The Ale House in Bath and North East Somerset

£7.20 for a pint of Brixton ale. Someone needs to tell these people the COVID bounce ended a long time ago. No wonder the place was empty.

Lynsey and Ashley are great and attentive bartenders who looked after me all night and were so helpful.

Very friendly, no food but happy for you bring in your own. It is a sports pub, so expect noise when games are on.

Great pointers on other local spots to try. Highly recommended. Would visit again. Super nice, small place to Dip into as a brief shower dropped on us.

Really great staff Super friendly and up for a good chat. Well priced beers. 10/10 would recommend for any local or visitor.

We saw it was the best pub in Bath but we were a bit disappointed and surprised by the rather cold welcoming and all the men looking at us suspiciously 😂. The choice of beer is cool though.

Nice pub, great cider in the city

Great guy at the bar provided excellent service. Thanks for being here for us visitors.

The waiter was extremely rude, not recommended

Had a Madri lager ( medium strong ) as suggested by the barman - great choice - well located - proper old fashioned pub - can drop in for a no frills experience

Fancy a quiet drink. This is your place. It's nice to get away from the hustle and bustle.

I have rarely been more disappointed. We walked for over 25 minutes to get to this bar. We believed it had a wide range of real ales and cider and served good hearty food. I expected the bar to be quite big too. None of this is true. The bar is no bigger than a large household lounge, the range of real ales is limited to be generous, I didn't see any ciders and they don't do food. A complete waste of time.

Nice spot close to the river to pick up a pint. Nice options for modern IPA’s and ‘old man’ ales! Limited seating but we got in there at a good time!

Well run place.had no food so no Comment

Nice little pub with brilliant atmosphere.

We visited the Pint and a Laugh comedy club upstairs on a Thursday. The pub itself is small but very welcoming and serves 6X which impressed my friend. There's a magic club next door and not sure if they do food. Interior downstairs was quite small but it's central, convenient for buses and taxis and first impressions were good.

Great pub with friendly staff. My wife and I made fast friends with locals. If ever we are back in the UK, we'll make every attempt to go back to Bath for another visit. Thank you for making us feel welcome.

Good 🍺 beer. Great friendly pub in a scenic location .

Small, but friendly, city centre pub. Very expensive beer, even for Bath.

Great location, nice beers , reasonably priced. Also has a room upstairs doing magic shows which was really worth it - booked in advance

Really nice staff and a pretty good atmosphere

Sleight of hand rating tbh, cocktail making and magic making, brilliant stuff!

Full of Bath Rugby supporters, great 🏉

Asked to leave multiple times purely because one member of our group was tired and they don't allow people snoozing on their pub. Even though every one. Including snoozy head had just brought a beer and was only 3/4 of the way through

Nodded off got asked to leave, beer was ok

A broken cheep pub in a very lucky location . staff are robots and management are morality missing . don't be fooled by its convenient location ,its premise are tired rustic and its management less desirable. cratering for transients. A place Bath people avoid

Charged me 3.86 for a diet coke?? Not to mention the worker was a bit rude towards another customer

kicked us out as some people didnt get drinks and were very rude

Terrible pub, would not recommend, horrible customer service very rude staff.

Wonderful friendly place to relax after a busy day of sightseeing!

Bartender was friendly and I enjoyed the locals. I find some times locals are intolerant to outsiders but not here everyone was nice.

A great little pub in a great location. Good selection of beers available and a nice little outdoor space available

Happy 10th anniversary to The Ale House 🥳🎈 Best local pub to hangout for a pint after late night work! A very friendly and cheerful land lady. Lots of ale, beers and drink choices. Great price too! Closed at 2am or 3am on most nights. Simply the Best! I love this place ❤️

Always a favourite please to pop in when on a visit to bath. Calm and relaxed staff.. but we'll balanced with attentive and quick service. Good background music. No stars for food cos didn't eat, not really aware if they do food or not... There is a good aray of bar snacks. Generally a nice place. Calmer than the club's - even when busy... Last night was busy, but that didn't hinder the enjoyment in the slightest.

I don't actually remember being here. (It was one of those nights) Based on my lack of recollection, I'd say it's pretty epic, and serves alcohol. Bonza.

Popped in here while waiting for our coach to arrive. Not a lot of seating in the bar. Staff were friendly and helpful. Beer was great. The men's washroom was at the front of the premises down the steps. I found that quite quirky.

Good pub but rather expensive Will return though.

A very friendly waitress who gave me excellent advice on which ale I should choose. Nicely decorated and there was a lot going on outside. I liked

Good location, nice beers 🍺 try it if you’re around.

Went for the krowd keepers magic show, had a good laugh and the magician was good fun.

Proper British Pub - small and perfectly formed. Range of beers commensurate with the size of the pub - well kept. Staff on Wednesday afternoon (28/6/23) knowledgable and please to talk about the beers. Seemed to be a good mix of tourists and locals

Very nice little pub in bath , beer was very nice unfortunately the young man behind the bar wasn't very welcoming, seemed like he had a attitude

Lovely little place, friendly, helpful staff, a bit limited selection.

