Menu Gordon Jones in Bath and North East Somerset

A vibrant atmosphere livened by excellent music choices & Gordon Jones’ own special sense of humour. Most importantly, brilliant taster menu and a great wine flight. My best eating out experience in Bath so far. Interestingly, this restaurant is slightly out from the city centre, located in the vibrant suburb of Bear Flats. It’s easily reached though & well worth it. Thanks… we’ll be back!

Great spot for a top notch dining experience. We had the courses explained for each one and could not fault any of them. The atmosphere is lively and the music was to my taste, not sure about other diners. The drinks, in the main, blended well with the plates we experienced. After discussion, neither I nor my wife could rank the dishes as they all had something special. Well done to Gordon and his team. A splendid dining experience, we are actively searching for something the similar locally. If we head back to Bath, we will definetely rebook.

A very intimate setting with only 16 diners. Perfect ambiance and charm. Each dish was absolutely stunning, full of flavour. We have been to many 1 and 2 Michelin star restaurants and this was just as good, if not better. £100 a head for the tasting menu seems ridiculously cheap compared to other venues and we will definitely be coming back.

WOW!! From the moment we arrived this place blew me away - the food was incredible and a delight on all the senses, it not only looked fantastic, it smelt and tasted unreal! Every course was exceptional and you could see the passion that went into creating the menu. We loved the playlist in the background, the intimate setting and the wine recommendation - I would 100% recommend and would love to return if we're ever back in Bath!

We have wanted to eat at MGJ since it opened and a thoughtful and generous gift made that happen. What an experience. We were greeted by Gordon himself and invited into the cosy and comfortable dining room. Every course was exceptional, most presented and described by one of the chefs, and the imagination and creativity in each was incredible. Service was impeccable and friendly throughout and an added bonus was a table in sight of the amazingly calm and efficient kitchen. Great wine at reasonable prices too. Could not recommend the experience more.

The food here was really delicious and me and my family enjoyed our dinner here. The food had uniquely delightful flavors. We appreciate the service provided, which was excellent.

Having a toddler means that my partner and I rarely go out together alone. We were gifted vouchers for this place and l had no idea that it was a tasting menu. This is not something my partner and I have ever experienced and after the we had finished we both agreed this was one of our best dining experiences. Each dish tasted exquisite and each one beautifully presented. The staff and atmosphere were perfect. Would highly recommend 👌

Can't recommend this place enough, great food and service.

We visited for dinner when my girlfriend was over from the US. The food was superb and the accompanying wines were really inspired. The whole experience was made exceptional by the wonderful humour and excellent service. It was perfect.

First trip to Bath since February, and this is still my fave UK restaurant, 6th visit in 18 months. Combining the bread (and butter) and soup is obviously simple, but as they were previously served separately, a new one for us, and blindingly, obviously, brilliant. Saturday lunch this time, and apart from the soup, the pate dish and especially the tortellini, were stand outs. Amelia did her usual (superb) thing with the wine pairing, and the sound-track only featured 1 Gerry Cinnammon song 🤣. Alas, we already have several trips lined up during the rest of 2024, so probably won’t be back until 2025 - looking forward to the best winter warmer food in January or February. 👍.

My girl friend booked me a surprise birthday meal at menu Menu Gordon Jones and wow it did not disappoint. Gordon welcomed us into his restaurant and was extremely friendly and rather funny! The food was absolutely impeccable and it was a really nice touch that the chefs would come and explain each dish of the tasting menu. The service from all the staff was also impeccable and they were very delightful and friendly. The ambience of his restaurant was something I’ve never experienced before from the decor of the restaurant to the toilet! Yes the toilet it’s most definitely the best toilet I have been into in my entire life. Many thanks to Gordon and his team for such a fantastic experience and also my girlfriend for taking me there ❤️ You have to try his food as it’s absolutely sublime! Oh nearly forgot to mention the rhubarb water it was like a thousand angels dancing on my tongue 😜

Menu Gordon Jones is outstanding! We had an exquisite tasting menu and finished off with the most amazing whisky recommended by the chef. A truly delightful evening. Wishing Gordon every success!

It's our 4th visit and it's phenomenal! I've been to many great restaurants but this is one of my favourites. It was so good that I made another booking before I left.

