Serving up our delicious vegetarian and plant-based menu
OUR FOOD
We are a fully vegetarian restaurant, putting plant-based dishes at the front of our thinking.
We believe in Food Made Good, and have been following the same philosophy with our food since we opened over ten years ago. We aim for the food we serve to be seasonal, locally sourced and deliciously nutritious.
Working with the seasons means a regular changing menu making the ingredients as mouth-wateringly fresh as you’ll get. This gives both us and you lots of opportunity to try new flavours.
All our menus use local produce, sourcing majoritively from a 100-mile radius, and closer where possible. Our suppliers are carefully chosen for aligning with our values, many of them being based right here, in Bristol. Our food has less distance to travel, making it fresher on arrival!
Our flexible format of changing dishes allows us to continue to act sustainably and work closely with our suppliers and their produce. If they have a glut of broad beans, then broad beans will be on the menu! This in turn supports local agriculture and helps to reduce food waste.
Our chef, Laura, has put together lunch and dinner menus with a gorgeous array of small plate dishes, giving you the opportunity to try lots of flavour combinations all in one meal. Pick as many or as few as you like. We recommend 2-3 per person.
AND EVERYONE’S FAVOURITE FOOD DAY
SUNDAY
Not forgetting what Sundays have always been about. We serve up our fantastically famous roast dinners. Complete with all the seasonal trimmings you could ever wish for, and some tempting sides to really make a meal of it.
Also available is a great selection of our small plates – making The Canteen the perfect Sunday spot. Check out a sample menu here.
Pairing it all up with local beers, organic, biodynamic & natural wines or locally distilled spirits we are putting The Canteen firmly on the Bristol Foodie Map.

OUR DRINKS
Beers, ciders, ales – we are really proud of our Bristol brewed offering. With frequently changing draught and a good selection of cans and bottles, booze is the blood flowing through us.
Good quality organic coffee from Extract Coffee Roasters, served by trained baristas and available with semi-skimmed cow or oat milk. Extract also supply our wide range of fruit and herb teas and all our creamy hot chocolate.
Our wine list is exclusively European and celebrates UK producers alongside fossil-free imports from Portugal that arrive by sailboat and electric car.
The newly introduced cocktail list is exclusively sourced from Bristol distillers and brewers, making it fresh, local and great for the planet.
