Bristol: Day 1 - The Pump House

Hello My Lovelies, 

Oh I have been a busy bee... looking for flats, going to a few events and preparing for the new job. But I managed to get away this weekend for some R and R. I took a trip to Bristol for a nice weekend away with Elliot. It was such a lovely trip, Bristol is a amazing and beautiful place and I would definitely go again. 

For the first night, we went to a lovely pub/restaurant. I wore this outfit which I thought was nice and simple. I love the top with the pretty netted details at the bottom and goes very well with the high-waist disco pants.

We went to The Pump House which was a nice, chilled out restaurant and pub. The atmosphere was brilliant, especially with the unique and cozy decor. The wine menu, which was made out of corks, was pretty cool. There was lots of interesting posters on the wall down in the pub and there was always something unusual you can spot.

The restaurant served European food, it was pretty good. The portions were small, so wasn't very filling, which is why we went for this very nicely presented dessert. The quality was amazing and the service was friendly.

After we ate, we went down into the pub area and just chilled out on the couch, which gave the place a real "feel at home" atmosphere.

Meat Liquor

Hey My Lovelies,

Sorry if it's seems like I've been MIA, I usually blog 2-3 times a week, but have only managed to blog once. Shame on me! But I've been having a really fantastic week, I'm back on top of house hunting, I've bought myself a new camera so been trying out a few new camera tricks and I've been offered a new job, which I start end of April! So to celebrate, me and Elliot went out for a bite to eat. We went to a place in London called Meat Liquor, which was recommended by my friend Sandy. I abolustely loved this place, its my new favourite place to eat.
 

 

It was very different to your normal burger joint. I should say that if you don't like sitting in the dark with taboo images all around you and loud music, this is probably not your scene. I loved the decor, with its extreme revoluntionary, dark and alternative themes, it made it more fun and exciting to eat a burger! The music was loud and intense, but it was still possible to carry a conversation.

 

 

The food was sooo good! It looks like grubby backstreet food as they bring it out to you on a tray, but the taste is absolute quality. I ordered the "Dirty Chicken Burger" with fries and Elliot had a cheeseburger with cheesy fries. Sorry about the photo by the way, I had trouble with my camera so had to take some photos with my phone.

 

They do a wide range of cocktails, which have unusual names, such as "The Zombie" and come in cool jars. For dessert we order the Peanut Butter Sundae, which was crazy delicious.

 

The service was amazing. We were told we would have to wait 20 minutes and that we are welcome to sit by the bar and wait. As soon as we got to the bar, we were already being summonded over to our table. The waiter was very friendly and quite a funny guy, which was nice.

If you've been to Meat Liquor, then let me know what you think of it. Or if you know of any better

or your favourite burger place.

 

Have a good weekend peeps x
