About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

Our menu comprises prime cuts of steak, all cooked to perfection in the famous Josper oven, beautiful small plates, delectable desserts and one of the best Sunday roasts in town, as well as a delicious selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

    Wow, went for a birthday meal and we did the 40% off early bird deal, and what a deal it was. The food was some of the best we have ever eaten. The service was lovely and there is a great vibe in the restaurant too. Thank you!

    I’d visited this restaurant pre pandemic while working in Bristol. Back in Bristol for a few nights on business and my fiancé tagged along. I wanted to take him to the Ox and he loved it as much as I did. We both had steaks, cooked to perfection. Triple cooked chips were great. He also had an octopus starter which he raved about. We had a glass each of a very nice Malbec which complimented the steaks really well. Staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive and the ambience was nice and relaxed but warm and welcoming. Highly recommend and we will be back next time we’re in Bristol.
