Caper and Cure is an independent restaurant and bar on the corner of Stokes Croft and Montpelier, Bristol. We strive to deliver delicious food from our seasonally changing menu and offer the best local and organic ingredients we can get our hands on. Our drinks list has been carefully selected to offer a wide range of beverages from local suppliers, which you can enjoy in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.

We’re extremely proud to feature in The Good Food Guide as one of Britain’s 100 Best Local Restaurants, 2023.

108 Stokes Croft, ‘Tucketts Buildings’, started life as a grocery and provisions store in the 1890’s, and the building was split up in the 1920’s and 108a became a ‘cash chemists’ where one could go for their ‘remedies and cures’ without prescription. Since then, the shop at 108a has been an electrical supplier, an internet café, and more recently a café and music venue. The basement has, apparently, always been host to shenanigans, japes and capers.

Caper:  1. a ridiculous escapade 2. a salted and pickled flower bud

Cure: 1. to make well and treat successfully 2. salt and preserve meat, fish and vegetables
