Lonely Mouth
About
They point out how the matcha is divine, often described as 'AMAZING food,' and a real treat for those seeking authentic Japanese cuisine. However, some guests find that certain drinks, like the matcha latte, can be too weak and taste just like milk. While the French toast and banoffi matcha are well-liked, others report a tastelessness in their beverages. Prices range from £4 for a matcha latte to £7.20 for a matcha late, with some finding it pricey but still worth it due to the quality of ingredients used. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, especially after hours when the cafe transitions into a lively bar setting. Service is generally fast and polite, though delays in service can occur during peak times. Lonely Mouth stands out as Bristol’s first Japanese Listening Cafe, offering traditional Teishoku with an immersive experience that has become a beloved local spot.
