Moored in Bristol’s historic harbour, Grain Barge is a relaxed spot for enjoying delicious food made from locally-sourced seasonal ingredients, with our extensive range of craft beers, local ciders and wines.
We serve delicious, honest food that celebrates the best seasonal produce from local farms and suppliers.We are proud members of the Sustainable Restaurant Association, a community of businesses working towards an environmentally restorative and socially progressive UK hospitality sector.
We serve a veg focused and seafood menu, all made onboard using locally sourced ingredients from our farm in Backwell, and other suppliers from the region.
For our fish, we choose MSC certified suppliers and species. When buying farmed fish we choose organic. We use the Good Fish Guide to guide us on best sourcing methods, along with advice from the Marine Conservation Society. All of our eggs are organic and free range, from Haresfield Farm in Wiltshire. Our milk and cream is from Bruton Dairy in the Cotswolds.
Enjoy a range of craft beers, lagers and ciders from some of the UK’s most exciting independent breweries. Our selection of cask and keg ales includes award-winning beers from Bristol Beer Factory plus a carefully curated roster of guest tipples, including IPAs and wheat beers.
Discover our freshly-ground coffees, wines, spirits and soft drinks, including a selection of organic and fair-trade options.
