If you stumbled on this webpage, we assume you’re not looking for The Library (Bristol’s cocktail bar behind a bookcase) or the Library of Things (which lets you borrow everything from DIY tools to camping gear). No, what you’re after is a library-library; an education centre, a community hub, and even a lifeline to many. That’s why you should know about the best libraries in Bristol—all of which are free to use with a library card! How do I get a library card in Bristol?

If you haven’t been lucky enough to visit Naples and try the pizza (some of the world’s best pizza, I should say), then don’t worry. You don’t have long to wait for authentic Neapolitan pizza to come to you. Rudy’s Pizza Napoletana has confirmed it will open in Bristol this summer—transforming the former Royal Bank of Scotland branch on Baldwin Street. Since it launched 10 years ago in Manchester, Rudy’s has quickly gained a cult following for its authentic Neapolitan pizzas.

Tove Jansson’s Moomins are among the most recognisable cartoon characters in the world. Appearing in books, comic strips, TV shows and movies, as well as on countless memorabilia, since their creation in 1945, they’re still beloved by many children (and many adults) today. That’s why we’re certain you’re as excited as I am by the match-up between Bristol’s cult-favourite boba tea house and the timeless charm of the Moomins.
