Good Food Awards recognised BANK this year after head chef and co-owner Jack Briggs-Horan and O’Regan introduced a regularly changing evening sharing menu.
O’Regan said: “It’s always really nice to receive any award, but it certainly means a lot when it’s based on diner reviews, votes and feedback.”
“We’re blessed with a wonderful and loyal customer-base, many from the Totterdown community which is such a big part of our identity, so we would like to thank them all for their votes and also their enduring support, as we’ve adapted, grown and developed since first opening our doors.”
“We’ve got some exciting plans for Christmas and early 2024, and can’t wait to take our fire-cooking concept into the winter months.”
