What the experts agree on

Community-run Bristol spot where cheap eats meet free live music almost nightly. Local beers, veggie-friendly fare, and that scrappy alternative vibe that defines Stokes Croft.

"The Canteen’s bar is stocked with local brews. Try Wiper and True’s margarita gose or a cloudy Iford cider. There’s also free live music almost every night."
