Lovely little cafe bar with simple but tasty menu, with loads of vegan options and great cakes, in a light and spacious space surrounded by plants and books. The adjoining gallery itself hosts a range of brilliant and through provoking exhibitions that are always worth a visit.

An interesting gallery which is constantly changing. It’s free to go in but you can donate which I know they appreciate very much when people do.
There’s a cafe there too, I think it’s not run by the gallery but works well in conjunction with.

Popped in to the café for lunch, not knowing what to expect, it's a light bright space, very clean with friendly staff. The food was great, large portions, nice presentation, served quickly, we really enjoyed it. Thanks very much!

An excellent contemporary gallery with a great exhibition space and friendly and knowledgeable staff.
They run fantastic art workshops for adults and children providing all expertise, equipment and materials required.
They also have a lovely cafe.

'I am making art' workshop. I went to the workshop with my 8 year old son and we loved the venue, thought the cafe was excellent and I really enjoyed my creative efforts. I think adults and younger children got a lot out of the session. However, my son was too old to play unselfconsciously with the materials but too young to feel confident devising his own project and I think he would have benefitted from a worksheet of ideas or some kind of a 'challenge'. As it was I was trying to keep him busy while I did my own stuff, which wasn't idea.

Exhibition on at present by Veronica Ryan (August 2021). Huge open space with eatery on site.
If Art is your thing it's definitely worth checking out.

The café has the best sandwiches in the world - whenever I feel down I come here to get one, they will never let you down 👍👍👍

We had really good fresh food here. It's all organic, and interesting and small menu. Highly recommended. I visited with my family, who are discerning, fussy and allergic, and they were all well satisfied.

Great space with thoughtfully put together exhibitions. I recommend a visit as part of any cultural tour through the city.

Painted Object I am Making Art
Really great open work shop providing materials and a chance to work with found objects. Well facilitated workshop in which participants were encouraged to work with colour, texture and 3D to enhance their personal practice.
Tutors were helpful and encouraging, objects and materials provided were great.

Spike Island is the island towards the south of Bristol, it has many attractions including the SS Great Britain, there are some nice walks along the waterside, you can walk from Queens Square all the way to the Create Centre (or you could get the boat to Nova Scotia and have a pint in the cottage instead). There is a popular cafe called Brunels Buttery where you can get a cuppa and M Shed where you can learn about Bristol especially it's industrial past.

Has a nice cafe which runs also runs events throughout the month. Lunch can be a touch on the expensive side, but it is good. Good place to stop with the little ones.

Went on an open day with all the individual artists' studios open. It's an honour to have so much incredible talent in our city. Diverse, surprising and shocking you'll find it all here.

Really chilled, cool cafe. Good food, great coffee... Sometimes a but if a queue, but it's worth it. Plus an art gallery!

Quite possibly the best almond croissant I have ever tasted in the cafe. Very interesting place too.

An island with a great big spike on it. My uncle Bernie slipped on the ice and was impaled on the spike. He was a great bloke and we miss him dearly.

Spike island is one of the more interesting galleries in Bristol. Its annual studio opening weekend must not be missed.
