The Montagu Bar in Bath and North East Somerset

Tuvimos una velada perfectamente espléndida de delicias gastronómicas. Tuve el entrante de Remolacha (al igual que mi esposo) seguido por el Halibut con mi esposo eligiendo el Cordero todos los cuales fueron cocinados / preparados a la perfección y bellamente presentados. El personal era amable y muy atento. Sin duda volveremos. Una pequeña nota, por desgracia, estábamos sentados cerca de una pareja que pensó que es bastante apropiado para llevar a cabo una conversación de negocios en su teléfono en la mesa durante más de 10 minutos a las 10 de la noche, mientras que los que estaban alrededor estaban tratando de disfrutar del agradable ambiente relajante. La arrogancia de algunos pueblos no conoce límites. Nuestro encantador camarero amablemente nos trasladó a otra mesa donde pudimos terminar nuestra comida en paz. Sería una buena idea que los restaurantes, especialmente aquellos que promueven la buena comida, establezcan algunos límites con respecto a la etiqueta.

Gracias Montagu’s Mews por una increíble cena de cumpleaños para mi pareja. El servicio y el ambiente eran de primera categoría y la comida era absolutamente de siguiente nivel en términos de creatividad, presentación y delicia! Ambos encontramos nuestras opciones absolutamente sublimes. Sí, los tamaños de las porciones son pequeños, ya que esta es una buena comida, pero la comida es tan rica que necesita que los tamaños sean más grandes. Y tenemos un par de lados para compartir, incluyendo la deliciosa papa crema. No nos fuimos hambrientos en absoluto. El bar es encantador para tomar bebidas antes o después de la cena. En general, una experiencia fantástica en este restaurante del mejor hotel. Como lugareños en Bath fue un placer cenar aquí después de muchos años de vivir aquí.

Filete duro. Recomendaron el vientre de cerdo en su lugar. El cassoulet de frijoles estaba completamente mal cocido y el muslo de cerdo tierno estaba seco. El pan estaba bueno...

Celebramos el 60 cumpleaños de mi pareja aquí y ¡qué noche maravillosa! Fuimos atendidos magníficamente por el camarero joven, muy agradable, elocuente y conocedor, un gran crédito para él por su atención. El menú era variado y todos los platos sonaban deliciosos, las elecciones que todos hicimos estaban muy bien presentados y exquisitos. El ambiente era simplemente perfecto y nos complace mucho decir que una noche maravillosa fue tenido por todos. Muchas gracias a todo el personal involucrado con nuestra noche.

Cuanto más pienso en esto, más furioso estoy. Tomé el té de la tarde aquí hoy con un amigo de América que no he visto en 6 años. Pagué la factura y me sentí un poco consternado al ver “el cargo por servicio discrecional 12 . 5 %» añadido a la factura. Esto no es Estados Unidos, esto es el Reino Unido donde los salarios mínimos existen por esta razón y créeme que he trabajado en algunos de esos trabajos de salario mínimo que no son parte de esta absurda cultura de propina. Odio absolutamente la adición de “cargo por servicio discrecional” que se agrega automáticamente a la factura, por lo que el cliente tiene que mirar un AH para que se elimine. Si voy a dar propina espero que el servicio sea más que excepcional. E incluso entonces, yo daría una propina del 10 % como es habitual en el Reino Unido. Ahora, el servicio era bueno, pero nada ejemplar para algún lugar cobrando £ 45 por cabeza para el té de la tarde, más de la mitad que para el menú infantil que no era apropiado para un niño! Como pagué en efectivo, dejé 120 libras, exactamente 7 libras. 69 por debajo de la factura total que incluía dicho “cargo por servicio discrecional” - por lo que aunque todavía había ofrecido una propina, no era la cantidad “discrecional” completa. Me quedé bastante boquiabierto al ser abordado por el camarero cuando nos fuimos, afirmando que solo había dejado 120 libras, cuando la cuenta es de 127 libras. 69 - Señalé cortésmente el cargo por servicio DISCRECIONAL, afirmando que había optado por no pagar esto en su totalidad - francamente debería haber declarado que sí, estaba esperando mi cambio. Más allá de los pobres, antes de que habíamos tenido un buen tiempo, sobre todo disfrutamos de la comida, pero definitivamente he tenido mejor comida en otro local Bath café hace muchos años que tristemente estaba cerrado hoy. No volveré ahora y tendré una buena mente para enviar correos electrónicos durante el resto de mi cambio, dado que la propina “discrecional” se esperaba tan claramente en lugar de la elección que debería haberse dejado conmigo.

