Another excellent restaurant very close to home. We love Zazu's and, although it's often fully booked, you can always try The Grace a couple of doors down which is a pub but the food is by the same people.

Getting Around
This is the nearest bus stop and takes you into town or pretty much anywhere in Bristol really quickly.
If you don't fancy the walk, the bus is a great alternative...and you don't have to have a designated driver if you want to try some of the local pubs and restaurants.
