Good vegan selection

I’ve been to Loaf many times and always leave happy with the high quality of vegan cakes and other treats. They have quite a few vegan treats on offer (cakes, cinnamon swirl, flapjack bite etc), some of which are unique, like the peanut butter and banana cake.

It’s a popular place so usually has a small queue for sitting in but the space is bright, airy and comfortable. Downside may be that it’s expensive, but is unsurprising given the location being in Bristol and the standard of the produce.

Service issues & disappointing customer experience

Customer service and food-handling standards matter.
After 18+ months as a regular customer, today’s visit to Bristol Loaf Bedminster showed poor communication, questionable food handling, and a dismissive interaction.
Apology came too late! This should’ve never happened. You just lost a loyal customer!

Pros: Great food

Cons: Couple of Moody disinterested bored members of sta, Food handling for vegetarian and non-vegetarian , Dismissive and defensive attitude from chef

Raspberry slice was amazing

Good few options to choose from. A little pricey but so is everywhere in Bristol.

A few vegan pastries!

Popped in to see if they had any vegan options and they did. Person who served me was nice but the other staff looked at me a bit funny, it wasn’t the friendliest place.

Good cake, pleasant service

I went to Loaf on an almost unbearably hot day, but despite this staff were pleasant and attentive.

I had an excellent vegan pizza and leaves, followed by their mocha and almond cake, which was exceptional. The house white wine was enjoyable too..

There were a good few vegan options and the space is light and airy. I'd certainly recommend and would visit again if in the area.

Love this place!

Had a smoked tofu pate baguette which was so unique and tasty I still think about it. Loads of sandwiches and cakes in the deli counter as well as a menu for the kitchen dishes.

Venue is awesome - bright and airy with windows that open fully in the summer. Really nice atmosphere. Would love to try more on the menu. Oat milk available for hot drinks.

Pros: Clearly labelled vegan options, Lots of vegan options , Wonderful location