Simply the best food we have ever eaten. If we could have given more than 5 stars then we would. Front of house team were so friendly and professional, and the magic coming from the kitchen was joyous. The price meant this was a special occasion for us but honestly, it was worth every penny. It's relaxed yet professional. The perfect mix. Spend the money. Eat here!

Made a detour on our way down to Devon just to eat here, and so glad we did! Fantastic food, great service and the surprisingly best taco of my life

A place that never disappoints and a regular pilgrimage for us. Every course faultless. Imaginative presentation and menu.

An amazing culinary experience. Gordon is a genius and his team are fantastic. Memorable food, served with style, wit and grace in an intimate, imaginative and humourous setting. Would I visit again? In a heartbeat!

Great concept restaurant in bath, London. Is by appt only and has a set menu which rotates based on availability of local fresh ingredients

Fabulous restaurant, food and service. Faultless and delicious. Excellent that it was one menu for all. No fuss and everything super fresh.

Hands down the best dining experience I’ve had. (Albeit I’ve been here numerous times over numerous years). From the first visit in 2020 to my most recent in May this year it’s consistently delivered not only in flavour but surprise, quality and the atmosphere is second to none. Gordon has the most amazing humour which as a Welsh girl I can’t help but love. His passion for food you can see in every single detail. Will be a forever customer!

My daughter took me to this amazing restaurant as birthday treat! Foods were tasty and original ! Presentation was fun and fantastic.. All staffs were very friendly, smiling and superb !! I will definitely go again next time when I visit at Bath..

Another AMAZING feast at the wonderful Menu Gordon Jones!! We’re lucky to have eaten here several times over the years and the attention to detail in the food, presentation and whole restaurant is second to none. Always such a treat to go. Thank you to Gordon and the whole team!

Our first time but guaranteed it won't be our last. Not only was the food spectacular, but the staff were amazingly friendly. Having the title chef serve and explain some of the dishes (with zero stuffiness and good humour) gave it a truly personal touch. HIGHLY recommended.

An absolutely wonderful experience as ever and a real gem for Bath! Innovative and creative dishes with charming and attentive staff! Already looking forward to the next time!

An honest review of our experience. Our daughter bought us a taster menu for £180, which overall as ok, but far from what I would say: 'excellent' or even very good. The music was very loud and not in keeping. The surroundings eclectic, but not in a good way and very tight in terms of space. The wine list was very limited unless you wanted to take out a mortgage. Why does high cost have to equate to high valve -such ridiculous prices. You can get reasonably priced wine that's very good below £25 or £30. However, the bad taste in our mouth was the additional £20 we had to pay due to rising cost of produce. That's an insult and they should be ashamed. Do prices come down if the cost of produce drops?? The only redeeming aspect was the staff who were very attentive and very helpful.

Absolute banger of an experience. Hit after hit of dishes like they were dropping their greatest hits all night. Service was next level, food was double nectar and the chat from the kitchen staff was a hellova treat at the table throughout the night. That’s how you restaurant. Can I give 6 stars? Thanks team!

This is the go to place to spend any special occasion (or for any fabulous night out for that matter!). Gordon and Amelia are fabulous hosts, your taste buds get the full on experience and the wine flight is a wonderful addition perfectly complimenting Gordon gastronomic delights.! True perfection !

This place....is insane! How a chef can produce SEVEN courses, served blind, and achieve perfection, is beyond my comprehension. And I'm far from easy...I'm proper pernickety about my food. But the food in this place doesn't have any flaws. NOT ONE! Standing ovation for chef Jones please!

Subliminal food. Excellent service. Great atmosphere and ambience. first visited here in 2020, and have been trying to return ever since (we don’t live in the area). Finally persuaded my husband to take a return mini-break in Bath, and the first reservation I made, even before I booked a hotel, was menu Gordon Jones! Sometimes when you return to a place you’ve previously enjoyed, it’s not the same as you remembered. Not the case here! It was every bit as wonderful as I remembered. Gordon is a rare talent, and his food combinations are exquisitely delicious. Their wine is also second to none. I really cannot recommend this place any more highly.

We have been going to MGJ a few times over the years and usually the food is gorgeous. However, every so often some of the course were not that great or too salty. The wine menu is short which is not bad in it-self but the wine choice is odd and some of it rather poor.

