"It may be a deck as opposed to a rooftop but the views you get up on Grain Barge match some bars higher above sea level. The Grain Barge started its life as an engineless transport barge that carried barley and wheat from Bristol to Cardiff across the Severn Estuary, but now you can enjoy a few bevvys on board their top deck. Sipping local cider, hearing the hubbub by the waterside and taking in views of Bristol Harbour are exactly the ways you should spend a summer weekend."

"The Hotwells boat is opening its top deck up for alfresco dining & drinks with table service only. Address: Hotwell Rd, Bristol BS8 4RU"

"Already an impressive sight from the outside, Casamia sits in an inviting arch of a beautiful Grade II listed building overlooking Bathurst Basin. If you choose to enter, you’ll find yourself transported by the Scandic interiors that create a sparse and minimalist space with rich wooden accents to create warmth. The dishes, much like the interior, are a minimalist’s dream, but don’t let the simple plating fool you; there are plenty of complex flavours hidden within."

"Probably the best known Michelin star restaurant in Bristol, Casamia is a fine dining experience like no other. The menu at Casamia changes with the seasons, as does the interior of the restaurant. The dishes are designed to showcase seasonal produce at its best and are inspired by childhood memories, locations and people the chefs have met."

"Earlier this year Bambalan made improvements to its rooftop bar with the addition of new lighting, patio heaters and a DJ booth, and it has given its food offering a boost with the launch of a new Mediterranean-inspired breakfast and brunch menu, which runs seven days a week. In line with the existing lunch and evening menu. the breakfast and brunch menu takes inspiration from Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, featuring dishes such as Shakshuka, priced at £8, and spiced beans with Merguez sausages or 'Dirty Beans' (£9)."

"Possibly one of the top outdoor dining spots in the city for views, Bambalan is an urban paradise. Located in the heart of the city up in the Beacon Tower, this rooftop bar has a magical tropical vibe, especially during the evenings. Bambalan’s terrace has plenty of outdoor seating as well as canopies to take cover from the unpredictable British weather."

"Established back in 1926 in London's Soho, Patisserie Valerie is renowned for its range of continental-style baked goods. Paying homage to the bohemian café culture, find traditional bistro furnishings and Toulouse Lautrec-style cartoons inside, along…"

"You can't miss Amarone on an evening, as its exterior is always lit up in red, white and green in honour of their Italian heritage. The perfect place for a pre-theatre dinner (it's right next to the Theatre Royal), pick pasta and choose from a vast selection of freshly made dishes, from penne all’arrabbiata and cacio e pepe to ravioli filled with burrata cheese."

"Welcome to Amarone, traditional Italian dining housed within the Grade I listed, historic Beau Nash House in the wonderful city of Bath."

"You can get some half price food in August in Bristol’s wonderful gaming bar. Address: 20 Christmas Steps, BS1 5BS"

"One of the best places to eat in the Bristol Triangle, this gorgeous Thai restaurant is more than just a pretty face. Head down for the chance to tuck into dim sum, tempura and deeply-flavoured curries, or keep it simple with cocktails and few light bites."

"A place where the irresistibly rich flavours of Thai cuisine can be shared and sampled with fiery cocktails, far-flung beers and world-class music. Your Complete Dining Experience. A place at once authentic, beautiful, unpretentious, relaxed and refined."

"Any sushi enthusiast will gravitate to Noa, one of the best restaurants in Clifton to enjoy washoku (traditional Japanese dishes) in a bright and vibrant environment. Noa Japanese Restaurant and Bar brings contemporary Japanese cuisine and culture to Bristol, served in its cozy Manga lounge or the Gojira dining area and cocktail bar. Noah’s menu caters for sushi, sashimi and noodle lovers, and they also offer ‘J-style’ tapas, an innovative twist to traditional Japanese cuisine."

"Café Retro is a great hub for that perfect morning cure in a really trendy, two floor café which overlooks The Abbey. There is a variety of options including cooked and light breakfasts, each at reasonable prices with generous helpings. It's a great place for big groups of people as it is quite a large venue, but also great for couples or families as the atmosphere is vibrant and friendly."

"The paint job's scruffy, the crockery's ancient and none of the furniture matches, but that's all part of the charm. This is a cafe from the old school, and..."

"I first came across Society in its home city of Bath, where I managed to visit the two branches in the order that they opened, a rarity for the Coffee Spot, starting with Kingsmead Square before moving onto The Corridor. However, I’ve safely broken that trend by skipping the third Society Café, in Oxford, instead visiting the fourth and most recent branch which opened this summer in Bristol. You’ll find Society Café down by the harbour, on the corner of Narrow Quay and Farr’s Lane, right next to the youth hostel."

"Society Café is one of my favourite spots in the centre, especially when with the kids as it’s plenty spacious enough for a pushchair. It has a bright and airy, somewhat hipster, design and serves up great coffee, sweet treats and light lunches."

"More than anything else, Rocotillos (situated on the Clifton Triangle) is famous for its indulgent milkshakes, some of which are so thick they could be used to build houses. With both a bar and booths, it is often populated by hung-over locals who are intent on recovering from the previous night’s excesses. Brunches are cheap and large, and include the Ten Gallon Tex’s serious fry-up (a gigantic steak) and follow it up with a Ben & Jerry’s cookie dough or Phish Food milkshake."
