Taste of Napoli — Restaurant in Bristol

I’ve always loved Taste of Napoli. The original spot had this amazing homemade feel—you could tell everything was made with care. So when I heard you were opening a second location on Park Street, I was really excited.

But after visiting, I have to be honest—I left feeling a little disappointed. Some of the things that made the original place special seem to have changed. The biggest letdown for me was the tiramisu. It used to be this rich, creamy, homemade treat, and now it’s just a pre-packaged product. I get that expanding can be tricky, but the homemade touch was what set you apart.

Park Street has a lot of food options, and what made Taste of Napoli stand out was that it felt real—like a little slice of Italy, not just another shop selling imported goods. I’d hate to see that get lost. People love you for the authenticity, and I really believe keeping that homemade essence will help you thrive in both locations.

I’ll still be back, hoping to see that magic return. Wishing you all the best with this...

I hate to do this review, but this is one of my favourite places to eat. I love their pizza, and their cannoli are gorgeous. Plus, they have lots of vegetarian options and look after my daughter who likes the salami but has a dairy allergy, so they made hers with vegan cheese (it’s small - don’t try this if they are busy). Their icecream is also amazing. Vegan pistachio was a dream. It’s quite a small place. Super friendly staff and a lot of Italian customers as the food is awesome. Did I mention the arancini? But it can be difficult to sit if it’s raining as the majority of seats are outside.This is a difficult review as now I’ve told you how awesome this little place is there won’t be any space for me! (Update) went here twice in two days. It continues to be great, authentic and friendly. If you just want a coffee & snack, or lunch it’s perfect. Why go to a chain when these guys make everything and do...

I understand cafés in city centres are more expensive, but paying £4.25 for a macchiato feels excessive when most cafés around charge about £2.20. I mentioned to staff that tourist hotspots like the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain, a macchiato rarely costs this much. Pricing in central Rome or Lake Como or London is still generally lower than their price. It seems unfair to justify higher costs based solely on location, especially when the coffee here tastes weaker and less refined than places I’ve been to in all England. The staff were friendly and accommodating. But nice service doesn’t make up for the coffee being overpriced and underwhelming compared to nearby cafés I’ve tried like coffee#1 next door. I appreciate trying to always support local, but if the quality and value aren’t there, especially compared to other city cafés, it feels...