That was a wonderful surprise tasting menu! The dishes were fun and imaginative, the service was stellar, and the atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing.

Fabulous. Great atmosphere, food is out of this world. I went for a meal with my business partner and soup to nuts, the best meal I’ve had in yonks. Michelin need to starting handing out the stars. If I compare this to the 1 Michelin star French classic restaurants in London, it’s honestly light years ahead. Creative and inspired cooking, delivered with a personal touch direct from the head chef. The size of the restaurant helps, I can’t think of any dining experience where you are face to face with head chef and multiple times during the meal. It’s not only a lovely touch, it adds to the experience hugely. Highly recommend! 💯 100% 5*

Service is excellent. Food too, however I feel it's nowadays rather overcharged with 100£ per head just for the 7 courses. You get only small portions which fine, but the pork dish for instant contained only one very small piece, size of a pepperoni slice, delicious though. Disappointing was the wine. We tried 2 different reds and one white and did not particular liked any. Also not sure about the big live sex show sign. We have been in this restaurant a few times. Not sure whether we will go again as value for money is not convincing.

Friendly atmosphere and OK overall. Nice mix of tasting courses. Unfortunately, some were rather salty and spoiled the overall experience.

I cannot express how much we enjoyed our time at MGJ. The atmosphere and decor in the restaurant is amazing. Not pretentious at all - very chilled out vibe where it's all about the food. Service was impeccable and the food was 10/10. I can't wait to visit again. Special mention for the eggy bread and decent music!!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

One of the most amazing meals you will ever experience.

What a fabulous experience, a small knit team with exceptional front of house and cooking skills. Each dish was crafted with care and delivered with passion; the wine flight a wonderful accompaniment and the brilliantly eclectic music flight was thrown in for free.

Never fails to disappoint. The food is incredible and takes your taste buds on a journey. Each course is a surprise and all brilliant. trust the chef!! best restuarant in Bath

Next level Dinning experience. The food is is to die for , the service was bob on and the drinks kept coming. Chasing the flight of wines to go with the tasting menu was a winning move. We love this place and the staff. Also best playlist of any restaurant ever top work

Excellent tasting menu in an unpretentious and relaxed setting

Our meal at Menu Gordon Jones was stunning. The food and menu choices were delicious and beautifully presented- we loved that it was all a surprise too. The service here was amazing, what began with a warm welcome from the chef himself opening the door for us to escape the rain, to the brilliant waitress, it was all flawless. A trendy and cool vibe in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere with unparalleled attention to detail. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Funky, friendly and fantastic food

The best culinary experience I’ve ever had.

I don't know where to start! exceptional from start to finish. my wife took me here for my 50th, I do like my food, and this venue did not disappoint, from start to finish we were at ease and enjoyed every mouthful. decent people serving us pieces of art on our plate, explaining every dish. we left with a smile on our faces and a belly full of food. we will be back. keep being you and doing what you do!

This place is an absolute must visit if you like great food, great atmosphere and great people. My wife and I went as a treat whilst in Bath for the weekend and it was honestly the best meal and restaurant experience we have ever had. We will be back!!

Surprise for my Husband's 50th. Amazing food. Loved it. Service was great.

It's almost a year since I've been at this place and it remains the best food I've ever tasted so had to come back and leave a review, only right.

By far best restaurant I have been to in a long while. I own an independent restaurant and know how hard it is. If in Bath, this is a must

Amazing place to eat! Great atmosphere. Great food. Great service. Exceeded our expectations. We will be back. Loved it.

We love this place. I remember coming way back when it first opened and we had the most amazing chocolate bread course, it sounds weird but it worked so well. We have been back many times and the staff, food, and of course the legend Gordon never fail to impress.

JUST GO - substantial, high quality, imaginative and delicious food. All courses were explained by the chefs, we did the wine pairing too, which included a number of wines we didn't know. Probably the best 1 star we have been to anywhere , not just in uk. My only suggestion would be to slow the time between the 7 courses a touch. We will definitely be back. Service faultless.

The chef very humbly welcomed us in. The atmosphere was very welcoming and cozy, and the decor happy and rebellious. Excellent music, open kitchen, the bathroom sarcastic and hilarious. Food: divine. The finest layering, fresh and not pretentious whatsoever. With one sentence: fine anti-conformist dining. We are DEFINITELY going back.

