The Lansdown in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great pub with a good selection of drinks and friendly staff. Nice garden with TV to watch sports. 2 for 1 burgers on a Tuesday is a must!

Cosy neighbourhood pub with large beer garden. Some good local beers

Food was truly awful. It took forever to arrive and seemed to be just frozen burgers and fat chips instead of fries as the menu stated. Some people on our table had food arrive 20mins before others. The hot dog was actually embarrassing, no better than a 50p ikea hotdog. Garden is as good as ever, but just avoid the food! Also the cask ale tasted like the lines hadn't been cleaned in a while.

Lovely pub with a nice garden, food is amazing as well and good sized portions!!

Nice old pub with some space out front and a big beer garden with large screen TV. Good choice of beers but could have done with some stronger IPAs

Great pub. We watched the rugby here

A very very decent roast. Big portions, lovely roasties and carrots. Range of cider on tap was great, and both inside and outside had a great vibe! My only gripe was the vegan wellington was slightly dry and a strange texture - still tasted nice, but I would have preferred it to be mushroom or other veg rather than pure vegan mince.

Very friendly staff, good atmosphere. They didn’t have two of the dishes on the menu which was disappointing

An underwhelming portion of chips. It’s a potato for gods sake. So cheap and they mug you off on the portion. Asked for more and they didn’t do anything.

Excellent pub friendly with a good selection of ales. Set meal.

Just awesome. Really good food.

Went here for a Sunday roast. Quality of the food was poor and came out cold, with the carrots etc being quite hard. After querying the quality of the chicken, staff never checked back to see how we were enjoying our meal. Would not recommend this place for food or service, there are many other places to visit in Clifton and Bristol that do much better roasts.

Had a delicious roast yesterday at the Lansdown, couldn't recommend it enough! Great atmosphere and staff!

Lovely pub with a good amount of space and varied beer selection. The outside is nice and there's lots of room upstairs. Also, they have lots of great vegan food options, including an excellent vegan roast on Sundays!

Went here for a beer and food while in clifton village the food was excellently cooked although a little pricey but if it's really good don't mind paying great range of beers lovely warm friendly attentive staff who always happy to help will definitely call in again the Sunday lunches here are amazing definitely a great place to go on a Sunday great little enclosed beer garden 😀 😊

My experience was pretty much as a fair few others have said - friendly and accommodating staff, but the food was extremely disappointing. Beer was fine, but there are many better places to eat in Bristol.

The owner and his partner are amazing and lovely

The choice of beer is excellent, the staff are always respectful, friendly and efficient, prices are fair and the atmosphere is welcoming.

Went for a Sunday roast dinner and it made sure I never return for food. The venue itself was lovely and staff seemed friendly enough but they love to have a chat amongst themselves. This just means go to the bar if you need any service then they’re attentive. Food was luke warm, veg was rock hard, cauliflower cheese sauce was like water soup and the odd beef choice to use sirloin did not work nowhere near as well as initially expected. There was also no baby changing facilities despite there being space for it. Understandably, not everywhere has to be family friendly but if you’re serving roast dinners on a Sunday in a big establishment, expect people with babies (I saw loads). As a result of this, we had to change our kids nappy in our car and it was a disaster.

Took my elderly mum out for Sunday lunch as a party of five and it was fantastic from start to finish. We arrived on time but our table was still being cleared. They offered a table upstairs but I explained my mum struggles with stairs and we were happy to wait. They got the table cleared really quickly, apologised and said they'd take a couple of drinks off the bill. They needn't have done that and I hadn't complained but it really does set a good impression. Vast array of beers to choose from before the food came. Chance to try samples for free too. Food arrived and was superb. We had all the different roasts and no complaints. If anything, there was slightly too much on the plate for some. Not moaning though because it was all cooked perfectly. Service was chilled but efficient. Young team, but all really switched on and helpful. Can't wait to return.

The food was luke warm and not that good . When we got the bill 12% service charge when it's a pub ? I'd had to wipe my table when we got there so not that impressed.

