Discover more about Bill's Gloucester Quays Restaurant
A relaxed riverside stop in the heart of Gloucester Quays
Tucked into the bustling Gloucester Quays shopping and leisure complex, Bill’s offers a dependable, contemporary British dining experience with a friendly, casual vibe. The restaurant occupies a modern, light-filled space with large windows that look out over the quayside, blending clean lines with warm, rustic touches in the furnishings. Inside, the atmosphere is upbeat but not overwhelming, ideal for a relaxed meal after browsing the outlet stores or catching a film at the nearby cinema. Outside, a covered terrace provides a pleasant spot to eat in good weather, with views across the docks and passing boats adding a gentle sense of place.Seasonal British fare with something for everyone
Bill’s menu focuses on fresh, seasonal British and European-inspired dishes, changing regularly to reflect what’s in season. Breakfast and brunch are strong suits, with big cooked breakfasts, pancakes (including bottomless options on certain days), and brunch burgers appealing to both early risers and late sleepers. Lunch and dinner options include burgers, steaks, fish and chips, duck curry, shepherd’s pie and vegetarian choices like aubergine Parmesan. There’s also a dedicated gluten-free menu and a separate dog menu, making it a genuinely inclusive spot for families and pet owners. The emphasis is on approachable, crowd-pleasing food rather than fine dining, served in generous portions.A practical pit stop with modern touches
The restaurant is designed for convenience as much as comfort. It’s easy to drop in without a reservation, though booking is recommended at weekends or during holiday periods. Service is generally attentive and efficient, with staff trained to handle everything from large family groups to solo diners. Payment is handled via QR code at the table, and a discretionary service charge is added to the bill, which can be adjusted on request. The space is fully accessible, with step-free access, accessible toilets and plenty of seating, making it suitable for strollers, wheelchairs and older visitors. High chairs are available, and the open layout means it’s easy to keep an eye on children while eating.When to visit and what to expect
Bill’s is busiest during peak shopping hours, lunchtime (12:00–14:30) and early evening (18:00–20:30), especially on weekends and during school holidays. Weekday mornings and mid-afternoons tend to be quieter, making them ideal for a more relaxed meal. The restaurant is open daily from early morning until late evening, so it works equally well for a full English breakfast, a midday sandwich, a proper dinner or a late-night drink and snack. Prices sit in the mid-range bracket, with set menus and seasonal offers helping to keep things good value, particularly for groups or families. While it’s not a destination restaurant in the fine-dining sense, it’s a reliable, comfortable choice for a satisfying meal in a pleasant riverside setting.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
