Reviews of Steinbeck and Shaw

J. W.

Decoration of the place is amazing with the pink horse hanging from the ceiling! The drinks were cheap and cheerful but was in line for quite a while but taste was 11/10. The cleanliness of the place let it down a bit as the tables/ menus were sticky and the toilets were not maintained, door locks did not work and there was no soap in the holders.

J. C.

Seems a good place, but we only stayed for 2 drinks as the atmosphere was dead. Barely anyone in there and average tunes. Good cocktails and good price on the deals. Would probably return, but worth seeing if it’s lovely or not first.

R. S.

Nice atmosphere, good music. Drinks prices are reasonable. Nice I'd you want a early evening drink

a.

Very creative, young vibe. Graffiti all over walls and an upside down horse on the ceiling with football table. Beautiful food big portions. Limited menu. Great if you like burgers. The staff are attentive and friendly.

D. B.

Nice bar, good atmosphere. Food menu is great for the sort of bar that it is and the seating is amazing. Great value for food on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Spirit choice is very good as well.

e. p.

Good service, cheap drinks, open till late hours- come back again

J. B.

Good (rnb/hip hop) music on a Saturday, lots of seating. Staff are always around cleaning

E. B.

Great atmosphere and lovely staff. Would definitely visit here again for a night out. Had a great outside smoking area, pleantly of inside seating (with air con) and a dance floor. Great decor and easy to get to location. Would recommend

S. J.

My friends and I went to Steinbeck & Shaw to watch the England matches. They were really accommodating and provided a great atmosphere for the match. Drinks and food were quick and easy. Paul was particularly helpful and we’d definitely be in touch again for events.

M. R.

Happy hour until 10pm, half price. Good beer and very good cocktail. Nice people, staff and music. What else do you need?

B. P.

Excellent cocktails! Great for drinks with friends.

T. A.

First of all, great staff. The Happy Hour, which means half price drinks between 5pm-10pm, that's dope! Good food and not a big waiting time, so yeah, you should go there. Did I mention about the Happy Hour? 🤔

R. M.

Funky atmosphere, good cocktail selection, great place to drink, awesome staff all very friendly and happy.

My daughter's 21st birthday party Was completely ruined and left her in tears. As promises that were made on the telephone. We're not honoured. When she got to the club. She was offered unlimited mixers and a bottle of bubbly.This did not happen. She had booked a booth in advance so all her friends could celebrate with her sadley due to poor management at the club, When some of her friends tried to get into the club later that evening. An angry and aggressive doorman refused entry saying that the club was full and they would have to wait until someone else has left. This seems extremely strange when my daughter had booked for that amount of people to be in this particular Club. I don't think that door staff Should speak to customers who had paid good money for a night out in an angry and aggressive way especially to shout in my daughter's face saying what do you want me to do about it. My daughter was explaining calmly to the door staff that she had paid for entry of her friends. So if any of you were thinking about booking your party at this particular establishment. I would think again. And perhaps find somewhere that's got. Decent friendly staff And honours promises that were made.The assistant manager has contacted my daughter today and has offered a resolution to correct the errors that were made. My daughter was happy with how this was resolved.

D. S.

Good place. Quiet but expensive. Not quite sure about the horse

M. P.

Dissapointing compared to previous visits. No food available. Beer needed changing, but bar staff suggested this wouldn't happen soon. Also we're 3 minutes short of happy hour without realising it was no longer all day on Sunday which doubled the cost of the round. The beer they did have was OK though and there was plenty of space to sit inside and out.

M. T.

Great during happy hour. Watch out for their weird half price food rules otherwise you might get caught out. Times other than happy hour best avoided. Also some of the seat placements are a bit weird. One section they always have club lights going in your face which is a bit annoying and the booths are situated between both toilets so all you can smell is the toilet when you sit there.

C. B.

interesting little bar this one. they have a very long happy hour where drinks are all half price so it's a great place to start a night out and their spirits are delivered in what look to be bean cans.. because why not?? makes it different. atmosphere was pretty good too there s some interesting art work on the walls and the staff are all pretty attentive though there wasn't many of them so when it gets busy your going to be waiting a while for a drink. music is your usual pop/club light affair it doesn't offend your ears and there is a dance floor if you fancy getting your groove on. overall though I would definitely go back to start a night out there.

