We recently chose to hold our small wedding reception at the Hollybush and we could not be more thrilled with our experience. We were so well looked after from the first enquiry to the last few drinks of the evening. The food was superb, and the service was even better. The whole party were treated like family, it was so well organised and they really took away any stress for us, helping with whatever they could. One of the favours for a guest got misplaced (my error), and they replaced it with a mini bottle of prosecco and even made a name tag, all without calling me - they just did it - I really appreciated that. Then to top it all off they gifted us with a gift card for future use, after we'd ran them all ragged all day! It was so kind of Russ and the team. Thank you so much to the Hollybush team and please if you're thinking of booking any event or party - get in contact with them!

Absolutely awesome food and service, our waitress (Ellie) was very helpful in running through the menu with us (some fussy eaters) and aiding in our choices. Would recommend and will be back, the cheesecake is to die for!

Terrible , we ordered fish and chips , I had 11chips on my plate my husband 13 . No staff interested in how our meal was , my rum and coke drink was drowned in coke , I asked the barman if he could possibly pour another for me , he took it with attitude from the table and two minutes later returned with the same drink but had tipped out some of the drink . Horrible experience would not recommend going here if you’re looking for good food , nice atmosphere and friendly staff . I emailed them two weeks ago and not heard a thing as yet !

Just returned from a Christmas meal with friends @£35 each. Their starter was missing sourdough bread:their main was missing a vegan Yorkshire pudding; their pudding- they were told no vegan ice cream would sorbet do? then some ice cream was found?! After complaining we got £20 off drinks but it still doesn’t really make up for the fact each course had missing something

This is one of my favourite places to eat. Never ever disappointed! I took my family for dinner last night as a pre Christmas family get together. We chose from the excellent 3 course set menu - each dish was well presented and delicious. This is lovely setting and the staff were great, all in all a fantastic example of a gastropub.

We were impressed by the tasty lunch menu and returned to try other dishes.The confit of duck was tasty as was the sea trout with seafood risotto.The risotto had quite a lot of chilli which I didn't feel was helpful to the subtle flavour of the sea bass but it was all cooked well.We both had the steak and ale pie in our second visit,which was good.Even the accompanying kale tasted o.k.The treacle sponge pudding was light and white chocolate and cranberry Blondie with ice cream hit the spot.Staff were friendly and accommodating .

The interior of the pub is really modern and charming and I like that you can see the goings on of the kitchen, it boasts canteen vibes.The menu was quite limited and there wasn't much choice so I went with the staple choice of the burger. It was a good burger and I was impressed with the fries portion!Our waiter was nice and friendly and the service was good. Maybe the food was a little overpriced though.

Cena encantadora. Cumpla completamente con todas las nuevas restricciones de COVID. Mesas distanciadas.La comida se sirve rápidamente. Muy fresco y delicioso.Tenía un plato para compartir para comenzar, morralla, calamares y alitas de pollo con una deliciosa salsa casera. Seguido de eglefino y hamburguesas, definitivamente recomiendo todos los platos. Personal muy atento en todo momento. Definitivamente regresaremos.

Visité con amigos para el asado del domingo. Reservé una mesa con anticipación. Teníamos 1 ternera, 1 jamón y 1 vegano (el menú solo mostraba vegetariano, pero lo hicieron vegano a pedido, sin problemas). Tuve el jamón y puedo decir que estaba delicioso. Cheesecake se veía increíble y fue bien recibido por mis amigos. Excelente servicio, agua para el cachorro y buena cerveza y sidra. Irá de nuevo :)

