Cosy Club — Restaurant in Bristol

The Cosy Club strikes that perfect balance between upmarket dining and genuine value that’s surprisingly rare these days. I’ve been coming here regularly for breakfast, and it’s become my favourite spot for a proper weekend treat.

The English breakfast here is absolutely superb – everything you’d expect from a quality establishment. The ingredients are clearly top-notch: proper sausages with actual meat content, thick-cut bacon cooked to perfection, free-range eggs, proper mushrooms, and quality toast. It’s presented beautifully without being pretentious, and the portions are generous without being excessive. What impresses me most is that despite the upmarket atmosphere and quality ingredients, the pricing is remarkably reasonable. You’re getting restaurant-quality food at prices that won’t break the bank.

The staff are genuinely exceptional – attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and always friendly and professional. They make you feel welcome whether you’re dressed casually or smartly, which creates a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. Service is prompt, they’re excellent at accommodating dietary requirements, and they clearly take pride in their work.

The venue itself is beautifully decorated – comfortable seating, lovely interior design, and a sophisticated ambience that makes breakfast feel like a proper occasion rather than just refuelling. It’s equally suitable for catching up with friends, a relaxed business meeting, or simply treating yourself.

If you want a breakfast experience that feels special without the eye-watering prices of boutique establishments, The Cosy Club delivers...

I am very disappointed with this restaurant. Me and my colleagues (16 of us) booked a table at this restaurant expecting to be sat together, this wasn’t the case and we were split one behind the other.

We asked if we could be sat together and the waitress and manager decided this could not be done. This was disappointing and unorganised after me and my colleagues booked in advance. I understand on a Friday night that the restaurant is busy (and it was) but we should’ve been notified that this was going to be the case.

The waitress was extremely nice and polite but the service was dreadfully slow, to wait over an hour for a desert is unacceptable and within that time, to be asked for drinks 3 times, we felt the restaurant was taking advantage as we were likely the last customers on these tables before they shut, so keeping us there longer for us to purchase more drinks.

The food itself was good, not brilliant. The food was served at different timings compared to the other split table so when they were eating, we were waiting.

When it got to the deserts, the restaurant ran out of cutlery so we were given tea spoons, and the portions were all different sizes.

Then the icing on the cake was the 10% service charge on the bill.

I am extremely disappointed in this big chain and popularity of this restaurant, I excepted a lot more and I felt exceptions on this occasion have not been met. I will not be returning anytime soon nor recommending this restaurant. I hope the restaurant can read this review and make any necessary changes for any...

We were visitors to Bristol and while planning our trip Cosy Club kept coming up as a ‘must visit’ so we thought surely it had to be good!

Wrong! We decided to visit for breakfast on our first day there after a long flight and it was a very cold welcome to Bristol in more ways than one.

We were the first ones there and the gentleman at the door couldn’t look more displeased to see us.

Decor inside was nice but the place was cold and it didn’t feel like there was any heating on. We both ordered pancakes which came surprisingly fast, yet somehow were also cold! My mum’s were barely warm and mine weren’t at all - not to mention both were tough and slightly chewy as if they’d been over microwaved or sat out for too long.

For drinks we had smoothies which were both quite watery and not really chilled, as if they’d been premade and sitting at room temp. We didn’t stay for very long and other than the interesting ceiling architecture and decor could not understand the hype.

Gentleman seemed friendlier and did smile at us and said goodbye as we left. Nice of him but it made it feel like us leaving made him happier than when...
