More about Stokes Croft

Bristol, England

Stokes Croft sits right in the heart of Bristol and has a bit of an edge that makes it easy to find things worth doing without hunting for them. The area is packed with independent shops and cafes that keep the local spirit alive long after the weekend rush has died down. You can catch a film at the Picturehouse or grab a bite at one of the many pubs before heading home. It's a place where you don't need to scroll through endless lists because the good stuff is usually just around the corner on a quiet street.