Absolutamente consternado con nuestra experiencia en el pub The holly bush. Viviendo a solo un minuto a pie del pub, es el local perfecto para visitar, pero después de hoy no volveremos.Entramos y nos habló abruptamente un hombre con una sudadera con capucha de vellón que pensamos que en realidad era un cliente por su elección de ropa (para alguien que trabaja en el frente de la casa, uno pensaría que estaría un poco más levantado juntos). Nos llevaron a nuestra mesa que habíamos reservado, sin embargo, el hombre se volvió demasiado grosero con nosotros ya que habíamos reservado una mesa solo para bebidas, pero nos dijeron que no nos habrían dejado reservar una mesa solo para bebidas, por lo que ahora no había espacio para tomar bebidas ya que no nos permitieron sentarnos en nuestra mesa reservada.Le preguntamos al hombre qué iba a hacer ya que había tomado la reserva para bebidas, sin embargo, repetidamente le dijeron que no tomarían una reserva solo para bebidas y que ahora no había dónde sentarnos.Vinimos aquí para una celebración de cumpleaños número 21 en la calle, que se arruinó por su mala actitud hacia nosotros. Como alguien que ha trabajado en hostelería, esta no es la actitud correcta para mantener a sus clientes regresando.Fue extremadamente grosero y fue totalmente en contra del "cliente siempre tiene la razón".Muy mal servicio al cliente mejor probando The White Harte justo en la calle. Servicio muy educado y genuino.

Este es un buen pub con mucho espacio al aire libre. Probamos la comida allí y quedamos muy decepcionados. Las hamburguesas (tanto de pollo como de ternera) estaban demasiado cocidas y había mucha pasta en el pescado. Cuando paga 15 por comida, se siente un poco decepcionante. ¡Tampoco sé por qué anuncian la ensalada de col como parte de las hamburguesas cuando no obtienes más que una guarnición!

Visité anoche y necesito expresar mi decepción por los nuevos arreglos implementados. Este es el segundo pub que he visitado en la última semana, el primero es un Marstons. Allí encontré algunas pantallas de metacrilato alrededor del bar, pero aún se podía pedir desde allí y pagar en efectivo. Aquí tuve que hacer el pedido desde mi teléfono y solo pagar con tarjeta. Esto llevó mucho tiempo y todas las conversaciones cesaron durante casi 15 minutos mientras navegábamos por el proceso y pagábamos. Para un gastropub con servicio de camarero, la comida tenía un precio correcto, pero ahora es de autoservicio, la relación calidad-precio es mala.

Terrible service, decent food. We arrived and one lady was seating a short queue while 3 other staff stood around looking lost, we then had to wait around 15 mins to order drinks so ordered food at the same time. The food came out quickly but after we finished it took over 30 mins for plates to be cleared and desserts to be offered, nobody asked if food was ok.Overall decent food terrible service.

We went to the hollybush on the 21/2/2000 for a meal. The pub was packed but our table was ready on time at 1900 our menus were on the table and by 1930 the food was on the table five of the six opted for fish and one opted for chicken supreme, the potions were large and beautifully cooked. We then opted for dessert at no time did we feel rushed three ordered the sticky toffee pudding and asked for custard instead of the ice cream that the menu stated no trouble at all. All in all the meal was excellent and the service first class.

I am a regular for Sunday lunch at The Hollybush but am now looking for a alternative option after our recent visit. The portion of meat was very much on the small side and the roast potatoes were bordering on inedible as they were so dry which is surprising as we ate just after they started serving food.Things will need to improve before we will return as all of our group thought the food was underwhelming.

We love the Hollybush, its warm, welcoming, amazing staff, wonderful food. Well, they have surpassed themselves with the recent veggie addition to their menu. I chose oven roasted cauliflower steak with mushrooms, baked tomato, salad and chips. Oh my goodness it was so flavoursome and absolutely delicious. My husband had the fish and chips which never fails, you cant go wrong with that dish. Its always a winner. Manager recommended a red wine for me which was wonderful. Fab night as always. Thank you x

We recently visited for a Sunday roast and enjoyed it very much. The service was quick and friendly, the food arrived very quickly, was of good quality, and was reasonably priced. The atmosphere was great, although the music was a little loud initially (we were sat right next to the speaker to be fair), and there was a nice selection of beers too. All in all, we'll no doubt be back in future.