A five star, fine dining experience with a staff that isn’t into themselves. Flavors were mixed and varied, the presentations were delightful, and the service was superb. Too good for Michelin.

This was a gift for my wife and I. It was a great experience from being greeted by the chef at the door to being served by a kitchen chef with details of what you are about to eat. A small intimate venue the drinks are very reasonable which was a surprise but the meal was as much as we've ever spent on food. It was as good as food should be. And to be honest was 90% of what I would expect anywhere, short of McDonald's, but definitely in any self respecting restaurant. However you never get it and you have to pay this amount to have a decent evening. The staff are all friendly and can give you all the attention you need without ever being too attentive. I'd say it's about as perfect as you could want. It's a lot of money and I find it difficult to suggest it's good value unless your hobby is dining out. It was an amazing gift and exceptional because of that fact. As a monthly treat, I wish I could afford it.

3 years ago my wife and I had the pleasure of discovering MGJ during our vacation which then became our go to restaurant on each possible visit, the food was the most created with equal flavors. Unfortunately, this last experience (Sept 2023) showed a different creative direction and although the flavors were still there with each course, the creativity and originality had disappointedly diminished that we cannot now justify the overall experience against the $$$$ - staff are still extremely friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating, especially Gordon

Had such a lovely meal. Great service, amazing and inventive food (the mackerel and rhubarb was heavenly) and the chefs take pride in their work, are happy to chip in with service and have a chat about their food.

THE best restaurant experience we have ever had. Would not hesitate to recommend!

Excellent meal 10 out of 10 !!! lovely . One of the best restaurants i have had the pleasure of visiting and eating here highly recommend, Great service friendly, feel really welcome and look after

What a wonderful culinery experience. Every course was superb. Service was wonderful too. Thanks to everyone involved.

Quite possibly the best restaurant in Bath

Never had a taster menu before so uncertain what to expect. Eight courses which were a surprise and incredibly delicious with each plate being described by the chef. Each course was accompanied with wine again described by a very knowledgeable wine waitress. If in Bath again would like to go again.

Totally different menu to 2020 when last here. Fabulous. Exciting, different, and engaged staff who clearly love what they're delivering.

We had the surprise tasting menu (it's all they offer) with the flight of wine. An amazing experience from start to.finish. I've never experienced food like it, the whole meal was eaten with a smile. The pace is leisurely and the service unfussy with food delivered to the table by the chefs. The wines matched perfectly to each dish. The stand out dish was the chicken and prawn tortelini. I'd eat there every month if I could afford to!

Best food and overall experience in bath !

Amazing food and staff were super attentive! 100% would come back! Only thing I'd say is please remove the trippy mirror from the bathroom above the sink and just have a normal one there.

Outstanding. We had the tasting menu which was incredible. You could tell the care chef takes and he makes an effort to get to know your party and make you feel special

10/10 for atmosphere, food and hosts! Will certainly be going again

Unbelievable experience from start to end. Gordon is a real showman from the explanation of the food to the tastefully decorated interior. Not to mention the creative and well-thought out menu of delicious and exciting flavours. It was all over too quickly and I can’t wait to go back.

Doesn’t get any better than this! Amazing experience, every time. The food was incredible and each course was so flavoursome! Thank you for a fantastic afternoon. Exciting ingredients.

An exotic taster menu which is a novel way of celebrating special occasions. Perhaps the service was a bit too fast but food and friendliness were faultless.

I had a surprise treat for my Birthday. I wanted to go here for a very long time. It was amazing. From the minute we arrived it was a treat. We did the 9 course taster menu with wine flight. ( lunch time) The venue is quirky, the chefs knowledgeable and Amelia friendly and really helped us understand the wines. Highly recommend. This is a must xx

We loved our first visit to MGJ. The Decadent December menu is delicious! Amazing flavours in a cosy and festive atmosphere. Gordon and his team are welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. Perfect place to celebrate 🥂

Excellent food and service. The 9-course taster menu is to die for.

