The Crystal Palace Pub in Bath and North East Somerset

Loved it here. Great atmosphere. Nice pub grub, especially the sticky toffee pud.

Wonderful location, right next to the baths. The vegetarian curry was average.

We had a fantastic time at the Crystal Palace Pub in Bath. The pub has a charming Georgian-style character, giving it a warm and slightly historic feel. Its location is perfect – just a short walk from the Roman Baths and the Abbey, making it a convenient spot to relax after sightseeing. The staff were welcoming and friendly, creating a pleasant atmosphere. We loved that there were plenty of seating options, both indoors and outdoors, including a separate dining area and a smoking section. The outdoor space was particularly nice for a casual drink. The drinks were great, and the overall vibe made it a perfect place to unwind. Whether you’re looking for a drink, a meal, or simply a place to enjoy Bath’s charm, Crystal Palace is well worth a visit. Highly recommend!

Great pub, exceptional service from Jasmine who was a delight and couldn’t do enough for us!

Just had a couple of drinks with friends. Pub was very cosy with a large outdoor patio area. Service was swift and friendly. Would visit again if I happened to be in Bath. A Fullers pub.

It took 3 servers to get our orders and still got them wrong. The first boy had minimal training and not much smarts. The second was better but still issues. Thankful the girl at the end got solve some problems. Three of us had a pastrami sandwiches. Each sandwich had a single thin slice of meat. Sad. And of course it was expensive. What a go owners, rip off the tourist!

Nice setting/location. Better+fancier than normal pub food. Great pie!

Abbey Green in central Bath. A beautiful area with a lovely pub.

Nice place to eat and drink not over the top price wise

Staff, service, food all top🥰. Sticky Toffe Pudding is highly recommended! The music and the whole atmosphere were also very good 👍.

First visit to the Crystal palace and was very impressed , Food excellent , staff were very pleasant and attentive ,and the atmosphere was warm and cozy . Have recommended it to my friends for future trips to Bath

Great place to watch the six nations. Good crowd and good food. Staff are great (but sometimes busy).

Such a charming & wonderful place to kickback during a hard day’s of travel! FOOD & PEOPLE are amazing… a must STOP!!! Checkout Once_was_Blind_Photography on Instagram for more photos. Enjoy your visit!!!

Almorzamos aquí el sábado pasado antes de ir al Bath v Ampthill rugby. A pesar de ser un día ocupado, nos sirvieron rápidamente y disfrutamos de un par de pintas de Guinness y un poco de pescado con patatas fritas y los cabos salchichas de cerdo y puré - muy agradable todo el día! Encantador pub, excelente entorno y buen servicio. ¡Volveremos!

Excellent pub, some of the beer is expensive but you also get an open fire.

We are early evening in a Monday so it was quite quiet. Atmosphere was very welcoming and cosy. The food was excellent. The service was great. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to Bath and we will definitely come again

Had the roast beef Sunday lunch Chewy beef which I couldn't eat. 3 small roast potatoes, one carrot, one parsnip and a Yorkshire pudding that took up the whole plate didn't even taste like a roast. Ask for money back Definitely wouldn't eat here again

The welcome was friendly and happy with all staff very attentive. We were allocated a table fairly quickly and after being advised of specials on offer we ordered our food. We chose a focaccia for a starter and then Pork Belly Roast & Haddock & Chips. All the food was excellent, tasty good portions and a good hot temperature. There was sufficient choice of menu. Everything was delivered in a professional friendly manner. The whole location ambience, cleanliness and efficiency was faultless. We will definitely be dining again on our next visit. Well done

Nice pub Open fire Friendly staff Spacious

Bath Rugby Team are at the top of their game and so are the team at the Crystal Palace! Excellent range of Fullers beers in tip top condition. Sunday lunch in the restaurant was faultless. All served with a smile. We have been to many Fullers establishments over the years and the Crystal Palace is now our number one.

Good vibes here. Good beer too!

Great pub, lovely food with great service

We called in on the off chance for a Sunday lunch and enjoyed a fabulous meal sat by the fire in the bar area. Roast beef and Chicken supreme - both were delicious. The environment and atmosphere were perfect, and the service was excellent with all staff members friendly and attentive. Thoroughly recommended and will definitely return. Also the home made horseraddish sauce was powerful (in a good way) and made my eyes water!

We had a great lunch on Saturday. The food was delicious and we were happy that the pub is also pet friendly as we came with our little dog. We really enjoyed Toms service as he gave us some fantastic information about the history of the pub. We will definitely be visiting this pub again when we are next visiting from London.

