The Flight Lounge in North Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A middle review because the food was actually rather good, but some communication skills needed by the staff. Good points: The food was lovely! Honestly a lovely friend breakfast, tasted wonderful. Also had a bacon sandwich for my little one and that too was great with doorstop bread and runny egg. I'd give the food 5 stars. Another good point was when my partner accidentally spilled his coffee within 5 seconds of having it, they kindly gave us another one and brought over tissues and a bin whilst we cleaned it up! Bad point: I booked a table a week before (or so) and explained it was a special occasion. That occasion was telling my partners 8yo that she was going on her FIRST ever holiday, and on a plane. Showing her the airport, the planes. A BIG deal. Great surprise. I told them this. We were told we reserved a table. Great. Got there, no one around. Waited and waited but no one. Looked around and it was somewhat busy but not overly but there was a table, with reserved on it. The only table and it was for 4. So we assumed this must be it. So we sat down. I know, you can say "well you assumed" but there arent many tables and only one was reserved - which i specifically did! Kids comfy, 10 minutes later a member of staff says "sorry you can't sit here, a customer comes every week and thats their table". So I ask "where is ours, we reserved" and his response "don't know" and "can't remember". It's a bit of to and fro to find out where we can sit and he just shrugs and walks off. We find another seat (there were two empty ones), move the kids (including 2yo in high chair and unfortunately away from the window). When 45 minutes later this customer comes in. It's a single gentleman. They made a family of four move, with two small children, because a gentleman wanted his table, a table for four. Now, I'm sure he DOES come in weekly. But when a family reserve, put a reserve sign up. Why was his reservation more important than ours? It really left a bitter taste in our mouth. Because clearly: 1. Our reservation was pointless. 2. The member of staff didn't care. 3. Clearly some people have preferential treatment. Our kids wanted to watch the planes. That's all.

Great as usual.been here a few times now.

Love this Cafe. I don't want to shout about it too much or you all will be there !! You won't be disappointed

The food and coffee were nice. However, the lady taking the orders is rude and miserable. We've been here twice now, due to cancellations because of the weather. Both times she has been the same. People are spending a lot of money at the flying school. The least she can do is be polite and smile. The sandwiches we bought were nice, as was the accompanying salad.

Great place for a lay over. Take rental car bus stop 2 to rental and walk over. Opens at 9am Massive twin engine breakfast and good lunch. Nicer than airport hanging out.

The vue that I was promised was of the runway but you could watch people get on and off the planes, the food was good the chips were spicy and but the biscuit was great the atmosphere was slightly quite as it was lunchtime I will probably go to my other spotting locan but maybe coming it for a drink otherwise a great Cafe

What a great spot, overlooking Bristol Airports runway, lots to see, planes taking off, helicopters and all things aviation. Food and service was excellent. Best Ham, egg and chips I have had!

Great location, friendly staff. Perfect space to watch the planes or sit and wait for your loved ones delayed flight like i did

Best breakfast always .. quiet plane watching spot brilliant xx

Been three times and love the food, service and the planes!

Went today as partner had been and recommended lovely to watch planes etc I had a chicken, bacon and Mayo wrap which came with chips. The chips had peri salt on which was not nice at all and we were not asked if we wanted it. The wrap had chicken and bacon sandwich filling in which didn’t taste of anything I was at least expecting fresh chicken breast and bacon for £9 don’t think I’ve ever paid for food somewhre and had sandwich filling lol. however my partner had ham egg and chips and did enjoy his however the egg had been fried long and was hard underneath which made it difficult to give to my 10 month old baby. I am now hungry and having to go elsewhere to spend additional money for lunch.I’d advise getting coffee/drink and not any food. 2 high chairs - 1 was covered in food clearly not been wiped down even the one I put my child in wasn’t the cleanest it could’ve been it wasn’t busy in there either so could’ve been done. Breakfast menu looked a lot better. Would never return.

Loved the tasty food, friendly staff and excellent view of the planes! Will definitely be back.

Poor service cold toast with some sort of butter imitation spread thickly on top, sent back not wanting to risk another, no refund offered. Wong go again.

Always pop in if I'm working remotely..don't forget to ask for a parking permit

What a fantastic little cafe good food good service and very pleasant place to have breakfast. Enjoyed it muchly and will use again. 5 star everything.

Great place to watch general aviation traffic at Bristol Airport.

