The Grain House in Bristol, City of

Good food, even English. Very cheap, for England.

The worst food and service ever. The food was low quality and tasteless, the staff weren't interested and hopeless, forgot about one of two drinks and brought the wrong dish. We only ate it because we were starving, but even though we regretted eating it.

two storey cafe / restaurant space, connected to a hostel. work friendly and spacious! the mango smoothie (3.95£) was delicious, food was average

Really lovely, 20 girls on a sports tour plus parents. Rooms lovely and clean as was showers. Breakfast was lovely and the staff were very accommodating. Will definitely return.

Beautiful place, really great services

Hidden gem for anyone needing a place to work away from home. WiFi is excellent and the staff relaxed and friendly (unlike the rather uptight and snooty Arnolfini). Made working away from home a breeze.

Amazing staff, i always feel very welcome when i stop by! Very good coffee <3

The Polish manager likes to break the law and publicly fire employees and humiliating them in front of other staff and customers. Also expected him to come in while being sick around the food because it’s “company expectation “. If you care about your health and also just general kindness of employees that serve you don’t bother with the grain house. Embarrassing for customers and the staff. Again I only know this because she broke the law and publicly fired someone for refusing to stay on in the kitchen after vomiting. Also he was in the right to refuse to come in on those days he was sick because surprise, surprise, he was on a 0 hour contract Shame on you lady.

Had a toasties meal deal - tuna melt, salad and hot chocolate. Overall £8 ( extra cream) The tuna melt was very good - it was creamy and was well made and toasted nicely. Really enjoyed it. The salad was very fresh, with vinegarette, and was tasty. The hot chocolate was warm, creamy and very generously proportioned. Overall I'd say 10/10 for a meal deal. The service was a bit slow though - we were a group of five and by the time the last order came through, I had finished my drink and food, so it would be better if this was worked on. Great and polite service otherwise! The patrons were very patient with us and engaging.

This Youth Hostel Association cafe can be found right on Bristol Harbourside. It's a great place to have a coffee or meal and all at very reasonable prices.

We called in for coffee and cake .. The staff were very friendly and helpful The price was very good and the cake was fabulous 👌.. Go there if you can you won't be sorry

Needed a coffee and a sit-down late in the evening. A nice man working there called Sol obliged me, nice to talk to and helpful.

Great place to start the day. Good coffee and bacon roll. Highly recommended

Waited 25 mins for Nachos. When I spoke to the manager it appears they'd been forgotten. He chased the kitchen up, but didn't offer any apology. When they arrived, they were disappointing; could have got better in Wetherspoons.

While the surroundings, cake and coffee were fine, the service was awful. How difficult can 2 espressos, an American and 2 slices of cake be? The waitress had to confirm what we ordered 3 times, we chose to go to the upstairs gallery but couldn't get up there without the waitress unlocking the door. The waitress brought our coffee up but forgot the cake. After a long wait and no cake, I had to go down to ask where the cake was. I was told impatiently that both waitresses were busy and they would bring it up. Couldn't get upstairs again so the waitress had to unlock the door again. Eventually, 3 slices of cake appeared, we ordered 2 and by this time, drinks were cold. We complained, no apologies, apparently it was our fault, not theirs. The waitress said she would get the manager. We're left waiting for 5 minutes, no forks for the cake! Waitress appears,manager is too busy. We ask for forks, which are on the tray in the waitresses hand. She lowers the tray for us to take the forks, again no apology. The worse thing was the waitresses attitude like we were a major inconvenience to her. We didn't bother to queue for a refund on the extra cake we didn't order. It would have taken too long and no doubt caused more confusion!

This is a temporary hostel at the moment

Me he alojado aquí muchas veces y es consistentemente bueno. Es cómodo (camas y otras áreas comunes) Gran desayuno pero no incluido. Precio razonable sabio. Alegre personal servicial. Muy feliz en todos los aspectos. Muy recomendable ??

Great place for coffee and cake.

An ok cafe in a location that deserves a fantastic cafe. The coffee was medicore, the food adequate, but nothing special. On the other hand the upstairs is a lovely space to be :)

Bristol Para verlo merece la pena visitarlo

We only popped in for tea and cake but it did the job.

Down Bristol harbour great day out for the family. Many places to see the shed ss Great Britain , and much. Dogs friendly, plenty of food and coffee shop.

With two young kids in tow we popped in to top up their sugar levels! Coffee and tea for the adults, massive chocolate muffins for the kids. Very reasonably priced. Staff friendly. Toilets clean and very accessible. Nice place

Disappointed with service and drinks were cold as well as the fries being overcooked.