Nice and cool place for a late drink

Such a fitting spot for a casual drink and a sit in Bath center. The staff are lovely and always welcoming. A favorite spot of my colleagues and I. One of the best pints of Guinness too!

Lovely little bar with good ale

A very quaint pub with super staff. A very warm welcome is guaranteed

Worst pints of Guinness's and Moretti

Having missed our train we needed to grab a seat in a warm place for an hour. And this corner pub fitted the bill nicely. We had a house brandy each. (I love ale but not straight after a meal!) Place is nothing fancy but the staff were friendly, the choice of beers good. Next time I'm in Bath I will try to pop in.

Great magic show, really good fun.

Always a good place to go for a pre match beer

2nd best place to get on the booze in bath 👌🏻👍🏼

Good closing drink before the later bars.

Great place! Always something interesting happening outside, it's great for people watching. They have Guinness and great staff. Love the Ale House x

Stopped at this local pub while waiting for our tour bus to arrive and was pleasantly surprised on how good their fish and chips were and the beer selection that followed. Had cold drinks and great people watching from our patio seat as well which is always a plus in my books. I would definitely recommend popping in if you are in the area visiting the Roman baths like I was!

Great atmosphere, lovely staff, smashing experience

Enjoyed our visit here. Highly recommended

Good basic pub, friendly staff and good, well kept beer

Traditional boozer, open later than most so a good final stop option before the long cold walk back to the reality of our pointless lives.. Well that went darker then I intended.

great pub for a quick drink before the magic show upstairs. friendly staff and good amount of seats.

Not too much to say about an amazing pub: they have lovely staff, lovely drinks, and most importantly a phenomenal atmosphere

Great selection of drinks and good atmosphere

The pub was great. Ladies bathroom smelled so terrible I held my breath as long as I could, then held a wad of tissue over my nose but could still smell it.

Great little pub friendly service, nicely chilled Prosseco...highly recommend

There was a fresh tangerine in the bathroom.... Service OK. Building is beautiful

Most surprising wedding reception ever !

Good boozer, chatted to a local. Also chatted to some Aussies who weren't local.

Called in to shelter from the pouring rain. Friendly people behind the bar, great friendly service and cider was good as well. A lovely little pub overall

Walked in for a quick pint. When ordering the lad behind the bar was extremely quite even after asking him to repeat twice. Then having to say you have to speak up. He then gave me attitude. No toilet paper in the woman's toilets he said to go to another toilet instead of replacing the roll again with attitude. We then walked outside and another staff member said I’ll get you a bench as they are not paying customers. The people he moved were extremely elderly trying to sit down and rest again done this with attitude.

Really nice place. Friendly staff.

Local pub with local folk. Coldest beer in town. Small/average bathrooms.

Smashing pub. Great locals to natter to. Good drinks, lovely staff, quirky styling.

Nice beer bit pricey thou 12.60 two pints

Nice bar, good fast service. Great location near bath house. Outside seating on picnic tables with background music. Small inside

This has been a relaxing time with love, and videos, the best thing to do is not have every night booked food, it's ok, but there are so many good places to explore as well

Horrible employees, taxi driver refused to use the toilet!!!!!!never take anymore customers from/and there anymore!!!

This place was just sooo disappointing. Miserable staff and a jar for tips would you believe - for what exactly ?

Great pub, good drinks selection and lovely staff too!

A perfect little pub with a brilliant atmosphere. Enjoyed a perfect quiet pint before heading off to dinner with family

Beer OK, service without a smile though which was a shame.

Paul and Sarah are amazing hosts and they have never failed to accommodate us. A must visit in Bath!

Really lovely staff!! They always put so much effort into making our lacrosse social a great night for all

Lovely service, friendly-family vibe, a must-see on any visit. A crowd-pleaser is an understatement. There’s nothing quite like a evening at the Ale house! 💙

Absolutely love this place. Great staff with warm friendly vibes.

What an amazing place! Paul is so helpful and the drinks are delicious

Great place, not sure about the boundy challenge though

Unreal staff always a good night out!

Amazing pub and the best staff ever! Highly recommend as the greatest pub in bath, missing out if you don’t visit

The staff were amazing and the pints were also scrumptious. Paul and co are always to help and will definely be coming back.

Very friendly staff. Always welcoming to us for an after work drink. Late license too so great to enjoy till you can't anymore. And on top of that they have a magic bar in the same building!

Just a pleasent experience, liked it a lot

Good ales, good atmosphere, great background music and price excellent

Good selection of ale, really nice on a sunny day.

Nice little pub. Friendly staff.

Love this place itself and a nice little watering whole. But if you are a male who finds himself needing the toilet, you have to go outside and go down the steps in front of the pub. Unfortunately these toilets are awful! 🙈😅 But the Pub and beer is well worth it!

The atmosphere was really dry when I arrived, however they had a good selection of ales

Came in with my parents for one drink and end up staying longer great staff very friendly could not fault anything defo be back

Nice place for a drink and a toasty, very nice staff and very helpful

Quality little pub. With good beers and friendly staff.

2nd time being here friendly atmosphere cozy and a nice selection of beers
