Our first EBCB guest review:
Various people have recommended the York Cafe in Bristol as worthy of a visit and my friend Chris was going through on his way to the Carling Cup Final, so I asked him to pay a visit. Here's his splendid contribution. Words and pictures by Chris Groom. (Only shame is; he managed to delete his exterior shot)
Situated in Clifton about a mile out of Bristol City Centre, York Café is a friendly spot for some EBCB. It¹s close to Bristol University and seems to get a mix of students and locals. The booths seat 6 so unless you¹re a small battalion of eaters be prepared to snuggle up with people you may not know. A generous portion of chips. Crisp and golden on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Nice. The highlight of the EBCB however was undoubtedly the egg. Cooked to perfection, the yolk was plump and sweet. The bacon tasty, the beans good, but as you can see by the beans to juice ratio they weren¹t Heinz.
Impressive extension on the sugar dispenser.
Other highlights include the red formica tables, the lime green laminated menu¹s, the spotted dick on the menu and a large fridge containing various items of chocolate confectionary and cans of coke just in case you get peckish on your way to wherever you¹re headed.
