Three Brothers Burgers aboard Spyglass in Bristol, City of

Fantastic burgers. Very efficient service and a great range of beers. Our go to place to eat when we visit Bristol

Very tasty burgers, indeed! My only criticism was that the bun was a bit soggy (maybe our burgers were on the pass for awhile before getting to the table?), would be nice if they warmed 'em up a bit, too. Bit of feedback on the ordering system for whoever's in charge, the actual service was fine and friendly - but the technology isn't streamlining the process. Annoyingly, there's a QR code/web based ordering system - which means each family member (sans smartphone) all need to scroll through the menu before ordering - pretty painful. After finally creating the order with the web tool - you're whacked with a 10% service charge - no idea why (Sunday trading, perhaps? It better not be for this awful system!)? There hadn't been any real service up until that point, as we found ourselves our own table - after waiting to be seated, as instructed by the sign at the entrance. After standing there for a few minutes, the guy behind the bar said we could sit anywhere we wanted - no problem, it wasn't that busy anyway. After the shock/annoyance of the service charge (why not build it into your prices??), you're then prompted to provide a tip - this is before any real interaction with any of the service staff. We then get a text notification suggesting that our order hasn't been received - but it goes on to explain that "Your payment was successful". Bizarre. Then a young fellow comes out to reassure everything is fine - the order has been processed and all is good in the world. No problem - he's polite and friendly - all good. No drama. The food comes out - great - delicious, everyone happy! Then I see the exact same tray of food coming out again with the same waitress who already delivered our food 5 minutes earlier... She calls out my name and I point out that we already have our food - she trots back to the kitchen with 70 quid's worth of burgers that'll either go in the bin or to the staff? Either way - this doesn't seem like a particularly smooth operation, I've waited tables - tips are are earned and service is normally charged for large groups or on bank holidays - this was neither. What's the story? Also - what's wrong with good old fashion table service? Maybe there's a generational disconnect - but I can't see how the technology (in this instance) is helping the customers or the staff.

Best burgers ever, never disappointed. Same review as last time best burgers in Bristol never been beaten and I've tried them all. Absolutely love this place. Tried everywhere else that does burgers and they just can't compete. Lots of good places in Bristol but for consistency and quality they can't be beaten. Highly recommend.

Excellent service, best food ever and real chill atmosphere. Staff treated us like royalty

Best place to, warm and friendly helpful staff, best chicken in the UK , good vibes 😎

Great burgers and a relaxed place - the surroundings are simple but good and service are very good.

Awesome staff! Awesome food! Quality price! Thanks folks!

Nice setting on the river and good beer and cider but unfortunately that's about it. The burgers are average, mostly swimming in grease and burger sauce for the price you pay (plus any chips as an extra cost). The biggest bug bare is the service charge. You're paying a forced service charge, even when ordering a pint on its own, to order through an app with no interaction with any of the staff. Then when your food does arrive, all the burgers are on a tray with a quick point to which one is (What's the point of putting your name on the order if it doesn't get used), a pile of plates is given whilst you then plate up your own and others food for them, all whilst having the pleasure of paying the place a service charge Odd concept, average food, wouldn't recommend or return

the outside area is fantastic. It was a joy having tasty burgers served right on the river. The restaurant being inside a fixed boat has a nice vibe. Can’t go anything wrong if the order has some chillis. The funny part is when they warn about the seagulls

One of the better burgers I’ve had before, I loved it.

I have no complaints about the food, drink or the staff. The food was great but I don't like that when you order through the QR code, you have a forced service charge that you can't opt out of before you've even had any engagement with the staff. The site then prompts you for another voluntary service charge after this, so you could end up paying 2 service charges if you're not paying attention. All of this through the site that ironically supposed to limit the amount of work their staff needs to do. Why the forced service charge? Does this actually go to the staff or is this a way of subsidising their wages? You should probably clarify this on the site since it's a bad look.

Strange thing about burgers they seldom live up to expectations. So this place made a welcome change. Great burger, and I mean really good, hot, cooked, well seasoned and truly relished. Usually if the burgers good the fries are cold when you get to them - nope, hot crisp and fluffy on the inside and decent size portion - this was a great choice washed down with an excellent guest ale. Three Brothers Nailed it.

Docked right on the harbourside, Three Brothers Burgers in Bristol is an absolute gem! It's a chilled out burger bar on the water. I went for the double cheeseburger with bacon, which was equally huge and delicious. The fries were seasoned and crisp on the outside. Highly recommended for a casual meal and it's closely situated by kings street so you can hit the bars after.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food

Really tasty burgers! Everything was great, atmosphere was chill and staff so nice, quite spenny but worth the trip for sure

Great burgers, and lovely staff thank you

Really good place for a burger and a beer.