El entorno gentil y exquisito de la Media Luna Real y Montagu’s Mews es el lugar perfecto para escapar del ajetreo de la vida durante unas horas. Nuestro té de la tarde era sublime. La amplia variedad de té y la selección de bocadillos y pastelería fue impresionante. Además, la precisión y los sabores eran sensacionales. Particularmente me encantó la tartaleta de grosella y crema y los bollos. El servicio era excelente y todos tuvimos una tarde soleada y muy agradable bebiendo té, comiendo las delicias dulces y quaffing deliciosamente crujiente Chablis. Muy recomendable y excelente relación calidad-precio para una tarde tan destacada.

We had been told that this was one of the best tea experiences in the UK. Better than in London. Wife and daughter came for tea usually 45 pounds per person but upgraded to the bubbly experience for 59 for wife and 45 for daughter. They were sat outside at a picknic table WITHOUT an umbrella on a warm sunny day. There were 2 other tables with umbrellas, yet they chose to seat at the ONLY table without an umbrella? After seating, requested to be moved as it was sunny and they were cooking in the sun. Even the host mentioned that "this table needs an umbrella. They moved to a shaded area in the patio but there was construction happening in the garden area so it was not a peaceful experience. By the time they were done, there was still the the same table with an umbrella unoccupied. The food was just okay as the sandwiches were mediocre, but the desserts were good. Had to waive the waitress down twice to refill the water and refill the tea. This is not a 4 star experience. It's not even a 2 star experience. They were not welcoming and for 100 GBP, it's just a disappointing experience. Would not be coming back nor would we recommend it. The landscaping and gardens setting is beautiful however and it's worth walking through. Perhaps when the construction is finished, have a drink there to get an experience but don't waste your time with the tea service. We had a much lovelier tea experience in Cottswold at Stow on the Wold at The Old Bakery Tea Room from a lovely couple who were very nice and understand good service.

Our son and daughter in law very kindly bought us a "red letter day" voucher for this restaurant at a cost of £295 for the 6 course tasting menu which included a bottle of champagneas a thank you for hosting their wedding reception in our garden last August. When booking the meal the person I spoke to was very pleasant and we were very much looking forward to this treat. Upon arrival the restaurant was very quiet but we were ushered to a table opposite the till where one is the waiters spent most of the evening folding napkins...it felt like they didn't want "voucher" guests in the actual restaurant where all the ambience was. There were definitely tables available as a couple asked to be moved from our area and we're found a table in the restaurant. The tasting menu itself was absolutely delicious but we were only offered glass of champagne each rather than the bottle paid for. I have endless the hotel regarding this but have yet had the courtesy of a response. I look forward to hearing from them!

The restaurant is set within lovely grounds at the Royal Crescent. Really enjoyable lunch. All staff friendly & efficient. Food was really good. Fantastic steak. Would recommend.

Booked an afternoon tea and didn’t let us down! Sat outside in the garden and enjoyed the delicious food and excellent service!

