Had a beautiful afternoon tea for a special occasion with family. We were sat in the conservatory style part overlooking the garden. The building is stunning, lovely decor, service was also really good. Good vegetarian options. We couldn’t finish it all so they gave us nice bags to take the rest home. Small note is that the disabled toilet door wouldn’t lock and it would also benefit from being as beautifully decorated as the other toilets downstairs.

Really loved the attention and kindness shown towards our engagement meal. The bill surprised us totally as the desserts 🍨 were on the house and so was the welcoming champagne. The highlight for me food wise was the Salt and Pepper Calamari started and the Sticky Toffee pudding! Beautiful evening ✨️ that was made extra special. Thank you for our wonderful first dining experience here!

The Ivy never fails to impress, but this spot in Bristol is easily a place you can trust for consistent quality. If you live in the city, this should definitely be in your regular rotation.

We opted for the 2-course menu, starting with the French Onion Soup and following up with The Ivy Classic Shepherd's Pie–a flawless combination. To pair with the meal, we chose the Rioja Alavesa (Bhilar Tinto, Bodegas Bhilar); the wine was exquisite, and we would order it again in a heartbeat.

The atmosphere is wonderful, but the service was the real highlight. We were there to celebrate a birthday, and simply mentioning it led to a lovely surprise–the staff brought out a celebratory cake with a candle completely on their own initiative. It is rare to find such genuine and thoughtful hospitality. Considering the stunning setting, the quality of the food, and the level of service, the value for money is incredible. Don't hesitate to visit–highly recommended!
