Bristol, Fish & Seafood Restaurant Guide

“Imaginatively prepared seafood dishes – Spanish but each with a twist – make a trip to this dockside container in Bristol a real pleasure”; like its sister Bravas, the formula is tapas, and at this “lively”, “good value” spot there’s a particular focus on fish (the headline prawns but also a “truly delicious” seafood salpicon). The owners’ hospitality group Season and Taste added a Mexican venue Condesa, on Whiteladies Road, to their now four-strong portfolio in March 2024, having received six-figure funding from the South West Investment Fund.

“Unquestionably the best fish restaurant in Bristol and its surrounds” – Mitch Tonks’s “lovely and romantic” old-school venue (which also doubles as a fishmonger) has graced “the heart of stunning Clifton” for almost two decades now. The “menu changes daily depending on the fresh catch” from Brixham and Cornwall, which is then cooked on the Josper grill to “consistently good” results.