We found the staff friendly and good quick service. I had the chicken supreme, this was very good - moist chicken, tasty sauce, liked the sweetcorn fritter and fondant potato, sprouting broccili nice too. My husband had ham, egg and chips. Two eggs, huge slice of lovely ham and well cooked chips.We shared a dessert - the chocolate truffles with salted caramel icecream and popcorn. The truffles were very rich so we were glad we had shared, really nice dessert.We enjoyed our evening and would happily return.

Un pub muy acogedor después de un excelente paseo por los pueblos. Después de pasar 3 horas deambulando por las partes antiguas de Warmley Village, miramos la antigua casa del Sr. John Champion, quien había establecido su fábrica en la década de 1760, el Kingswood Heritage Museum, los jardines donde había una enorme estatua de hormigón de En Neptuno, pasamos junto a la escuela Grange Community, y a lo largo del camino de Deanery hacia la ruta ciclista Bristol - Bath y entramos en el Crown Industrial Estate. Luego encontramos nuestro camino hacia el pub Hollybush.

Con un evento de recaudación de fondos de caridad para asistir por la noche, decidí comer a la hora del almuerzo. Como no quería ir lejos, aproveché la oportunidad de volver a visitar este pub cercano, ya que mi última visita fue hace unos 4 años. Esta fue una merienda rápida pero, como siempre, quería algo sabroso, ciertamente un poco más que un sándwich tostado, pero no una comida grande. El pub estaba tranquilo, ya que era la hora del almuerzo temprano. Solo había otras dos mesas ocupadas cuando llegué, pero cuando me fui, varias mesas más estaban ocupadas.El menú no fue particularmente emocionante, e inicialmente pude encontrar solo dos platos que me atrajeron: el "Gammon Steak" y los "Butchers Fagots", y habiendo tenido el primero recientemente, serían los maricones. Para mi rescate vino el tablero de especialidades que anunciaba "Sopa de zanahoria y cilantro" más una opción de tres hamburguesas. El primero fue "Pollo con Pancetta y chutney de albaricoque", el siguiente fue "Salsa de cerdo, chorizo, emmental y tomate", y luego, la opción vegetariana, "Calabaza, quinua, queso de cabra y mermelada de chile". Todas las hamburguesas fueron servidas con papas fritas y ensalada de repollo. Podría haber elegido fácilmente cualquiera de las dos primeras hamburguesas, pero me decidí por la opción de pollo.Antes de ordenar, pregunté a este tablero de Especiales porque mostraba solo un precio por los artículos enumerados: no está bien para las tres hamburguesas, sino para la Sopa de zanahoria y cilantro más una hamburguesa. Por lo tanto, podría haber significado 14 para Soup and a Burger: habría sido un buen negocio, pero la sopa me informaron que era 6 y una hamburguesa era 14. El tablero de especialidades (pizarra y tiza) era engañoso y debería haber sido modificado para incluir el precio por separado de la sopa. ¡Sin embargo, no lo había hecho cuando me fui!Pedí mi comida y bebí un poco de mi botella (gratis) de agua fría, y 11 minutos después llegó mi comida. Estaba satisfecho con la apariencia a pesar de que se sirve en una bandeja de madera (¿por qué?). El pan era bueno y fresco, la ensalada era bastante soso, las papas fritas apenas crujientes y cocidas congeladas (¿por qué no unas cuantas papas fritas caseras 'gordas y gruesas'?) La hamburguesa estaba cubierta de una masa suave o quizás algo ese queso insípido (no lo sé). La rebanada de horrible tomate de res fue una baja inmediata, en su nuevo hogar al borde de mi plato. El primer bocado de la hamburguesa me tomó por sorpresa, ya que tenía un sabor bastante fuerte de la Pancetta, el pollo estaba caliente y muy húmedo, de hecho estaba muy bien cocinado. Sin embargo, era muy pequeño. El chutney de albaricoque tenía un sabor moderadamente fuerte, nada desagradable. La porción generosa de ketchup debe notarse porque era de buena calidad, no en esas bolsitas de plástico (que te asfixian a ti y a tu ropa) y solo porque era una porción generosa.El servicio era bueno, y el lugar estaba limpio, ordenado, atractivo y tenía un buen ambiente.El costo, a los 14 años, era un poco elevado para una hamburguesa tan pequeña. Diría que debería haberse ofrecido a 2 - 3 menos, digamos 11. 50 Tengo que decir que disfruté la comida, pero el elemento principal también era pequeño y eso lo hacía caro. Dado que las patatas fritas y la ensalada de col carecían lamentablemente (y ni siquiera mencionan esa horrible rodaja de tomate de res (¡qué asco!), Lamentablemente esto hizo que una comida muy buena fuera una comida normal.Un punto que siento que tengo que aclarar, y esto no es culpa de la gerencia, fue que una mujer de mediana edad en una mesa al otro lado de la habitación habló tan fuerte con su compañero de comedor que pude escuchar con demasiada facilidad. y fuera de sus problemas de trabajo. Es totalmente innecesario, en mi humilde opinión, hablar tan alto que invade el derecho de otras personas a un poco de paz y tranquilidad mientras comen.

