Love this place - always friendly staff no matter how busy things are (and it's often packed out). Food reliably good - can always find something we like here. Coffee is always great too. Love the booths to sit and catch up with friends/family - not so keen on the open plan table area as it can be pretty echoey. Highly recommended.

Wheelchair accessibility
There are steps down from the toilet/counter area to the back room - and up from the counter area to the non-disabled toilets. I think there's a wheelchair accessible toilet at the front, next to the counter. There's a ramp going up from the street to the entrance, with 3 or 4 tables with easily moveable chairs by the front counter, and outdoor tables, a few of which have moveable chairs. You can order and pay for everything from your table using the app.

I went to this branch to visit as I went to have some lunch with my family I did not mind the new approach with the online order but was not impressed after my order went through that I had to wait 35 minutes for food as due to staff shortage I spent so much money in there and was told this after I had placed my order one of my family members was on a lunch break so had restricted time but had to wait for his food the coffee was well presented but tasted bland & was cold with no flavour considering I ordered caramel syrup with the order it did not taste like a caramel latte I have made better coffee at home than this. The food was well presented but did not represent the price I paid for it if it is my choice I wouldn’t come here again.

  • Callum MacKenzie

Today my close friend took me to Boston Tea Party for the very first time and I was so extremely pleased with what I have experienced. I was immediately taken aback with the brilliant organisation of the team. Despite an extremely large and bustling seating area we were sat near immediately and are food and drink came impressively quickly. My friend recommended the iced coffee with avocado which I was initially hesitant about but would now say is a must try!! All round extremely please with my experience here and will definitely be returning. Pictured Below: my friends mango lassi and eggs Benedict (iced coffee didn’t last long enough to be documented!!!).

  • Hall ZHANG

Famous brunch restaurant on the street, very spacious with dozens of tables. The staff is very friendly and that works hard to keep everywhere clean. We ordered burger ,beef and coffee. The burger is delicious with a bit spicy. The beef mash stacked like a piece of art. The tea selection is very limited and make the tea party confusing. A bit annoying that a few flies around. Keep you busy for protecting the food and a drink

Reliable and solid spot for decent coffee and breakfast. The salt beef hash was really good and a nice change from the usual eggs florentine/Benedict. Didn’t try the pancakes but they looked good. Coffee was solid without being spectacular. Plenty of seating and if you’re lucky you can find a parking spot nearby. If you’re at the top of Gloucester Road it’s a decent choice. Would def go back again.

One of many dotted around Bristol and equally as awesome as all the others. This BTP has loads of room out the back for groups (especially popular with crews of buggy wielding patents) and a few cosy booths. All the usual array of cakes and baked goods are available as well as teas, coffees and hearty food. Orders at the bar are bought to table and service is swift and friendly. All in all, a great place to go. (Top tip: Great place to chill out if you're using the Clean Bean Laudrette which is just about opposite!)

  • Rob Stroud

Had a lovely autumnal lunch at Boston Tea Party. Had the Mac and Cheese and a side of fries with a smoothie and it was really delicious and filling. We were seated quickly and the service was very friendly - they warned there was a little wait for food (it was a busy Friday lunchtime) but it actually wasn’t long at all. The place was buzzing with a real mix of different customers. Topped it off with a coffee and carrot cake which was really fresh!

  • Amelia

A classic spot. Prices are a little high but the economy going mad it is only fair. The food and tea is always wonderful and the staff are helpful and kind. Super accommodating for allergies and problems. There are also plenty of vegan options and its a great place to take kids for a quick sit down.

Went here for brunch with my partner. Very warm welcome by the staff, atmosphere was lovely, quick online ordering system and food only took 10 mins even though it was busy. As you can see portions were perfect and tasty, highly recommend would definitely come again (if you like coffee order the latte) one of the best I've had.

Good selection, good service, maybe a bit on the expensive side, but has a sunny terrace. Huge indoor area which is usually a mix of mums with kids, and remote workers looking at laptops. Good mince pie and white wine, the veggie breakfast muffin was good but could have been bigger.

  • Andrew Hannington

Really pleased with our visit here. Coffee was excellent, cakes delicious, and pancakes fantastic. As an allergy sufferer, the staff were very helpful, understanding, and suitably cautious - even making note next to my coffee (presumably because of non-dairy milks). Overall really good, and would definitely recommend!

  • Courtenay Trass

The drinks were bad - my partner had little black particles floating in his from the melting ice. Mine tasted grainy and bitter. Service was craaaazy slow. 30 minutes from ordering to getting our food (and it was just chips and a toasted sandwich!). Extremely over priced for the quality and service. More

  • Alex Packer

Went here with my friends and we all had great food. The attention to detail is very good (they brought out a timer for how long to brew my tea) and the menu is bored for a café, but not overwhelming. Shout out to the lovely staff too, who were pleasant and helpful despite being very busy.

  • Ben Slater

We stopped here for brunch, and the three of us & toddler had a great time. Nice relaxed family friendly vibes with lots of space for the littleuns to explore with fun play area. Food was tasty, smoothy though was a little bland & watered down though - but overall would recommend :)

  • danguee1

Nice coffee shop, nice coffee, nice enough staff. But PLEASE don't contaminate the hollandaise on the eggs benedict with cress and sliced radish! Looks cute but taste and texture all wrong...

  • David Wohlgemuth

I love Boston Tea Party usually but a little disappointed by the service we got this morning. I had to ask for cutlery for my breakfast, the server didn't check to see if I had any, also drinks were spilt on the table by the servers as they

Their disabled loos had a sign informing people and staff not to shorten or otherwise interfere with the red emergency call cord. The entire disabled bathroom was accessible although visually extremely unappealing.

  • Paul W

Fantastic BTP with excellent selection of food and drink. Friendly staff serve to tables and are quick to correct any issues. I recommend their west country breakfast.

  • Gemma

Very friendly and polite. Clean and tidy and great coffee and pastries. Child friendly and plenty of seating inside and outside. Great for any time of the day …

  • Stephen O'Brien

It would be nice if I didn’t have to see a member of staff rolling a roll-up in the middle of the kitchen during service while wearing visibly dirty clothes. More

  • Roxanne Downie

Food delicious as always, coffee lovely too. Staff very friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere and very dog friendly. We will definitely visit again, thanks

  • A Lee

Nice place for coffee and food. Good for big parties and families too. Nice food slightly pricey given the portion. Only tables and floor are bit sticky.

  • Richard Taylor

Great choice of dishes from the huge menu and the veggie breakfast was excellent. Fast service too
