Bristol Lola Lo

You'll either love or hate the full-on tiki experience waiting for you in this Clifton basement. Bamboo walls, fake palm trees, and enough tropical paraphernalia to stock a holiday resort create an escapist bubble that's admittedly ridiculous but undeniably fun after a few mai tais. The cocktail menu leans heavily into rum-based concoctions served in oversized glasses with tiny umbrellas – exactly what you'd expect. Music skews towards chart hits and party classics, making it popular with the student crowd and anyone wanting to dance without taking themselves too seriously. It's not sophisticated, but sometimes that's exactly the point.
