About No.1 Harbourside
No.1 Harbourside is a restaurant in Bristol at 1 Canon's Rd, with seating right on the water in the harbour. The tables let guests watch people and boats go by, and a covered terrace sits at the Waterfront. Live music plays on weekends, which gives the harbourside setting a soundtrack for an afternoon or evening out. The bar pours pints and cider alongside a wider choice of drinks. Tables can be booked in advance, and the restaurant is open daily.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the waterside seating, where a table by the harbour suits pints, people-watching and boat-watching, with a cider and a pint of Staropramen both mentioned. Close behind are the friendly staff, who made one diner a personalised mocktail and prepared a cocktail another reviewer likened to a live performance. Food draws praise too: tempeh goujons, salty chips, mussels and carrot cake, plus good veggie options. One reviewer notes live music on weekends. Complaints are scattered but specific. One group arriving on a Sunday found the breakfast menu had changed and left for another venue, though they called the staff polite and apologetic. Another reviewer asked for sweeteners with a coffee and met blank expressions. One calls it a little pricey and says the total was not given before paying by card, and another reports being overcharged for a pint of Staropramen, then receiving a full refund.

“Ok so so disappointed No1 Harbourside was recommended we booked the day before for x6 people and planned to have breakfast today (Sunday) arrive just after 10 and sat down the menus were on the tables ; glanced and could not see much breakfast choices, I did see a different menu on the internet, but I also wanted a smoothie or juice and went to ask and was told that the menu changed some time ago and they no longer do the same breakfast menu....there was a couple who had seen the menu online and were expecting more too, the staff who we spoke to were absolutely lovely, polite and apologetic thank you. Unfortunately we left and went to The Lounge. I've given three stars for the two staff who spoke to us. could not rate atmosphere or food as we did not stay.”

“Lovely friendly staff. Lush sitting right by the water in the harbour - could have been abroad (or in St Ives with the diving seagulls!). Very delish food - tempeh goujons were great, lovely salty proper chips and plenty of drink options. Had such a nice early evening out after work with my buddies. We were reassured by staff that seagulls only dive onto empty tables with food, and that was the case while we were there - phew! Def go back again <3”

“Only called in for a coffee, no table service but drinks were brought to the table? Request for sweetners or saccharine were met with vague blank expressions from both members of staff and claimed they had never been asked before !”
- Gareth Raymond
“Update: I was overcharged and they have provided a full refund. £10.40 for a pint of Staropramen! Absolutely taking the mick”
