Areas

Southville & Bedminster

Take a saunter south of the river to find Southville, Bedminster and Totterdown. Full of independent shops, restaurants, bars, markets, urban art and city farms this is a lively area popular with local Bristolians and city dwellers.

North Street is the centre of most of the activity and is perennially popular. Offering an enviable mix of independent shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and markets. The Tobacco Factory Theatres stage Shakespeare, opera, Christmas shows, comedy, puppetry and dance. The adjoining Cafe Bar meanwhile hosts a number of events and performances throughout the year whilst serving up a fine selection of good food and Bristol Beer Factory brews. Fiddlers is one of Bristol's most iconic live music venues and celebrates its 25th birthday in Seotember 2019.

The area is a haven for shoppers and foodies who regularly flock to the strip for stores like the Southville Deli, which sells fair trade, organic and wholefoods, as well as the Sunday morning market at the Tobacco Factory.

There are green spaces too that where you can get close to nature including Windmill Hill City Farm in Bedminster, a voluntary community project that runs social, environmental and educational activities and seasonal events.

For sports fans, Ashton Gate Stadium is the home of Bristol City FC and Bristol Rugby.

From Temple Meads station, you can see the famous multi-coloured houses lining the hills of Totterdown. There are plenty of friendly pubs and cafes throughout the area, and Victoria Park offers incredible views over the city and the south suburbs of Bristol.

The area is a popular spot to enjoy a relaxing drink and some great food with some great options. The Old Bookshop on North Street is famed for its distinctive mural and serves up a delicious selection of small plates alongside regular gigs by local talents. Head to Souk Kitchen for Lebanese cuisine or the popular Mark's Bread for seriously good baked treats. For brilliant breakfasts try the Lounge or Cafe Grounded or for pre-theatre dining, head to the Tobacco Factory.
