King William Inn in Bath and North East Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I travel quite a lot with work and like to look for independent accommodation outside of Premier Inn and Travelodge.. I stayed here last night and I found it to be a SUPERB place to eat and stay at ! Bed and Breakfast was £74 and I had a lovely 3 course meal for £32. Genuinely, I have not found a better restaurant and accommodation throughout the UK for a business trip. The rooms are clean, classy, comfortable and such good value. This, alone, would guarantee a great review but then I went downstairs to the pub for dinner. It was truly delicious and full of flavour. I learnt that all of the menu is freshly and home made by the friendly and very talented chef and each course was piping hot. As a starter, I had the mushroom with goats cheese and onion jam. Main course was pork shoulder, mash with veg and incredible gravy ! Dessert was apple & cider crumble with custard. This was a 10/10 dinner and couldn't be faulted. All of the staff were incredibly welcoming. I visited on a Tuesday night and it was fully booked. It is obviously very popular and appears to be a hidden gem. Thank you to all of the team and I hope to revisit here in the future - this is a great place to stay at for a visit to Bath !

I dined here for and evening meal several months ago and found it very good so decided to try their Sunday lunch with family today. I am delighted that we did as the lunch was terrific, beautiful pulled brisket on a Yorkie, drizzled with a flavoursome jus, topped with horseradish went down very well for starters with all five of us. We all chose braised lamb for main and we were very pleased that we did, succulent, tasty lamb, roasties were hot, crispy and fluffy, all veg were properly cooked supported well with cauliflower cheese along with two vessels of extra gravy. (it makes a change from always asking for more) The meals are very fairly priced, decent portions and the staff are attentive and polite. We will certainly return to this wonderful country pub.

We went on a Saturday night . Two couples. The food was amazing, one of us was a coeliac and practically all food on the menu catered for this . Not expensive and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be going back soon.

A really friendly and extremely helpful staff made our stay for a wedding in the area a really enjoyable experience. The room was very clean and spacious. The breakfast was excellent with an extensive menu to choose from. We also had a light lunch which was delicious. If you are in the are I recommend a visit.

Mi lugar para ir cuando estoy en Bath con trabajo. . . Realmente es como estar en casa desde casa. . . Las habitaciones son increíbles, cómodas y tienen esos pequeños toques que te hacen sentir acogedor. . . Los chicos aquí son tan acogedores. . . Tuve que trabajar esta noche y me destriparon que no podía comer aquí. . . hasta la proxima vez. . ????

Went for my birthday and the food was absolutely delicious, the service was very friendly and the place is full of character. It is a bit small, so you need to book in advance.

Had to get up twice to ask for service and food was really low quality and really small amounts even though I ordered large.

We had a great experience, food was great and the staff were fantastic - a great place!!

Taken here for early Mother's Day treat. Food excellent and plentiful and service very good. I had pate for starter and pork loin for main. My son and daughter in law had mushroom and goat's cheese starter followed by lamb bourguignon and fish and chips respectively. Desserts were lemon meringue roulade, crumble and cheesecake. None of us could fault either quality or quantity. Also had an excellent bottle of white wine. Will definitely be making a return visit.

Small portions most appreciated .We have been coming to King William for years and allways been very happy with everything and will continue to come .

We eat here every six weeks when I visit my mum . We have never had a bad meal here over the past ten years. The food is tasty and very well cooked. The sunday roast is excellent value and as with all meals you can order a small or large portion depending on your appetite. Caters for vegetarians as well.

As per usual, excellent food and great service. Was really pleased that they allow dogs so we were able to let our dog lie under the table. The staff are always helpful and we really appreciated our waitress singing happy birthday to my mum.

Great food, friendly service. Look forward to coming back. Thank you!

We love the King William and have been going there for some years, mainly for lunch, so we have seen a number of different managers. We consider the current owners, the chef and his wife, are the best yet. The food is delicious and well served. My husband, a Yorkshire man who knows good fish and chips, says these are some of the best around, with light batter and tasty fish. Other dishes are full of flavour, which makes choosing one's meal difficult! The bar area is comfortable and friendly and there is a nice table in the window alcove, excellent for ladies who lunch. All in all, the King William is a lovely, well run establishment, whose staff give customers a delightful dining experience.

We had a fantastic evening, food was amazing and the staff are so welcoming and friendly, we'll definitely be going back soon.

