Behind the Headlines / EatDrink24/7

Are restaurants in Bristol too expensive?

By Betty Woolerton  Monday Jul 24, 2023

With rising costs at all stages of the supply chain, restaurants have recently been forced to increase prices at an unprecedented rate – but are they now at risk of alienating diners?

In this week’s podcast, we explore this question and hear from chef, restaurateur and owner of the Pony Chew Valley Josh Eggleton, Telegraph food columnist Xanthe Clay, co-owner of Bianchis Group Dominic Borel and Bristol24/7 Deputy Editor Ellie Pipe in a panel discussion that took place at the launch party of EatDrink24/7 – your independent guide to the city’s food and drink scene.

The talk was hosted by Florence Pardoe, founder and director of GOOD: Stories in Food walking tours.