Honestly please don’t bother coming here, the pub is cold - no heating, and the chef is awful. We ordered lunch, it was a dry parpadelle pasta with a dry vegan Ragu sauce, basically dry quorn mince, awful. The crab burger was undercooked - clearly so because the batter was soggy and the crab itself was not cooked. The pub bar staff did not refund the clearly undercooked raw crab burger- saying the chef had argued saying it was cooked, well it wasn’t. Don’t bother - so many other nicer pubs in Clifton and Bristol. Didn’t manage to take a photo of the crab since it was sent back- but you’d expect the pub to refund food if it’s not cooked or sent back.

We had a great time at the Lansdown. It has a lovely, warm feel with great food and a good range of drinks. The staff were extremely accommodating of the many, many food allergies of our party, even finding an option off menu for one person. Would definitely recommend a visit!

Had a quick lunch in this very pleasant, very old little pub in the leafy, residential Clifton neighbourhood of Bristol. The Crabacado Burger was superb. Soft shell crab, in light buttermilk batter, with smashed avocado (guacamole) and kimchi, on a bun. Very tasty. Good selection of local craft beers and ciders too.

Amazing cosy pub in Bristol. Perfect stop on our day trip. Thanks to Alice and the rest of the team for looking after us so well!

Good pub with some decent beer on. Can get busy, but has a huge garden area. Snug by the fire.

A great place, a delicious roast, amazing service and very dog friendly!

The Lansdown used to be something of an also-ran amongst Clifton pubs, but it's really improved in recent years. It has a fine range of beers, has been nicely refurnished and has a good menu - but it still feels like a pub. Will definitely revisit next time I'm in Bristol.

Lovely staff and delicious food. Couldn’t ask for more. 😊

Fuimos con reserva y nos dieron mesa en ese momento justamente en la salida del jardín. Todo el tiempo entra y sale gente de esa zona porque también hay servicio de comida ahí. La puerta es grande y ruidosa y hacia frío realmente junto a esa enorme puerta. Los camareros no estaban sincronizados y pedimos cambiar la mesa. Pareció un grave problema y en el comedor de arriba había sitio más que de sobra. Creo que no son muy profesionales los empleados. Lo mejor, admiten perros y la comida era muy buena.

Great classic pub, top roast and atmosphere.

We booked the Lansdown for Sunday lunch with our kids. We were unfortunate to be seated opposite the door out to the garden which was also in use, despite it being a cold Autumn day. Throughout the meal the door was kicked open by the staff taking meals to customers outside, it was left open for minutes at a time as there was no self closing hinge on the door. This made it really chilly for us and not a pleasant experience. We mentioned it to the staff who said they would try and remember to shut it but it continued to happen. It's a really shame as the food was nice. I'd recommend if you book, that you ask not to sit near the door! There is no kids menu either, you can just ask for a smaller roast, although this wasn't explained to us when we arrived. I'd recommend the Lansdown get a self closing hinge on the door and also let parents know food options for kids or print it on the menu.

Just wanted to say how impressed our group was with the Sunday Roast, it was so tasty - every single element! Really impressed. Thanks to the chef and the great service.

Lovely pub, great outdoor seating area (hidden gem)! Had the Sunday roast which was 7/10.

Went to watch RWC - the "Manager" turned off the build up to the Ireland game because 'he was bored of listening to it' so put on his crap playlist and then left the pub!! The remaining staff (lovely newbie and lovely lady) weren't able to operate the sound system so the game started with no anthems and no commentary. We finished our drinks and headed down into Clifton to another bar where there was much better atmosphere and better bar management. Really disappointing as I had been here for 6 Nations and it was decent enough craic, but after that shambles we wont be back and we will be telling others to avoid.

Good food good drink and decent crowd

Beautiful house conversion to a pub.

Absolutely lovely Sunday roasts already planning our return

Yet another pub that has not changed over 40 years! Great ales, nice inside and outside. Authentic.

Big portions, friendly staff and pretty good quality

Great atmosphere and food. Veggies cooked perfectly and good portion size. I had the roast chicken and my wife had the roast beef. Loved all the trimmings too.

Best ever Sunday lunch. Great portions and cooked to perfection. Staff were very friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

Andrew is the best love him amazing marvellous fantastic man !

Brilliant place, coming from a guy who works in a bar myself, it's friendly, the staff are helpful, the food is absolutely gorgeous and mouth watering, come here alot and probably won't stop! Shout out to Dan! He's a top guy!

