The Jetty

A perfect example of why ratings sometimes don’t paint a true picture. With a rating of 4.1 I decided to take to the streets and find an alternative establishment for my evening meal despite staying at the hotel. Thankfully I ended up back where I started as I just couldn’t decide where to eat, it came very apparent that I had been far too quick to not give consideration to the smart decor and very inviting, friendly front desk staff. Once in the restaurant I was looked after by Gabriel, again another tremendously friendly member of staff with a great knowledge of the menu in front of me, serving behind the counter making drinks was Ben and in the open kitchen were two chefs that cooked up a fantastic meal for which I am very thankful. The very simple dish of squid can be so easily ruined so I decided to order the back up of ham hock croquettes, the squid was amazing and cooked to perfection and the croquettes were also very tasty although I didn’t eat the whole dish for fear of not being able to eat the stone bass which was recommended by Gabriel. The stone bass arrived (see photo) with a salsa Verdi, smashed new potatoes and samphire, the presentation was fantastic and again everything was cooked to perfection. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and certainly wouldn’t hesitate to return, highly recommended

On our first visit, we went for the lighter menu and loved the Prawns and Truffle Mac and Cheese. The second was all about the Champagne Afternoon Tea which we thoroughly enjoyed. A great selection of sandwiches, cakes and scones in a tremendous setting with good service. Reservations are recommended.

We stopped off here for a quick breakfast as other places had already stopped serving. We were met by very kind staff that were more than happy to accommodate us. The food and facilities were great so hopefully next time we’re in Bristol we’ll make a stay in the hotel as well 🤞🏼

I had dinner at the Jetty and it was a terrific experience. Despite being fairly busy, you didn’t notice as they’ve made great use of the space. I opted for the vegan menu which had a two courses for £15 offer and it was delicious. The service was a little on the slow side but everyone was lovely to deal with, so I left a happy customer.

The dining room is very well decorated and the food was good (mussels to start and steak for main) however service was lacking and we asked for the 12.5% service charge to be removed. No offer to refill wine from the bottle we purchased, plates left for a while once we'd finished and sides forgotten with main meal. We were the only people in there at the time so it wasn't because they were busy!
