Atmosphere was great and some of the staff were very friendly but we one member of the staff was quite rude and seemed irritated. Maybe she was just having a bad day but as someone who works as a server at a restaurant I was a bit appalled at her demeanor. Additionally we went as soon as they opened so it wasn’t like they were in a middle of a rush or anything. As soon as we walked in, out of curiosity, I asked if we could be seated outside and the staff member said “no, we don’t have any staff to serve upstairs.” Which is completely fine but the same server came to give us our check and I asked if we could split the bill. She then asked if we want to give a service tip or not so I said yes and then she stood there in silence staring at me for 10ish seconds. Then with a condescending smile she asked “can you do the math” so she then watched me pull out my calculator and do the math for her as we paid. No “thank you” no “have a nice day” or anything. I may be overanalyzing the interaction but my friend and I walked out quite sad. We felt as though we did something to upset her. I don’t know if the question I asked her but her tone and attitude that made it seem as though she absolutely hated her job and was upset with us for whatever reason.

We were looking for a local British tea house and we liked the ambience of Sally Lunn’s. The Tess’s were good, scones lovely. It had a unique character. Not the typical chain cafe like Nero or Pret. Worth stopping by if you are in Bath, UK.

Tried the most famous Sallys Bun. Food was really tasty, especially loved the trencher. Staffs were attentive and good customer service. The museum is good to know about the shop history which was intresting. Only negative I felt was some foods are just overpriced like the scones . £12.50 for two scone is a little too much.

Really NOT impressed with the food. I’m impressed it’s so old and still around! But I think there’s too much hype. I got the chicken bun and it was OK. Zero flavor. Really disappointing. Was the chicken boiled? The bun was a giant hunk of dry bread, buttered. Maybe I should have tried the lemon one? But at 15 pounds (USD $20), I thought it was a rip off. Cash grab for tourists. I was still hungry afterwards. That said, the staff was great! So fast! So kind! I only waited 2 minutes to get a table, even on a busy Saturday! Also, the place is teeny tiny, but very cute. I think if you wanna tick this box, you should get a sweet bun with a tea.

In the basement, there's a nicely designed free mini-exhibition and shop. On the ground floor and upstairs, there's a tearoom where Sally Lunn's buns with tea are available. You definitely have to try them; they're absolutely delicious (we had them with clotted cream and strawberry jam and the lemon curd version, both of which are highly recommended). The ambiance is rustic, as you'd expect from a house in Bath that's oldest.

The building is Georgian so duck on the stairs and expect tight spaces. Sally lunn buns are just bread... Nice bread but there's no magic I'm told. I'm allergic to diary so I had a mushroom pie that was really good. Staff were very good about the allergy and helpful in general considering the place was very busy.

#TLDR - Come here for the vibe not for the food. Lovely atmosphere and excellent soft buns. However, other than that things are quite basic. We ordered their set dinner menu: Their tea is very normal (grounded leaves, not loose leaves so you can imagine the quality), the toasted bun's texture was great, but the taste was carried mainly by the butter. The greens on the sides were not seasoned too. The main was absolutely bland. I will not comment on the boiled vegetables but the braised beef and mushroom was really disappointing. It felt like they left all their salt on the table rather than in the kitchen itself. Brownie was more of a fudge rather than a brownie, it tasted good anyway. I would recommend heading down to the basement where there is a mini exhibit.

Every time I'm in Bath, I try to visit Sally Lunn's Eating House - the home of the famous Sally Lunn bun. These light, brioche-style buns date back to the 17th century and are a true local speciality, served with both sweet and savoury toppings. This time, I chose the Welsh Rarebit Special: a savoury bun topped with buttery mushrooms, dry-cured smoked back bacon, and homemade chutney. Great flavours and a real taste of Bath!

Delicious - had the Sally Lunn Bunn cream tea! Bit overpriced at £12 but you can't get them anywhere else - very light but filling. It was busy so felt a bit tight for space as it's very old building but there's 3 floors so maybe the top floor might be better for calmer atmosphere. Service was very good and quick.

