Serving a delicious vegetarian and plant-based menu
OUR FOOD
A vegetarian restaurant, putting plant-based dishes at the front of our menus, we believe in Food Made Good, and have been following the same philosophy with our food since we opened in 2009. 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 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, encouraging you to try new flavour combinations.
Coming for a celebration or in a big group? We’ve got our great group menu for tables of 8 or more. Check out a sample menu here and get in touch via email to make your booking hello@canteenbristol.co.uk
bookings only confirmed if we reply to confirmation via email
Please email hello@canteenbristol.co.uk for all December tables of 6 and over – as we’ve limited the online system due to Christmas party season
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.
Our wine list is exclusively European and celebrates UK producers alongside fossil-free imports from Portugal that arrive by sailboat and electric car.
Our cocktail list is something to be marvelled. From classics like Old Fashioned to our very own Lime n Thyme spritz made with house infused vodka, we love every ingredient.
We also have a great list of non-alcoholics, from mocktails to 0%. Just ask the bar team.
And of course, 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.