Arrived for our 7 clock booking and seen straight to our table. Table was ready but only two place settings when it was a table for three. Ordered three drinks when arrived the waitress dropped accidentally the whole tray of drinks over one of the party. Mess cleaned up quickly but no apology from the waitress only the girl that came to clear up the mess. Food was excellent and so was desserts. When bill arrived we had been charged for the drinks and had to say about it. No good will gesture was given bearing in mind one of the party got soaked. It took us to mention it first! We felt rushed to leave the table as I guess they wanted to clear the restaurant area. Food was lovely but that would not draw us back again because of the experience we had.

Always have great meals at the Hollybush. Had an issue with my meal the other day- pork belly was undercooked for my liking and no soggy skin (no crackling), so mentioned it to the manager who came over to see how our meal was and he took it back, allowing me to eat the veggies and offered me another meal. When it came to the bill, it wasn't on there, and when we told them we were adamant we were paying for it, he refused to let us. Such amazing customer service and we will be back again as we just love it here.

Came here with a few friends to celebrate one of their birthdays. Drinks arrived promptly. Food orders taken quickly too. We ordered four sandwiches and one small fish and chips. The sandwiches took a fairly long time to arrive but we weren’t too bothered. However when they did arrive it was clear the fish and chips would not be coming out at the same time. They finally arrived around 15mins later.

Great place. Great food and drink quality. Only let down the clientele that are here, there was a group of middle aged men in the garden and one clearly being rude to whoever sat near that, and the staff walked by and almost encouraged the guy, greeting him whilst he was rude to others, his friends sniggered whilst this happened. X3 staff seen this and didn’t say a word. Pretty poor if you ask me. It’s the only putt off clearly the staff knew the man so he’s obviously there often, which completely put us off. This is a shame because it’s a great spot.

The pub itself has nice seating area both inside and out with a lovely atmosphere however since the last visit the food is really not great for the money you pay, the service is slow and no real personality is shown when serving drinks / food. Sunday lunch is very poor with portion sizes small, roast potatoes hard however the Yorkshire puddings are very nice and massive. Would not return for food however would for a relaxing drink in the sun. Nice selection of wines on offer.

Ambiente encantador cuando llegamos y una cálida bienvenida, comenzamos a atender los pedidos recibidos de manera rápida y cordial. Desafortunadamente, bajamos de allí, las comidas eran normales, el plato de pollo alimentado con maíz era insípido y poco inspirador y el servicio lento con la necesidad de repetir y recordar los pedidos de bebidas. ¡Finalmente pagó la factura, 3 invitados pagaron con tarjeta y el saldo se pagó en efectivo con alrededor de 13 debido a un cambio que nunca regresó! Tuvo que perseguir nuestro cambio ya que la camarera se ocupaba de su negocio, así que claramente nunca nos lo darían. Cuando fue cuestionado, se devolvió, pero no se hizo ninguna disculpa que no sea el servicio que esperaría cuando el dinero adeudado se haya retenido sin reconocimiento. ¡Servicio pobre!