Our favourite pub in bath to stop off for a drink! Very cosy inside with beautiful outdoor seating

Wonderful place and such friendly staff.

it was amazing specially there was good warm nice weather that day there i roam around took about 400 pics

Just a couple of halves of pale ale

We just had such a wonderful dinner and the woman (wish I knew her name) who served us was so friendly and accomodating. She even ran half way around the block to return a beanie I had left at the table which I’m so grateful for. Would certainly come back.

City center Fullers Brewery pub. Very close to the Roman Baths , Bath Abbey ,Pulteney Bridge and Weir. Two seperate bars inside , plenty of seating at the back with heated parasols. The food was of a very good standard, the only surprise was the price of a pint of Fullers ale over £6. The building has a lot of history , check the website.

Better sandwich menu like they used to have would be better especially the club dandwich

Great place to have lunch! Schnitzel and Sunday roast were great.

Good pint of ESB, Awesome staff, great food, brilliant vibe! Will is brilliant!

Nice & cosy place, especially during winter - it's very Xmassy inside. It's great to stop by for a drink.

Recently I posted a not-so-good review about taking cash-only which is fair enough but not at their whim, but credit where credit is due. We booked a table on the 9th November for four and yes it was only lambs liver on bubble and squeak, a very simple meal but the taste was spot on. And not expensive so we were able to have an extra bottle of wine and. Watch the world go by

A bit pricey but great food and drink in a classy pub

First class ESB or HSB Fullers ale. Good inner city pub.

On a pleasant square, near the Roman baths. It took us a while to realize that you are not served at the table. You are supposed to place your order at the bar you do, pay immediately and it will be brought to your table. The place was almost full. It was a pleasant hustle and bustle. Sufficient choice on the menu. The food was tasty. One chair at our table was directly next to the doorway, not very convenient. We have put this aside.

I really enjoyed the astomphere. the service was top-notch. The fish and chips were amazing! Highly recommend eating at this restaurant.

I'm surprised that there wasn't a highway man behind the bar as bar prices was daylight robbery. £18 for a pint of lager and small bottle of prosecco. Even the bar man thought it was dear, I've never been charged £11 for prosecco. It's a simple pub at the end of day! Then, the bar staff hound you to leave minutes after last orders, there are far better pubs in Bath, with fairer bar prices.

A most pleasant spot to stop for a drink or a meal. A friendly welcome and a wide-ranging menu.

We enjoyed our visit to Bath but the food… was blah. Except here at the Crystal Palace which we visited twice. By far the best restaurant we tried in Bath. My wife has some dietary limitations and they were very helpful preparing her food. What I had was very tasty, very well prepared. Their beer selection was good too. Two of the best meals we had in England on this trip.

The Crystal Palace was recommended as a good pub and we were not disappointed. There was an extensive menu and we had Thai chicken curry and a salmon dish, both of which were very tasty. We ordered a bottle of wine but when we came to pay was told we only need to pay for 2 large glasses as it was a special Wednesday night offer! Amazing! There was a great atmosphere with people coming and gong but not too noisy. Would recommend.

We have been popping in here, most years, for the past 15 years and I have to say even I was surprised at the change. We normally sit out the back which is all under cover but opted to eat in the restaurant this time and we were pleasantly surprised. Rhe decor was really tasteful with a definite French theme and the menu , although not particularly extensive, had a good variety. The atmosphere was really nice, a mix of couples, families and a wife range in age demographic too. The food arrived hot and excellently presented and we really enjoyed it. The lamb faggots were divine. If I was to have a slight criticism, it would be that the service was a little slow, but it was a Tuesday night and they were full and in some ways its better than being mithered constantly and it did not spoil the evening at all as we were not in a rush.

Nice welcoming pub, nice food and good beer

Great place - lots of comfortable seating options (inside and outside). The food (I had the chicken) was great and a lot of nice ales on tap.

Top notch lazy afternoon lunch mid-week. Despite day and time was still very busy with lovely cosy atmosphere suggesting how good this pub is. Food was gorgeous, expertly executed and brilliant service to boot. Was really glad they squeezed us in, will definitely book next time to ensure we get in!

Had an excellent Sunday Roast lunch there yesterday. Reserved a table - everything was ready for us. Service was fantastic and timely. Staff were very professional. Great team and special thanks to our hostess Josie.

Maybe the best roast I've had in my life 👌🏽 cute atmosphere, dog-friendly and the service was great despite them having no card payments or WiFi!

We went here for dinner based on many locals recommendations. It was absolutely fantastic! The dining room was decorated in a cozy traditional style yet felt very new and updated. The food is more on the traditional side and so well done. We had the Sheppard's pie, fish and chips and onion rings. Everything was delicious and those onion rings were the best onion rings I've ever had. The fry on them was light as air and crispy and golden. This kitchen is on point and serving something special. Traditional English pub food done very well with quality ingredients. We were very happy dinner guests. The locals recommendations were a testament of how adored and consistent this restaurant has proven to be. The vibe was so fun and welcoming that we made friends with the diners at the next table and their adorable dog Herbie!! This restaurant is a must in Bath!

