Don Giovanni's

Dining

Bristolians love their food and have access to the best produce the West Country can provide. Good meals abound, whatever your budget or dietary preference. There’s American inspired BBQ joints, Japanese noodle shops, French fine dining and Caribbean soul food. As host each year to one of Europe’s biggest vegan and vegetarian festivals – VegFest – Bristol is also a rewarding place to go meat-free. And if you really want to make an occasion of mealtimes, try one of the city’s superb Michelin-starred restaurants such as Casamia and The Pony & Trap.
