Perfect location with amazing views. Waiter took a bit long to take our order after we were seated but after that, service was excellent. Food was delicious and arrived quickly, steak frites was a bit overcooked but still tasty. Warm and friendly ambience as well.

High prices, stingy portions and variable quality. Simple things like a roast potato not even done well. A beautiful setting. Lovely staff. But at the end of the day, it's about the food.

Came on a Sunday. Good food, though not anything extremely special. The meat was of good quality, and the service was great. The waiting time wasn't bad at all, and when they made a mistake in the order, they were quick to change it. Definitely is pricey though portion size is good. The desserts were great, the ice cream was of high quality, though the sticky toffee pudding was not to my liking, felt a bit bitter from being overcooked. Would recommend.

A really disappointing experience, unfortunately the staff were rude and unwelcoming. It was a busy Saturday however we were made to feel that our service wasn’t wanted and that it was an inconvenience us being there. Hopefully just a bad day, maybe we will come back on a less stressful day.

Updated review : It's been 5 years since I've been here in it's heyday. Now it's tired, the toilets stunk and the only reedming quality was the location. When we came we were told all the tables next to the window were reserved and this isn't the first time we've been told that in the morning. I sat there and watched and for a whole hour we were there no one turned up for these supposedly 'reserved' tables. Our waitress served us as if we were a piece of toilet paper stuck on someone's foot. I do not know if she had an issue with us as we weren't speaking English but I would hope a place like this was inclusive.

Stopped for bacon sandwich with extra bacon and coffee. Just short of £15 for 3 pieces of hard over cooked extremely greasy streaky bacon on sourdough bread that i can only assume was stale as they toasted it to within an inch of its life. The crust was burnt and harder than rock. The saving grace was the fat off the extra greasy bacon softened the centre of the sandwich to a level that was soft enough to eat. It would have also been nice to have it with the coffee, not 30 minutes later. Should have waited the 30 minutes that it took to over cook 3 pieces of streaky bacon and cremate two pieces of sourdough and had a full english at the Fairfield Arms. Lesson learnt.

Our first time in Bath and we’re so glad we ended the day here last bank holiday! Firstly greeted with the warmest welcome from pretty much all the staff, as if we were locals. We ordered the fish and chips with the chip shop special I think it’s called. Portions were smaller than expected but appreciated the presentation, service and overall atmosphere -truly beautiful with lovely vibes. Finished with the blood orange sorbet which was the best sorbet we’ve had. Would definitely come again to maybe try the stonebake pizza’s downstairs, thankyou again for all your warmth and amazing hospitality!

Meeting up with my family, there were 14 of us travelling from Cornwall, Devon, Tewkesbury and Sutton Coldfield, including 2 children and a baby. The Hare and Hounds was a great find on the map that meant we could all travel and meet up for the first time in years. We were there for Sunday Lunch, being given an indoor area to ourselves so that we were able to enjoy the afternoon in privacy. The booking and pre-ordering was easy, the detail to allergies/intolerances impeccable, and then when the food arrived, well it was all amazing, the mains and desserts were all delicious. We were extremely looked after on the day by Simon and James, who couldn't have done enough for us, we could see the place was busy so for making us feel important, I thank you. After we had eaten we could have stayed inside for longer, but we decided to make the most of the weather and the stunning views from the garden and sat on the terracing outside and still the great service continued, with coffees and drinks. We all had such a wonderful day. Thank you all so much for making our family reunion a day to remember, we will certainly be seeing you again, best wishes, Pam Rhodes and family.

The service was excellent, the staff helpful and friendly.

A fantastic location with wonderful views. However, whilst the staff were friendly and cheerful the food let the experience down. I think mediocre would be generous. I believe the eatery has been taken over as the previous evenings we have visited it was somewhat more upmarket.