Absolutely charming pub with great food and fantastic service! We had a tight schedule and Manon managed to get out a round of drinks and appetizers with time to spare. Everyone was more than happy to go the extra mile! They also had just about the best fried squid my wife and I have ever had.

Lovely big busy pub. Food looked really good but it wasn't cheap. We had two pints of asahi which cost almost £15. I know you expect to pay more as it isn't a very common lager, so it was a nice treat. But it was still a lot of money for one drink. The roast dinners being served looked amazing and staff were friendly. So definitely a place worth visiting in Bath.

Lovely pub with friendly staff & great selection of food. We stopped for a light lunch & the sandwiches were delicious!

It was quite when I visited but a nice enough pub worth a visit

My family and friends came for dinner last night . They were told they had 15 mins to order and did so . The drinks were served then they were told there was no food after all !! A very rude member of staff told them and they left . I recommended your pub to them even though our last visit wasn’t great rude waitress again !! It has spoilt their birthday as they were unable to eat last night !! Very sad

Lovely pub in the middle of Bath, great selection of beers and very tasty food! Fantastic service from staff, especially manager Callum - will definitely be returning!

Food was amazing, service was exceptional. They were very busy but the two young ladies worked well and assisted each other. (Sorry didn't ask their names -Thurs 9/12/24). Would definitely go again (we had tried 9/11 but they were even busier).

Staff very efficient and friendly. Food wonderful.

We waited for 15 minutes before we went inside and asked if we were supposed to order inside. Then we were informed that no, our waitress would be coming to our table to take our order. But our waitress was having a jolly old conversation with some other patrons. It must have been an exhilarating conversation because they were exchanging phones and showing each other photos and having a grand time. So after waiting a total of 30 minutes with no service we decided to try our luck elsewhere. If you like sitting and waiting, this is the place for you. If you like to eat and drink you might want to consider another establishment.

Went in here yesterday lunchtime with three friends for a Sunday dinner - We all had the roast beef which was absolutely beautiful. Plenty of meat & the potatoes were superb ! Even my fussy mate Jeffers said “It was absolutely wonderful” Highly recommended.

A bit boring sandwich, but friendly people and nice location and atmosphere

Great pint of Guinness and nice friendly pub. Would recommend calling in if in Bath.

I had a medium rare steak and chips. Chips were crisp, steak was perfectly cooked. Mushroom was delicious and tomatoes tasted fresh. Washed it all down with a pint of pear cider. Price was reasonable, staff were attentive and didn't have to wait long to be served or for food. I would visit again

It’s like being abroad. We were lucky enough to get a seat outside the front of the pub. There are around 5 tables which are looking out onto the small intimate cobbled square which is covered by a huge tree, the weather was great and we could hear a busker playing in the distance near the Roman baths. It was if we were abroad. Highly recommend

Incredible fish pie and great beer

Great tea, coffee and cake selection.

Went here twice during our stay in Bath, once for "Wine Wednesday" and dinner, and once just for drinks. Wine Wednesday is a lovely deal where you get the entire bottle for the cost of two glasses. They have a very good Spanish red, very nice, so we enjoyed that immensely. Ordering dinner is interesting, as you order and pay at the bar, then you're given a number which you put on your table, and the server then later finds you. The ambiance is very nice, you can eat inside or outside on the patio which is well shaded by several massive tent-like umbrellas. We had the tea and hops smoked fishcake, the Caesar salad with chicken and the fish and chips. This happens but I feel I must report to the TA community, that there was a piece of narrow-ish flexible wire, about 2 inches in length, under the fish, on the bottom of the plate. We surmise that it was part of the packaging of the fish?? No actual clue, but there it was. We could easily have ingested it, broken a tooth, all sorts of problems......but luckily we caught it and went directly back to the bar to report it. The chef happened to be there and was very concerned, appropriately so, and came back to the table to look at it - we were offered to have the meal comped but we said no, no - we only wanted the chef to be aware as someone behind the scenes was not doing their due diligence whilst preparing the meal. As I said, this happens in kitchens - workers are moving fast to get orders out, and we also are aware that it's hard to get and keep staff these days. It's a word to the wise to any consumer, that this can happen - so be careful what you're chomping down on, before you chomp!

Lush haddock & chips followed by a few ciders in the beautiful courtyard. Perfect.

Beautiful decor and very traditional atmosphere. Varied and tasty cuisine. And very helpful staff. A safe bet in Bath ;)

I enjoyed my meal. The staff were fantastic. Polite and ready to help.

