Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Good spot for brunch and a beer (cheaper than coffees in Bratislava). If you’re looking for something Slovak, don’t bother with this - however, if you are homesick and miss your English breakfast or smashed avocado on toast, I would highly recommend it.

Very modern and cozy place. Very busy, but fast service. Working ladies were kind and professional. They have Pilesner on tap for just 3.50 euros, and that beer is excellent.

First thing to say is the prices aren’t cheap (UK high end bistro prices) but the breakfast we had was 10/10. I had the full English style breakfast. The poached eggs were perfectly runny and the bacon not over cooked, just how I like it....The portion sizes are substantial so you won’t leave hungry. My friend had the pancakes, and he said they were possibly the best pancakes he’s ever had. Just be aware that Urban Bistro (along with many other establishments in Bratislava) do not let you split the bill. One person in your group will have to pay the whole tab. Not ideal if travelling in a group but that’s the way they do things here. Make sure you visit if you’re in Bratislava, you won’t regret it.More

The waitress was very rude, don’t think she was expecting a British woman to speak Slovak and she said ‘f****ng weirdos’ when I only ordered a plain gin with lemonade. They only had 4 things on the menu Disappointed

Kudos to the chef, I have ordered chicken burger the best I have ever ate! The waitress has recommended me a very nice wine which is why I gave her a tip. Unfortunately service let this bistro down. I had to call to get attention...from three staff whom were chatting at the beverage station happily ignoring me (until I shouted so hard it was impossible to ignore)to ask what has happened about the sauces I have ask for, after getting the burger&chips without any condiments (which I thought was odd)as I had my food on the table already, getting cold and the bistro was not busy at all. My friends tea was served with out a tea spoon and a saucer, just a cup and a pot. For this reason I am giving this experience one star. Unprofessional and inattentive staff, having to have to be loud because you are getting blatantly ignored by staff is really not hot.More

We had dinner and then sat here with a few drinks for hours just relaxing and listening to the music, it was such a great atmosphere. Relaxed, friendly, music good but not too loud to chat. The service was super friendly and efficient. The food...was really tasty but the menu was quite small so not a huge amount of choice. There were a couple of traditional dishes and a couple of easy burger-type options. All in all we’d recommend it for somewhere to sit and chill after a hard day sightseeing!More

We were pleased to find Urban Bistro in the hear of Bratislava's old town. It was the perfect option for breakfast on a Sunday morning. The menu is not huge but there are several nice options that we found to be the perfect size and...with great taste. The service was quick and attentive and we will definitely return next time we are in town.More

A popular cafe in a great location very close to Michalska Gate. Looks very clean and upscale with a trendy design and wonderful decoration inside. We visited for breakfast and the menu contains some decent breakfast options. We ordered the Sold Out pancakes (one of...the most popular dishes, if I can make a guess from the reviews), the croque madame toast, and 2 espresso coffees. The pancakes were indeed quite tasty (although for 11 euros I would expect a bigger portion) but the croque madame toast was OK but not something special. Coffees were OK and the service was quite good. Overall, it is undoubtedly a nice cafe, but given the prices and the whole ambiance, perhaps we expected something more. It is worth visiting though!More

Love the atmosphere here. Very clean, sort of upscale/trendy/classy cafe. Modern fixtures but the comfy feel of relaxing inside with comfy tables and food. Chicken salad and drinks were fantastic!
