Clandown in Bath and North East Somerset

Been going for years and years since my student days in Bath. Still great food.

We had an excellent breakfast, with professional staff. The premises were very clean and tidy. The only minor criticism was the English breakfast tea was served with too much water, so was weak. But thanks for a love breakfast.

We originally thought this was a French Brasserie, but found this was not really the case. It is attached to the Royal Hotel in Bath, it you don’t have to be a resident to book a table here. However, the menu had much to our liking and didn’t disappoint. The starters we had were very tasty, lentil and bacon soup with chestnuts for hubby , and smoked mackerel pate for me with a nice variety of bread provided by the lovely waitress , who was managing every table on her own.very admirably. For mains hubby had chicken mixed grill and I had a rare sirloin, both with chunky chips, everything cooked perfectly. Although we were offered a sweet menu neither of us could take advantage of sampling the offerings. A very reasonable restaurant which we would certainly recommend eating at

Incredibly poor service, seemingly allow people to barge past and be seated before others