After years of hearing others say how special it was I finally went. We are so lucky Gordon Jones has chosen Bath to set up and stay running his own little place, outside the centre of town. For me its sustained reputation, atmosphere, location and size make this one of the most important cultural places of Bath in recent years, since the Spa was built (in my opinion!). Most of Bath's history is about the very old, so its special to have something a bit newer to be proud of. We've very lucky to have you and a lovely team, thanks all.

Absolutely amazing food, our favourite restaurant in Bath. Fantastic service given by a lovely bunch of people. Wish we still lived here so we could go every day!!

A spectacular culinary delight; cannot recommend it highly enough!!!

Wonderful tasting menu for our first visit.

Incredible experience throughout! Amelia is a really lovely host from answering my email to welcoming me at the restaurant itself. Chef Gordon is just such a character with all his funny stories and comments. Most importantly the food were excellent! My favourite dishes were the Rabbit & Beans and...the Bag of Bread (sourdough with bloody Mary butter & artichoke syrup and fish roe butter (?)) I took the non-alcoholic flight which was absolutely delicious and went well with the dishes. I left the restaurant a very happy customer. I will definitely return if I ever visit Bath again!

Absolutely incredible. Nothing could of been better.

Absolutely incredible food and wine

Phenomenal food, wine and service - 11/10

Impeccable service, the best service we've received from any restaurant we've been to ever! Food and wine pairing were delicious Friendly restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, not at all pretentious

Amazing food and amazing service.

Not only is the food UNREAL... this restaurant has the friendliest waiter and waitress I have ever experienced. Gordon and Amelia are sooo friendly, welcoming and fun! Best restaurant I've been to in a while, and I eat out a lot :)

Amazing, amazing, amazing! My wife and I enjoyed the tasting menu and paired wines on a special night for our 10th wedding anniversary. Every morsel was exquisite with the most amazing due care and attention put into every bite and sip. From ingredients to the sensations on the pallet everything was sensational. To top things off I even got a secret seconds of the lamb. Thank you so much guys for an amazing night to remember. Can’t wait to return James & Louise.

Menu Gordon Jones was very welcoming, the food and service was exceptional and extremely tasty. The wine flight matched the food and the mystery made the evening a night to remember. This was without a doubt the best food weI have eaten in our entire lives. We can't wait to book again.

Incredible meal. Absolutely loved it. Amazing food bur relaxed atmosphere and great music!

What an experience! Fantastic food in a very relaxed atmosphere. Not pretentious at all, great music and casual attire. Staff were fantastic.

What an amazing experience. Excellent 7-course tasting menu accompanied with their wine flight delivered by exemplary service, what was there not to like? OK, I questioned the eel (in my head), but it was actually really nice. You must book, and best ro arrive a few minutes early so service can begin on time.

Excellent again, as usual!! 😃 Superb menu, superb service!! 😊 Still hitting the spot!! Great!!

Would give this place more stars if it was possible. Just had the most excellent tasting menu. The staff are friendly, fun and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend this place enough. We will be back x ♥

Hands down the best dining experience of my 40 year life and has ruined any future dining experiences! The atmosphere is epic! The little touches of the decor and the informal yet professional and friendly service is the best I have ever had! Where else will the chef owner open the door for you, bring your food and take the time for small talk! INCREDIBLE!

Absolutely fantastic experience. The food was great, as was the wine flight pairings, but I liked the fact every team member was involved with bringing out one item and explaining it. Bonus 6th star for some awesome music being played!

A very special place. 9 course tasting menu amazing.

Unbelievable experience! Every single course was delicious, service was excellent and this place just proved that the wine pairing makes a huge difference! Amazing for a special meal!

Fantastic food, fantastic service, second to none. Thanks for a fantastic evening guys, see you again soon.

What an amazing find! I can't believe the awesome food, fantastic experience and top class service. Amelia was great so knowledgable about everything and made you want to ask things as well. I will def be recommending and coming here again!

Truly unique. Great atmosphere, awesome food. Highly recommend.

One of Bath’s best restaurants. Very surprised to see it not have a Michelin star as it’s certainly at that standard with the food and service. Some of the dishes were very inventive and not your usual “modern French cuisine”, which made it refreshing. It was also a nice touch to have the chef come out to deliver some of the dishes and talk about them. Certainly made the whole experience more personal.

A unique restaurant serving unique food. Looking forward to visiting again.