Loved it - big shout to Edie ❤️

Amazing quick service, bartender Andrew is exceptionally attentive. Come here if you want a brill night with sports shown outside!! Andrew is brill

Fantastic little pub, great food and great service. Would recommend to any locals or travellers passing by. 10/10. Shout out to Andrew for making our Experience lush!!

Went for a Sunday roast with some friends. Putsidr seating in the sun was great and initially a lovely welcome. But then service was slow, both in ordering and then delivering. Then got the order wrong. But the food was nice

Delicious roast, good size portion and lots of variety. efficient service, friendly staff and lovely venue.

One of the best roasts I’ve ever had in Bristol. Would definitely recommend. I had the beef which was spectacular. Very friendly and efficient service.

Staff were friendly and available, a lovely pub for pints but I wouldn’t recommend the roast dinner. Low quality food for the price. Lovely outdoor area for a pint/the football.

Great food in an intimate atmosphere!

Love this place for a drink. The staff are lovely and the food is amazing!

Booked for Sunday lunch, arrived early and they accommodated us despite being busy! The staff were friendly and the service was great. Had the chicken sharing roast between three and just about managed most of it. Tasted home cooked too so was extra yummy! Great portions, the camembert and apple crumble were also great. We were told that there may be a wait on lunch but the timings were great. We did not feel rushed either. Highly recommend and will be returning! Thanks all!

Great roast and value for money would highly recommend for a visit

Student pub but excellent food and very friendly to our group aged 40-68. Lots of gluten free options and dog friendly.

This place used to do the best Roast in Bristol. After yesterday's visit...I'd class it as the worst.

Small area and noisy downstairs, upstairs empty but bar not open. Good selection of drinks downstairs.

lovely Clifton pub which has a covered outdoor space with a massive screen for sports. The ale selection is great, it’s £4.70 for a pint of Doom Bar but that’s pretty standard in Clifton.

Lovely pub with a great outside seating area and amazing roasts, staff are welcoming and there’s a great selection of drinks, would recommend!

Brilliant pub! Great selection of drinks, friendly service and amazing food. Well worth a visit if you’re in the Clifton area. And dog friendly :)

The Lansdown is my absolute favourite pub. They serve amazing food, especially the Sunday roasts. Staff are very friendly and efficient. I always take friends here when they come to visit as I know it will always impress! Great whether you want a sit down meal or a couple of pints. Highly recommend :)

I love the Lansdown, but this particular experience was not very inspiring. The staffing were quite inattentive and generally mulled around the bar area without paying attention to you when you needed them. Unfortunately, our waitress accidentally tipped about half a plate of gravy down my leg and boot and on the floor when bringing our roast over. She did not make any attempt to clean any of it up beyond bringing over some spare napkins and left me to wipe gravy from the side of my leg, and to clean the floor, tabletop, and side of my plate. Also none of the staff then collected the wet napkins from us either or offered bring some more gravy to replace that which had been spilled. I don't generally expect businesses to cut the bill due to bad service, but it was a bit of a shame that the staff did nothing to be more accommodating in this instance. That being said, the flood was absolutely lovely as ever, and the vibe of the place is very warm and unique. I'm sure we'll visit again provided I don't get painted in gravy.

Struggled to find a place taking short notice for a Sunday roast. Managed to find the lansdown on an hours notice. The food was fantastic and extremely reasonably priced. Thw roast itself was lovely and perfectly cooked with bottomless gravy. Side portions were massive and affordable. All the food came out very fast, and the staff are very welcoming and charming. My girlfriend is seldom defeated by a roast but the Lansdown gave it a good shot. Brilliant characterful pub, will be coming back again no doubt!

Visited with my family and we all had a different roast. They were all equally delicious. The veggie were so perfectly cooked, the meat so juicy and the gravy exceptional. We will definitely go back to try other dishes on the menu. Staff was super friendly with us and our one year old plus they recommend us an amazing wine! Thank you again for a wonderful Sunday lunch

We visited The Lansdown today for a last minute booked roast as were due to be in the area and are so pleased to have stumbled across it. Genuinely the nicest roast I have had for a long time (even compared to other places that have a highly rated reputation). We ate at a table in the covered courtyard which initially we were a bit dubious about but as we had a 3 yr old with us it suited us fine. It turned out to be warm and comfortable and a really nice place to sit for a couple of hours. The food was delicious, so tasty, generous portions and a nice variety of veg. The roasties were delicious, and there was a parsnip purée which was amazing. We ordered the cauli cheese in addition which was so tasty. The staff were very friendly and attentive, couldn’t have been nicer. All in all it was a fabulous quality meal and would definitely return.

