Cafes / Harbourside
New cafe opening soon in the Harbourside
It has just been named as one of the best urban places to live in the UK by the Sunday Times, and now the Harbourside is set to get another place for your caffeine fix.
Rod & Ruby’s is opening soon on Cathedral Walk in a unit that has stood empty since being built in 2009. It sits opposite an identical building that Hargreaves Lansdown recently took on for staff training.
The new cafe is due to open in October, with their Instagram account showing work already beginning on the inside of the building:

There is no shortage of cafes in this corner of Bristol, with Friska and Costa only a few hundred yards away, and Young & Foodish at the other end of Cathedral Walk.
Rod & Ruby’s is bucking a recent trend in the local neighbourhood, which has seen photography shop Shutter & Flash, party shop Flingers, The Triathlon Shop and Beyond The Wall cafe all closing in quick succession.
It will join new bar Loose Cannon in an area that the Sunday Times calls “Bristol’s most interesting place to live, work and play”.
