About Bambalan

A rooftop spot in the middle of Bristol with a balcony that catches the late sun, plenty of room to park a pram and a kids' menu, high chairs and vegan options if you've got fussy eaters in tow. The team tend to be warm and quick — one family was seated straight away on a Monday and had burgers on the table fifteen minutes after ordering, with fries that come in for real praise (crispy outside, fluffy inside). The sweet potato fries and pizza get a lot of love too. Two honest snags: the music can be loud enough that conversation is hard, and service wobbles badly when it's busy, especially at weekend bottomless brunch. Go on a quieter weekday evening and it's a genuinely relaxed place to feed everyone.
