The Canteen – Bristol

April 24, 2014 · by · in Restaurants, Review · Leave a comment

Despite its name, the Canteen in Bristol seems to be known better for its music than its food. This is a shame because they serve incredibly tasty dishes at outrageously low prices. There is a simple reason for this – the Canteen is ran by a cooperative and therefore there isn’t someone trying to make […]

I have a love / hate relationship with shopping. It is one of those activities where I have to be in a good mood, hangover free, and feeling flush as well as slim. It is therefore quite a rare occasion when all of these things to be aligned. Mostly I trudge around the shops, look […]

In the heart of Southville is one of Bristol’s best loved theatre spaces. It comprises of an industrial looking restaurant and bar, theatres, performance areas, art galleries and even a Sunday market. My recent visit was to see the brilliant Richard Herring for his latest, rehashed hilarious tour called Talking Cock. The cafe-come-restaurant-come-bar is lively […]