Just got back from lunch at the Hollybush and I have to say it was horrendous ... from the food to the service. My husband’s beef was so rare we thought it was going to walk off the plate. Veg dried up and tough. Ordered desserts and they didn’t arrive so after 40 mins of waiting I asked the waiter who pulled our order from his pocket and had actually forgot to order it. We heard lots of complaints from other customers as well. The bill came and my husband by now was fuming as we had the children and grandchildren with us. He complained to the manager who took 20% off the total bill. Safe to say we won’t be returning to the Hollybush again.

We had a Christmas meal here for 17 people recently, and it was fantastic. The pub was very busy (a good sign), being so close to the Christmas break, but the pub had been staffed to cope with the expected visitors. Our pre-ordered food arrived very efficiently, delivered by a team of waitresses. It takes quite a few hands to bring out 17 meals at once! Some establishments use the large number of diners in a party to let the quality slip. Not here! Congratulations to the chefs who produced 3 excellent courses. The smiling and helpful bar staff and waitresses made it a lovely atmosphere. I would recommend it without hesitation.

We all had the fish and chips, lovely bit of fish and very chunky chips with smashed peas, tartare and curry sauce. And cheesecake with ice cream was delicious. So good in fact, we booked our next visit in. Not cheap, but well worth it.

Well everyone has the burger or the fish and chips as they are the cheapest (£13!) dishes. The burger is more expensive than a couple of months ago and the onion ring has disappeared off the top. It was nice despite the limp, white chips. Glad I didn’t have the tiny bowls of vegetarian pasta (£13.50!) as those who did, were starving! Had a go at a pudding- yuck! Lump of tasteless, claggy cheesecake which had stuff in it not listed on the menu, which I’m allergic to so that got swiftly returned. I like this place - apart from it being boiling - but I like the interior a lot more than the food which is unreasonably priced on a very dull, unvaried and pompous sounding menu. I’m sure they can do better than this or at least work out what they are trying to achieve as it all feels like a bit of a money making scheme lacking in soul at the moment.

Este pub ha sido reformado al más alto nivel. Solía ir allí hace años. Así que fue un verdadero placer que me pidieran salir y descubrir que es un entorno tan encantador. La comida estaba absolutamente deliciosa. El personal era brillante, nada era demasiado problema. Un almuerzo realmente memorable.

Visité anoche el miércoles por la noche, un lugar encantador, mi compañero y yo nos sentamos en el área con la cocina abierta, la comida era de calidad del restaurante, plato de cangrejo y pudín negro fueron deliciosos, la carne de venado principal se destacó, mi compañero dijo que el fish & chips fue realmente bueno también (con salsa de curry, ñam) crumble y parfait muy sabroso, todo presentado encantador. Camareras encantadoras Definitivamente voy a volver.

Fui aquí con mi pareja para una cena. El lugar estaba limpio y la camarera que teníamos era preciosa, pero lamentablemente la comida era bastante cara para la calidad. Grandes porciones pero comida sin sabor. Mi compañero tenía un pudín y dijo que era decente, pero no vale la pena el dinero. No lo he recomendado y no lo recomendaría a mis amigos o familiares.

Really nice place, nice atmosphere. We had a nice table with kitchen views as the kitchen is open. We really enjoyed the duck, amazing flavours... a little bit overdone for my taste and the knife wasn't meat knife so it was hard to cut it.

We were staying locally so ate twice on a recommendation. The first time was very good food and service was also good. However we went again last Friday when it was very busy and were not happy with having to wait an hour for our mains despite going in early. The food was excellent when it arrived but the service spoiled our enjoyment this time. Would go again but on a quieter evening or perhaps for lunch.

Me and my partner visited the Hollybush on a Friday night as a celebration meal and we had a lovely evening. We were seated straight away and the staff were very attentive, asking us regularly if we had everything we need/wanted more drinks/bread whilst we waited for our starters etc.