Lovely place, staff friendly. If you go by car you will need to get a car pass at the main entrance to the building where the cafe is. Or you may get a ticket.

Very nice venue. Great staff and lovely coffee and baked goods. 10/10.

Doesn’t open the times shown, was shut 230 on a Sunday for food, was livid I was starving. Joke, so upset.

Good menu, excellent food with quick, professional and friendly service in pleasant and interesting surrounding.

Lovely breakfast the sausages were lovely makes a change to the usual jumbo deep fried things that alot of cafes give these were good quality, the views onto the private run ways whilst eating was actually really nice, staff very attentive too well done guys 👍

It is not 100% part of Bristol Airport so don’t go there with too much expectations or them to be fast serving if you are in a rush because is not meant to be for the public - it is mainly for the workers and the flight school students, that is why - so if there is no food be considerate and if there is be patient - It is a small little cafe to wait for picking up someone from the airport during the day.

Really lovely find. Right by the private jets and the flying school. We had a lovely fresh breakfast whilst waiting for our son to come back from holiday. The cafe was clean and welcoming. The staff were friendly. You need a permit from them to park by the cafe but that was easy. We will be back 👍👍

What a lovely surprise. Great location if you like aircraft, lovely staff and super food . We will most definitely be back.

My son wanted to watch the aircraft. This cafe is on the site of the flying school and right next to the private airfields attached to the main Bristol airport. It was really good. And the staff very friendly and attentive. we arrived 45 minutes before they stopped doing breakfast and started lunch. We wanted lunch so said we would wait until 12, but the chef said he could do lunch early for us. The food was amazing, plentiful and seemed like high quality restaurant food. Really impressed and will definitely make this a regular stop. Parking is free, just tell the staff and they will give you a ticket to put in the windscreen

Great staff and coffee. Great stop for aviation anoraks😅

This is a great little cafe over looking part of the runway at Bristol Airport. It is located by the private planes so presents a great view. The staff are great and the menu, whilst limited to a few different meals, sandwiches and snacks is always so nice.

First time I have used this cafe, excellent breakfast with nice coffee, staff helpfull and pleasant especially as I was in hurry.

Nice position, clean and friendly staff

Today myself, my mum and 2 small children went for mother's day Sunday lunch. We absolutely loved it, really good food at great prices. Fantastic service and such a treat to watch the planes take off. Will definitely be back.

Excellent food, generous portions, first class Staff.

Visited for the first time today, will definitely return for either breakfast or lunch. Managed to park in small car park at the side, not sure where you can park if this is full. Good prices, we had a Hot chocolate and coffee together with toast and jam all under £10.

Great breakfast and they served us breakfast after 13:00 and that was very kind of them. The food was excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful

Very nice, lovely staff friendly and helpful. I haven't eaten here yet! Coffee was very good.

I spend a lot of time visiting random cafes up and down the Country and this one is amazing, friendly staff and great food. Highly recommend

My son is learning to fly here and while he is up in the air it is the perfect place to relax. The Sunday roast is very good and value for money. All the food I have had here has been very good. O yes the breakfast is to die for.

Had a delayed flight so paid for our family to enter the Premier lounge. Plenty of choice where to sit. Free WiFi. Choice of 2 hot meals. Reasonable quality. I had curried butter chicken but it was over cooked. Good selection of cheeses, snacks and drinks. Service good. Good value for money if you have time to wait for your flight.

Absolutely fantastic experience!! Staff was amazing especially pilot Martin who took us into the sky... food was great a smashing breakfast 👌🏻 Hopefully we will be back again ☺️

I met up with family at The Flight Lounge today, I haven’t been in here for quite a while, and in the meantime a car park has been built next to it, which does confuse things a bit, but if you follow the signs to Flight School it’s in the same place. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Sunday roast was lovely and you had a choice of either two or three courses. Between us all courses were tried and everyone said how great the food was. I didn’t have starter but my homemade strawberry cheesecake was delicious the only downside was having to share it with my 6yr old son who had opted not to have the pudding!!! Big thumbs up and will definitely be back.