Sally Lunn's is super cute and quaint. My husband and I visited today and had a lovely time. The tearoom is a little cramped but we came at a quiet time so it was OK. The ladies that served us were attentive and ensured that our needs were met. We ordered two half buns, my husband went for Welsh Rarebit Special and I went for Ham and Piccalilli. They looked amazing when they arrived, 10/10 on the presentation. They were both tasty but they are basically overpriced sandwiches with too much bread. The bread is mediocre, just a large, white bap. To be honest I found there was too much bread. A cute place to visit to say you've been but basically a large, overpriced, over breaded sandwich. One between two is plenty unless you're starving!

Excellent service at this place. After standing in queue for 45min, the staff's politeness, friendliness and efficiency is definitely appreciated. In terms of food, I'm not sure if I would've missed out on much if I'd skipped it entirely and just gone down to the shop to grab a bun, and toasted it at home! We ordered 3 half buns: French Toast (unremarkable), Milk Jam (decent), and Welsh Rarebit (nice). The Americano coffee was more of a Filter Coffee. Worth a visit when you're in Bath, only if you're interested in its history, and if you like doing slightly quirky things when you visit new places.

Whilst the historical aspect is impressive, the length of time queuing vs. the quality of food was not entirely worth it. It was expensive for what it was.

Tried the cinnamon bun with friends as we felt we had to try something from here, with it being one of Bath's oldest buildings! I wasn't expecting much as I thought it'd just be a simple bun but to my surprise, it was delicious and had a lovely texture! My friend also tried the Sally Lunn tea blend, which she said was really nice. Seemed to be a popular place as people were queueing outside. We came at a less busier time, so we didn't have to wait too long. It was such a cute and cozy environment - it sort of felt like a little tea party room. They also have a small museum inside where you can buy the spreads and buns.

Sorry it was disappointing, I visited today, don’t get me wrong the cafe with it’s history is great, service was great, but I was really disappointed with what is essentially half a bread cake. We ordered the salt beef bun, and the cream tea. The salt beef came which was half of a bread cake with 3 small slices of beef and 3 slices of pickle, it was underwhelming for a £14 charge, the cream tea was the other half of the bun with a small ramekin of jam and clotted cream, that came with a pot of tea which was £12 slightly better value. I get it’s popular and a tourist attraction, but I’m sorry £37 for what is really 1 whole barm cake, 3 slices of meat, a small pot of Jam and cream and 2 drinks is a lot to pay!

Disappointed with the Experience It was my first time visiting Sally Lunn’s in Bath, and unfortunately, the experience wasn’t great. The service was lacking, and cleanliness was an issue — the glasses and cups were dirty, and we had to ask for replacements. Even when we requested an extra cup, we were told it was against the rules, which felt unwelcoming. We ordered scones and tea — the food was okay, but overall, the visit was disappointing due to the poor service and hygiene.

The location is charming, and the staff were attentive. Our food came out super fast, so we weren’t waiting long at all. They were great about getting us seated despite arriving during lunch hour and there being a long line. The food is good, though not remarkable. I had the Brie and cranberry bun and added bacon, which was our favorite dish. The lemon curd bun was mediocre, and the open club was nothing we could not have made at home. But it seemed like the people around us enjoyed their food and it’s a fun place to spend lunch in bath because it is an experience beyond just the food. We did like the food, but just didn’t feel it was extraordinary. People must think it’s extraordinary for the business to stay running for so many years!

A must-visit spot when in Bath - both for the food and the history. Housed in one of the city’s oldest buildings, dating back to around 1482, Sally Lunn’s is full of charm and character. The famous buns are light, delicate, and absolutely delicious - used as the base for a variety of flavourful dishes that are surprisingly filling. The service is friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Just a heads-up: the stairs leading upstairs are narrow and uneven, a reminder of the building’s age and authentic preservation. But that only adds to its quaint, cosy, and atmospheric feel. There’s also a small museum downstairs, free to visit. Prices are reasonable, and you definitely won’t leave hungry.

We obviously had to try this historic eating house. The restaurant itself was super cute, well done to accommodate lots of guests, but also keep the charm. We arrived right at 10, as we hoped to take a 10:30 walking tour. We were sat, ordered, ate, drank, paid and left by about 10:25, so it was rushed, but doable! We ordered the cinnamon bun and lemon curd bun. The cinnamon was meh, but the lemon was fantastic! I wish I had done more research on the popular buns to make the experience better. We also ordered a latte and the chai which were below average.

