About

The Strawberry Thief is a multi-award-winning beer bar in Bristol's old city, inspired by continental style cafe bars. They offer over sixty renowned Belgian and UK craft beers, alongside small orchard ciders, fine wines, and premium spirits. With relaxed friendly table service, it's a perfect spot to unwind.

Their menu is inspired by European cuisine with a modern Bristol twist. Enjoy lovingly crafted seasonal dishes, all served with comfort and care at your table.

Located on Broad Street, once a printmaking hub, the bar’s decor is inspired by this creative heritage. The name comes from the William Morris print displayed in the bar, originally made across the street at the Edward Everard Building, now the Clayton Hotel Bristol.

Whether you’re shopping, unwinding after work, dining pre-theatre, catching up with friends, or celebrating, The Strawberry Thief team is ready to welcome you!
