We popped in for a Sunday roast this week having found the Volunteer Tavern almost by accident. Both the food and atmosphere were amazing. It had a wonderful community pub feel and the staff clearly work hard to make it a relaxed, fun and friendly experience for customers. There’s also a hidden gem for Simpsons fans. We’ll be back next time we are in Bristol!

We ordered beef roasts and are a bit disappointed with the volume of the plates. I know other pubs serve more at the same price. But the atmosphere was nice as well as the staff.

Always known as a great pub, but the new menu is absolutely superb. We had the chicken leg dish and the food was so flavourful. 100% going back to work our way through the menu.

Amazing 100/100 roasts. Me and my friend had a range of roasts vegetarian pork and Beef and all were amazing. We were told our roasts were going to take a little longer which was okay and they gave us extra cauliflower cheese to make up for it. I will defo be returning for some cheesecake !!

The food was amazing. Had the Elote, pork belly bites and tradicional Cuban sandwich. The sandwich was especially good. The pickles extra generous and super tasty. Thank you!

We tried the new menu on opening day and we’re blown away ! Fresh, vibrant flavours & exciting new combos : never had nachos like that before . The cauliflower wings were certainly big enough to share . I went for Buffalo sauce which I thought was medium spiced though my dinner date rated then as very spicy 🥵 Staff were great too Definitely check out La Cocina food and spread the word ! Huge thanks

This is fast becoming my favourite roast in Bristol, everyone gets a yorkie and all the trimmings. Really friendly and lively atmosphere, can get busy on a Sunday so I recommend booking.