Well that was disappointing, went for a late lunch, the dinning area was cold and I had to shut the door for them. The server who I assume was new was bright and tried hard. Unfortunately whilst it's a quite small menu, they didn't have all of it available. I was also very surprised that a pub restaurant owned by a brewery only had one ale available and this wasn't one of their own. We pressed on, I ordered the sourdough rolls to munch whilst we waited, they had patently been microwaved when they eventually turned up and awful. I had the steak which was well prepared and arrived cooked as requested, the accompanying fries tasted liked they'd been cooked several hours before and were like eating straw. Won't be doing that again

First time here. Booked for Sunday lunch. My husband and I both had roast pork. Food was okay but not great. My meal was warm at best. Potatoes seemed reheated and extremely hard on the outside, almost too hard to cut in to. Pork was advertised with crackling but not crispy, just chewy. Not sure I would recommend or go back. View lovely. Service random but fine.

Great view, location and atmosphere for a pint. But be careful expecting food: they close the outdoor pizza spot when they feel like it “when it gets cold”. In this case that was at 6:43pm on a bank holiday when I’m stood in a Tshirt. Indoors they have loads of tables free but don’t have the capacity to serve them food. Overall feels like an expensive pub with great potential, but hasn’t yet worked out customer service is more than just being polite but also about delivering a service.

It was OK overall... a great location, nice building and gardens, staff were trying, when they could, to make it a good experience etc. However, being as generous as I can, the food was average. Not what I had anticipated. Not the end of the world, or complaint worthy, but close. Having visited a few times over recent years, and remembering a more up-market experience, it wasn't quite what I was expecting in some regards.

We were a party of 6 for Sunday Lunch. The day was warm and sunny and it was busy both inside and out (and the car park full). The staff were very polite and as attentive as they could be with so many customers/tables to attend to. There was a wait for the food to be served, but everyone enjoyed their choices - 4 out of 6 went for the Brie Tart, one had the charred Watermelon Salad and I had the Aberdeen Angus & black garlic mayonnaise burger (minus gerkin, as requested!). No one had room for a dessert, but opted for coffee or tea.

Small buffet arranged for about 25 people to remember my brother who died unexpectedly earlier this year. I could not have asked for more on quite a sad occasion. The manager on duty that day, Simon, was so helpful and friendly, making sure that everything was ok. Another member of staff, Ben, was more than happy to help with technical issues using the TV to display a PowerPoint of photos, even though the pub was extremely busy. All of the staff were kind, friendly and helpful. The food was lovely, fresh, and more than enough. The Hare & Hounds was chosen as the spectacular view of Little Solsbury (Solsbury Hill) was very important to both myself and my brother as were were growing up. Thank you so much for a very memorable day!

my partner and i went on a wednesday night, it’s based near bath racecourse, i have had this place saved due to the view for a while now and we were really excited to go. upon arrival the car park was poorly organised so we had to park on the road, when stepping inside we were very warmly greeted by a lady who seated us outside on the terrace upon our request. it was busy with almost every table taken up with 3-5 people sat down so we knew we were going to wait for a while. they had a lower terrance where it looked like they were serving drinks and wood fire pizza, i ordered the sausage and mash while my partner order the korean burger. you have to go up to the bar to order when sitting outside, i got a coke and my partner got a pint of inches, with food in total it cost £49 , we then had to wait 48 minutes precisely for our food which came out room temperature and looking a bit sorry for itself. though the sausage and mash did taste great, some vegetables would have been great to break it up. my partners burger was dry and bland in his words but we still ate it all and we left with full tummies. on leaving, i noticed in the kitchen it looked like there was only 1, maybe 2 chefs there - now i’ve worked hospitality the majority of my life, i completely understand the stress when you’re understaffed, but the ladies and gentlemen who served us were very attentive. overall id rate my experience 6/10, there’s definitely room for improvement but we were fed and staff were kind, what more can you ask for?

