Starbucks at Temple Quay is where we have our pre-meet.
Located just around the corner from Bristol Temple Meads railway station, it’s a convenient spot for any out-of-towners to grab a drink and a seat before heading onward to our main venue together.
It also provides a quieter and more relaxed experience for anyone who prefers to get to know people ahead of time.
Please note: This is not the same Starbucks as the one inside of Temple Meads railway station.
Accessibility
Mobility
We usually meet in the upstairs section of this Starbucks, but unfortunately, it is not wheelchair accessible. If you use a wheelchair and intend to come, please inform us in advance, and we’ll do our best to meet you downstairs.
The doors of this Starbucks have a split design, which may pose difficulties for wheelchair users. There is a call button on the outside of the door for those who need assistance.
Toilets
Single-occupancy non-gendered toilets are located at the rear of the upper floor.
A wheelchair accessible toilet is available on the ground floor. It doesn’t require a RADAR key.
