Review for Antics Bath I had a wonderful experience at Antics in Bath. The ambiance was cozy yet stylish, perfect for a relaxed evening out. Our server, Johnny, truly made the night special. He was attentive, friendly, and gave excellent recommendations that made choosing dishes easy. The food was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic—especially fritti misto. Overall, Antics offers delicious food paired with standout service. Highly recommend!

Order carbonara and calamari takeaway,house distance is just less than 5 mins walk, carbonara is very disappointing too bland and watery definitely a 1 star standard for 18 pound with the portion and taste, calamari is decent 3.5

I ate here because it was close to my hotel and it was open later on a Sunday evening. Hmmm. I am finishing up a European trip which has included Rome and Florence. I must say that Antica Bath Ristorante was the best Italian food I have ever had the pleasure to taste. Better than any food I had in Italy! I had the Risotto ai Funghi (Risotto with mushrooms and truffle oil) and it was spectacular. Best meal of my entire trip. I’m sad to be leaving because nothing back home comes close to this. Thank you for giving me a truly authentic Italian delight.

I’m not sure what some of the other negative reviewers were smoking before their experience in Antico but ours was assolutamente perfetto!!! Specials were delicious, mains were perfect size and to die for, Wine was brilliant, service was great, very timely and polite, not to mention conversational and they really made us feel welcome. All of the staff were so friendly, if I was ever back in Bath from Australia I would definitely go again or recommend it. Price is irrelevant when you’ve had such a memorable night. Great service, great wine and great food overrides any cost. Grazie per averci ospitato !! ❤️ 🇦🇺

Thumbs down. Two dishes, both failures: Lasagna--pool of red sauce with tasteless cheese--missing the layers of beef, bechamel and pasta. just inedible. Almost as bad: "lobster, pasta special": over-grilled lobster tail that had to be pried out of shell ( "sorry ,we don't have lobster fork, just keep digging and it will come out"... stringy and rubbery), with flat tubes of overcooked pasta drowning in peppery red sauce with tiny, diced up zucchini. We quietly expressed our disappointment, leaving plates of picked over disaster. Waiter graciously took the lasagna off the bill and offered dessert, which we declined. We finished our tasty carafe of red wine and left. Our suggestion:get a new chef.

Awful Dining Experience – Don’t Waste Your Time I recently had a meal at this restaurant in Bath, and it was nothing short of a disaster. From the moment we ordered, things started going wrong. Several of the dishes we requested never even made it to the table, and after waiting far too long, we had no choice but to cancel them altogether. The staff seemed completely disinterested and unorganized. The worst part? When the bill arrived, they had included a service charge, even though the service was beyond unacceptable. Normally, this would be optional, but they didn’t even ask. It felt incredibly unfair given the terrible experience we had. If you're thinking about dining here, don’t. There are plenty of better options in Bath where you'll actually get what you pay for.

On our trip to Bath, we saw the decoration by chance on a weekday and decided to eat here, thinking it was an Italian restaurant. We wanted to order as three people, the waiter who took care of us ordered two main dishes wrong and only one dish was correct. All of the dishes came very late and two of them were completely wrong. One of the wrong dishes was corrected, and when the second one was wrong, we said we didn't mind and didn't ask for correction so one person was left hungry at the table.At the end of the night when we asked for the bill, we were all very surprised at the extra service charge that was reflected to us. Almost 70% of the dishes were wrong and to add to this mistake, the service charge for the order!!! Extremely unprofessional attitude. By the way, the only correct dish was unfortunately not tasty at all.

Don't believe the Google overview which says this place has jazz on Tuesdays and Thursdays which was the reason we chose to dine there last night. They don't and the waiter said they haven't for 3 years. Also don't follow Google Maps directions if they point you down Grove Street, it's on the main Argyle Street level. We weren't impressed by the food, lasagne had far too much cheese and meatballs were dry and solid. I appreciate this may be a matter of taste. Service was slow even when there were only about 6 tables still occupied towards the end.The tables were too close together. Disappointing all round. Oh, and watch out for the 11% service charge automatically added to the bill. If you have any mobility issues, be aware that there are 16 steps down to the toilets.

When we eat out we expect to pay a premium in the price because someone has prepared, cooked and served food for us. What I don’t understand is why on top of a price that already includes service is a 10% compulsory service charged added? Being treated commercially like this spoilt the evening. Antica seem set up to take advantage of tourists who won’t be back. We are local and won’t be back either. Shame though, the food was good.