Just come home from a family lunch at the flight lounge and I can honestly say it was one of the best roast dinners I have ever had!!! And excellent value for money I will definitely be back again really good fresh veg perfect all round

Breakfast is served 0900-1145,and lunch from 1145 -1530.I opted for the lunch and selected my favourite Scampi ,served with salad ,chips and bakeed beans,a huge plate of which was placed before me.Really tasty and very hot,had some coffees,my other friends chose breakfasts but no problem as they were quite flexible about times,everyone very happy with their meals all freshly prepared and cooked,we had coffees quite a good selection of these, or beer or wine if you wish.You do not have to be a member of the flying club to visit,in the summer there are tables outside where you can sit as well,very good to keep the kids interested with the aircraft parking next to you on the bizjet apron.Very friendly and exceptional service.

Visited as part of a corporate charity event. Nice food great staff. Good for plane spotting.

It's at an airport of course, though the guys serving were super, friendly and helpful. Good Cappuccino too.

The queue for anything is so long, bless the 1 member of staff serving very polite and going as fast as she can Top tip it’s cheaper and easier and less stressful to use the main facilities

Whatever happened to the airport business lounge? This one is full of families with children going on holiday - I have nothing against that, but so need a business lounge and this is the only lounge available. I say available, it’s not, it’s often full of pre-paid package holiday guests so business customers with an annual pass can’t even get in. My entry success is less than 50:50 over the past 12 months.

Amazing food and super friendly staff. Here you have the nowadays quality food. Chicken Curry was top!

I would not recommend anyone to visit this lounge . We paid for 2 adults and a child , very limited choice of food . Most items that we asked for ( and others ) were told they had not received they’re delivery , there was no provisions for children . Most of the tables were reserved , we were in there a hour and a half and nobody turned up . A waste of £66 - I shall be asking for a refund , many complained that afternoon , my son wanted a bread roll but yet again there was none , a staff member asked if he was gluten intolerant as that bread was for those customers !

Flying out to Krakow from Bristol using Silver Car Park. Flight was 14.30 so we were looking for somewhere to have a meal close to airport. This place was recommended to us. Actually within perimeter of airfield. It is part of Bristol Flying School and is a very good place to eat ideally situated right next to Silver car parking. The menu is quite small but has enough for everyone from sandwiches/snacks to small meals.

Really friendly, excellent coffee and fantastic full English breakfasts. Like good British cafes should be.

A great place to take the kids to watch the planes or have some decent food before or after a flight. If you park in the long term silver car park then thia should be a stop off if you dont want airport. Next to the flying school and simulator with outside tables. Very friendly service.

Aspire lounge was amazing the food was really good quality, the staff where very friendly and the drinks where great. I’m not sure how the staff kept their cool but there was a lady getting very irate at them for things they couldn’t make happen any quicker so hats off to them! Seating was comfortable and the overall morning there was lovely.

Wonderful view. But closed 2.45 even though we booked. Flying staff gave us a well desrrved coffee. Delightful people.

Been here several times, for breakfast, for lunch, and just for coffee. It’s a great place to sit and watch the planes. Food is good quality although quite a small menu. It could be pricey if you have a few children with you! Staff friendly. You can sit inside or out and the fact that’s it’s well used speaks for itself. We will be back!

Close to all the action .. and a great non-greasy breakfast!

Lovely in environment, great service. Worth a visit 👍

Boy the best view from here but drink and food was good value foe money

Good genourous food and nice also. Reasonable price..

Lovely little place, clean, tidy and very friendly. Lovely food also

We had a good curry here. Plenty of it and reasonably priced. Very small area to sit in and gets busy, so you need to go early if you want a table. Friendly and clean.

Lovely cappuccino and friendly atmosphere.

Great cafe right next to Silverzone parking, very efficient service & cheaper than the airport 😁

£15.74 for two drinks. Save up before you fly from Bristol. At current conversion rate that is over €17.50

Clearly had a different experience than others here. Turned up with two kids to watch their Mums plane leave Bristol. Found the staff harried and abrupt, refusing to serve breakfast menu despite it being 11.30 am, 15 minutes before they supposedly end it. Fairly rude with no apology when I enquired about alternative options, so we left. As you'll see from my other reviews Im not a ranty individual, generally giving 4/5 stars all the way. But bad experiences need highlighting too.

Hassan the chef made me a chicken baguette for lunch and it was so good. It was just so delicious. I just wanted to savour every mouthful. The service is quick and friendly, the food is really good and fresh, and their are plenty of options. Plenty of room to sit either inside or outside and great for families with kids who like watching planes. Highly recommend The Flight Lounge for a pre flight breakfast or lunch or if passing by just drop in for something to eat or a coffee. Prices are very reasonable too.

