About Top Nosh
Top Nosh is a cafe on Soundwell Rd in Bristol, open for daytime service Monday to Saturday and closed Sundays. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis, with staff finding customers a table. The menu runs to a large breakfast, an omelette served with chips and salad, and a baked potato with a large portion of coleslaw and salad, alongside fried bread and cakes. Coffee is made on a proper machine rather than instant. The entrance is step-free for wheelchair users, and high chairs are available for families with young children. Outdoor seating gives an option for eating outside when the weather allows. Table service continues at pace even when the room fills up.

Customer Review Summary
The large breakfast is what reviewers return to most, with diners praising eggs cooked with running yolks, crispy fried bread that isn't greasy, and food that arrives hot and quickly. The medium breakfast gets similar approval, and several describe large portions at a reasonable price. Close behind are the omelette with chips and salad, called out of this world by one diner, and a baked potato served with a large portion of fresh coleslaw and salad. The coffee is described as good and lovely, and one reviewer mentions cakes and a real coffee machine. Many describe the staff as friendly and welcoming, the room as spotlessly clean, and service as quick even when busy. Families, including a party of seven, say they felt looked after. The criticisms are small: one reviewer found the atmosphere quite loud with workers chatting, and another wanted more colour on basic sausages. One reviewer who arrived mid-morning on a busy day was found a table very quickly.

“Lovely, independent local cafe. Quick service even when busy. Loved my visit today. No issues or problems. The rating for this store is to low in my opinion should be 5.0. 😁 Kid/baby friendly.”

“So good local cafe serving good food for everybody. I had a large breakfast today. And both of the eggs yolk was still running for me. That my toast in on my bread, fantastic someone in the kitchen, it's trying to keep standards high, just like the rest of the staff. Spotlessly clean in there.This is why customers will come back again and again.Please support your local cafe highly recommended”