Took my grandparents here for the first time as a treat, along with my son. They throughly enjoyed themselves & thought the food & service was fantastic, which I couldn't agree more. We were welcomed in by a friendly waitress who showed us to our table, which overlooked the views (though unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side today so poor visibility) but that didn't take away from our experience, the staff couldn't do enough for us, all making genuine conversation and even congratulating my boy for his music performance we had just been too. The food was absolutely delicious! Empty plates all round! It's a rare treat for us to have a dessert but because the food was so tasty we made room for them & really pleased we did as they were Devine! The only problem I had was trying to stop my son taking some of mine as in his words 'this is the best sticky toffee pudding in the world' and I fully agreed with him! Wowzers! Definitely know what I'm having next time! All in all, this was a wonderful experience, thank you to the staff and hats off to the chefs - they nailed it!

Sunday lunch on the 14th of July for our son’s 17th Birthday. Wow, amazing food, service, views and atmosphere. A new chef had started on the Tuesday and they were short staffed in the kitchen working extremely hard. This chef and his staff are superb. We were had the carrot & coriander soup, the nicest I’ve ever had as the texture and flavours were perfect and the chicken and apricot terrine with a selection of breads. For our main, the burger, the hake fish & chips and the cheese, cranberry tart with a kale pastry as a Sunday roast with all the trimmings. We were advised there would be a wait for our food due to the kitchen being stretched but we didn’t wait long and it was worth waiting for. The food was hot, beautifully presented and the flavours and textures incredible. Hats off to the kitchen as when busy, sometimes food isn’t presented well but this was not the case. I wish I’d taken photos!

The building and views are wonderful, however the food was terrible. The menu is quite limited - I ordered the Korean Chicken Burger (£16.75) and my husband ordered the Aberdeen Angus and Black Garlic Mayonnaise Burger (£19.00). The chips were obviously frozen, they were thin and overcooked. The Korean Chicken Burger was inedible! I found the smallest piece of thigh meat, around 3cm round which was covered is a very hard thick grey crumb sort of stuff that was surrounding the chicken making it appear thick and much larger, however this still was only around 5cm by 7cm in total so didn’t in any way fill the size of the bun which was char grilled. It tasted disgusting and I could not eat it! My husband said his burger was unpleasant but he had a fairly thick normal sized round burger in his bun. The manager (I think) asked how our food was and my husband said very mediocre but the man laughed and walked away. I had only just tried mine and I just couldn’t eat it, the taste was so bad - I called the man back and he said he thought we were joking as other people have often said that before! He saw I couldn’t eat it and took the meal off our bill and asked if I would like anything else on the house. I refused as I was at that stage totally put off by the food and had an awful taste left in my mouth. We finished our drinks, paid the bill and left. I don’t normally put bad reviews on but feel I have to this time as the meals are not cheap and this afternoon I now have a very bad case of something that feels like food poisoning. My husband also had a bad stomach this morning. I will never eat there again!

Unfortunately had an awful experience here. I sent an email about our experience waited a few weeks for feedback and received nothing, hence I’m now sharing on here. We came for my dads birthday (sister and 4yr old nephew), it was a Friday afternoon at 2pm (past the “peak time”) we had to wait 45min to be served any drinks, we were unable to be served at the bar as they did not let us, we went up on multiple occasions. Once we got our drink's(1x Diet Coke, OJ and a cappuccino) we wanted to order some food, we had to wait a further 20mins, ordered food (basic order of main meals and children’s meal) we waited a further 45mins, the food came with no cutlery, had to go up and get ourselves. The food was super basic, no seasoning and dry. Very disappointing. I can cook better at home, it is extremely overpriced. The manager was also very rude and sarcastic, made some remarks that was uncalled for. Also was very rude to the staff. Safe to say we won’t be returning.

We recently visited the Hare and Hounds for a family roast and had the best time. They were able to accommodate us with a high chair, we also had our dog with us. The service was outstanding, the food delicious and the setting just beautiful. Such a lovely spot

Overrated Sunday roast, poor service, but lovely location. We love a good Sunday roast and were very excited to try here. Especially if the weather is good, you have a great view outside. Unfortunately we were starving, they took ages to serve us, forgot about our order twice and after reminding them multiple times we were served a subpar lukewarm warm roast. They did try to rectify it afterwards by offering a free dessert but we really weren’t impressed with the roast so gave it a miss. Come for the view probably and nice drink in the sun, but if you want the best Sunday roast then look elsewhere in Bath.

