"Some nice dishes, some gluten free options, the quality of service depends on who's behind the counter! ie in the past, the food description wasn't as stated and when my pregnant daughter couldn't eat it, I tried to discuss this with the woman on duty, who was rude, dismissive and so much as called me a liar! (not sure but she may have been the owner) I didn't return for a few years! But recently, the man serving was really lovely. Well priced food, decor a bit shoddy, but menu good for a breakfast or lunch. SO the rating is on my last experience."

Love this cafe. So down to earth and the most friendly and genuine staff. The food is presented and prepared like restaurant food and the best ingredients are used. The prices are low considering the quality of the food. Coffee and breakfasts are best in Bristol. Vegan and meat choices are equally gorgeous! Thankyou so much : View menu

I highly recommend this cafe! I was hoping to find a nice spot within walking distance of my rental flat and I couldn’t be happier. It has a lovely, homely and local feel. Food and service were excellent, and since I came early I witnessed how successful they are by the number of people trickling in while I enjoyed my breakfast. Wishing The Faraway Tree continued success!

Good place on Church Road. Only open for lunch or so which is the only negative i can think of. Haven’t tried the breakfast options but the menu looked great. There were plenty options to chose from! I ordered a rustic salad with tofu and i really liked it, it was very filling and well worth it. Bonus points for having a few tables in the front looking our the window, where you can just chill and work on your laptop. Free parking available on adjacent streets.

"Koocha, while hard to get a booking at, is 100% worth the effort! I would recommend the oyster wings above all else, I was considering ordering a second portion. We ordered two large plates and two mezze between two people, which filled us up plenty. We also got some cocktails which were lovely, and since we arrived early we got the two of the same for £15 deal. The staff are always lovely too, and while the place is small and intimate, it was never too loud for conversation. The only downside is that a lot of the menu is often unavailable, which is a shame, but everything we did order was delicious, and there was still plenty of choice. Edit: Since going back I have found the whole menu has been available so I think they have resolved any supply issues! Updated from previous review on 2023-08-28"

"got here! no warning. best food! booked a table of a recommendation from a friend, mistakenly appeared early, the host greeted us and sat us as soon as possible, really inviting. we asked for additional starters and they were happy to make the adjustment, and I don't even think they added it to our final bill. eating came in good time and was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection. I loved the wobblebhaji. we had free poppadome 4 different sauces and a dessert to share. this is by far the best service I have ever received and I personally was not a fan of Indian cuisine before I came to visit here, I am rebuilt! will definitely return. the whole food is beautifully presented, tastes exquisite and the team are so beautiful, polite and have a little laugh with them!"

"Firstly, a text to check we are still good for the table is a nice touch. Great greeting from these lovely people when we arrived. The food was really nice, no it's not cheap but you shouldn't expect it to be. We enjoyed a host of dishes, the bread with dips the pepper one being our favourite. We had the croquetas, small but tasty, some beautiful potatoes (can't remember what they were), that might be the sauvignon blanc making me forget. We also had the sea bream, the belly pork, the octopus and squid salad, the chicken thigh skewers and the duck to name a few. We also had a selection of puddings including a cheesecake and a rich chocolate torte, again very nice dishes. I really enjoyed the food and there was a good vibe from the team and the customers, wouldn't hesitate to recommend."

"This is a very cozy restaurant with just about 10 tables, so I highly recommend making a reservation in advance. The food is absolutely incredible; I've been here a few times, and each visit has been fantastic. The prices are quite reasonable as well; my partner and I can enjoy a meal and drinks for around £40 total and leave feeling full! I suggest trying a selection of smaller dishes to savor the range of flavors."

"Visited here in Sept 23 for an executive dinner that we were hosting for various senior business leaders. We booked out the whole venue, which was the perfect size and atmosphere for the intimate and exclusive feel that we wanted, plus a convenient location. The TV that shows into the kitchen was fascinating, and the record player was put to use towards the end of the evening! Caroline from the venue helped us organise the event in advance and was great to deal with. We were fortunate with the weather so were able to enjoy a welcome drinks reception out the front of the venue, and have the door open all evening to let the balmy night in. We had the 7 course taster menu and it was simply OUTSTANDING so many of our guests commented on how delicious it was, particularly the beef steak course! It was so tasty that I even enjoyed the fish dish (not usual for me! . Service on the night was exemplary, the courses were brought out at just the right intervals so you weren't waiting ages but also not being rushed. The chef came out to greet us after the final course, which was a lovely touch and meant we could thank him. Overall, we had really great feedback from our guests, everyone loved it thank you for making our event such a success! We would definitely book again, and I know a few of our guests have already recommended it to their own companies for executive dinners! Would not hesitate to recommend."
