African Palace is an African restaurant at 406 Stapleton Road in Easton, Bristol. Founded by Nigerian trained caterer Jackline Alero Benson, it was created to offer migrants, visitors and local diners a taste of familiar African food in a comfortable, welcoming setting.
Nigerian dishes form the heart of the menu, including jollof rice with grilled meat or fish, suya, yam porridge and pepper soup. Fried plantain and seasoned rice are used across several combinations, while grilled fish provides a generous centrepiece for a group.
The soup selection includes egusi, ogbono, banga, okra, oha and vegetable preparations, served with choices such as pounded yam, eba, fufu, semovita or starch. These pairings let diners explore the different textures and regional traditions that shape the restaurant’s cooking.
Ghanaian dishes such as waakye and peanut soup, Cameroon specialities and Southern African sadza broaden the menu beyond Nigeria. Beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks are available, and advance ordering supports both a meal in the restaurant and food to enjoy at home.
