for our order was above what we were expecting. I personally loved the olives, tarts, salads, chicken wings, cheese selection. I would highly recommend Kanitta and the eastfield pub team. What an amazing experience.

Deceptively large pub inside, loads of seating and a great outdoors area. A decent selection of beer though I thought one was a little off. The food was great, nice fish and chips. There's a small car park out front.

Only had a quick drink Very nice though

Booked into the Eastfield Pub for Sunday lunch today with a friend and her son. This was our first visit. Excellent venue. Fantastic play area for the children. Service staff very friendly and attentive to diners. Food very nice and well presented. However....the menu was very, very limited. Choice of roast beef or a vegi option. Overall. Well worth 5 stars and certainly worth another visit. Wish I'd had a coat or cushion to sit on!!!!!!!!!

Lovely welcome on arrival butcombe was just perfect and was able to have in a 1/2 pint mug too! Ordered flat iron steaks which was larger than I thought cooked to perfection med rare with a lovely salad. The lovely staff were so friendly and very accommodating I would definitely recommend this pub. We chose to sit inside for our meal but the garden looked beautiful and plenty of space ! Well done Eastfield will defo be back again🤙

This is the only pub in all my drinking life ,started in 1980 , that was not prepared to change my peas for beans or a side on the menu. It was peas and peas only by order of the kitchen . And so it's a one star from me.

Lovely Friday evening at The Eastfield in the sun. Food and atmosphere was great and our children enjoyed playing in the playground. We were most impressed by the two members of staff (a young man and a young girl in a floral dress) who attended to a little boy who had fallen over and hit his head. They were both professional, kind, caring and attentive.

As a local resident, my family and I have often visited the Eastfield over the past 7 years since moving to Henleaze. There has been transition, and thankfully the pub survived the covid induced lockdowns. I can honestly say that it has improved a great deal since then, the menu and food has gone up to a different level and the return to an old fashioned pool table and darts in the bowling alley area is fantastic, not to mention the weekly pub quiz. Also, a special mention to a lovely member of staff, Grace, who during our last visit was polite, attentive and funny and really made us feel at home. We are very lucky to have such a great local pub!

Very quiet, but it was a Tuesday. Good food and beer.

Honestly the best lunch I have had in a long time, perfect location, beautiful garden, playpark to entertain my nephew. Food was delicious and staff so friendly 👌 had the aubergine schnitzel, so good, vegan and gluten free

Nice pub with amazing beer garden and good food menu. Prices reasonable for the area, cider £5.00 and beaverton £5.20. Loads of space inside and out so a great place for meeting a large group of friends.

Lovely pub with a fresh tasty menu

Nice enough pub. Cask ales selection can be quite poor. Frequently only one or two options and rarely is there a Bristol beer on. Staff and food very inconsistent.

Nice atmosphere and lovely pizza. Fast service and good value, well worth a visit.

Amazing! Great vibe, great drinks and food, great staff. Special shout out to Tom who really made the experience with his banter. Will be back when I'm in Bristol next!

Came in for food last Saturday, couldn't have asked for a better service! The staff were nothing but helpful with the children, keeping them entertained. Food service was super fast and delicious ordered steak and the lamb dish, absolutely incredible.

Visited the pub this evening, have had mixed visits on a few visits, but tonight was the last time I’ll visit. Sat down i n the garden, purchased a wine which was lovely. However, then went to order food and was told we couldn’t get food in the garden. Only ordered cheesy chips, prior to us ordering the waiters passed us delivering food to people also in the garden. Asked the lady why we couldn’t order food to our seat when she was delivering food to every other table in the garden, she replied it was too far to deliver food, despite as I said walking past us to deliver others food. Have prior visited for a large group which has been an absolute shambles. Kids meals arrived an hour after the adults, completely unacceptable. Steak ordered well done arrived rare, sent it back, came back just as rare and cold. Won’t be visiting again unfortunately because the vibe in this pub is nice, good garden, good entertainment, quite a shame really.

had a lovely experience and Tom & Joe were amazing ☺️

What a brilliant garden, the grandchildren loved the climbing frame and happy kids equals happy parents. Nice cider too!

