Giraffe offers a colourful and vibrant atmosphere with a menu to suit any taste.

The Venue
Giraffe is located in the middle of the new shopping centre Cabot Circus on the upper floor. As it is located in the shopping centre it is a great place for lunch and with the cinema there too it is perfect to combine dinner and a movie. Although the centre is undercover it is light and airy and some tables are located outside the restaurant.

The People
This has a lively, bright and vibrant atmosphere and certainly at lunchtime is always busy. Clientele in the day time are often shoppers of a range of ages but in the evenings you can expect to see families and groups of friends.

Staff are efficient and friendly. The decor is very bright with almost luminous colours and there is a very contemporary feel in Giraffe.
