Terrace Restaurant at Marriott Royal Hotel

Bristol is a bit of a proverbial curate's egg, it walks the line between appearing vaguely urbane and sometimes just a little bland. But, there are some fine shops; though not enough of them. There are some chic bars; perfectly decent for the first month of opening, but usually soon deteriorate and lose their initial bloom.