The flight lounge was merely and add on place for lunch after a flight lesson, however we will definitely back for the food!! The soup was probably one of the best I’d had and freshly made.Halloumi salad was fresh and not your typical bit of lettuce and tomatoes ! Natasha was our hostess and was so friendly. We sat outside and watched the flights in the sunshine. Really superb food!!

We have used the lounge on many occasions before flying out of Bristol , but after this occasion don’t think we will be using it again . £4,99 for a small glass of prosecco ,no coke or Pepsi due to sugar tax ,hardly any food available ,definately no longer worth the money .

thew aspire lounge is at the airport terminal, this is the flight lounge at the flying school.

Heerlijk betaalbaar eten, aardige bediening, vlakbij het vliegveld met uitzicht op de vliegtuigen! Super.

We have just used Aspire Lounge in Bristol Airport on our trip to Scotland and yet again Aspire has come up trumps ! Excellent food, well presented and exceptional staff to boot Well done all at Aspire Bristol Highly recommended And Thank you

Brilliant food and lovely setting

Visited the Aspire Lounge at Bristol Airport, and it was well worth the money! We were greeted by friendly, helpful staff - even at 4.30 in the morning - and found the seating very comfortable and relaxing! The food was plentiful, with lots of choice - always fresh and constantly being replenished. No problem being served with drinks and the area was always being kept clean! The only downside we found, was the WiFi was not very good, but that was only a minor inconvenience. Will certainly be doing this again!

After having subjected my digestive system to violent abuse by Dexter's, Brunel et al, at Bristol Airport, after many years I discovered the Flight Lounge. Their welcoming, pleasant service is delivered by people who can speak intelligible English who are not at all complacent or consumer-indifferent. The breakfast was tasty, wholesome and nicely presented and caused me to wonder whether I was actually eating at an airport. When you are about to enter the Silver Zone car park please turn right and avoid being ripped off at the many "eating venues" at the airport.

Chose a bacon and Brie sandwich, fantastic food and presentation. Been in for a roast before, definitely the best place for one in the area. Open on bank holidays as well.

Always welcoming and polite, very clean

Los cambios que hizo hace dos semanas no son grandes hoteles preferentes antes! ! NO PARA Gin & Tonic tonic‍ ♀ ️. . Selección pobre, no sé si después de usar este salón antes de un vuelo por últimos 4 años que volvería a menos cambios para mejor! ! No tonic‍ ♀ ️‍ ♀ ️

Bien, qué encontrar. Si vuela o fuera de Bristol, este es el lugar para comer. Aparcamiento silverzone junto a y a sólo 5 minutos en coche del aeropuerto.

This is lovely, so relaxing and I would recommend being here if you can. Nice atmosphere nice drinks and relaxing comfy seating.

Very peaceful & comfortable Lounge. Great Selection of Hot and Cold food along with fine selection of drinks. Hosts were most attentive and seved promptly.

We love the flight lounge!! Food is fantastic sunday roasts and breakfasts especially, the staff are so friendly and welcoming I do and will recommend to everyone

Después de varios intentos de contactar por teléfono, reservamos una mesa en línea a través del enlace web y recibido el número de reserva. Al llegar esta tarde, me dijeron que no había sitio web de reserva en línea "Qué?" con un miembro del personal diciendo 'este sucede siempre". Las fotografías de la página web (mostrando manteles) engañosa ya que este no es el de la presentación durante el día. Una chaqueta de patata y bocadillos eran todos que estaban disponibles porque los martes 'Como nos dijo con brusquedad personal poco atento. Muy decepcionante ya que era para una ocasión especial. La opción de reserva en línea necesita quitar si no funciona y las fotos tienen que ser más representativo.

The wine I had to calm my flight nerves was expensive but what else can you expect in a flight lounge?There is a good selection of places to eat, from burgers to more up market meals. We eventually had a burger king but that would never be my first choice although my husband likes them.but we had this because I have slight mobility issues and need to sit down and also cannot use those high stools they have in a lot of the restaurants and bars there. And it was very busy the day and time we flew, I guess it always is, and apart for at Burger King where they had a couple of tables free near the kids play area, the only other place to sit we could see was those high stools that I can't get onto.But we did get a seat and the range of shops and restaurants is good. we were flying to italy which is in the Eu so could not use the duty free and the other shops are pretty expensive, even a packet of cigarettes are more than elsewhere and of course the bottled water is too.But its an OK place to wait for a flight, I've been in far worse. Its got what you need. Places to buy food and drink, toilets and disabled toilets, enough places to sit if you are not eating and drinking etc

Dropped in yesterday for Sunday lunch with my wife. We both agreed that it was the best lunch we had eaten in a long time. The beef was cooked to perfection and the Eton Mess was fantastic.Well worth the month, excellent value!

