The Gallimaufry

I’ve been to Galli a bunch of times and is still my favourite pub on G Road. Always a great atmosphere of good people and staff with a decent selection of beer, albeit a bit over priced. We went specifically to try the burgers here and they were pretty well executed. Amongst tough competition in Bristol they really held their own however I do think again the price point was a little high. Alongside, the tater tots were unforgettable and are something I’d come back specifically for.

Tucked into The Gallimafury, Fat Dad’s Kitchen is all about proper smash burgers — messy, smoky, and full of flavour without going over the top. We both went for The Schmokie — two dry-aged beef smash patties stacked with smoked streaky bacon, double applewood smoked cheese, crispy onions, dill pickles, and smoked bacon & chilli mayo The Parmesan tater tots with black garlic mayo deserve their own spotlight too. Why have I never had black garlic mayo before

Burgers were so good! Dirty Fries were so good... You might want to share as portion was BIG! Friendly, quick service. Great atmosphere. FULLY recommend!!

We came here on a Sunday afternoon for a roast after hearing a good recommendation from my friend who lives locally. The inside was colourful with a unique decor. The staff were friendly and welcoming. My only complaint was that we ordered and it took a lengthy time for the food to arrive. However, the food was worth the wait as the generous portions were all delicious and cooked beautifully. The roast beef was one of the best I've ever had!

Great wee pub, live music was spot on when we were there, yesterday's girl the band was called, have been in previously and always worth the visit

INSANE burgers. Been wanting to come here for a few months now and it did not disappoint. Amazing flavours and size for the money. Bun was delicious. Couldn’t fault a single thing. Even catered for my dairy free girlfriend! Awesome cheers guys.

Came here as it listed as one of the 11 best roast dinners in Bristol according to the Best of Bristol list and I have to say everything except the beef was amazing. I like my roast beef a bit pink but this was pretty much rare which was hard to cut and chew. The cauliflower cheese was amazing and all the veg, needed more potatoes though ! Quirky decor like everything I've been in that area and very friendly staff. Marking down one star because of the beef and it is very pricey but definitely worth a try.

I came here with the family. Excellent food, great pints but what really stood out was the service. If only more stars were an option. A bubbly, energetic and handsome young man named Felix waited on our table. He had my mum cracking up laughing which I hadn’t seen her do since the divorce. Will definitely be back here again!

Been here twice now for drinks, food and music. It's such a great bar. The menu is really mixed with great veggie and vegan options. Some of the best food I've had in Bristol! And they generally have amazing choice of love music on.

Wow! This place does fabulous tapas. It's not really tapas but more like a selection of modern European tasting menu items. Each dish came presented as if it were a miniature main course. I apologise for my unflattering flash photos! There were four of us and we each ordered one of each a vegetarian, fish and meat dish. This is definitely a place to bring friends to sample all the dishes! All the food was perfectly cooked and came out when each dish was ready (like tapas). The fish dishes were particularly good! The mushrooms with tomato, parsley and garlic, lamb breast and the inflect steak came out top! My only complaint is that they weren't piping hot. The restaurant is nestled on a mezzanine level above the bar so it didn't get a little bit noisy but there was a great atmosphere. I would suggest booking early!

Gallimaufry means: a confused jumble or medley of things. And that's exactly what you'll find here, but in a good way! The Gallimaufry is one of the better places to eat and drink on Gloucester Road. During the day you'll find a lovely brunch menu with sandwiches, soups and few eggy dishes. But the best thing on the menu is the 'Galli hangover cure': mackerel, chorizo, potato, peppers, bread & baked egg - which does exactly what it says on the tin! What I love about 'The Galli' is the quirky decor. Without it wouldn't live up to it's name, but they've done it really well. Behind the bar they have some REALLY odd clocks made from old baby dolls! They're quite scary, but pretty cool! During the evening, particular in the summer, the outside seating on the promenade is an awesome place to be. Lots of people, a really good buzz and nice seating to be able to watch the world go by. I love it! The Galli has a lot of competition, but they do well, and it's easy to see why - It's great!

Great for a beer and even better for the music! Sit inside or out on a Thursday night and be blown away by the epic jazz skills of James Morton. There's heat lamps for the winter, ample space inside and out - yes it gets busy but that's all part of the atmosphere!! Definitely give it a go, even if you're more Clifton it really doesn't matter. Just don't turn up in a suit...

A very good Sunday roast, good beer and lager and specialty the attention of the waiters is marvelous. I will come back

Delicious food, very good service in a very relaxed environment. We had the three Galli plates for £12, including rainbow chard, polenta, yoghurt & avocado plate, the heritage carrot, feta, honey & oats plate and the pork belly, celeriac, apple & sage plate. The best plate we had was the parmesan gnocchi, violet artichokes & wild garlic. Definitely be back!