Bravo! An exceptional experience all round from the service to the exquisite authentic food.... I accidentally booked for four instead of five... so Antica were very accommodating and got us set up on the pavement seating. Which was even better as it was perfect people watching on a balmy evening. Despite a full house the service was attentive and efficient. Booking advised! We thought this was the best food we have tasted in Bath in a long time. Try the specials, they were exceptional... so fresh and delicious. Thank you, we will be back!

Lovely restaurant in the town centre. We walked in without reservation and were seated without an issue. The service was very efficient and professional. our server highlighted the days specials and options available. Our starter Calamari was excellent and not rubbery at all. The mushroom risotto was very tasty and cooked to the correct consistency. My Fillet steak was perfectly cooked as requested medium rare, melt in the mouth delicious. All in all a wonderful experience. I recommend a visit to Antica for a very enjoyable experience.

The food was really, really delicious~ The staff was very friendly, and even though I ordered a drink, they asked me if I wanted water, so I paid for a large bottle of water. I thought water service was free in many places in the UK. I probably only ate 1/7 of it~ Here is the service charge +10%~ This was a bit disappointing.

I am writing to express my disappointment with the recent dining experience I had. Unfortunately, both the food and the service were far below the standards I expected. Firstly, the food quality was TERRIBLE. The dishes were lacked flavor. Specifically, the Soup, Bruschetta and Meatball Spaghetti were particularly disappointing as it tasted stale and unappetizing. Secondly, the service was EXTREMELY POOR. The male staff was inattentive, rude, and unresponsive to our requests. It took an unreasonably long time to get our orders, and when we finally received our food, there were mistakes that were not promptly corrected. I hope you will take this feedback seriously and make the necessary improvements to ensure a better experience for future patrons. Thank you.

Me and my mother haven’t been to bath before we wanted a small bistro for dinner, and something Italian..we were surprised to find our exact image! We walked inside and the atmosphere was really warm and cosy, along with having the Italian look from the outside and inside. The colour is beautiful and so is the furniture, it’s a really delicate feeling, the service was fast and the staff were absolutely very politeprofessional and also very friendly. We were seated fast and had a lovely evening looking out the window and enjoying our beautiful dinner, the presentation of the food was outstanding and very tidy..I watch a lot of Gordon Ramsey and I’m sure he’d be impressed,not only was the food presentation great it was also delicious the flavour and texture was giving the Italian feel. The staff was respectful, and the restaurant was very clean. And last but not least the price I think the food was worth the money it was medium price but it was worth it! Totally a 10/10

We had the set lunch, choice of 2 or 3 courses. All food was expertly cooked and portions were a good size. Prices average for today and service attentive but not pushy. We weren’t rushed either. My spaghetti and meatballs were probably the best I’ve ever had and the almond and chocolate cake dense and dark but light. Under £100 for 2, two course, 1 three course, two wines, a soft drink and service charge. Wouldn’t hesitate to return.

We had just arrived in Bath and were looking forward to a place to eat and Antica was recommended to us by our B&B. It was a great recommendation! We made a reservation and when we arrived we were seated quickly ( we were there on a Wednesday ). We both ordered drinks (best vodka tonic I’ve had in a while) and then we ordered. I got the bolognese and my husband got the Quattro Stagioni pizza. It just hit the spot; the pizza was so flavorful and the pasta was homemade and delicious. And the wine suggestion was spot on ( we got a carafe of Primitivo). And the location is on the Pulteney Bridge. Honestly just an all around great evening with good food and friendly service.

My friends and I had the best Italian dinner outside Italy. Firstly, we were warmly welcomed by the very attentive manager Jay. Then Karla came to take care of our tables, very friendly and helped us make the right choices. The food, I felt like I was in Italy, in the middle of the bath, the food embraces you in its freshness, spices and temperatures. We ordered two starters which were enough for four people to share. The garlic bread and the menu were sensational. The main courses were the best I've ever had, the seafood risotto was super tasty, hearty, marvellous. The whole seabass was very well presented and seasoned, impressive. I highly recommend a visit, look for Karla and Jay, you won't regret it, the best Italian restaurant in the city of Bath.

Despite not having a reservation and it being kind of busy, we were seated quickly in a beautiful spot in the restaurant. The service was excellent as well.