My husband booked lunch for Saturday 20th April to celebrate our wedding anniversary.. the food& service was absolutely amazing.. lovely staff .. want to mention merik who was very good when I had him running around trying to find a table I was happy with... But the absolute best was to be there to see Matt .. he is amazing and a true professional.. he will elevate the restaurant with his professional manner.. only downside was that although we booked for lunch it was over run with afternoon tea.. starting at 1pm . But having said that it was a beautiful place & food fabulous & will return very soon

We had the set lunch which was delicious, and beautiful to look at. The best food we have had for a very long time. The waiting staff were all very young and made up for their apparent inexperience with enthusiasm. So the service was slightly haphazard but relaxed and charming. A delightful experience, we’ll be back.

The service and the lamb… wow I’ve never tasted lamb as good as the one here. It was cooked to perfection. The highlight of the plate was a mini take on a Shepards pie. Just wonderful. Our server was also really passionate and really made our evening special. Thank you

The afternoon tea here is delightful. A selection of dainty and delicious sandwiches were followed by a Bath bun, a traditional Bath sweet treat. There was also a light and fresh scone, served with clotted cream and jam, topped off with a gorgeous variety of patisserie. My friends and I enjoyed the champagne and fine tea choice. Susanna was both knowledgeable and friendly. Her warmth and professionalism was an added bonus. What a memorable experience shared with lovely friends. Thank you

£75 a bottle of Marsannay Blanc or £18 a glass , £85 a bottle of Rioja Rerva spoiled our visit . Suggest you check out the wine list before visiting

Good points: the tasting menus were beautifully curated and well executed. We enjoyed our drink in the bar beforehand and we particularly appreciated the young sommelier’s selection of pairings with our tasting menus. His enthusiasm for the wine really stood out and we felt in safe hands! Let downs: we were placed on a table adjacent to the till/serving galley area. We were using a voucher that had been a Christmas present and we were definitely made to feel as though we were second class citizens. The restaurant was by no means full either. Our waiter could have been better - the first course my vegetarian husband was given the fish, and I was given the vegetarian option. This was a mistake / assumption that had started in the bar earlier when I was handed the vegetarian menu. Luckily when our waiter introduced the food I pointed out the mistake. Later on our waiter also forgot necessary details when introducing each course, and when it got to the cheese he could only remember 3 of the cheeses on the plate. Towards the end of our meal the staff began to make up tables for breakfast around us. And then we were left on our own to find our own coats which had been taken from us at the start before walking out without so much as a goodbye.

5* dinner & service on a Wednesday evening. Excellent cocktails in the bar, superb service from all staff, especially Maitre d' and sommelier. Food, as expected, was fantastic. It's not cheap, but for a special treat, it's definitely worth it.

Visiting the hotel as my son has a spa membership. Approached the restaurant to book a late lunch - spoken and dealt with abruptly and in a dismissive manner by the waiter / manager of the restaurant. He rudely informed us they were fully booked all day. His demeanour was clearly judgmental - "snobatorium" springs to mind. When we returned later that afternoon to meet our son (the time we were requesting a table in the restaurant) to find the restaurant had more empty tables than occupied. Appalling service and judgemental attitudes! Will never return!

I invited my friends for having my birthday dinner at the Montagu's Mews. The atmosphere, quality of the foods and drinks were amazing although it was a bit expensive. However, we were looked after by a lovely lady, named SHARAREH along side her male manager with French accent. Sharareh was the most beautiful inside and outside waitress we have ever had, she told us that she joined to the rest of crew only a week ago although, we were amazed by her excellent hospitality skills and of course her politeness. We certainly saw she went the extra mile to provide us the best dining experience we could have asked for. Thanks Sharareh, her manager and the rest of the team. We will certainly come back soon. P.S for the readers: If you want to take the most advantageous of your expensive bill, just ask for Sharareh to be your server ;)

My wife and I had lovely time at your restaurant. The quality of foods and drinks were excellent but on top of that we were amazed by your new waitress from Iran. I think her name was Shahare or Shahara but anyhow this Iranian lady was very lovely, polite and attentive. She made us to feel quite special! Please give our thanks to her! Heads up to the managers, Shahara is an asset for your company. Yours faithfully James & Helen x

Service average. Young waiters a little clueless, we asked for a recommendation of a fruity easy drinking & mellow red wine. He looked bewildered and perplexed and came back after 15mins with his colleagues recommendation. We decided to order two beers instead along with some sides. Please take a look at the photo attached as to the pints that arrived, no kidding. I was shocked and in hindsight should have raised it. Food very average and nothing fancy. Overall disappointing, does not live up to the reputation. Needs huge improvement on many levels.

