    Great place. The Concorde was absolutely stunning and definitely the highlight. The rest of the museum had some interesting exhibits, but was a bit light on big aircraft. The Concorde made the visit well worth it. 👍🏻

    This was our second visit to Aerospace Bristol at the request of our 6 year old daughter! The staff we met on the day were friendly and knowledgeable; there were plenty of interactive exhibits which our daughter could engage with, the array of exhibits on scene were of a high quality and were accompanied by concise and informative captions. The undoubted highlight of the visit was the Concorde hangar. There is a hushed solemnity to this aircraft, particularly as it was the last of it's type to grace the skies. Concorde itself is in a remarkable state of preservation and is a credit to the conservators. If you are visiting, the tour of the interior is highly recommended and will serve as a rude awakening for those of used to subsonic travel! In conclusion, Aerospace Bristol is highly recommended. The gift shop is ample and the Cafe is reasonably priced.

    I've seen a few Concordes over the years but this one isn't surrounded by other exhibits so it's easy to appreciate its beauty. Plenty of other interesting exhibits telling the story of aircraft in Bristol too. On site parking is free and there is a cafe although we decided not to eat there.

    Most of the venue was wheelchair accessible. ♿ I even got to enter Concorde. Only a little bit, but enter it none the less. Some of the toilet doors are very hard to push, especially if you are on your own in a powerchair. Food was fresh, but not much choice for gluten free/allergies. Some lovely aircraft to see and worth spending a couple of hours here.
