News, events and schools' information for families across Bristol

To celebrate its 5th birthday anniversary in style, the Keynsham-based, Italian-inspired pizzeria and bistro, B Block, is throwing two parties and offering a discounted prosecco and pizza deal on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th October.

The £5 for a glass of prosecco and £5 for a whole pizza deal celebrates the restaurant’s 5th year of business and will run alongside two events across its birthday weekend – a Viva Italia evening on Friday 7th October and a free-to-attend family fun day on Saturday 8th October.

B-Block 5th Viva Italia party – Friday 7th October (5 pm – 8 pm) 

Featuring traditional Italian recipes alongside its immensely popular wood-fired pizzas, B Block will be hosting an Italian-style party on Friday evening from 5 pm onwards. Diners can travel to Italy without leaving Keynsham, or breaking the bank, with a glass of prosecco for £5 and a wood-fired Margherita pizza for £5. The Bristol Accordionist will be serenading diners from 5:30-8 pm, with a selection of famous and well-loved Italian classics perfect for the occasion; from O Sole Mio, La Mattinata, to everyone’s favourite ‘That’s Amore’.

B-Block 5th Family Fun day – Saturday 8th October (10:30 am – 5 pm) 

On Saturday, B-Block will be inviting families to celebrate by hosting a free family-fun birthday bash with biscuit decorating from B Block’s expert chefs – headed up by Food Development Manager, Adrian Kirikmaa. Party-goers should also expect face painters and circus workshops throughout the day to keep the fun going until 5 pm.

Neighbouring restaurant, Somer Dining, will be transformed for families for the day with a children’s party to keep the kids (and big kids!) happy until dinner time. B Block will also be showing the Disney movie, Luca, throughout the day in The Chocolate Quarter’s luxury Charlton Cinema. Set in Italy, Luca tells the story of a young sea monster boy with the ability to assume human form while on land. 

Popular with residents and visitors alike, B Block transforms from a coffee spot serving breakfast and stone-fired pizzas by day to an intimate Italian restaurant by night. Over five years, it has earned a reputation for its excellent standard of food, winning several awards. 

B Block is located in the Chocolate Quarter, a £60 million redevelopment of Keynsham’s former chocolate factory site by St Monica Trust. B Block is located within an eight-minute walk of Keynsham High Street. There is a bus stop located outside of B Block and a train station within a five-minute walk of The Chocolate Quarter. 

Open Monday-Thursday 8 am-4 pm, Friday 8 am-8 pm, Saturday 9 am-8 pm and Sunday 9 am-11:30 am, guests can book via social media or by phoning the restaurant on 0117 363 7119.
