Bristol Museum & Art Gallery

Highly recommended when you’re in Bristol! 💛 The exhibits and art pieces are amazing, the staff are super lovely and helpful, and there’s even a cozy café onsite ☕ Plus, they have an interactive area for kids — perfect for families too!

Free entry - though I gave £5 well Worth it. Great art collection for a gallery this size. Good variety from French Impressionism to 15th religious artworks. Nice and quiet. Good lighting and great descriptions to accompany the work.

So much to see and learn for free, highly recommend! You can spend hours here easily! My favourite section was the animals, just check out the photos.

The staff here were very helpful, and the art and exhibitions were interesting. There is a lot to see, and a lovely cafe and gift shop. We saw the gender exhibition, which I would highly recommend, there was an amazing array of art and artefacts, and the theme of the whole section is so important. Definitely worth a visit.

Definitely a 10/10 experience for me. The staff at the front desk was really helpful by mentioning what I’d find interesting on all the floors when I mentioned that it was my first time visiting the Bristol Museum. I was impressed by the artworks, silver and porcelain collection.

Beautiful art, plenty of fossils and beautiful history to look to. Their gender exhibition was lovely too. The only thing that was kind of surprising was the fact that the museum closes at 5PM. I know the staff works hard and they're knowledgeable but I wish it was open a bit later, especially on the weekend. I feel like if they had a ticket price on entry, they might compensate a few more people's time to provide knowledge to the curious folk past 5PM. I'LL DEFINITELY COME BACK THOUGH!!!

The gallery and museum offer a diverse collection appealing to a wide range of ages and preferences. While the building could benefit from some refurbishment, the overall experience is quite pleasant. Admission is complimentary.

When you enter the Bristol Museum, it’s like you’ve stepped into another dimension, with regard to time, science and species of organisms both old and modern. Science section is so beautiful, then the photo gallery section too was amazing. What baffles my mind was the guy who keeps on climbing onto the ladder, reaches above and then drops down, picks himself up and drops again in different locations on the ground. Students learning about rocks and its mineral components can learn a lot when the take a field trip there.
