Berkeley Square Hotel

Overlooking leafy Georgian Berkeley Square, this modern and intimate restaurant is housed in the self-billed first art hotel in Bristol. The ground-floor restaurant has bare-brick walls, well-spaced, candle-lit, chunky wooden tables, and views out over the Square. Service matches the kitchen for its commitment to the cause. Top quality and frequently local produce is intelligently and creatively prepared to allow the flavours to sing out; starters, for example - also billed as 'baby' dishes to share - along the lines of kedgeree balls with natural yoghurt, or cheddar cheese and leek fritters with cider cream. Follow on with pot-roast guinea fowl with roasted vegetable ravioli and a sweet potato and bacon purée.
