Dando's

On the bustling Stapleton Road stretch of Easton, Dando's is a classic Bristol BS5 takeaway turning out cheap, cheerful staples for the steady stream of locals passing through this corner of the city. The board covers the familiar fast-food line-up, with a meaty Chicken Doner Kebab sitting alongside burgers, fried chicken, wraps and chips, all handed over quickly for eating on the move or taking home.

It is an unpretentious, no-table sort of place that knows its job and sticks to it, which is exactly what its regulars want after a long day or a night out. The shop carries a council Food Hygiene Rating, and online opinion is mixed: some praise the value and a solid doner while others find it hit-and-miss, so it is best approached as a handy local pit-stop rather than a destination. For a fast, filling feed in the Easton end of BS5, it remains a reliable standby.