I enter the place for afternoon tea, but not finding what I was looking for (classic cake stand with sandwiches, pastries etc) I order two simple scones and some tea. I was warned that the Bunns are nothing special... I politely ask a waiter if I can charge my cell phone a little. It would have taken ten minutes, but he was truly dead. To which the waiter tells me he would ask the manager. Shortly after he comes back and tells me I can't?!? I was frankly surprised. I said it was completely empty, and they saw that I was a solo traveller, a foreigner and a woman. What's the problem? I would have liked to enjoy this tea by being able to call my boyfriend, take some nice photos and have peace of mind knowing I could find my way back to the station easily and having my digital bus ticket consultable. I felt really unwelcome. In the end I hurried to finish and at the time of the bill I pointed out to the lady that I didn't understand the reason for this unreasonable rudeness. He told me that if I had to pay the bill on my phone he would make me charge it (even though I had already paid)! The audacity! 😡 I managed to get to London after three hours on the bus and found my way to the hostel, but if I needed to make a phone call or had an emergency there was nothing I could do. If the old lady has a daughter who travels, I sincerely hope that they don't treat her like this abroad. Considering the scones and tea were nothing special, as well as overpriced, and this treat, frankly go somewhere else.

Sorry but I really don’t get the hype of this one. Lots of friends and media recommended this place so we decided to pay a visit when we finally visited bath. First thing you would notice is that the queue outside is quite long, but you cannot find any staff or any directions for anything. For example, if you just want to visit the museum and shop, you could skip the queue. But there were no signs or staff to tell you anything, and this is because it is severely understaffed. There are only like 2-3 staff doing all the front work and this extends the waiting time for every action. Want a table? Wait for 30 mins queue + 5 min wait at the front Want to order? Give them 10 mins Paying your bill? You have to actively seek them otherwise you might have to stay the whole afternoon. Though I must say, under this harsh working condition, staff are still polite and efficient. They are working their ass off already, so I think it is the management’s fault here. Food wise, we both think it is overrated. We didn’t go for the salty Sally Lunn buns because they cost £13 each and I saw it is just some meat put on top a full bun without drinks. Instead we opted for sweet buns which are half a bun plus jam or other flavours with cream and a pot of tea for ~£11 The real disappointment is that there is nothing special about this meal. The buns are only lightly toasted on top and the rest taste like the daily breakfast loaf you eat at home, the jam is unremarkable as well. I had the lemon one and it is very normal, the sugar coated fresh lemon is good but there’s only one small slice. Don’t get me wrong there is nothing with this meal but there’s also nothing justifying the wait times and price. Though they have quite a wide range of tea selection and it is the redeeming factor for an extra star. The museum and shop area is also extremely small and doesn’t smell pleasant. It seems the toilet fumes from up above are leaking into the basement. All in all I don’t see the need to revisit this place at all as there are better options nearby whether you want lunch or tea.

I wasn’t expecting to be so amazed by a bun. Kept it simple and just got the bun with jam and clotted cream. Absolutely delicious! But also it was the first time I tried clotted cream so maybe that contributed. I also got a chai tea and it was surprisingly delicious too. There was a short line in the afternoon but it moved fast. There are 3 levels of dining rooms and the museum is in the basement. Because it’s so simple I was in and out in less than 30 min and left very satisfied. Well worth the visit if you can go.

I was so ecstatic to try this place for a while and when my friend had this on her list of places to go whilst we’re in Bath, I was over the moon. They have an array of savoury and sweet bun options as well as an array of teas and other drinks to accompany your bun. Upon recommendation, we went for the French toast, a drizzle of syrup topped with bacon. The bun itself was soft and airy and was quite marvellous to bite into. Quite big as well. Well balanced savoury and sweet proportions. My lapsang tea served as a nice palette cleanser. The experience wouldn’t be complete without being able to buy their conserves and buns at the museum downstairs with a real-life model of how Sally curated her mastery. Lovely time here and would come back here again to try their other options.

This was my first time in the World Heritage city of Bath. I had included this shop (also a World Heritage site) on my sightseeing route, and planned to visit the underground after eating the lemon curd. Something happened when I was paying! I only had an AMEX card, no cash, and my smartphone payment wasn't being accepted, so I was in a lot of trouble, but the very cute and kind staff member Beth helped me in many ways to pay. It was the first time I've been treated so kindly overseas. I remember that she was smiling and had a very good attitude from the moment I entered the store. I'm very grateful. Thank you very much.