Service friendly and efficient food excellent value for money well presented would deffinetly return as would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family

Very nice setting, very good service and the food was excellent, would definitely go back if I'm in the area again.

Yet again , we had a lovely time and our guests were well satisfied with the food and location, plus parking of course.

Really enjoyed our meal.good company and good food

Always perfect, great meal - great ambience and spotlessly clean.

We enjoy coming to the King William and the last visit did not disappoint us, thank you for looking after us so well.

We arrived on time and were received immediately and shown to our table. It was near the wood burning stove and was nice and cosy. the service was very efficient without being intrusive. the menu was varied with sufficient items to suit all tastes. the food was well cooked and very enjoyable. altogether a lovely experience of good food without being too fancy.

Fast service. Lovely staff. Roast beef was to die for; very tender & cooked pink. Vegetables cooked to perfection. Great lunch.

Second visit here, this time being 1 year Anniversary so was a special occasion. Food is always fantastic and great that you can choose a smaller portion. Staff are friendly and give good service. The soups are tasty, especially when we had the Red pepper last year.

Good service,very friendly staff. Good pub food in pleasant surroundings

Thank you for a great night we all had lovely food and it’s a great venue. Thank you

Good food, well served. Probably best at lunchtime as not well lit.

lamb to die for. great service, wine a tad expensive

very happy to go there any time - good menu - they do small portions as well which we like.

I've eaten here many times. The food is good and reliable and the service is quick, friendly and efficient. Noise, for someone like me with hearing aids, is a challenge with all the stone flooring and lovely solid stone walls, especially at lunchtime: pensioners can be very, very, very loud.

Always a warm welcome and excellent quality meals. Small portions also available which suits my elderly mother. Need to book to avoid disappointment

Lovely atmosphere and friendly service but didn’t fully live up to expectations. The Brie flatbread was little more than a sandwich thin. Would have expected home made dough for the price. Otherwise ok for a Saturday evening

This is our third visit with our family. Lovely meals every time. Very good service.

First visit, and very impressed with the service and food. Good value for money

Tom, Jess & the team we’re fantastic. Very attentive to our needs and kept the drinks flowing.

A great evening for my Birthday, good food, good service, I'd recommend this to everybody

Lovely meal, good service, pleasant staff. Ticked all the right boxes.

Food is 1st class and staff very welcoming and friendly. Have been there 3 times in last 3 weeks with different friends and everyone said that they would be back. No complaints at all.

We love this place, food always very good as is the service. Top marks !!

My husband And I had the ale pie it was over cooked ,the pastry was rock hard and the meat was very tough . This is the third meal we have had over there with friends and we have decided never to return. I don’t know if it has changed hands but the chef needs to get his act together.

seems to have been a complete change of bar staff since our last visit, but they are still friendly and helpful. Think it`s still the same chef since the food is of similar style and still great, so will certainly still keep coming from time to time.

Great service and excellent food! Lovely to sit by an open fire, Varied menu and the food was lovely.

Lovely meal in cosy surroundings. Well worth the visit

Good food, good service, good food, good price. All good

Very good service although we had to wait a few minutes for our table despite having booked. Unfortunately there is no seating in the bar area. Good choice of food and very pleased that all the main courses come in small or normal portions. Sensible prices. Very busy. Booking is essential.

Sunday lunch with family. Good, honest roast lunches enjoyed by all. Able to talk without distraction of loud piped music or rowdy bar customers. Well situated table. Goo, prompt service. Marginally more pricey than similar venues. Well kept London Pride.

Very nice food, suitable for a range of appetites, and great service.

I've used this venue many times fro business lunches and it is very good with fresh food and reasonable service and good staff. The building has a lot of stone flooring, so can be a bit noisy if the coffee machine is going, which is not soo good for a deaf person wtih hearing aids like me. If you are deaf, get a seat away from the coffee machine as, like all such contraptions, it makes quite a racket when being used.

This was a family get-together that was difficult to arrange because of prior commitments, distance needing to be travelled by some people and the complete deafness of one of our group. It should have been for 8 people but 2 had to cancel at the last minute due to illness. The staff were very understanding, went out of their way to meet our needs and were pleasant and friendly when it would have been easy not to be. The food was excellent - tender lamb, tasty fresh vegetables served separately and not overcooked, a vegetarian option - at an exceptionally reasonable price. It was also possible to opt for a 'small' version, which suited the two 80 year olds in our party. They were then able to enjoy one of the tempting deserts! Pleasant ambiance if a little raucous at the bar by 2.00 pm. All of us would thoroughly recommend the King William Inn.

