The Gallimaufry in Bristol

Went for dinner with a few friends at a restaurant over the road and tried to go here for a drink after. We were denied entry because our group was "too big". We were a group of 4 couples in our late 20s, hardly a rowdy crowd. If you want to turn away business and discriminate then good luck to you.

Such a nice place to grab a drink or to watch the world go by. Music's varied and always good. Brilliant fay or night! One of Glos Rds finest establishments.

Great starters! And fantastic service.. the main was very disappointing.. the gnocchi was not edible.. looked like it has been deep fried several times and didn’t look like gnocchi even… toilets were also pretty bad..

Had a table booked for a Sunday Roast. Staff were attentive to begin with but food took over an hour to come. Complimentary drink given but unfortunately they gave me the wrong pint and didn’t seem like they believed me when I mentioned this. When the food came the staff were apologetic however my food had baking paper in it. I felt the staff were quite dismissive of this. Overall we spent 3 hours there for 2 drinks and a main course due to how slow the food and service ended up being. Wouldn’t go back after this experience

Had dinner here with friends. As the website was under construction I asked for the menu to be sent which they said they would, but they didn't, despite asking twice. It was a very limited selection of mains, and it was far too dark, we could hardly see either the menu or the meal itself. I had the aranciini, they were rather stodgy, and overpriced. Good service, but wouldn't really recommend eating here, OK for a drink.

The welcome seemed a bit aggressive - our request for a table for two was immediately met with an unsmiling "For food?" When we nodded we were told they would get a table ready, and ordered us meanwhile to get a drink from the bar!The menu was interesting, but the food was disappointing. The potatoes seemed like they had been microwaved one time too many, and the vegan "Wellington" was overcooked.I won't be going there again. Cost for 2 including soft drinks was £40. I did not leave a tip.

Love this place. Amazing food, great art, fun buzz and live music.

Food was brilliant. I had chicken wrap. Amazing. Service was brill. Even small hiccup over mayo was dealt with brilliantly and professionally. Decor in place is awesome. So vibrant and colourful. Definitely would go again.

Had a few cocktails here last year and they wernt great. Gave it another try today based on the food reviews and what a roast dinner. Pork belly and whole dinner was absolutely superb. Had quite a few roasts in Bristol lately and this was up there with the best I've had. Nice to see they have a decent barman in who makes a great margarita too 👌👌👌

The decor is a bit anonymous or maybe it was just my impression as there were no tables inside, but a part from that, food is excellent. One of the best pork belly I ever had 😋 Thank you, I’ll definitely be back