Lovely spot in central Bath for a family get together. Food was very good and the staff were really attentive and pleasant. I think that we will make this a regular occurence without a doubt.

Busy atmosphere but pleasant staff and efficient service. Well-kept (but expensive) London Pride. The 'special' was a delicious fish pie, worth the price... Overall nice visit, we'd be happy to return.

Very busy Saturday late afternoon, prime location in Bath. Service was excellent ( included in the bill) Toilets need attention, no paper, one out of order. Food was ok, ordered chicken with triple cooked chips. They were the same frozen chips as everyone else got with their fish. Extensive drinks menu - pricey for a pub.

Shame there was no tv showing the England v Switzerland match as we had a table booked as was recommend by a friend who lives nr bath

Really really nice pub with lovely courtyard out the back.

Very pleasant space with excellent food and service

Lovely friendly place, good staff, and I had some nice food too

Nice pub and all that. Not much decent beer beyond London Pride but it is a tied pub so that's understandable. But my problem is the price! Since when was 3 pints and a soft drink over £28!!!! This just seems to be taking advantage of tourists who don't know any different and clearly make up a large part of the customer base.

Lovely pub with amazing food and a lovely courtyard out the back which is a real sun trap.

Great to sit out in the beer garden on a sunny summer day. Didn't eat but the food looked good too

Great pub! Great in the sun too!

What a lovely pub! Such a wonderful atmosphere and amazing service! Thank you so much

Upon entering this illustrious establishment, one is greeted by an ambiance so splendid, it would make even the grandest of ballrooms blush with envy. The staff, oh the staff! Courteous and attentive, they cater to one's every whim with the alacrity of a well-trained squire. One almost expects them to break into a bow or curtsy upon each request, such is their dedication to service. As for the fare, the culinary offerings at the Crystal Palace are nothing short of a royal feast. The wine list is as extensive as the royal lineage, and the selection of local ales is a veritable cornucopia of hoppy delights. Each sip of the amber nectar brought forth visions of merry revelry and festive banquets, evoking the spirit of bygone eras when merriment was the order of the day. In conclusion, the Crystal Palace is a sanctuary of indulgence and mirth, a place where one can revel in the finer things in life whilst basking in an atmosphere of grandeur. It is with the utmost sincerity that I bestow upon this establishment the highest of accolades and a decree of perpetual patronage. Long may it reign as the jewel of Bath’s social scene!

Great pub in a lovely part of town - nice and central, cobbled court yard under dappled light, and when you go inside you will find a light and airy pub with lots of atmosphere. Great service and good food. What's not to love?! Definitely recommend... (esp if you are also a Bridgeton fan as it's also right in a well filmed area of Bath).

Nice old pub in the centre of Bath. Good selection of ales and wine. Pleasant, friendly staff.

The menu may look like bog standard fare. The quality of the food set it apart. I planned to take photos of all the food, but after tasting the light and wonderful calamari I fell upon my entre. They graciously inquired about preferences and allergies upon our order. Go here after your tour of the Roman Baths!

No women's toilets available on a busy Saturday lunchtime. Mentioned this to a member of staff and she was breath-takingly rude. Just lost this local's custom, well done, team.

Lovely pub in the middle of Bath. Worth stopping for a pint!

Most of what we ordered was delicious.. burger was a bit charcoaled but being from US we don’t like well done!! Good value and good food plus a great atmosphere loved it!! The service was outstanding too! Oh and don’t forget dessert!

Went to Bath for a beer 🍺 on my birthday 🎂.

Excellent experience with dinner for three. I had the fish and chips and recommended them readily. The out door dining area was very pleasant.

Visited twice whilst in Bath had a meal at one with friends and drink only second visit, nice relaxed atmosphere, staff very friendly and prices reasonable which is nice in middle of town, worth a visit !

Maybe we chose the wrong time to go (Friday eve?), but the beer was poor and it lacked any atmosphere when we visited this establishment.

Hi First the QR code system does not work as it has a different list of food to the paper menu!! We had the salmon starter , the humus starter and the terrine starter, they were terrible , the bread was of poor quality , the salmon was poor the terrains was tasteless !!!

Our tour guide recommended this place for lunch after our visit to the Roman Baths. The service was quick and the food was really good. We had the steak pie and the fish and chips.

Beautiful little pub with fabulous food.

Lovely pub in a wonderful courtyard setting. Staff friendly and very customer focused. Recommended.

I came with my family last week - brilliant spot in Bath for great food and drink (plenty of seating inside and outside). The staff are excellent, particularly Jasmine who was very friendly, welcoming and helpful with our complex order - we’ll definitely be back!

Nice food in a gastro pub style setting.

After a very long wait, we received an overcooked steak.
