So that’s the burgers. And there are also new pizzas to look forward to soon with the opening of Zero-Zero at 2B High Street in Easton, just around the corner from No. 12 Easton (above) who are still on the hunt for somewhere to open a second premises. Staying in Easton, Cafe Joanna on Chelsea Road has been transformed into Easy Rawlins.
Alongside Meat Liquor, other chains expanding into Bristol soon include Giggling Squid with its Thai tapas concept taking over what used to be Strada on Princess Victoria Street in Clifton Village. Following the unusual name theme, Rockfish Grill on Blackboy Hill has reopened as The Spiny Lobster.
Another name change and refurbishment is currently taking place at My Burrito on the centre. Fuego promises “the flavour of Latin American street markets”. In a first for Bristol, a taste of what to expect could be found at a three-week pop-up at 40 Alfred Place in Kingsdown last month.
Currently still a pop-up on St Stephen’s Street is Spoke & Stringer, which promises to “bring aspects of ride culture together” with a cafe, bar and shop opening on the harbourside.
The Hill pub on Cotham Hill is due to be transformed into the Brewhouse & Kitchen, complete with a microbrewery on the premises; while the Hope & Anchor on Jacob’s Wells Road has recently been reopened by the team behind the Volunteer Tavern in St Jude’s.
