  “Came here on a sunny weekday morning around 10am - busy but still lots of seats available. Dog friendly and quick to order with drinks and food coming quickly. We had Americanos, bacon sandwiches and tuna salad sandwiches - all great. Great views and nice to be under the trees in the shade.”

  “Had a lovely experience here today. Our group is quite difficult to cater for, but there was something for everybody. Dog friendly outdoor seating area. Staff extremely courteous and helpful. Chip butty very good (all others in the group enjoyed their food too). There are a couple of disabled parking bays right by the seating here, so if you are a blue badge holder looking for somewhere easy to go with a harbourside view, this is great. There are accessible WCs a little further on at M Shed. There are a few small steps with handrails on one side, and a flat entrance on the other which I've tried to show in the photos. Only thing for the staff/manager to consider is the first bench we sat on was incredibly rickety and felt like it might collapse. I was worried about the wheelchair user in our group sitting on this, but luckily we were able to move. It was the bench closest to the water, 2 down from the nearest disabled parking bay. Perhaps this can be checked, and given a bit of maintenance to avoid any potential future incidents. However, this didn't spoil our enjoyment. Also, incredibly good value for this area. Would come again.”

  “Good quality food and service. All freshly cooked when ordered so a short 5 min wait definitely worth it and very good value Has undercover seating to protect from rain and seagulls”

  “Absolutely disgusting! Worse bacon sandwich ever ! Really thick Bread with scarcely two pieces of bacon in it - 3 crispy/cremated ends of bacon and one half a piece of bacon, reasonably cooked. Very quiet - no excuses acceptable. What has happened ! The Buttery used to be good, over the last few years it has gone from okay to this ??”

  “A fabulous food and drink stop, right by the water's edge. Superb, friendly and efficient staff dish up great tea and coffee (plus other drinks) with a great selection of snackable food including burgers and their famous bacon and egg roll. Truly good value with fully loaded rolls (or bread if you prefer). Fabulous!”

  “Enjoyed our trip around the SS Great Britain although very expensive. Guides very knowledgeable. Lots of stairs but there is a lift for the less able. Also toilets within the ship itself. There's an adjoining cafe but we didn't use it so can't speak for the food.”

  “Spotted this small outdoor place on one of my walks in Bristol so I had to stop and try the products. The place is on Museum Street by the quayside on the way to SS Great Britain. It was great to see how many locals stopped for something to eat. I had a coffee with a bacon and egg roll. The staff were attentive and welcoming but also they had a lot of homemade items with very reasonable prices.”

  “The perfect location for drinks and food after a good old walk around the docks. Lovely hot coffee and yummy chips. You can even sit on the old railway carriages which is pretty cool aswell as practical. Especially with kids or dogs.”

  “Thick cut sliced bread filled with smashed avocado, bacon, sausage, a fried egg and salad. I love how you can tailor your sandwich as you wish. The view of the harbour is a nice setting too. It can get busy/rowdy on the weekend mornings (when I went) so I’d like to try going again on a weekday to have a more peaceful breakfast.”
