Cafe/ - Bristol

Often used for informal creative business meetings, this bar has a good menu and drinks list, which is sprawled across the top of the bar for you to crane your neck at. It also has a good atmosphere, quite relaxed, though it can get very loud in the evenings. New outdoor seating has made this bar even more popular over the Summer. It 's a good place to sit back and watch the conference delegates, cinema-goers, jobbing 'creatives ', and coffee-drinking retired people, or to be any of these people yourself. A favourite new addition to the bar is the high quality breakfast bun. Focacia bread, sausage, bacon, egg, and a big grin. A bit posh but very satisfying.

This is a large Cafe Bar overlooking the waterfront, its part of the Watershed Cinema and Media centre. The cafe bar is always busy and buzzing. The food is quite good but expensive for what it is. For example olives and sun-dried tomatos, so I normally just have a lager or a coffee. The Watershed's customers include fans of the arts and independent cinema and some of them can seem a little pretentious!

I've gone here for meals even if I'm not viewing a film at the attached cinema. There is a wide selection of cold and hot foods, some are standards (like jacket potatoes) and some are seasonal. There are veggie options and some interesting combinations. I don't think it's overpriced, especially since it's of good quality. The bar has a good selection of drinks. You can eat in the main area (which can get a bit loud when crowded) or in the side areas. They have recently added a small balcony, so if the weather is nice, this gives you an option of the outdoors with a view of the waterfront.

This is an art-house cinema, showing more unusual flicks than you'd find somewhere like Vue or Odeon. They've coupled it with a cafe/bar/restaurant, that has a great beer selection and a rather strange atmosphere. Getting drunk in a cafe is a bit weird. The prices are reasonable, given its harbourside location.

Cafe is upstairs from the entrance lobby. Excellent and relaxed venue for a spot of lunch, particularly if vegetarian as most dishes fall into this category. Nice location too. The clientele seem to range from the arty type, probably there for the cinema to the business types there for conferences. High chairs available for babies.
