The best restaurants in Lawrence Hill Bristol, City of South West

Located in a rather unlikely location on a small industrial estate, this is a small bar & restaurant attached to the Bianchi’s (Pasta Loco, Pasta Ripiena, etc) kitchen. There is outside seating at the front that has taken over a couple of parking spaces, a small bar counter behind this, and further seating upstairs. It’s all quite basic in feel as befits it’s location, and opening hours are fairly restricted. The menu was chalked on a couple of boards above the bar counter, and there were also some (very nice looking) sausage rolls on display. I opted for the fennel sausage pasta, and this was a decent and tasty dish, and quite a generous portion. Across the table, the salted cod pasta was also well received, with a whole riot of flavours going on, although this was perhaps a little on the small side. The barman was pleasant and friendly. Overall, another solid venue from these guys who can’t seem to put a foot wrong.

I went to get some plants for our new house. I drank some cider when I was there and it was pleasant. Would go again 👍

Sunday lunch, Adam our server was great and did so much for us and knows by far lots of knowledge about the drinks off the top of his head even down to each larger or where something off the menu is from which is always nice to hear, he's definitely an asset to your overall team, patient and definitely introduced us all very well so credit to him as he knows what he's doing. An honest review of the food, We came for a Sunday lunch, all meats cooked perfectly which is great to see. If I had a few niggles, Roast potatoes were nice but all agreed could be more crispy and seasoned up a little more flavour packed on them. Gravy & yorkie was great and tasty. If I had to be really picky the veg however some rock hard large tender stem broccoli stalks and some very small over cooked maybe a little more attention to how the green veggies are prepped/cooked could be taken into consideration so it all cooks nice and evenly, but again this is only constructive feedback . Red cabbage was great and tasted lovely. Brussels spouts were lovely and charred but after a couple of mouthfuls we definitely seemed to be left with a funny unique afterflavour that we couldn't quite seem to pair well or enjoy with our roast, again only our opinion. Desserts were all fantastic. Ambience great. Good service timing. Rest of the staff were lovely too. Sourdough bread was top stuff with that nice salty butter.

Warm and friendly staff serving great sandwiches and treats.

very nice food. a little pricey and noisy.

Dangerously good doughtnuts. Recommend the doughnut and filter coffee combo.

Doesn't seem to exist anymore...

Delicious food and amazing team! #itssausagetime

No exaggeration, the owner is the kindest and friendliest person I’ve ever met and the short conversations we share while he makes my coffee are the highlight of my day! It also a win that the coffee is so good. Sometimes the queue seems long but he is so quick despite working alone and maintains a friendly and attentive service with every customer xx

Popped in for some snacks for a long journey home and had a chat with the lovely Sam. She was very helpful and polite, and suggested using the Too Good to Go app to grab a last minute surprise bag! Plus the heater was on which was amazing given how cold it was today!
