French Restaurants in Portishead
1. Gem 42
Italian restaurant in Newport
42 Bridge Street - NP20
“How this business survives in Newport is unbelievable! It’s far too good!” – twin brothers Sergio and Pasquale Cinotti (the latter the pastry chef) established this brave destination in 2018, and – some would say against all odds – continue to go from strength to strength (in 2022 they were the AA’s Welsh Restaurant of the Year). For the full blow-out, you can opt for a ten-course ‘Essenza’ menu which changes daily at £180 per head; but there are much more affordable ‘entry-level’ options, ranging from £65 per head.
2. Little French
French restaurant in Bristol
2b North View, Westbury Park - BS6
It’s “hard to get a table in this tiny French bistro” in Westbury Park (one of the most commented-on destinations in Bristol this year), where locally born “chef Freddie Bird’s classics with a twist” make an “outstanding addition to the Bristol scene”, with “proper gutsy French cooking, and delicious to boot”. Top Menu Tip – “the pommes aligot alone is worth the trip, absolutely delicious and indulgent”.
3. COR
Mediterranean restaurant in Bristol
81 North Street - BS3
This brightly painted Bedminster corner site opened in late 2022 and delivers a selection of diverse European small plates of French, Italian and Spanish inspiration. Quickly awarded one of the tyre men’s ‘bib gourmand’s, we’ve rated it on limited feedback to-date, which is all complimentary. More reports please!