We called in late on a Saturday afternoon only one piece of cake available. Some puddings available but not good value for money.

Travelled from South Wales for the grandson to see the planes and discovered the flight lounge. We were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived. The amenities are spotless and the service in "The flight lounge" was excellent. We had two Sunday roasts and a children's meal. The quality of the food was excellent as so was the value, two courses for £11.99. Against the room was spotless and we thoroughly enjoyed and will defiantly make the journey back for a visit. And would recommend it before you fly to.

Airport Staff are very helpful. good food and service. No problems, comfortable & clean airport. Would travel from Bristol again.

We now visit here every time we fly out! It is a quiet, very comfortable area where you can eat and drink as much as you like.There are also very clean toilets where you do not have to queue! You can stay in the lounge for 3 hours and is very cost effect when you consider the price of food and drink in the main area of the airport.

So as you arrive in the airport how much do you spend on food and drink? This is by far the most pleasant way to spend waiting for your flight. Look for offers on line then book, not as expensive as you might think. Everything is then free food and drink including alcohol and you can have as much as you want.GOT TO BE DONE

Sited next to the silver zone car park & overlooking the flying club we had a lovely lunch with our grandson who loves planes & helicopters. Great food, friendly staff, child friendly too. A best kept secret!

Okay, it's a little cheesy naming burgers after planes (no pun intended...cheesy) but that's not a criticism. It's just a fun thing they seem to do, and very fitting for the location. But...BURGER NIGHT!!! WOW!!!If you're a fan of burgers, get down here on Thursdays and you'll have the biggest smile on your face. I'm yet to try the Concorde Burger that has been reviewed below, but everything else I've had has been great!I have now started flying regularly from here, and I'm at the restaurant on a very regular basis. As a result, I feel it a little unfair that I write too many reviews. However, if there's anything amazing or awful, I promise that I'll pop a review on here.To put it simply, I love the food here, and the staff are so friendly. Only criticism, no space for bakewell tart on Burger Night :-(

I was lucky to have bought for me a flying lesson. The club member could have not been more friendly and welcoming. The whole experience was a pure joy.

It was late night at this popular flying club located at Bristol Airport (by the Silver Zone parking) and my daughter and I visited for a meal. Staff are really friendly, lots of aeroplanes around, a beautiful summers evening and pilots to chat to. It's not my first visit to this restaurant, this is just the first time I decided it was awesome enough to review ;-)We both ordered different Burger's, can't remember the name of my daughters burger, but she says it's easily better then Five Guy's ;-)My burger was just perfect, handmade burger, cheese, portobello mushroom, egg, bacon etc w/ salad and hand cut chips. It was just a perfect balance of flavours and a great end to a day. If you're passing by - pop in for dinner prior to dropping your car off at Silver Zone, far better than any airport food and priced perfectly.

Brilliant little cafe.Okay, I admit I'm bias because I love flying. I love one thing more than flying, bakewell tart! Oh my goodness!!! Stunning bakewell tart!!!Sat down with my wife, before my flying lesson, both enjoying a mocha and some of the nicest bakewell tart on the planet, watching planes take off and landing. Really cool experience and very relaxing.The only way this could have been improved, if it was free.After the lesson, I popped back to find my wife tucking into a nice little baked potato and beans, and another slice of bakewell tart sat on a plate waiting for me. Could life get any better?Highly recommended.

My girlfriend an I went here in September as we were informed by a friend of its good food and views of the airport runway. I ordered a large breakfast (for myself) and a tuna mayo baguette for my girlfriend. The Breakfast was superb, well cooked and presented. The baguette was freshly baked and came with a salad garnish and coleslaw which was also great. All in all, with drinks it only came to £10.40!!!Needless to say my friend was right about the views as we saw many Easyjet, Ryanair and Thompson jets landing and taking off. BUT the highlight had to be watching small private jets departing and arriving right in front of the cafe!I highly recommend visiting this place.
