Turtle Bay - Bristol, City of

I wish I had read the reviews before coming. I came in to eat by myself. It was a few minutes before the servers acknowledged my presence and I told them it was my first trip to The UK. The server instructed me to sit between two large very loud parties even though there were multiple seats available. Didn 't ask if I would like to eat outside. I sat a table over to not be disrupted by the larger parties noise. I ordered a drink and asked for a straw. The waiter told me, We only give straws for drinks that need it. I don 't like lipstick on my glass which is why I use straws. I think that 's an incredibly rude way to welcome someone to your country and to your restaurant. The drinks were bland and the food was average. Will never go back.

I love TB been here quite a few times now. Mainly for the 2for1 cocktails, and eaten here a few times. I just love the whole experience, reminds me and being back in Barbados again. Same sort of food on the menu and the sauces bring back memories. Couldnt decide which cocktail as too many to choose from so the lady behind the bar started asking me what i liked and recommended one which i liked. We had a table booked as past experience they are hit and miss with having spaces on walk ins. I ended up having a jerk chicken wrap with salad and side of sweet pot fries which are my absolute fav! Recommend these and the sweetcorn fritters are yummers. We also shared a platter for starters which works between 3 people just beware the pepper roti is spicy! The bill came and very reasonable. Think the 2for1 cocktails helped as it felt like we had so many. You can see the chefs cooking too through open kitchen behind the bar. You can just go sit in the bar area for the drinks too, or the outdoor seating in the summer. If you dont like carribean food then just come for the drinks between 5-7 everyday is the 2for1 on any coktail, but the food is defo worth a go :

The best Caribbean jerk chicken I've ever had! The service was impeccable and the drink selection was interesting to say the least. Highly recommend!

Would visit TB again for a drink but not for food. It's badly cooked and nothing like Caribbean food should be. The cocktail menu is pretty good though with everything you'd expect and a few new drinks I'd never heard of. The staff in the central Bristol branch are super nice!

The food was really yum and the portion was much bigger than I was expecting. I liked that they offered a vegan chickpea jerk wrap (MASSIVE) and it still had fantastic flavour. The plantains are delightful and the jerk halloumi is really yum!
