BRUNCH
The brunch scene in Bristol has really taken off over the last few years. You can't go wrong by checking out one of these numbers...
Primrose Cafe - Fantastic and reasonably-priced full English (both meaty and veggie) along with all the usual brunch heroes. On a warmer/drier day you can sit outside in the courtyard...a fantastic spot for weekend people watching in Clifton. http://primrosecafe.co.uk/
East Village Cafe - Another Clifton Village spot. Serves great vegetarian food, featuring more unusual options such as their amazing quinoa waffles with sweetcorn hash & cashew cream. https://www.eastvillagecafe.co.uk/
At the Well - Check out the legendary 'Transatlantic pancakes' at this great spot on Cheltenham Road. It doubles up as a laundrette too! https://www.at-the-well.co.uk/thewell/bristollaundrettecafe.html

LUNCH
Souk Kitchen - This cracking Middle Eastern restaurant is hidden just off Whiteladies Road. They do a great lunch deal which includes a drink. Think flatbreads, houmous, meaty skewers and mezze boards. There's another branch in Southville too. https://soukitchen.co.uk/
Whapping Wharf - Head down to the Harbourside to Wapping Wharf; where you'll be spoilt for choice by a huge range of places for food & drink. http://wappingwharf.co.uk/. Mokoko does a great lunch plate (featuring homemade quiches/frittatas and house salads) and their spread of freshly baked cakes are amazing. Plenty of outdoor seating for sunnier days too! https://www.mokokocoffee.com/
