   Great delicious food - we had lovely roasts with very generous portions - and the desserts were works of art with unusual but symbiotic flavours. The staff were very helpful as they were very busy but managed to fit us in in another room and it was comfortable and quiet.

   Best roast I’ve ever had, would recommend to anyone. Me and my wife both had the belly pork it just fell apart and the taste was amazing. Look forward to returning very soon.

    Probably the best roast in Bristol. Lovely, fresh ingredients. Homemade Yorkies and scrumptious cauli cheese. Desserts were sublime. Service was great as well

    Very scrumptious food. The only comment was that the mains could have been a little bit bigger. It seemed like a taster menu, portion wise. We'll go again!

    Food was amazing, one of the best roasts we have had in Bristol. A long wait between courses but definitely worth the wait. The restaurant itself was really cold. A few people at each table kept their coats on and I ordered a cup of tea to warm up. The bar seemed a lot warmer but the restaurant itself wasn't warm enough.

    Really high quality food, well cooked and presented with attentive and friendly service. Perhaps more than I spend on a normal roast but this is well worth the extra.

    Fantastic experience, visited for the second time for my husbands birthday. Great menu choice, we found it hard to choose as there were so many things we liked. Service was spot on and the food was fabulous. Particularly liked the crab starter and Guinea fowl main course. We’d definitely go back.

    Best dining experience for a very long time. We arrived a little bit late but were welcomed with a warm smile. The service is faultless and the food exceptional. Would definitely recommend and go back ourselves. The only thing missing in my opinion is a vegetarian option on the menu.

    I came away from my birthday dinner at the Star and Dove with a smile I could hardly contain and a memory I will not forget. I have not stopped raving about the meal. My only regret was that we did not prepare ourselves all day for the gustation as we did not feel we could embrace the 3 courses. It is indeed almost impossible to say what was the stand out but as it was my birthday by an minuscule nudge it was my dessert. The Chocolate Gateau orange ginger with ice cream was sublime. I never wanted that pleasure to end. Time was actually standing still for a brief moment as ever so slowly and with the serenity it deserved each mouthful was embraced. Seriously the best dessert I have ever tasted. We will definitely be back and the Star and Dove will be our go to restaurant.

    This was our second visit to this venue and we were as impressed as the first time. This is a restaurant making a real effort and succeeding. We eat in many of the best restaurants in Bristol and this one is right up there with the best. Definitely worth a short taxi from time. Try it, you will not be disappointed!
