Absolutely delicious! Well deserved reference in Michelin guide.

Amazing food and service. It was incredibly rainy and cold on the day we visited but the staff ensured that we had heaters and a patio heater to ensure we were comfortable. Food was incredible and would definitely return!!!!! The wine selection was exceptional and we had a lovely meal.

Delicious place to eat for a romantic date or with friends (not recommended with small children) in my opinion.I liked their fish options. Nicely cooked and full of flavours!

We tried the surprise tasting menu and it was good, if unmemorable. Every dish was carefully prepared, with balanced flavours and textures, from a velvety celeriac soup with a scallop sliver and curry aroma to start, to a delightfully wobbly and almost creamy (as it should be) pannacotta to end, through a beetroot and spelt risotto, a smoked trout with hispi cabbage, a duck with lentils and a cod with butter beans. Nothing stood out however, with dishes lacking a bit of oomph and personality and flavours tending to mutedIf in terms of food this was a solid 4 out of 5, what rather destroyed the day for us was the room: with below zero outside, a metal box with no proper heating, gusts of icy air continuously coming in from the opening of the door (for the outside service), a poorly functioning dimplex just spreading the cold air against us, was no fun. In fact, we realised we would have better off on the terrace, with the heating lamps beside diners, than at our table inside right in front of the door. We were unlucky, as I guess that on most other days of the year it's tolerable, but I'm reporting our experience.Prices are fair, service was friendly but not very caring. They could clearly see we were cold, yet they kept leaving the door open.

Absolutely brilliant meal, technically accomplished with no dip in quality all the way through the tasting courses. It came with a better wine pairing than I’ve had at certain 2 star Michelin restaurants. My preference to not have a sweet wine was met easily.Would return in a heartbeat. It was cold out on the balcony, but the food arrived hot, the heaters were on full blast and the wine certainly helped. The staff are friendly and relaxed.

Amazing food, creative tasting menu, wine and mocktails were excellent, very reasonable and loved being able to see the great chefs at work!

What a great restaurant. Although it is very small and quirky, the experience was terrific. The staff were great, the food was well cooked and there was plenty of choice of wine by the glass. I'd go again if I was back in Bristol

As far as food goes this is one of the best experiences I've ever had. The food was incredible. The service was heartfelt and passionate which really added to the experience. I cannot recommend BOX-E highly enough. We are real foodies and this blew me away. Thank you BOX-E.

very impressed by the food, really creative receipts and tasty. Even the truffe butter with bread is so good. Love the fish and pannacotta. Absolutely will go try the special 5 courses.
