Acclaimed restaurant to be pop-up at Balloon Fiesta

By Martin Booth  Tuesday Apr 23, 2024

Since opening on Portwall Lane in 2018, Pasture have become one of Bristol’s most acclaimed restaurant groups.

Soon to open their biggest restaurant yet in Birmingham and a new more casual burger bar in Bristol, the team are now also planning for a pop-up at this summer’s Balloon Fiesta.

The Ballon Fiesta location at Ashton Court is fitting as Pasture have a farm in Long Ashton where the restaurants’ vegetables and herbs are grown.

The pop-up restaurant will feature an Argentine grill, a clay oven and a fire pit, and will serve breakfast, lunch, dinner and a special night glow menu.

“This means so much to me,” said Pasture founder Sam Elliott.

“We are really proud to be representing Pasture at the Balloon Fiesta this year.”

Balloon Fiesta director of operations, Ben Hardy, called the new link-up with Pasture a “great new partnership” as he and the other festival bosses aim to rediscover some of the event’s strong Bristol links.

From breakfast service beginning at 5.45am, Pasture’s restaurant will be situated on the edge of the main arena throughout the Fiesta weekend from August 9 to 11.
