When it comes to lazy weekend brunches, Bristol has it all. From comfort food favourites to feel-good vegan feasts, you’ll find it all in our roundup of the city’s best healthy brunch spots.
Tradewind Espresso
Why we love it: “If we can make it from scratch, we will” is the motto of Tradewind Espresso. From homemade nut milk to artisan sourdough, everything is fresh, seasonal, and sourced as close to home as possible. The Buddha Bowl is amazingly good. Packed with ancient grains, roasted squash, greens and tahini dressing, it makes for a real feel-good brunch.
Best for: An all-day breakfast menu means Tradewind is just the spot for late-risers and brunch-for-lunch fans.
118 Whiteladies Road, Bristol, BS8 2RP
Spoke and Stringer
Why we love it: This cafe-cum-surf shop brings Australian vibes to our favourite brunch classics. In place of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, you’ll get beetroot-cured salmon gravlax, thyme scrambled eggs and samphire. And if you fancy a veggie fry up, expect it to come with rainbow chard and homemade smoky beans.
Best for: Sunny weekends. The beachy vibes, outdoor seating, and vibrant food come together to create the perfect summer brunch experience.

Souk Kitchen
Why we love it: Move over bacon. At Souk Kitchen you can get a Greek marinated Pork T-bone with a delicious tabbouleh salad, all before 11am. The rest of the menu features plenty of healthy brunch staples, all with a Middle Eastern and North African twist.
Best for: Those looking to expand their brunch horizons. The guys at Souk Kitchen are experts in bringing together bold dishes and local ingredients in a really memorable way.
59 Apsley Road, Clifton, Bristol, BS8 2SW
277 North Street, Southville, Bristol, BS3 1JP
Cafe Kino
Why we love it: Cafe Kino isn’t just a lovely brunch spot – it’s a community space and non-profit cooperative too. The breakfast menu is simple, but 100% vegan and full of local and organic ingredients. Try the Full Kino for a classic Full English with all the trimmings.
Best for: Brunch with friends. This spacious community meeting place is perfect for a good catch-up over a hearty breakfast.
108 Stokes Croft, Bristol, BS1 3RU
St Werburghs City Farm Cafe
Why we love it: St Werburghs City Farm Cafe takes farm-to-table to the next level. All the meat, vegetables and salad and wild ingredients are sourced from the farm itself, making for a sustainable and scrumptious weekend breakfast.
Best for: Family brunches. Tuck into a hearty, healthy breakfast then let the kids get stuck into the daily activities taking place at the city farm.
