Bristol

In the center, St. Nicholas Market has many small eateries that are excellent for sightseeing. For a more established fine dining experience, head to the central canal around Watershed.
Some of the neighborhoods have nice cafes and pubs. In St. Werburgh’s, this includes Byblos (Middle Eastern) and St. Werburghs City Farm Café. In Easton, this consists of the Thali Café Easton (Indian), No 12 Easton, Maitreya Social (vegetarian), and the very cheap community-run café in Saint Mark’s Baptist Church.

Bristol is a small city, and all of the central sights are easily walkable. Outside the center, buses and taxis are the most reliable.
The neighborhoods of Lawrence Hill and Stapleton have a train service to the center (around $2).
Buses to/from the airport are frequent and cost slightly less than $10.
Bristol has good connections with other English and Welsh cities, both by bus and by train. Buses are significantly cheaper than trains, but much slower.

Street Art: Bristol is home to Banksy, and there is plenty of great street art around Bristol. There is not one area in which street art is concentrated, but some of the best views can be near Stapleton Road, St. Werburgh’s, and Cheltenham Road (all towards the northern end of the city).
St Nicholas Market: a great shopping location with many independent shops.
Brunel’s SS Great Britain: an exhibit of a great steamship designed by the famous engineer Brunel.
M. Shed: The dock area also houses this museum with exhibits on the history of Bristol.
Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery: a wide variety of galleries available.
Clifton Suspension Bridge: a grand bridge across the river Avon from 1864, it stands impressively across the Avon Gorge. Buses do not stop nearby, so expect to walk at least 10 minutes to get to the bridge or a good viewpoint.
