Brook's Bar

Brook’s Bar and Kitchen is located in a stunning 16th century former coaching house on the High Street of Chipping Sodbury. During the day they serve coffee, tea, alcohol and soft drinks. They also sell delicious cakes and pastries and sandwiches, all handmade daily by The Cottage Bakery. I was waiting to write this review until today (28/05/2019) because I had also been on Saturday - 25/05/2019 for drinks in the evening and thought I would wait until I had tried an afternoon experience. So on Saturday upon recommendations from friends I decided to give Brook’s a try with 3 of my friends, one of them being someone who recommended me to go to Brook’s. Brook’s Bar and Kitchen has only been opened since 30th March 2019 so is still fairly new. Anyway Saturday night was lovely! It was quite busy in there but a nice chilled bar atmosphere - not too loud or crowded and not full of young people. We managed to get a table with no trouble at all and then headed up to the bar to get some drinks. The cocktails were all incredible - strong but nice tasting and beautifully made. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming at Brook’s which really adds to the experience. During the evening I enquired about making reservations as I wanted to make a reservation for 28/05/2019 for 3 people for lunch for my partners 30th Birthday. The staff were really accommodating and I was told at the moment they are only doing sandwiches, cakes, pastries etc which to be honest was exactly what I was looking for. I made a reservation for 2 adults and 1 child for 12:30 and I was able to select in advance what sandwiches we would like. We stayed in Brooks on Saturday night for quite a while before moving on at 22:50. I loved it on Saturday night so couldn’t wait to try an afternoon at Brook’s. We arrived there today almost bang on 12:30 and it was quite quiet however I didn’t mind that at all. Once again the staff were friendly, welcoming and accommodating and the food was delicious - the sandwiches were so fresh and tasty and great quality ingredients. Brook’s is clean and tidy and the toilets are also in good condition. Another note about the toilets is that the ladies contain sanitary products should people need to use them which is a nice touch as most places do not offer this. The founder, owner and bartender has travelled around the world and has international qualifications in mixology. I will 100% be going back to Brook’s again! My only improvement would be more advertisement - if I’m honest I think unless someone has told me it was there I wouldn’t have known, but I’m glad I know about it now as I loved it.

Great service and sensibly priced cocktails. A hidden gem for a pre- dinner drink

Brook’s is a lovely and welcoming cocktail bar and a great place to head to on the high street for a drink (or three!). They have a wide variety of cocktails from around the world, all competitively priced and delicious! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a fun night out, or a quick one after work on a sunny afternoon. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, clean and tidy, comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. A regular haunt!

Great cocktails and reasonable price. It can get busy though, had to wait a good 20 minutes. Quick service for normal drinks though. (Friday) Second visit (Saturday) and quick cocktails so it's a 5 stars now 😊

Great little cocktail bar in the evening. (Also open for food, I think at lunch, but doesn't do food in the evening.) Nice selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Comfy sofas as well as seats at the bar and window. Can pay by card.