Been going for many years. New landlords absolutely diabolical. Really really bad food, warm cheap wine and bad service. How this place has become so bad saddens me.

I’d heard really good things about the roasts here so I was expecting something really special. It really wasn’t. I had pork and my partner had lamb. Whilst my pork was fairly good, the portion of lamb with my partner’s roast was really small. All...

Lovely service and atmosphere especially in the outdoor area behind. Enjoyed the food as well. Will go back.

Went to the pub over the weekend The staff were excellent and the food was outstanding I couldn’t recommend it enough for the hospitality me and my friends received from the staff on entrance and through our visit

Stopped off for a drink as was passing. While we were having our drinks staff walked past with one of the roast dinners and I swear Mr L turned into one the Bisto kids sniffing at the air as it went past so we booked...

Brought our dad for Father’s Day and the food was amazing! Staff were very friendly (found out it was her first day!) and will definitely be back.

We waited 40 mins for our roast dinner and when it came out it was luke warm. The waitress came back around 10 minutes later and asked how the food was to which I replied it was cold. She never offered to warm it or...

Had stayed in Bristol for three days and this was the best food and service by far!! Excellent welcome and amazing food!! Didn’t have to ask for water or cutlery or anything. The staff were very attentive !

Since lockdown the pub has only been serving sunday roasts and drinks, however they have perfected their sunday roasts which are amazing and good value for money! The roast potatoes were amazing. Staff are super friendly and the pub/pub garden is very homely. A lovely...

We came here for a casual family Sunday lunch and were blown away by the presentation of the food. Delicious meats, fantastic accompaniments and the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. They went the extra mile to ensure dietary requirements were met...

분위기가 정말 좋은 펍이에요.흔한듯 안흔한듯, 평범한듯 아닌듯저는 항상 야외테이블에 가서 마시는데갈 때마다 기분 좋아지는 곳이에요

We were let down at a venue, rung them at 2pm and by the time we got there 20 mins later they had laid a table. Service and food excellent

If you like superior pub grub, unfussy food with well sourced ingredients, and great ale, you have to come here. Small menu of perfectly crafted meals, free range meat, everything cooked from scratch. Welsh rarebit for a snack, drop dead burgers for the hungry, fish and chips better than I'e had anywhere. Roasts on a Sunday if you can get seated (come early). (How come it's not super expensive? It's beats the pants of the Ivy!) Eat outside on the terraces on a warm day or inside by the fire on a cold day. Atheists might just reevaluate their belief system because the god of human comfort has smiled on this corner of Clifton village. (PS. I have no association with this pub and I'm normally a miserable bugger.)

I've had the chicken burger before and its beed good, but tonight (11/07) it was overdone and like rubber. Hopefully this is a one off, but I'll probably avoid eating here again.

Lovely place for great food. Roast beef was delightful and good value. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

What an amazing pub this is! So, I'm back here again, after a longish absence, and it’s as good as it always was – in fact, no, it’s even better: they now have ‘Community Film Night’! – what a clever idea; but typical of this great pub!

Last week I received cold service from a female member of staff and felt unwelcome and disappointed with my visit. The organisation of the bar wasn't great, it seemed like a nice place at the start, however will find more enjoyment else where.

Came for after work drinks and some food. Was sceptical about ordering food but it was really delicious :) lovely service from Hayley too! X

Vimos este lugar recomendado para el almuerzo del domingo en TripAdvisor. Un personal maravilloso, amable, feliz de complacer y muy atento, a pesar de que estaban completamente llenos para toda la sesión. Lamentablemente, la comida no coincidía con el servicio, el pollo estaba un poco seco, parte del asado solo estaba tibio y tibio, y el risotto de remolacha con opciones vegetarianas era bastante insípido. Medio del camino para nosotros.