Amazing experience. The service was really good. And it was Great for my toddler in the garden area. The food was 10/10 the fish and chips were the best I’ve ever had and I am a fussy eater. Lovely vibe with the family. Definitely recommend, a great family pub :)

Wonderful place. Friendly staff , great food . Very attentive and a great space . We’ve been to 2 parties in the different rooms . Both were great xxx

Fantastic pub, great food and atmosphere. Staff very friendly and efficient. Will definitely be coming again!

Nice local pub with a good range of drinks, quality staff and a lovely atmosphere. The only negative was that the door was sticking so there was occasionally a draught where we were sitting. That’s easily fixed I’m sure.

Passed by for a beer - very expensive! Only two or three people in there but the whole pub stank of fish? Put us off right away, finished quickly and left. Won’t be back.

I went to the pub on Saturday night for a meal with 3 friends. The fish and chips were good. THE staff were good. The pub was very busy. The ladies toilets wre dirty. I told A member of staff

Worst treatment ever! Was invited here with family for refreshments after a funeral, there was 25 of us in total, On arrival everyone commented on the smell of fish hitting you in the face, There was no welcome on arrival, nothing was ready just some cups and plates stacked up on a table.. it took a further 45 minutes for food to make an appearance after querying this with staff. The Sandwiches were of poor quality, 1 tray had watery Tuna Mayo, 2nd tray was sloppy red pepper Hummus with a slice of soft red pepper hanging out (never have i ever seen a Hummus sandwich) and the third tray nobody was sure what was in them..best guess was beef/ham or pastrami, cheese and a type of slaw with horseradish/ wholegrain mustard mixed in. We had 4 small children in total 3 of which being toddlers, 1 plate of plain ham sandwiches was the only requirement when booked which where intended for the the children, this wasn’t done apparently it was peppered pastrami..? needless to say none of the children ate these, We had only been there an hour & a bit when we where asked to move everyone away from the bar & into the corner.. when asked why we was told they had another party coming in, we was not told this when booking & in fact was led to believe we could use the area, even after an hour we never seen one other person come into the bar.. (Seemingly because the other quests were better looked after in the other room) We was rudely told we wasn’t watching the children and this was a health and safety issue.. this did upset everyone because it was not the case and seemed like the staff where looking for a reason to be rude. Every parent was with their child at all times, walking up and down with the kids in the area we thought was ok as it was booked.. Please tell me when at any one point was any child left unattended? One of which was asleep in a pushchair at the time & for toddlers who had just sat through a funeral service, id say they was very well behaved, you was advised of young children being there when we booked, From the off we was made to feel unwelcome and got the feeling the manager was not happy with the fact James had agreed a £200 budget for the food, being told we normally charge a lot more, we never agreed on any fillings, we actually chose chips instead of salad, and asked for ham.. we said we would be happy for simple fillings, as for saying we agreed to the chosen Hummus, tuna, beef is a straight out lie! Also saying we would allow kids to “play” behind a bar.. really? My 2 year old made a run for the bar entrance one time and was stopped promptly by myself We was promised it would look nice.. it didn’t , yes it was highlighted to us you normally charged more but you said you was happy to work to our budget and took our money, for this reason we was happy for less, we was happy to have the basic minimum and no one complained but what was served was just a joke and your attitude cost you us not settling the bill The treatment we received for people that have just been to a funeral and in a very emotional state was very unsympathetic We paid £200 for 3 trays of sandwiches and 5 small bowls of chips and 8 hot drinks! We never paid the outstanding £57 for “10% service charge”and £30 for 15 Teas because we wasn’t provided with what was agreed, We made 8 hot drinks from the 2 teapots you provided, not the 15 requested We instead received insults to our children And the service was non existent.. no one checked on us at any point the grand total was supposed to be £257 we already paid £200 upfront otherwise we would of disputed paying anything. The organisers was so embarrassed and upset as it was for her father that had passed and she wanted somewhere the family could all come together and spend the evening, such a disrespectful way to treat guests of a wake.

Looks nice of first appearance, but rude unfriendly staff & don’t seem to like children very much, not professional and over priced!