I loved the atmosphere of the place: relaxed and informal. The burgers were delicious, with the meat perfectly cooked and the potatoes also very good. The service was very fast, and the prices were very reasonable. Without a doubt, a place I would return to.

Went with some work colleagues for Christmas lunch. Food was ok and little pricey for what it was to be fair. Service was not grate at all, we were welcomed by a staff member and shown to the table which was lovely but it all went down hill from there. As soon as we sat at the table, we was told there was a QR code on the table, which we needed to scan to order to the table, and then he walked away. There was no one to one waiter/waitresse service. Everything is done on an app, which also doesn't reflect the high cost of the food and drink. The worst thing is that a service charge is automatically put on the bill via app per order!!! We did an initial first order of food and drinks and then wanted more drinks to which we got another service charge added!!!! You do get asked if you want to tip, but unfortunately, I was not going to tip someone for just walking over to my table, putting a tray down with all.our food, and us having to sort the order out, wr even had to place our own order! We then left and went on to another location for drinks as we felt we were being ripped off on service charges and lack of customer experience due to having to use an app.

Nice burgers and atmosphere - fried pickles are worth a try but the ranch sauce is definitely not ranch 😂

I’ve been a couple of times with friends and on my own. The peanut butter and chilli jam burger which doesn’t seem to be on the menu is awesome. Think I’d walk over hot coals to get this again goes down well with a draft beer or cider. Service was awesome and the atmosphere was great definitely do this again.

Best burgers in Bristol love it

Delicious burgers let down by the fact you will be charged a non optional service charge despite ordering off your phone - oh and they ask for a tip afterwards too, so I doubt the service charge is going to the waiters! What's the service charge even for? The service was on a par with wetherspoons (order on my phone, wait ages for drinks and food to arrive) so I'm not sure what I'm paying for........a shame a good burger place has to be tainted by it's owner's greed.

Food was excellent but service could have been better

Nice burger and the staff were on it!

Enjoy spectacular burgers, well served, with good waiter service and a good price. In a restaurant that is a boat docked in the canal and expanded with a tent. Highly recommended!!!

Loved it dropped in on a cold wet evening and it was warm and welcoming burgers were fantastic as was the cider.

Went here for lunch. The place was quite busy, but not too much. Every burger can be made veggie or vegan, which is great, and you can personalize toppings to a crazy degree! The veggie bacon burger was really good, and so were the fried pickles. I didn't necessarily care for the ranch they came with, but I'm not a big fan of the sauce anyway. All in all a good experience, would pop in here again if I'm back in town.

Fabulous “dirty” food, delicious flavours and great choice. As a vegetarian it was so nice to have the choice of any dish, made vegetarian. Great service, highly recommend, we are both nights of our stay!

Some friends brought me here it was warm the food was good the atmosphere was great. The only negative was a sarcastic comment by one of the workers when I didn't understand his direction to the toilet. I would definitely come back irrespective of that negative experience.

One word.....BANGING.. great food, good selection of drinks

One of the more iconic venues in Bristol for great food, drinks and vibes - whether you’re stopping off for a quick and well-priced lunch meal or spending an evening with a group, this spot has always been consistent in every way!

Can’t deny how good the burgers were but also can’t say nothing when we’ve been charged £5 for service when the waiters completely avoided any form of social contact. Waited at the door while servers ignored us for what felt like 5 minutes before we asked them what was going on when they sat us out of pity and told us management told them to slow things down. Sat us in the back where there were multiple free tables and then only interacted with us when giving us our food. £5 service charge is a joke, world has gone mad. Thanks for cleaning the table 👍

Very tasty food. Quick service. Good value!

Lunch deal very cheap!! The quantity was very filling. There were all vegetables, meat, cheese. The service staff was good. Atmosphere next to the waterfront Want to go back and eat again 🥹

Great food and mulled cider. Quick service. Very handy for the Old Vic Theatre.

Great burger options, lovely location and lots of vegan and Veggie options. it's my second visit and won't be my last :) lunch deal is an absolute bargain

The burgers here are so good. We had cheese and bacon burgers and a chilli burger both were excellent. The beef patty was perfect. Good fries and a great selection of beers and ciders. Lovely staff too.

Cracking burgers, solid beers, great location.

Decent burger joint. Nothing but positive things to say on this visit. If you are into burgers definitely drop by if you are in the area.