Comenzaré diciendo que este solía ser el asado más favorito en Bristol y mi "ir a" cuando mi mamá o amigos y antes de visitar. Fuimos hoy después de reservar una mesa con 2 meses de anticipación para descubrir que nos dieron la mesa más pequeña que se pueda imaginar justo al lado del ocupado murciélago con personas que pasaban por alto. Estas mesas deben estar reservadas para los paseos. Pedimos mudarnos y ellos lo hicieron, luego pedimos 2 corderos y 2 carnes. Unos minutos más tarde volvieron para decir que solo tenían un cordero. Aceptado esto. . . luego volvieron para decir que no les quedaba cordero. A las 2 de la tarde de un domingo! ! ! ¿Qué? ! Aceptamos esto y esperamos a nuestros principales. Llegaron con la porción más pequeña de queso de coliflor (costo adicional) algunas papas asadas que apenas estaban asadas y algunas verduras suaves. En este momento se están produciendo increíbles asados en Bristol a un precio razonable (la taberna del banco y el hombre verde son mis favoritos), así que por favor, no pierdas más tu tiempo o dinero comiendo aquí. El poderoso asado de Lansdown está sobre los chicos. Muy triste.

Visitamos The Lansdown en marzo para un asado el domingo a la hora del almuerzo después de ver Massive Attack la noche anterior en Bristol. El asado tenía una buena relación calidad-precio, sabroso y el Bloody Mary también era genial! Desafortunadamente, dejé mi bufanda en el pub antes de viajar de regreso a Londres en el tren esa tarde. Georgie, Stewart y el equipo fueron de gran ayuda después de que me contacté con ellos por correo electrónico explicándome que lo había dejado atrás y que muy amablemente me lo devolví a mi casa en Londres y no aceptaría ningún pago de mi parte para cubrir el franqueo.

Visitamos para el almuerzo del domingo. Ocupado, pero el personal era eficiente y amable. Buena selección de vinos y cervezas. El cordero se había agotado así que teníamos pollo y carne. Pollo muy seco, ternera bastante agradable. Veg bien cocido y yorkshires bueno. Coliflor y queso de brócoli extra, pero era una porción muy pequeña, no es suficiente para dos. Generalmente una pequeña porción para el dinero (12. 50 para un plato) ¿Fin del almuerzo, tal vez? No vale la pena quejarse, pero tampoco volvería, ya que hay muchas alternativas en Bristol

When we moved to Clifton 6 months ago we went in every pub to find the right one for a Sunday Roast for when my parents came to visit. It felt like goldilocks, checking for menu options, service and atmosphere. We found a winner with the Landsdown and it did not disappoint. I had a veggie roast and my partner and parents had meat options. The roast dinners are generous portions and delicious but it was made extra enjoyable by the friendly and attentive staff. They were courteous and polite and did not rush us. We sat in the ‘front’ area which was cosy and the music was at a good background level. We’ve been back since for a mid-week sausage and mash (again, a good veggie option).

Went here with my girlfriend for a lovely chilled Sunday roast!

This pub is so, so good – it's warm and friendly, with a series of small snug places to sit, bigger tables and an outdoor area for smoking if you wish, great staff, and an amazing range of beers (very well kept) and other drinks. It is a really, really good pub – even by the high standards of Bristol!

Mi esposa y yo llevamos a mi madre para el domingo asado aquí por primera vez, a menudo pasamos por allí y olvidamos el pub. Sin embargo, ¡es probable que sea la última vez!

Nos mudamos a esta ubicación recientemente y buscamos un verdadero pub de estilo antiguo. El Lansdown está a 5 minutos a pie y es perfecto en todos los sentidos. Personal amable, amable y servicial que nos recuerda, muy buena comida con muchas opciones diferentes en el menú, que se adaptan a cualquier hora del día. En el exterior, hay una brillante "tienda de cerveza" con muchos asientos. Fumador permitido en esta parte. Si no te gustan los grandes eventos deportivos, vale la pena recordar evitar los tiempos de partido que se muestran en las pantallas de todo el pub, arriba y abajo. De cualquier manera, un excelente local, que recuerda los días pasados ​​pero bien manejado con características modernas también. Gracias a The Lansdown!