R. B.

It's just ok. Others night think that it's great so it's likely a place that suits some more than others. Only seems to cater for fashionable types of drinks. If you are looking for good wine or ale and a cozy environment then you best look elsewhere.

M. B.

OK bar, the beer is moderately well kept. Staff very friendly and does get the sun in the front, so would be OK for a group going into town perhaps. Didn't try the food but did look good from what I could see

N. D.

This place is a fun, cheap, dive, party bar. The wine list is average (when they have a them in stock!) and the cocktails are pretty awful, but if you're not expecting much then it can be good fun with loud music and buzzing atmosphere. Definitely a place to go with a group of mates, not a date!

S. L.

Half price is amazing but table football never works. Seems like no one knows how to make the cocktails from the menu either, also I asked for 4 different ones until the 5th could be made! Need to stock more ingredients or take them off your menu! Waited 30 minutes from first ordering til getting 2 cocktails..

P. R.

Top bar has a great 'Happy Hour '... 5 o'clock until 10pm... 2 for 1 meals some days usually Wednesday some Tuesday's. Busy Friday and Saturday sometimes long wait to get served.

B. C.

Interesting place for a drink. I haven't tried the food there.

N. D.

Do not get the hype of this place at all, yes it's close to the waterfront and I guess during the day and not at busy times is probably a nice place to go. When busy however space is far too cramped. No where to dance tbh and can never get to that bar!

S. D.

Watched the England game here and was a great venue with really good service. Would highly recommend; good to have somewhere with more of an independent vibe in harbourside.

E. L.

Super nice place. Not great for people with sensory issues in hearing

C. R.

I would only pay it a visit during happy hour, which i believe is 5-10 every day of the week. Otherwise it would just be another averagely priced bar on the waterfront. Food is ok but nothing to write home about and perhaps I'm just unlucky, but you very rarely see the same face twice behind the bar.

T. M.

Unbelievable service from Henry! Couldn’t have asked for better service from him and the rest of the bar staff - considering the current climate they were incredibly hospitable and made our night fantastic. Food was also fantastic - compliments to the chef

S. D.

50% off a fantastic selection of drinks every day until 10 makes it a great place to start your night. The decor is a bit weird.. It tries too hard to be cool and edgy.. But the dribk selection makes up for it!

H. S.

Went for an all you can eat pizza and prosecco afternoon with work mates. Excellent value at £20 per person. Pizza was good, only issue was the prosecco was a bit warm.

J. S.

We had three rounds and there was definitely variable quality between servers, but a good range of drinks. Missing quite a few ingredients so I was only able to have my 4th choice, but it was good.

C. S.

Great place to have a drink after work & a great vibe. I must say The waitor we had did come across quite rude and abrupt I would say he quite visibly had, had a long day.

s. B.

We loved the cocktail making for our friends hen do! So much fun!! Aaron was super cute and totally awesome!!! We will be back! Xx

A. P.

another FAB night at steinbeck Bristol!!!! Booked a booth for my besties 21st birthday and the booking with Matt was the easiest and he got me an amazing deal, also Paloma on the night looked after all of us!! The whole team at Steinbeck is incredible they work so hard to keep the place running! Music and drinks were great! Can not wait to come back 10/10

S. B.

Nice atmosphere, cheap but good choice of drinks. Staff friendly. Very loud - don't expect in-depth conversations. Great for a night out!

S. M.

Brilliant happy hour deals! Service is a little slow at times but if you want 50% off drinks including bottles can't complain too much

D. D.

J. D.

Cheap beer before 10, and cheap food on certain days, but the pizza tends to get burnt! Can't grumble at half price booze everyday though...

V. S.

Great bar, good music. Cocktails are at good prices also. Love the decor. Would recommend.

S. R.

Cheap cocktails however didn't have some key liquors and drinks served with no fruit and umbrellas as shown. Good place to start a night out

D. B.

Was a good night with are friends but when I bought drinks I had a problem bit once I reported it not only did they get back but offered free drinks to address it so awarding them the 4 stars the night deserved

M. W.

I went on a Friday night and had the 2 4 1 cocktails, they were lovely and certainly NOT watered down 😂

D. B.

Good for a night out but trying to get served is just impossible ,should have a separate cocktail area .

S. K.

Not a lot going for this place apart from a central location and an upside down horse hanging from the ceiling. Has a half price evening on Fridays but expect a ten minute wait to be served.