Looked after as always really pleasant staff

Enjoyed a lovely lunch with a friend this week. Great to have the option of smaller portions of the main courses enabling us to have a sweet.

King William always serves tasty, well balanced meals in pleasant surroundings. The staff are always attentive and friendly. Certainly a pub to recommend and return to.

The King William is one of my favourite places to eat. The service is always good and staff are very friendly and attentive. The food never fails to disappoint. Highly recommend the steaks and white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake.

We have had lots of visits here for lunch, drinks and various functions. Always great service, and faultless food at a reasonable price.

Felt right at home. Staff were welcoming. <br />Clean in all areas. Rooms clean and decor was outstanding.

As always a friendly welcome, great service and a lovely meal. What else could you want?

First time my friends and I have been and we were not disappointed. Friendly greeting from the staff who also gave attentive service. Food was lovely, even pleased some of our fussy eaters in our group. The white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake was delicious. I will definitely be going back

I would have given the pub a higher rating but we were very disappointed on Sunday. I&#039;d booked a table for 3pm through Opentable for my birthday. On arrival we were told that the kitchen closed at 3! They said &quot;As we were in there they would serve us&quot; We were asked to order quickly and then 5 minutes later, even though my son hadn&#039;t arrived, we were told our food was ready and that they could keep his under the hotplate. The food was good but the experience was very rushed and uncomfortable.<br />I don&#039;t believe that the pub should take bookings for tables at 3pm if the kitchen closes at 3.<br />It wasn&#039;t the experience I&#039;d hoped for.

Not much food on the plate and expensive drinks are expensive too glass of wine £10.00

Excellent food and service.<br />We always choose this place for family meals.

Went lunchtime midweek. Quick service good food, nice that small portions are available.

It was actually my wife and friend who visited and, as regulars, I am assured that everything was as good as usual.

We know that we can always rely on a good meal at the King William.

As usual, another wonderful lunch. Tom and Jess both know I adore liver and bacon and had kept a portion back for me.<br /><br />My husband had the chicken and thyme pate which was delicious and the cheesy chips were quickly devoured by our daughter.

Delicious food, but maybe not have quite so much cream. Excellent service and ambience.

Another excellent experience at King William at Tilney. Food was exceptional and service was good as usual. We were meeting friends for over 60 years and they all said how good their meals were.<br />I can fully recommend this venue.

Lovely visit, well looked after, tasty food. Glad we booked. Will definitely be back.

Teníamos grandes esperanzas para este lugar ya que siempre está ocupado y tiene una buena reputación. El personal era amable y eficiente, pero desafortunadamente la comida no era demasiado.Tuvimos pan y aceite para comenzar. El pan estaba seco y viejo, el aceite sabía a aceite vegetal barato. Los platos principales estaban bien, pero esperaba más por el precio.

Greeted with a smile the staff were attentive and polite all night the food was lovely great choice of drinks will definitely be back

This has been our "pub" of choice for an evening meal for many years. Recently had a family dinner with ten and every meal was excellent and with generous portions. You can't go wrong.

Llegamos tarde y todavía estaban sirviendo comida. La comida no tardó en llegar, pero estaba claramente cocinada fresca y era de alta calidad. La camarera que nos atendió fue muy amable y nos recomendó cosas para hacer y ver en Bath, donde íbamos a visitar.

Fantastic food very highly recommended. All. Three courses were a delight.<br /><br />Will defo go again .... and soon

Visited here for father’s day lunch and we were not let down the staff were extremely polite and very attentive.<br />Food was exceptional the Roast Beef was beautifully cooked! Highly recommend this place it’s the 3rd time we have been here and have never been disappointed.

Excellent food, service and value as usual. On this occasion, a couple who had not been to the King William before, came with us and they were extremely pleased to have been introduced to it. You have gained two more fans.

We were staying at the Inn and so had our evening meal and breakfast here. Staff were all very friendly and the food was lovely. Very nice decor and atmosphere.

