Restaurant review: Townhouse, Bristol.

Yesterday was my second visit to Townhouse on the Whiteladies Road. Once again the standard of food served was so high that I felt it was now necessary to write a review on it.

Yesterday we went to Townhouse for brunch to celebrate a friends birthday. We had already looked at the menu online which looked amazing, however we were disappointed to find that half the online menu was not on the restaurant menu. Never-the-less, when we ordered out food this proved not to be an issue at all- everything was incredible. I went for a muffin with 2 poached eggs, large roasted field mushrooms and roasted tomato. Everything was cooked to perfection and it tasted delicious.

Dishes other friends had included Eggs Royale, Sausage Sandwich, Eggs Benedict and Fried egg with bacon and toast. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and really went out of their way to make us feel welcome without being intrusive.

My visit to Townhouse prior to this one had also been equally as incredible. I went for one of my housemates birthdays along with his parents and a few other friends. We got there for 6:45 so we could make the 3 courses for £10 deal that Townhouse have on every weekday evening before 7pm.
Normally with these sorts of deals they often want you to have eaten and left the restaurant by 7pm, and the portion sizes tend to be small. Neither of these issues were the case at Townhouse. The menu was very extensive with good sized portions, and we were able to stay for as long as we wanted.
I ordered scallops in a creamy sauce with bacon to start, moules-frites for main, followed by a delicious apple and blackberry crumble to complete it off (not to mention the birthday cake that followed that.) It is fair to say by the end of the night I was VERY full.

All in all I have been thoroughly impressed by both my visits to Townhouse recently. Not only has the food been delicious and great value for money, but also the staff have been very friendly which really makes such a difference. I will be back!