Good food and lovely to sit in such an old house. The tiny museum in the basement was awesome. But if you order "sparkling water", "still" is not what you want and get.

Went for dinner on Tuesday of this week to sample the traditional "trencher" meal, where the 'trencher' turned out to be half of a modern white bread bun. I was expecting a more rustic bread based on what was described on the website. I don't consider this to be "Historic Eating"!

A truly delicious and filling meal. We simply had to get a dessert, too. The service was a bit slow, but only because it was so busy, even on a weekday. I would recommend stopping in not at a typical meal time.

My partner and I love this place! We always come by for breakfast when we visit Bath. Food is great and the atmosphere is quaint. We recommend visiting at least once for a pleasant experience :)

Stopped by this place for a quick afternoon snack. We had heard about Sally Lunn’s from a few friends prior to our trip, so it was a must! Buns were very good! I had a cinnamon butter bun & my friend had a bun w/ jam! Super yummy!

We really enjoyed our lunch here! Charming old place. The bunns are unreal—really delicious and quite unique. We were seated within 10 minutes and food was served extremely fast.

This was very worth it. Amazing food and the tea was amazing. A lot of people but we got in without a reservation! Would come here again!

A must-visit in Bath! Sally Lunn's is not just a restaurant; it's a step back in time. Housed in Bath's oldest building, the cozy ambience is truly special. I enjoyed the famous Sally Lunn bun, a delightful semi-sweet bread that's a local treasure. The food was delicious, and the service was friendly and attentive. Don't miss the small museum showcasing the history of Sally Lunn and her iconic buns. It's a perfect spot to soak up the history and culture of Bath.

Great food. Fast service. There is often a queue but it generally moves quickly and once seated, service is prompt. The food is worth the wait. I had the club sandwiche and it was beautiful.

Felt a bit of a nuisance on arrival along with 4 other tourists because I had a walking aid. Believe me when I say no one wants to use such a device but if you have blood cancer and your determined that it should not stop you then I’d say to hospitality staff be a bit more understanding and less judgmental or refrain from Letting it show on your face. Luckily the dark haired waitress was a real joy she was wonderful and served us very well. Having just left hospitality after 35 years service running hotels we understand how hard it becomes as we age. Swap staff around so everyone gets a turn as hostess. Everyone gets a chance to be refreshed.

Disappointed in this place. The oldest house of Bath is interesting and the place is cosy but the famous Bath buns are mediocre at best. We didn’t understand the hype. The service was kind but very slow even though the restaurant wasn’t full. Not our best choice!

A male staff was incredibly unprofessional - no apologies after taking the wrong orders but just kept arguing with us!! Overall, quality food from the restaurant but disappointed service from the waiter.

Everything was very good except for one server who was incredibly rude. It took forever for him to serve us and his attitude was very rude and arrogant. When he got to our table, he didn’t say anything and stood there waiting for us to order. He eventually got our order wrong, but he kept defending himself without apologising. I have to say, I have visited here various times and have had great experiences. This waiter alone does not represent this historical establishment nor his fellow hardworking colleagues but he definitely is a burden to the reputation of this establishment.

The trenchers are delicious! I had the pork, which was the trencher of the day.

This pub is really welcoming even at busy times the staff are super helpful. A few years ago I wouldn't go anywhere near it but since the refit I am happy to pop in anytime and feel like a valued customer. A bug thank you to the team.🤩

If I could give 10 stars I would! The food was amazing, the chef is a genius! The food is way higher standard than “country pub meals” for sure. The sizes are so generous, so full of taste and seasoned perfectly. Pricing was reasonable. The BEST thing for me, as a coeliac (allergy to gluten that can lead to bowel cancer) is they have a GLUTEN FREE MENU! The staff are also very well educated about gluten. Turns out the chef has a family member who has coeliac disease so I felt completely safe eating there. We went back the second night of our stay in Bath because the food was so good and the staff so friendly. We had great chats with them, they felt like old friends. Highly recommend! From your Aussie mother and daughter guests. 🥰

Lovely pub with nice people, delicious drinks and reasonable prices. It is a place that I can fully recommend because everything fits and somehow harmonizes here. Great music (DJ or live), delicious beer, suitable decor and friendly staff. I hope that one day I'll have the opportunity to drink three beers here again. ;-)
