Bristolians have reacted with shock and sadness at the sudden closure of one of the city’s iconic cafes.
The Lockside, underneath the Cumberland Basin flyover network, has been put on the market after shutting its doors last week - and Bristol Live breaking the news prompted a wave of memories and love for the famous cafe.
The cafe featured regularly as ‘Sid’s cafe’ in Only Fools and Horses when the sitcom was filmed in Bristol in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but in recent years had tried to leave behind its greasy spoon reputation.