Dropped in for a quick lunch and the cafe was not busy to say the least. Noticeable lack of vegetarian choices on the menu. A ham and cheese panini was available on the menu and my wife asked if she could have the ham taken out. She was advised this was 'impossible' presumably (because the paninis are pre-made and just put in a toaster) and no ingredients of any dish could be altered. So we ordered a Mediterranean Salad, a ham and cheese panini, elderflower and a dandelion and burdock. Well, eventually ordered it, as the waiter seemed virtually unable to understand or speak any English. Sometime later the salad arrived, along with the elderflower drink and a glass of Brewdog Porter instead of dandelion and burdock, and no panini. On querying this we were told that we hadn't ordered a panini!? Finally, 40 minutes after ordering it, it turned up. Given the number of eateries in a very small area around there I thought they would be making rather more effort. Wouldn't go back!

A good location, but not too impressed with the bar, . Found it cold, expensive and a poor atmosphere. A busy area and a lot of better places to have a drink

A busy venue which makes service rather slow. Ideal if you've got plenty of time, but best avoided if you're in a hurry.

All the other places nearby had no seats for coffee so we found ourselves at the Grain House. Coffee was fine but nothing special. We wouldn’t rush back but it’s fine.

Lovely and cozy place, good costumer service

Very nice quiet place to have a cup of tea, coffee or some food.

Sells cake (not home made/baked in house) and prosecco, along with the usual hot beverages. There are books you can borrow upstairs. It was a bit cold and dark when we visited and it can feel cramped when busy.

Staying at this place which is a yha youth hostel with a cafe/bar at the reception area . It's a very clean and friendly place and is conveniently located for exploring central Bristol .

Took ages to get served. Then delivered two/three dishes. Went to counter to chase up missing dish, “told it has been ordered”. No apologies. Dispute the fact that myself and my wife had finished our dishes. Waited another 15 minutes, chased again “there has been a mess up with the order”. 20 minutes later still not arrived. Chased again. In the end Took the pizza as a takeaway, when my daughter took one bite it was undercooked. Empty apologies, zero empathy, zero customer service.

YMCA place in Bristol Docklands. OK, sort of.

Service et restauration médiocre

A chill youth hostel. Very pleasant to live for a few days. Near the center, the « we curious » et some bar. There is a WiFi well working on all the hostel (expect our bedroom). The English breakfast was quite something. All was really good to eat. On the other hand, I’m not so keen on the orange juice. Sometime, the room smelled food but it was bearable.

The grain house is really good situated, it’s near to the city center and it has a lovely view. The hotel is really beautiful and looks cosy. It’s wall has wanderful drawing. The personnel are smiling and kind. The only thing that me and my friends didn’t really like, was that our room had an unpleasant smell and that our electronic key didn’t always works so we had to go to the reception every time. The breakfast was tasty and you have the possibility to serve yourself again. Globally the hotel was very good and I recommand it.

I definitely recommend this youth hostel to everybody, even if our room had a weird smell, our stay was pleasant. Firstly, the breakfast is really great, there is something for every tastes (British breakfast, croissants, cereals, ...). Then we have little lunch packs with sandwiches, a fruit, water, a chocolate bar, ... to eat during the day which is very clever! For evenings, we always had good food. Some desserts taste were a bit surprising with a lot for sugar but in general, the food was good. There is also a little pub (with a big painting on the wall) on the ground floor which is cool! Ps: there's free Wi-Fi ;)

The grain house is a good hostel, there is a good atmosphere and the whole team are friendly. And above all a magnificent view. You can find free wifi everywhere even in the rooms. By in my room lack of toilet and shower and an unpleasant smell throughout the stay. Lunch nothing to say and lunch pack too simple. But for a few days stay I would stay there again.

After struggling to find somewhere to eat cos it was Saturday evening and everyone was watching the rugby! We stumbled across this little cafe. I had the cod goujon burger and my husband had the Angus beef burger, the portion size was good and reasonable priced. Will visit again.

We waited for our food for 40 minutes before going to ask where it was. It seemed they had forgotten about us. When it eventually came it was not as stated on the menu, and they got one of the side orders wrong. We won’t be returning in a hurry!

We stopped for a snack on a hot Bank Holiday Monday, they were quiet the cafe did not have much outside space, we ordered the 3 x mezze for £11 and a couple of coffees, the "Feta and Olives" and the "Mediterranean Vegetables" were OK and served with flat breads. The "fully loaded" tacos were excellent and to be honest would have been enough for lunch for the both of us with out the extra dishes. Coffees were fine and service was friendly. I was torn as if this was an Average or Very Good and settled on very good on the strength of the Tacos. It's actually the restaurant attached to the YHA so there were lots of people coming and going to the rooms above, but it did not matter. It deserves to be busier that it is.

Visité este café con un amigo en una noche soleado de finales de mayo. Elegimos este lugar porque no estaba ocupado cuando todos los demás lugares en estrecha Quay era apisonada. Teníamos hambre así que pedimos una pizza margarita gratis del menú - razonable @ 7 libras y unas patatas fritas con queso de chaqueta. La comida llegó después de 10 minutos, lo cual fue muy sabroso y dio en el clavo. Pedimos una botella de Prosecco bien fresquito de la nevera; nos dieron copas de vino en lugar de champán vasos, pero aún así era muy bonito. Para el postre pedimos una porción de la tarta de chocolate capa y un trozo del pastel de limón. Ambos estuvieron deliciosos.