Just felt like 'another customer'. Service generally poor until the end and the bill came out with a 10% service charge. We sat. Menus dumped down. No offer of anything, no small talk or specials. Came back and ordered some wine and water. Wine was poured so fast into the glasses it splashed out. Was the place busy? Not really. But the manager seemed to think he's some superstar server and has the attitude to match. Starters were okay. Different take on a Caprese salad but okay and bruschetta average. Mains we both has the seafood linguine. Calamari tough and chewy. Again, it was alright. Not the worst, not the best. Desset. The Tiramisu was amazing. And for £9 I should hope so. Probably best I've had for a ling time. Servers need to know how to serve. You don't stack plates in front of customers. With the way she gripped the cutlery and lifted the plates stacked from in front of me, she almost took my eye out with a steak knife. Train your servers how to wrist stack or, tell them to do two journeys. You're not a Weatherspoons...and you're charging 10% for this below entry level of service. Of course 'service is optional'. I'm aware but sometimes it's just not worth the agro and explaining how terrible the service was. Because it's taken personally. I know this. I've managed restaurants and worked in this industry for over 20 years. This isn't the cheapest place in Bath for what they're offering so to be treated like 'more money in the till' really gets my back up. For 8 years in Bath, I've always had to go to places that allow dogs, so the idea was to try somewhere we wouldn't usually be able to visit, especially as it's the last place we past walking back to our accomadation. And if you're looking for authentic Italian, honestly, I'd be very surprised if this was owned by Italians...If you're a tourist visiting Bath, there are lots of other great restaurants with frendly approachable skilled staff. 3 Courses, Wine (£35) and Water inc 10% Service. £125. I will not be back. Glad I've finally tried this place but a poor excuse for an Italian Restaurant.

We recently visited Antica on Father's Day, hoping for a nice family celebration. Unfortunately, the service from our waiter, Jay (a tall gentleman), significantly detracted from our experience. Jay displayed a lack of attentiveness towards my family member, who is hard of hearing. His responses to their inquiries were dismissive and unhelpful. When delivering our starters, he simply deposited them on the table without a word, making no attempt to distribute them individually or inquire about preferences. Furthermore, his fingers made unnecessary contact with the entire surface of the plates, raising hygiene concerns. In stark contrast, the waitress in the black uniform was a shining example of excellent service. She was attentive, ensured empty drinks were promptly removed, and carefully delivered each plate to the intended person. Her friendly demeanour made a positive impact on our experience. Considering the significance of Father's Day, Jay's inattentive and unhygienic service was particularly disappointing. This is a stark contrast to our previous positive experience at this restaurant with colleagues and family last year. Given this recent encounter, I hesitate to recommend this place to others. Extremely distasteful discriminatory service from Jay on fathers day, I will mention this to all my acquaintances around the area to not visit this establishment - previously loved this place when I visited with my work colleagues and sister last year. The restaurant had the audacity to slap on a 11% service charge from this terrible service. Wasn't even worth my time to argue to remove it so just paid the extra fee.

We went to this restaurant because we wanted some good Italian food and the reviews were very good. We are also vegetarian and vegan. We had good options. The service was good. We sat near the window and the atmosphere was also very good. Then came the food. The bruschetta had just warm bread with large pieces of tomatoes on it. No oil or tasty dressing. Just warm bread and tomatoes. Pizza had too much cheese when we asked for less cheese. The pasta was so overcooked. We had to give the pizza back. And the second one came with less cheese but so undercooked. Felt like we were eating fresh dough. So if you want authentic Italian food I would skip this restaurant. Sorry for the bad review. But it is a true review from our experience.

Their Tiramisu is like a dream on a spoon, no wonder it was the best in town. And let's talk about their pasta—it's like a big warm hug in a palte, with sauces that'll make your taste buds dance. Starters are off-the-charts delicious, from fresh bruschetta Al Pomodoro to crisp Calamari Fritti that hit the spot. It's like they've bottled up Italy and brought it straight to your table, and that is why they are truly a family-run Italian restaurant. If you're into good food and good times, this place is an absolute winner. Trust me, you won't leave Antica in Bath disappointed!

My very first impression of Antica was unfortunately a bit disappointing. My wife and I had booked a table for lunch at 2pm on Saturday afternoon and on entering the premises despite two members of staff walking past us whilst we were clearly standing there waiting to be seated, neither bothered to acknowledge our presence. Now I appreciate and accept that they may have been busy with other customers, but a quick greeting, a smile and a "I'll be right with you" really doesn't require very much effort and it goes a long way in making customers feel welcome! The service improved once we were seated and that's where it all got much better. Firstly, I applaud any restaurant that serves wine by the 50cl carafe and not only does Antica do that, but there's a few wines to choose from! My wife and I went for the Chardonnay and it did not disappoint. For starters, we both chose the Salmone Affumicato that was both very nice and a decent sized portion was served. For mains I had the Pollo Antica and my wife had the Petto d’anatra. Both dishes were very tasty, nicely presented and good portions. To finish off, we had a Homemade Tiramisu and a Torta Mandorle e Cioccolato from the dessert menu. Again, both were delicious and came in decent size portions. Fortunately the food and the service after we were seated made up for the questionable first impressions, so I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Antica as a nice place to eat and would definitely return.