Third visit in last six weeks and the most disappointing, food was not of usual standard we have grown to expect, Barnsley Lamb Chop was very fatty and with a big bone, I have had this before and never had a issue. Staff not as attentive and did not do check back until we had nearly finished. The mixed veg was very wet and had not been drained correctly, the service was also slow,,

We visited The Hollybush last night for my Son's 18th birthday celebration family meal. I cannot praise it highly enough. This was a meal for 18 people, you would expect at least a couple of little hiccups with so many individual needs to cater for at a single sitting. But No. The whole evening was absolutely perfect, every meal arrived exactly as ordered and the food was stunning. We had a little roped off area in the main pub which we were allowed to decorate before hand, as it was a surprise meal. The staff were so helpful and friendly, which all meant my Son had a night to remember. I would highly recommend The Hollybush. Excellent food,staff and location. Will definitely be visiting again very soon.

I went to The Hollybush on my 18th birthday and was surprised with all of my family being there (18 people). From what I was told, communication between my dad and the pub was fantastic for months all the way up until the day. When we were there nothing went wrong at all, every meal was correct and all the staff were very friendly. My meal was extremely good and so it seemed so was everyone else's. Fantastic end to my birthday.

Given the unsatisfactory meals offered in many local restaurants/ public houses, the Holly Bush impressed. Excellent food: good service (albeit a tad slow: probably due to its popularity). Full marks to the Holly Bush's chefs and waitresses/ waiters.

Ci siamo stati per una cena di famiglia. il menù non è molto ampio e il numero di porzioni sono contate perchè alcuni piatti che abbiamo ordinato erano indisponibili già alle 6pm. Quello che però ci hanno portato era buono, il servizio cortese. Altro problema che di due carte di credito che avevo una non era accettata e una non ha funzionato nonostante l'avessi usata il giorno stesso. Ho pagato contanti ma è rimasto questo piccolo neo.

Cut out the fancy menu and just tell it like it is. We both had lamb chop for a main and it was so covered in balsamic vinegar the poor lamb died for nothing as you couldn't tase it. It was over cooked and as for 'lamb' it must have been a big baby. I specifically asked if it was a leg of lamb chop only to be served backbone. As I right this i gave no taste of the lamb, potatoes or carrots just the lingering balsamic even after trying to wash the taste away with my Guinness. The starter was nothing special either as the promused Oili was missing and meeting with garlic during the process. We await our sweet dishes with apprehension as they have already told us the pistachio ice cream is finished sbd being substituted with...... vanilla, oh joy.

Lovely meal our local inn standards always superb!! Only issue very very busy and just the 2 of us kid free evening and sadly sat by 3 very very loud ( the whole dining area could hear them) couples fellow diners were looking we actually couldn’t hear to talk appreciate very busy / we booked late but perhaps sitting groups of 2’s and 4’s together and bigger parties together would be more appropriate. Food here is fabulous and service too.

Came here on a walk from the Avon Valley railway and it was a welcome beacon at the end of a walk with small children. We sat in the garden which is sort of in the car park but still nicely situated and a sun trap.

This is our 4th maybe 5th time eating here. Its a lovely pub with a fantastic selection of gins,ales,cocktails etc. The staff are all lovely,polite and friendly. The food is great but sadly each and every time we are left frustrated by the length of time it takes to actually get your food. Today was a prime example, we ordered our food and over a hour later still no food. Don’t get me wrong when it arrived it was lovely but over a hour for fish &chips; seems a bit long to me. When we have gone in a larger group of 7/8 on a Saturday evening the wait is even longer. Again over a hour between starter to main. As I stated earlier this is our only gripe with otherwise a lovely pub with great food and staff. Please just employ a few more of them

Visited here with friends on recommendation from a family member as being really nice a la carte food. It’s a nice ish pub but very expensive food, felt more like a drinkers pub than a Castro pub. Food nice but not cheap, service slow at end to get and pay bill and we waited over half an hour for starters to come out.