I went for a burger here in August and what I got back was awful - the beef was completely overdone and it was tasteless. I tried to let the company know three times about this privately but every single message was ignored. I won’t be going back here - they certainly don’t deserve to do well if they serve food and their customers like this.

Deep fried pickles. Need I say more?

The burgers are good, but they are very expensive. £13.50 for a double cheeseburger without fries, and to add bacon to would be another £4 on top of that! The fries portion was good, and the burger was tasty and saucy, if a little too fatty. They claim their burgers are 6 oz, but they seemed more like 4–5 oz patties, so I didn't appreciate the dishonesty. Everything else about the place, I didn't like. They don't take bookings, it's very loud, and the servers stand around doing nothing while you're forced to use a dodgy website to place and pay for your order, and you're still charged a service fee! Their selection of beers was small to start with, and on top of that a lot of them were out of stock. Overall, I don't think this place deserves the high rating it has, but could be ok if you catch it at a quiet time.

Big fan of this place. Many a good time had. Great location off the cobbled streets of Welshback, on the waterfront and close to the oldy worldy pubs nearby. Decent pricing, decent food and the milkshakes are awesome. Kind of like the tree right in the middle of the place too.

Went for lunch while visiting family in Bristol. Great atmosphere, loads of choice and reasonable prices. The food was so tasty & there was plenty of it. Great location too, highly recommend a visit. Will return when we are in Bristol again.

Amazing location, service, food and choice of beers here. Ordering from the table is easy and it's always a good start to an evening here

Best burger itw - 40-50 for two rounds of drinks 2 burgers and 2 sides

Simply one of the best burgers you are ever likely to eat!!

Great burger joint with an excellent choice for vegetarians too.

Shocking, ordered a burger on my own phone and get a service charge , no fries with the burger that cost me £13 on its own. I ordered a separate drink on my own phone and got charged £1 service charge . Never again

This was not the best burger I ever had. We tried the hotdog and it was nothing special. Having said that the staff and service was great.

Allergy training needed. When sat to our table, we were handed menus and not asked if we had any allergies. Tried scanning QR code to order but app wasn’t working. Had to wave down someone to order and he did not ask of the gluten free burger was due to an allergy. Food came out half an hour before our drinks. Woman who placed the tray made no indication which burger was the gluten free. Would not recommend if you have allergys.

Really tasty burger, decent fries and beer in a lovely setting by the river.

Very good burgers, service could be improved. But I recommend going.

Fun, cute location near the hotels downtown. Staff was friendly and attentive. Also, there's a live tree inside!

The decent food was marred by the presumption of our group on arrival and slack order taking meaning meals were missed or part missing. We had some recompense against the meal but the whole experience had already been tainted. Will think twice about returning.

Avoid this place at all costs! We booked a dinner here, and one of our group members tripped on a step (which, given it’s on a boat, probably happens often). Because we were a group of men, a staff member decided to cut off alcohol service for the entire group. While discussing this with the manager, we overheard other staff members saying in the background, "just throw them all out." Eventually, the manager allowed us one round of drinks, but then they still managed to miss four burgers and chips from our order. Disappointing experience overall!

Noisy environment, food is good, good location

Very easy and simple way. Put your order, pay and food comes. Good food. Nice environment.

Came up from London, tried a 3BB burger even though a little cheddar cheesy still satisfying! Will definitely return next time I'm in town x

The food was good and really cheap for that amount, the service was also really nice. The decor was really cool too

Incredible place, great atmosphere, amazing food, great service, couldn’t recommend it highly enough

Great place to enjoy food with a lively atmosphere.

Food is so reliably good. Very busy and loud on a Saturday night so if you're looking for a nice quiet meal not the best option, but great atmosphere if you want some good food and laugh

The best burgers we had on a recent trip to Bristol, really delicious, great fries, good experience. The only downside the milkshakes were not available. I recommend.

Wonderful restaurant with super tasty burgers!

Extremely good burger and good selection of drinks at a reasonable price. A bit tired restaurant, but pleasant service and good atmosphere.

Best burgers in town, they also have gluten free options!

Great place! You have to order through a QR so I did not like that very much. Otherwise, food is amazing. Staff is friendly and service is fast. We didn’t have a reservation but we were able to eat there in a nice table. They have a nice beer selection, I definetly recommend it French burger is amazing

Food was good and came quickly, service friendly and fast. Expensive for what it is

Some of the best burgers, best atmosphere and friendly staff around. Highly recommend

I normally enjoy this place but today’s experience was very disappointing. Knowing that they closed on a Sunday at 1800 we got there at 1730 and the staff were enjoying a drink and a big sign stated the restaurant was closed. We had no option but to turn around. No apologies at all. We travelled 40 miles too.