Just popped in without a booking. A good welcome and food to match. Not from Bath so unlikely to be a regular but would happily go again and recommend to friends

Very nice little restaurant with friendly staff. Reasonably priced. Food wise, I’ve found that it’s better for pasta than pizza. The chicken and mushroom pizza was a little bland and not the best. However, the pasta absolutely to die for! Incredible flavour and very enjoyable. My favourite place to get pasta, but not so much for pizza. Also have an 11% service charge, so keep that in mind.

This was ok. Food was average nothing special. Not the cheapest for 2 bowls of pasta and a garlic bread. Meatballs weren't very warm tbh and it was quite salty. Tagliatelle was just average. Garlic bread wasn't very garlicky either and slightly burnt. A bottle of water was £4.50 not all robbers wear masks it seems. 1 glass of lemonade and a bottle of perroni came to £61.00 Wouldn't go again.

Read the reviews sounded great. Booked a table for 8 of us. It stated they have live jazz music on a Tuesday and Thursday, there was nothing. It took the staff a good 15 to 20 minutes to offer to get us some drinks. The place was virtually empty. The food was extremely over seasoned. They put on a 11% surcharge but don't tell you but are more than happy to take your tip and pocket it. I for one will recommend going to another of baths Italian restaurants and avoid this place.

The food here was brilliant and really tasty, the service was fast and everyone was really friendly. We sat outside that was not a problem because there are basically no cars in bath. Overall highly recommended! Brilliant.

We were sat at a window table which was nice, at first the service seemed a little rushed but everything was fine. The food was really good, They brought a sparkling cake for the 10yr olds birthday and sung too, this was totally unexpected and great, the whole place joined in and he loved it. Fairly pricey, but for what we had and the service, it seemed fine. Thanks guys, I'll definitely return and recommend.

Very lovely good, I loved the mozzarella bread crumbed with the tomato sauce. Was amazing and much bigger than expected (though maybe over cheesed with a main of carbonara), my partner had calamari followed by the sea food risotto that he absolutely loved. Very good.

Really great food. The seating arrangement felt a little claustrophobic at first, but it works because you get chatting to people on adjacent tables, and the music-free chatter really makes for a continental-style vibe.

Absolutely brilliant meal. Booked last minute for a table of 16. 17 of us turned up which they were very accommodating for. Food was brilliant, all dishes arrived together and piping hot, which is difficult for a large party. Food tasted amazing. Service was faultless. Really wonderful experience, thank you.

Fabulous food, the sauce with the mussels was amazing, the best I've had. Second time we've eaten there and won't be the last. Best Italian restaurant in Bath. We both had mussels to start followed by Gnocchi and a seafood pasta absolutely delicious flavours 😋

Food is excellent, there are some really cosy spots to sit in, especially the table for 2 round the corner in the window. Highly recommend the muscles, the lamb and the flombe' apple pudding. Lovely front of house and serving staff, it felt very authentic.

The food was ok, but it is not authentic Italian food, it’s the western version of it: fettuccine alfredo with chicken, spaghetti and meatballs, etc. I wasn’t impressed with the carbonara. The sauce was bland as it was mostly heavy cream and no guanciale or pancetta, just smoked bacon. Since it’s not really authentic I would consider it overall pricey and not worth the value for the quality of the food. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant to anyone who has tried authentic Italian food, however, if you’re looking for non-traditional Italian this place might be ok for you, just be prepared to pay a lot more than Olive Garden.

Had the mozzarella cheese with the spicy tomato sauce, which was great along with their garlic bread. The Pollo Antica was also delicious. The ambiance is a little nicer in the the front room, but the back room where we ate was very cozy.

One of the worst veg burger of my life. Had to throw away the entire food. The tiki inside the burger was burnt and the owner claimed it is the way it is. Never had such a bad burger

I visit Picnic Coffee every week for the delicious coffee and lemon drizzle cake. However, the staff just bring my order to the table and walk away without a word or a glance at me. Where are the staff other reviewers praise so highly?
