  • Culture

    In recent years Bedminster has created a name for itself as a hub of creativity for artists, developing its own distinctive character. It is hard to walk far without spying the conspicuous works of art by talented local street artists, including the world-famous Banksy. The Upfest Gallery on North Street is Bristol’s longest running urban art gallery and most years it hosts UPFEST, Europe’s largest street art festival.

  • Connectivity

    For destinations that can’t be reached on foot or by bike, there is an excellent network of bus routes across the city. Regular train services run to both London and Exeter from nearby Bristol Temple Meads Station. Bedminster Station offers services to Cardiff, Exeter and Taunton, while a local service between Bristol Parkway and Weston-Super-Mare calls at Bedminster every hour during the week.

  • Cafes & Bars

    There is no shortage of places to eat, shop and hang out in Bedminster. A thriving nightlife scene is supported by numerous restaurants, bars and cafés, from international groups to independent start-ups. The local restaurants serve a wide range of cuisine to indulge in.

  • Convenience

    A short walk away is North Street with its collection of independent shops and eateries. East Street itself offers an assortment of shops perfect for all your grocery needs. Close by is the summer hotspot of Victoria Park, whilst Bedminster Station is just around the corner.