Lovely pub although stone floor makes it a bit noisy. The service is friendly and attentive and food is served without too long a wait. They are very good with my son who has learning disabilities. The menu has a good range supplemented by specials and vegetables are always good. One thing that is very welcome is that they offer smaller portions of main courses which is great for those with smaller appetites. The cheesecake was delicious. The crumble is served in silly shallow dishes with a jug of custard so it is impossible to pour on the custard. My son finds this particularly difficult but they were happy to bring his in a proper pudding dish. One thing that was particularly thoughtful was that they rang in advance to say that there was a problem with Visa payments so that we were forewarned. Lovely evening and we will be back again.

We had a very pleasant meal at the King William, although my husband was hoping to have one of your lush pies (I had told him about them from a previous visit of mine, but the very nice young lady waiting on tables said if we ring ahead next time that you could certainly do a pie, so we will be back.

Excellent food with good service. A lovely evening.

Estábamos llegando tarde a nuestro largo viaje. ¡Había dejado las llaves de la caravana en casa y había tenido que regresar la mayor parte del tiempo!Paramos para poder usar el baño de mujeres. Las áreas de restaurantes estaban ocupadas pero el personal dijo que podían encontrarnos una mesa para dos si queríamos una comida y si elegíamos sabiamente podían conseguir que el chef finalizara una comida rápidamente.El personal, el chef y la comida son los más valorados, mereciendo la propina más alta de lo normalPuede que no estemos en la zona por muchos años más, pero recordaremos el King William Inn y trataremos de desviarnos

Lovely birthday lunch on Sunday for my mother&#039;s 85th. Service was friendly and helpful. Good choice of food and especially welcomed the generous selection of vegetables. The cauliflower cheese was especially good. Only criticism is that because of the stone floor etc it is rather noisy making conversation difficult.

Good value for money. Of particular note is that many of the dishes come in two sizes. Great if you are trying to shed a few pounds!! Friendly staff. Good parking.

Service was excellent. Food very good, if maybe a tad on the expensive side, but no complaints.

Good food excellent service would highly recommend<br />4

The King William just gets better and better. The food is beautifully cooked and presented without ever straying into pretentious &quot;gastro-pub&quot; territory. The simple and tasteful ambiance is perfect and the service is friendly and prompt. By keeping the menu short but doing everything well, the Chef strikes exactly the right note. The only problem is that it is now so popular you really do have to book ahead most nights of the week. We love it.

Busy pub but very efficient and friendly staff. Food excellent. Will not hesitate and go again

We visit the king Williams at least every 5 weeks and the food is outstanding. The staff are friendly and nothing is too much bother and they really look after myself and my friends. Absolutely love it here

Delicious food, well made and presented, great service.

We always get a good meal at the King William and have no hesitation in booking. One of the things that I always comment on is the fact that even if there are 12 of us in the party they never cease to bring all our food out together. Nobody is kept waiting. Very, very good service given by friendly staff and the food is always first class.

I took my parents for Sunday lunch for my Dads birthday he was 86, we all cleared our plates, which I think says it all

We have been to the King William on many occasions and have never had a bad experience. The food, service and ambience are consistently good. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anybody. One of the main reasons we like it is because most items on the menu can be ordered in 2 sizes so that if you don’t have a huge appetite the smaller version is more than adequate.

Excellent location just on the outskirts of Bath with B &amp; B also, very friendly staff with excellent service. A very good menu with a wide variety of choice. All three courses were outstanding. I would rate this the best restaurant around.

We had a lovely family evening in the restaurant to celebrate my husbands 60th, the food and service was excellent and the staff all very friendly. We have been here a few times now and it never disappoints always an enjoyable experience.

Excellent evening - good quality well cooked and tasty food with exceptional service.

We felt the portions were very small for cost I had fish pie and the other two had stroganoff . <br />I will go again as I feel they were probably too busy to bother as we did not have Xmas meal and the food in the past k<br />Has always been excellent .

friendly greeting, shown to the table or asked if we preferred a drink at the bar first. A nice table, there was a good atmosphere. Attentive service without being overbearing, good menu choice, very reasonable. Overall a really good meal, tasty food, interesting dishes and very well priced

It was a little cold in the restaurant, the food was good and well priced, the staff we me were lovely.

Delicious food and good service <br />Great for lunches or evening dinners

Excellent food, friendly service, cosy atmosphere. Will certainly return.

The food was excellent as always. One of the waitresses had such a miserable face almost the whole time but her colleagues made up for it particularly one of them. It&#039;s a lovely place, can&#039;t wait to be there again.

Could not be happier to have this as our local. Staff are always so friendly and helpful and the food is yummy. Some half portions too if you have a small appetite.
