subject: Top 5 Dating Tips For Dating In Bristol [print this page] A brilliant place for dating, Bristol has a strong creative energy and a maritime history which colours all aspects of its design and culture. The main city of the West Country, Bristol is the fourth favourite visitor destination in England, and is packed with fun places to visit when you're out and about with your date. Here are a few examples of the best things to see and do when dating in Bristol.
Start The Bus
On Corn Street there are a number of chain bars like Walkabout and All Bar One, but for those looking for a more unique Bristol dating experience, Start The Bus at the bottom of Corn Street will make a good choice. This live music and DJ venue has a creatively styled interior and shows alternative music. It's the perfect place for evening dating in Bristol, with comfy seats you can settle down in together. Start The Bus is a refreshing dating venue if you're fed up of chain pubs but would like a chat and a drink while you get to know your date.
Cheddar Caves
If you want to show your dating partner something a bit different, make the journey from Bristol to Cheddar Gorge, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, to see the beautiful limestone caves carved into the hills. You the can walk with your dating partner through the labyrinthine chambers, where Britain's oldest complete human skeleton, the 9,000 year old Cheddar Man, was found in 1903. If you would rather stay out in the fresh air (caving is not for everyone), there are amazing views of the ravine from footpaths along the cliff tops, and you can watch traditional cheddar cheese being made at the Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company.
St Nicholas Market
For a more relaxed time dating in Bristol, a stroll and a nose around in St Nicholas Market can be a fun way to while away an afternoon and get to know your dating partner. Located in the centre of Bristol, you'll find stalls selling fresh food, CDs, books and jewellery, as well as a flea market on Fridays, and you can head to one of the bars on Corn Street for a drink afterwards if you want to.
Thali
A lovely little restaurant in Bristol, the One Stop Thali Cafe serves vegetarian Indian food with a different menu every day. This is a great option if you want to take your Bristol dating partner for dinner but you don't want to end the evening with a big bill, as the restaurant serves many courses at a good price. There is usually live music here and the place is always packed.
Severnshed
If you're happy to spend a little bit more on dinner (but still without breaking the bank), why not try this unique eatery in a former boathouse, which is sure to impress your date. Located on the banks of the city's floating harbour, it is walking distance from the centre of Bristol, and has a bar that moves using compressed air. Severnshed's six ton steel hover bar can actually glide across the building and rotate 360 degrees.