Goodness! What a lovely pub with fantastic food, views and selection of drinks. The chef was very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining some of the magic ingredients he uses in the dishes. Superb service from a beautiful Olivia and her fabulous smile. She's a real star of hospitality!

On three separate occasions I have been here, the staff have been incredibly rude. The first two times I went, the staff served me a pint with no head. When I politely asked for the head to be fixed, the bartender argued with me on each occasion, telling me it's because the pint has been sitting there... (Why was this even a response?). Then, this morning, I went for coffee and pastries to treat my family and mother in law. The coffee took 20 minutes to arrive (which I had to get from the bar myself) the milk was not poured properly, and to top it all off the milk had gone sour. When my mother in law complained, the lady then argued with my mother in law and told her it was because I asked for the coffees to be heated up a bit more... (A sly dig to somehow blame me for asking for extra hot coffees, but again, this doesn't even make any sense). We walked out without drinking any of our coffees or even being served our pastries. We weren't refunded and I did not ask for money back as it's not about the money. I am quite frankly sick of the stinking attitude from staff every time I walk into this place. Such a shame as it is beautiful venue, but certainly the last time I ever step foot in this establishment.

This was one of our favourite pubs but this latest visit was not good, I don’t know if they are under new management but something was amiss. Grumpy waitress took our order, had to wait an hour for our meal to arrive which to be fair was tasty and good, but very expensive,£30 for a steak is to high for me

Popped in Hare and Hounds for a bit of food in the week, pleasantly surprised how tasty and speedy the kitchen staff were pumping out the food. Also there was a waitress that has just started called Zoe that served us, she was confident,smiley and eager to take the orders as smoothly as possible as it was quite busy, she done an amazing job. All in all a lovely experience and will definitely return. Well done ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Don’t know about the food I didn’t have any but it’s a beautiful stop on my motorbike on a nice day. Great view over the valley.

What a disappointment this visit turned out to be. This Sunday meal, was a postponed Father's Day as our son was finishing off his A levels on the 21st June. We have been to this pub a few times before and were keen to try the food again. Starters were underwhelming. My mains was a vegetarian Wellington. It was OK, but filling bland and the carrots hard. Our son's roast beef was over cooked. The roast potatoes were boiled one side, roasted on the other, swimming in gravy so they were a little soggy but the major bugbear was my husband 'slow roasted pork' was anything but. The fat hadn't rendered down and the meat hard- hardly a pleasant experience and was sent back! My husband had to remove fod from his mouth and leave it in a tissue on the side of the plate as it was inedible. He never ever sends food back! After this lunch, we couldn't wait to leave.

Ordered a rum and coke and received a coke. Ordered an orange and lemonade and received an orange juice. Ordered 2 burgers which cost £19 each and they were awful. The kids pizza we ordered with our food arrived mid meal. One of the waiters was stroking a dog and then proceeded to serve food and not wash his hands. Overall it was a terrible experience and I would not recommend this place to anyone! Only come here for drinks! They added a service charge which annoyed me as I would not have given a tip!!

Great location - but since being taken over by the St Austell Group the food at this pub is safly very poor, which is a shame as it used to be one of the better foodie pubs in Bath. They're wheeling out the same menu across all four of the pubs they have taken over, and the quality is terrible - we ate here last night and the food was overcooked and bland, despite being expensive for a pub feed. I hope things improve, but if you're looking for a good meal then I'd look elsewhere for now.

We stopped by on the way out of Bath and enjoyed beverages while overlooking the valley and Bath itself. Service was good and we enjoyed ourselves

This is one of my favourite places of all time, not only it’s a beautiful diner it’s in an excellent location with a stunning view. The food is good quality and tasty.

All the food was amazing. Their drinks are great too and would recommend their steak and cauliflower dish. Their desserts are absolutely delicious. We would definitely come back.

Nice pub, busy inside. Food was standard pub grub which is exactly what we wanted. Staff were also very friendly, Irish barman especially (sorry, didn't catch his name).