Ayer paró para salir de la lluvia. Teníamos dos chocolates calientes que eran de un tamaño razonable y a un precio decente a £2. 25 cada uno.

Después del almuerzo tuvimos un pasear por Bristol. El muelle es preciosa y hay muchos sitios para parar y tomar un café. Este es uno. Esto es en realidad parte de la Youth Hostel, pero es un largo camino de lo que recuerdo de YHA. Alojamiento por encima y cafetería en la planta baja. Café y pastel eran geniales y parece como un lugar de reunión para la gente de todas partes. No estaban sirviendo la comida caliente cuando estábamos en pero me tomé una foto del menú de tapas para darle sabor. Histórico, interesante y una parte preciosa de su reurbanización. Vale la pena visitar.

En un frío y húmedo día blustery el grano de la casa era un hallazgo. No nos dimos cuenta de que era parte de la YHA haber calentado por tener una bebida caliente y un pedacito de tarta. Había 7 de nosotros y el lugar nos acomodó. 3 libras, café y pastel para lo que podría ser mejor. Pastel de bonito también! Me encantó la enorme Bristol soy uriel" que aparece en una pared. Muy informativo. Así nunca, nunca hubiera conocido Ribena se originó en Bristol.

Que habíamos sido al ver las últimas exposiciones en el Arnolfini y queríamos algo de refrescos. El bar arnolfini estaba muy concurrido, así que entramos hacia afuera en estrecha Quay y girado a la derecha, siga recto hasta el grano de la casa! ¡Que sorpresa! Un ambiente realmente encantador, el personal super, no muy llena, muy limpio, y el té no sólo era abundante (un gran estuche de completa) pero también muy barato, como los bocadillos! ! ! Nos lo pasamos genial! Sin duda volvería allí.

We were there for two days but those two days were fantastic. The rooms were clean, comfy and inexpensive. For breakfast there was all sorts of delicious food available. Plus the free wifi helped

Relaxing environment to enjoy a drink and some food. Very reasonably priced.

Ingredientes Youth Hostel moderno es una delicia. Limpio. El desayuno está bien (no genial, pero razonable para el dinero). Poco cafetería es muy razonable. Un poco delgado, pero todo el personal servicial y agradable. Maravilla - hizo algunos recuerdos muy felices para mi familia.

Como el centro de Bristol y siendo ni YMCA dedicado o un hotel restaurante Casa El grano parece caen entre dos taburetes. El bar está dividido en un área de servicio y un escritorio de recepción. Pedí un almuerzo ligero que venía después de una corta espera, sin embargo, no fue un gran nivel y se sirve con una taza de café amargo. Los alrededores eran nada especial y más de una semejante a una 1970 union bar estudiantil que una buena cafetería. Sitios muchos más mejor por el puerto del lado...

Cuando lo necesitas para dormir por el precio más barato. Es para personas que no tienen mucho presupuesto. Se puede beber, comer y más.

Si necesitas ir a dormir en este hotel. Pero la comida no era bueno. La persona que trabaja allí es muy amable y te puede ayudar si quieres. Gran ambiente si estás con amigos.

Having failed to get in to a neighbouring attraction's noisy café, we were happy to stroll into this deserted-by-comparison, quite peaceful and certainly relaxed café and get food service on Mother's Day. The decor is fresh and modern and made sense once we'd spotted it was a YHA. Crucially though, we didn't feel out of place or at all unwelcome as non-residents.We seemed the only ones eating so slow delivery of our order was understandable, frankly I'm amazed there was a chef in. We sampled 4 snack plates - the pan fried chorizo was heavenly and potato wedges plentiful. The menu variety was sufficient that we could make a good if inbalanced fist of a lunch in our preferred pick-and-mix tapas approach but there were expected and unexpected larger plates available if we'd have wanted. Together with 2 soft drinks our bill came to c.£17 which felt good value and supportive of a great organisation - the YHA has come on a lot since I last used one! This isn't sophisticated fine dining but I'd imagine more than covers its guests' needs.

Stopped for food at this dockside venue. Staff OK and so was what I ordered. Interesting surroundings ............. until I took a seat. I had ordered by now. Tables were grubby, seating was dirty and "disintegrating". My food was brought to the table on a piece of wood needing a good scrub! Couldn't wait to leave. This is a front of house for a hostel BUT if this is what is on display at ground level .... would you take a ROOM?

A really disappointing lunch with my two children. Lots of claims about quality ingredients, but the burger tasted cheap and they forgot to prepare my son's pizza. When they eventually delivered it, it was drowned with really nasty cheese. My daughter's children's bolognaise was tiny compared the the huge gorgeous dishful she'd been serviced in a close by, very posh restaurant the day before - for the same price! Also, there were too many staff here, all moving at a snails pace.This may be a great YHA, and I wasn't expecting the earth in terms of food, but they really could have done so much better.
