  “Really busy on a Friday night but a great atmosphere & a huge variety of food. Highly recommend the braai bread & memphis tater tots, they taste amazing!! Everyone in our group highly enjoyed the food. Didn't get ohitis of our mains as we ate them straight away!! So good.”

  “Food was immense. Burger patty needed a tad more seasoning but overall - good food. The burger wax bigger than my head so getting dirty fries and coleslaw was totally unnecessary :) Staff were cool and helped with recommendations on potential local live music spots. Location is great as overlooking the river. Would come back.”

  “I was really impressed with the amount of gluten-free options on the menu. The jalapeno cheese-stuffed sausage was particularly good. Large portions and free refills on soft drinks. Order came quickly. In-door and outdoor seating with views over the harbour”

  “Had an overall good experience at Spitfire during a weekday afternoon. The food tasted amazing, and their chips were also in point! Overall a flawless experience.”

  “Loved Spitfire. Visited with my son and Texan daughter in law, who fully also rated the BBQ. A feast for 3 people was £115, good value. All of the food was outstanding but shout out to the burnt ends, mac and cheese and Spitfire sausage. Service was unfailingly lovely but just a bit slow. Relax and chill into it and all good. Will return!”

  “I have been looking forward to this since booking a few months ago. We was greeted by friendly wait staff and taken to our table. We booked a early lunch at 2pm. Now for the but that broke my heart. The brisket was not ready......our group of 3 ordered chicken wings, pulled pork, brisket burnt ends and jalapeño and cheese sausage with mac and cheese side and dirty fries. Every aspect of the meal was amazing, fresh and tasty. But.... with no brisket ready even at 3.30pm when we left it will always leave a sad bitter taste. I wanted to give it 5 stars but had to mark down for the no brisket.”

  “Spitfire has been on my list for a while, so was looking forward to going on my recent weekend in Bristol. Ordered the belly burnt ends, brisket burnt ends, pulled pork, brisket, tater tots and Mac n cheese. Belly burnt ends were great. Brisket burnt ends were a mixed bag with some pieces being tasty and fairly tender and others being so dry it was difficult to swallow them. Pulled pork was great, though it's difficult to not get pulled pork right. The brisket was terrible, some of the worst brisket I've had and was very disappointing. It was so tough it was difficult to cut and chew. Didn't even bother eating the rest of the brisket. The sides were great. The pulled pork sandwiches looked great and my friends tried those. Perhaps better to stick to the basics like pulled pork sandwiches. It was also a very long wait time for food to arrive, about 1:10-1:20 hours after we ordered. Service staff were great and very friendly. The vibe was also nice being riverside and the weather being splendid for an early evening dinner.”

  “A few reviews have said not value for money…I would disagree as the portion sizes are really generous. The rib was amazing, melt in the mouth and delicious barbecue sauce and rub, mac and cheese was also very good with a lovely well done crust. Only downside was inside was very noisy but food was excellent”

  “This is a great place for food That is also affordable. We had pork ribs and more pork brisket and some more pork dressed chips. All of it was smashing. The service was very slow - waited like 1hr15mins to be served our food - so did other customers as when we walked in at 8pm the place was full but almost no one was eating (Random Wedn night). Staff was attentive and were happy to offer us a drink to make up for the long wait. We also had a flatbread but I don’t recommend as the dough was just water and flour and had no substance. Go for the meat - you won’t regret !”
