Popular food and drink shop to close

By Martin Booth  Monday Mar 6, 2023

A shop specialising in cheese and beer is set to join the growing list of hospitality industry casualties in Bristol.

Lara Issa and Dom Pulsford moved from London to Bristol to open Two Belly on Whiteladies Road in 2018.

But they will soon be handing the keys back to their landlords, with a ‘to let’ sign already in place above the shop.

Lara and Dom’s second premises within the Bristol Loaf in Bedminster will also no longer be affiliated with Two Belly.

The couple also branched out into street food with their food truck The Cheese Guys, which recently went indoors with a week-long pop-up at Kitchen by Kask on North Street.