A fantastic burger. Juicy and delicious. Loads of fries...chips. the waiter was very helpful getting this American through the process of lunch.

10/10 Best burger I’ve had in years The food was incredible, came to the table super quick and the staff were delightful. Was in at 7pm on a Wednesday and the place was packed. Had a great atmosphere, good music playing and perfect ambient lighting. Also is so refreshing to see a decent Rum on the menu rather than just a list of Gins & Wines. If you’re in Bristol you have to come here!

One of the best bargains around if you're looking for a quality vegan burger and chips. Hotdog was good as well and I get to eat on a boat by the river. Great atmosphere and service, every member of staff was really friendly and helpful in every way.

Lovely place, friendly staff and great atmosphere

Amazing burgers and great value as well. I made it down for the before 5pm offer (£6.50 for burger and fries) which was amazing value and allowed me to explore their craft beer selection. Their chilli fries were next level as was their chilli burger, well worth a try and again good value. Probably the best burgers in Bristol and definitely the best value for money...

Celebrated my sisters 50th Birthday. Lovely food.

So glad we made a stop here. Great location. Excellent, friendly staff and efficient service. Highly recommend

Was recommended by a friend as the best burger place in Bristol. I paid £15 for a bang average burger that didn't come with fries at that price. It also took 30 mins and felt bitterly disappointed:

The burgers were really good The beer I had was okay but not I probably chose badly Ordering through an QR code Delivery to table Great music

Great atmosphere, service and especially the food. Highly recommend 👌

This place is always good. And there’s always an offer on between 12 and 5 🤙🏼 Decent music aboard too 👌🏼

Visited on a quiet Sunday. Service was great and the food was faultless. Great selection of burgers and sides.

BGB (Bloody Good Burger) at Three Brothers! Great range with something for everyone. Nice beer selection too.

Eaten here twice now, and have had excellent food both times. Delicious and great quality meat.

Best burger I’ve ever had, chips were hot and crispy, reasonably priced for the location and right next to the Apple. Staff attentive… Will definitely return.

Great atmosphere. Lovely burgers. All 4 of us agreed. Loved the range of ale and lager. Good service. Very relaxed. Minor mistake on the order quickly resolved. Dog friendly if your dog is friendly!

Sehr leckere Burger und sides. Das Essen kam sehr schnell! Wir haben verschiedene Burger getestet und alle waren echt lecker. Eine klare Empfehlung von uns!

Very good burgers and good selection of drinks. Large tables well suited for meetings with friends.

Great food, little bit overpriced

Loved it, gluten free (and normal with good quality patties) burgers with waterfront view. Highly recommend

Great burgers. Great customer service. The guy with the black/brown curly/big hair served us and he was excellent. The food was spot on. Quick and great service. We will definitely go back. Good prices as well.

The servers all seem to think they are children of god who bless you with their mere presence. Burgers arent bad but due to the service I suspect my dog has a friendlier experience eating its own excrements

Unfortunately we didnt understand what all the reviews were for. We ordered spicy burger and a chicken burger, with chips and two soft drinks which costs £42 but food was very dry and very cold. The buns were really cold and could have been alot nicer if were placed on the grill before servinh. The service and people working were very friendly and nice. Vibe was good too, just the burgers werent to the standard we expected based on the reviews.

Awesome , service, best burgers in UK. Lively atmosphere, Highly recommended 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Only takes bookings for 8 or more depsire being half empty

Popped in the off chance. Chilled vibe. Three of us went with the Lunch Time special - standard burger and fries £6.99. It was generous, it was tasty. Really decent value; for central Bristol excellent price for a proper burger. Well done

If you craving a burger this is the place.

This place popped up on instagram with a £6.50 lunch deal which was a bargain, so I went along, the price is now £7.50 which is still a bargain and inflation and all that. Easy to order on the app, the food arrived and the burger was excellent, smash patty and a soft chewy bun with the perfect texture, delicious burger sauce, nice American cheese too. Chips were crispy and fluffy but for some reason some of them tasted a bit fishy? Maybe fried in the same oil as some fish at some point? But other than that really great place, recommend it especially for a couple of quid more than a meal deal in Tesco etc, plus I always like to support local business. The only other downside was the service charge added by the company who administer the website you use to order, quite steep at 75p. Also watch out for seagulls!