Enjoyed several evenings here, as well as a very good Sunday lunch (which was served until 6pm) as we were staying close by so it was great to have such a nice pub with good beer and food without having to go far. The service was very good also.

welcoming staff, busy but efficient, it has a good menu selection good location on the out skirts of Bristol, not to far off of the main routes if passing through and need to stop for food, it also has good off street parking

Came here with my partner for the second time a couple of days ago. Fantastic atmosphere and lovely in this weather...but the main thing to write home about was the burger I had with handmade chips - wow! And with it being so reasonably priced too there is no reason not to go.

I can not recommend The Hollie Bush restaurant enough, my husband and I had a delicious meal. I would particularly recommend the fillet steak.

Visited on Friday 29th June and had a great meal. Arrived early got a drink and sat outside in our favourite sun trap. Ventured inside for our booked table and selected our starter, the Scotch Egg. Really tasty and not the first time we have had them. Our main courses were also excellent. Mine being the Steak with proper chips and the Chicken with Mozzarella that my wife had. Spoilt ourselves with dessert, again scrumptious. Would always recommend it here, but know everyone has different tastes, suits us grand.

Called in whilst returning home from Bristol , had heard good things about this pub. Staff were attentive and very friendly , and food arrived quite promptly. We had fish and chips , a large piece of fish and some hefty looking chips , with minted mushy peas. Would have been a nice meal apart from the fact all four of us had bones in our fish , which was very off putting. You would maybe expect one of the four portions to have had a bone or two , but all four !!. It was a shame , as could have been an enjoyable meal.

I wanted to take my Father out for a roast lunch for Father’s Day and having read the reviews felt lucky when I was able to book a table. The staff were delightful and very prompt but the food very disappointing, the beef although was supposed to have been cooked for 24 hours was chewy, the roast potatoes looked more like boiled potatoes and the whole dish was lukewarm, the veg were cooked well and a lovely selection and the cauliflower cheese was delicious and actually hot. I was asked by waitress if everything was ok so I appreciate that I could have said something but I didn’t want to make a fuss and upset my 96 year old Father.

Booked a table for Sunday lunch for 3 about a week in advance as we were told we may not get a table otherwise. The food was absolutely outstanding, especially the cauliflower cheese! All our questions were answered about the dishes and the lemon posset was by far the best dessert, do not miss!

My wife and I stopped in while on our honeymoon and had a great meal. The bartender answered all of our questions about local spirits and gave us great suggestions, and the food was phenomenal. Everyone there was very pleasant. I would definitely recommend this pub and hope to make it back someday.

We popped in for a mid week lunch, as we have been here before, and once again it lived up to expectations, I had Black Pudding Scotch Egg to start, which was very good, and followed with a small Ham, Egg and Chips, which for me was perfect, the Ham is perfect , the Chips are the best in the area, and the egg tasty ( which you cant say about many eggs ), my partner had the Soup to start, which she said was very tasty, and the large Ham Egg and Chips, which I could never have eaten, for pudding, I had Stick Toffee Pudding, and my partner had the Apple Crumble, both of which were excellent..The beer was good, the Gin of the week even better, and the staff, very good , friendly and attentive, what more can you ask.. I would recommend a visit to everyone..

Big fan of Bills in general and often pop in for brunch when in London for work. Visited the Bath branch during a weekend away with my partner, and have to say it didn’t disappoint. Service was top notch and food consistent with what I’d expect of Bills. All in all, deffo worth a visit- especially for a spot of brunch before visiting the Roman Baths or other nearby spots!

Chloe’s service and suggestions on the bar made my experience here 10x more enjoyable. She let me have a taster and suggested her favourite wine (merlot) and it was exactly what I was looking for. 10/10 would come back again

The lady was very welcoming,bacon role was nice but, order was wrong. The bill was wrong. Apart from that it was good. The only person working needs some training.

The seasonal 3-course menu (featuring more than three courses!) was a real culinary experience. Each course was magnificent and the whole dining experience was one of the very best. The service was impeccable, unpretentious, friendly and relaxed. The Olive Tree is definitely a restaurant we wish to revisit.
