33 Best Bars near Bristol

“Gotta get those jalapeño poppers and a burger!!!!!! So so so good!“

“Since its transformation into Taylor’s on Toft, this bar has established itself as one of Antioch’s most polished and welcoming drinking destinations. The owner—often found behind the bar—sets the tone with a warm, personable presence that immediately makes guests feel at ease. Her cocktail craftsmanship is equally impressive: the Manhattan is exemplary, balanced and precise, while the martinis are consistently excellent, executed with confidence and restraint. The ambiance strikes an ideal note—refined yet relaxed—making it a natural choice for a pre-dinner aperitif or a lingering post-meal nightcap. During a recent visit, a live singing group added a festive touch, infusing the space with genuine Christmas cheer without overwhelming the intimate atmosphere. While we have not yet sampled the food, dishes arriving at neighboring tables are beautifully presented and look enticing, suggesting the bar program is thoughtfully complemented by the kitchen. Taylor’s on Toft is a standout in Antioch: a place defined by gracious hospitality, expertly made cocktails, and an atmosphere that invites return visits. Highly recommended.“

“Chicken strips were crunchy and juicy cooked to absolute perfection. I also ordered fries with cheese sauce and got an extra order for free with an order a wings . Was probably a mistake and I hope the other people that ordered them got theirs too because it’s freaking amazing. I could bath in this cheese sauce. If I had teeth I’d use it as tooth paste. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Awesome place to eat and drink. Outside tables on the sand overlooking the water. Great service by Kylie.“

“We stopped in to listen to L & M EXPERIENCE. Have never been to this place. The bartender la were fantastic and friendly. I was pleasantly surprised how affordable their drinks were. I had to ask her was she sure of the cost before I paid her.
We will be back. They have a great pool room and their slot machines are in a separate room set up very nicely. My husband ordered a. Diet coke and he pulled his money out and they said Pop is free. That was also surprising.“

“good place to go and the ppl are friendly and respectful, and yes very good food“

“Stayed there in Summer 2022. Very clean, and even though our room was near the bar we did not have trouble sleeping. Gorgeous sunrise views. We did not get the email with the code so could not check in at check in time, so we had to wait an hour or 2. Not a huge deal. The bigger deal was the neighbor with the F… Biden sign (in her front yard) coming onto the property making guests uncomfortable.“
