Get to know central Bristol's local businesses during the buildup to this year's festive season.

 

The Bristol Shopping Quarter have released an alphabetised guide to the city centre's independent businesses, making it easier than ever for Bristolians to shop locally this Autumn.

 

Covering popular shopping centres Cabot Circus, The Galleries and The Arcade as well as surrounding areas and other BS1 high streets, the new Indie Shopping Guide should be your first port of call if you're on the lookout for goods, services or some top-notch food and drinks.

 

Amid the ongoing coronavirus crisis, and the huge impact the lockdown had on business owners across Bristol and beyond, there's never been a better time to support local business wherever possible.

 

As we approach the festive period, we thoroughly recommend you familiarise yourself with this list and consider supporting Bristol business next time you spend a day at the shops.

 

 

Made up of over 100 independent businesses within the central Bristol Shopping Quarter, you'll find everything from barbers and beauty parlours to jewellers, travel agents, tailors and much more on the Indie Shopping Guide.

 

Specialist independent stores are something Bristol does very well, and whether you're after the perfect card for any occasion, sustainable vintage clothing or the latest vaping accessories, Cardshack, Sobey's and Superior Vapour have got you covered, all located within The Arcade.

 

If you're on the hunt for services, BS1 is home to class-leading tattoo artists, beauty salons, hairdressers, tech support, tailors, travel agents and more, all offering great deals and competitive prices year-round.

 

You might just be after a bite to eat halfway through your shopping trip, and there's plenty to choose from with an array of cafes, takeaways, restaurants and more operating in central Bristol.

 

Sample delicious, authentic Italian treats at Taste of Napoli, enjoy a hearty lunch from Eat a Pitta, or sit down with some vibrant Caribbean cuisine at Bikkle Island in The Galleries.

 

Bristol is famed for its independent spirit and focus on community, and as local businesses continue their recovery from an incredibly difficult trading period, be sure to show your support in the coming weeks and months.
