The sunshine makes everything taste better and over the last 12 months we’ve been so lucky to have so many great restaurants grow & expand, plus many new and exciting establishments join the scene.
The Clifton Sausage has opened a sister branch in Bath; Brace & Browns is opening a new site on Bristol’s Whapping Wharf; The Jetty at Harbour Hotel has been received rave reviews and Opa is frankly a stunning new venue in the centre of Bristol.
Check out our recommendations for spring in Bristol:
Bakesmiths, Whiteladies Road, Bristol: recommended for brunch, or coffee and cake.
Opened: Spring 2016
Oowee Diner, Stokes Croft, Bristol
The ultimate comfort food: marmite & cheddar fries and dirty gorgeous burgers
Opened: late 2016
Fancy food in an even fancier looking restaurant: check out this apple pie done the Opa way
Opened: early 2017
We still love Casamia and now it is down on the waterfront it really is a beautiful place to dine when the sun is out. Casamia’s sister restaurants sit next door and are also worthwhile checking out.
Pi Shop – Casamia’s pizza restaurant on the waterfront. The pizza is simply gorgeous, the staff are knowledgable, attentive & immaculately presented and the wine list is just divine.

The Jetty at Bristol Harbour Hotel