We booked a tasting menu dinner to celebrate our wedding weekend. We had some cocktails at the bar before our dinner - very basic, lacked complexity and I could have made better at home. Food was ok however our evening, was tainted by a really poor experience with their ‘sommelier’ who struggled to recommend wine to go with the tasting menu. Not sure how that happens as the tasting menu normally remains the same for several weeks so surely someone must have asked this question before? One of the wines he suggested was the worst possible pairing to go with the menu and unfortunately, for the first time in our life, we had to ask for a different wine. He then took 10mins to bring out another wine which he said we couldn’t taste as it was a screw cap bottle. We then had to wait another 10min for him to bring a 3rd wine which we chose ourselves. All together our wine took over 30mins, it was the most awkward and unpleasant start to our dinner. The food waiter had brought out 2 courses by the time the wine came out and was surprised himself as to how long the wine waiter was taking. When booking, we’d mentioned that we got married the day before so it was a special occasion. There were no special touches added throughout our experience. It was extremely disappointing and we will not be returning nor recommending. Big let down, especially since the Royal Crescent has a reputation to maintain. This place does not do it justice. We felt extremely disappointed, given the occasion and walked out deflated, regretting having booked it in the first place

We wanted to visit here for a long time. We were greeted at the main doors of the sriram Crescent and first appearances were beautiful and were overwhelmed by the lush garden and arrangement of outdoor seating and tranquil ness. We sat for 15mins before being approached. We ordered some lunch and 2 lagers. The young gentleman was very friendly and soon returned with our drinks however never ever in my lifetime have I been served with a pint that arrives 3/4. We were both shocked and in hindsight should have said something at £7.50 a pint. The home made chips with rosemary should also so fried in beef dripping. I don’t eat meat and my mouth tasted disgusting afterwards. Once again when waiting for the bill it was 15minutes before they came to take payment. Very slow service. Many of the waiters just seemed uninterested. Disappointing and wouldn’t return. It’s a shame

This is my favourite restaurant in Bath, particularly in the summer when the gardens and outdoor seating is open. The service is impeccable and of course the food is excellent - but what makes it for me above other similar options (Gainsborough, Bath Priory etc.) is the ambience - you just can’t beat it in Bath and makes for a superb experience.

We enjoyed a drink in the bar (cocktails £16.50) then the a la carte menu at Montague Mews. There was also the option of the tasting menu. Exceptional service. Dishes are fine dining so small portions but big on taste and presentation. I enjoyed the complimentary bread with organic butter, the beef tartare for starter, the lamb main with chips as a side (I recommend getting a side), then the strawberry dessert. Amazing wine list. It was a light setting, not a dark, atmospheric, candle-lit setting. Recommend for a birthday/occasion.

After shopping in Bath, the Montagu's Mews was recommended as a place for a nice afternoon cocktail. The garden and mews was just what we needed, peaceful and refreshing.

Amazing experience from start to finish! The afternoon tea was exquisite! The staff are extremely attentive and the outdoor patio/garden seating areas are beautiful.

"Beautiful food, very good service, but utterly devoid of atmosphere. Granted, it was a quiet lunchtime, but still. Still v. expensive, so best if someone is picking up the bill"

"Relaxed and agreeable Sunday lunch after Tate Modern. Bright,airy room,service very good despite the place being full; excellent bavette and frites, fresh and flavoursome crab on toast. a good standby in the area."

"Nice enough newcomer in the D&D stable, though unremarkable."

"Buzzy, busy French bistro serving steak and chips and nothing else. Particularly enjoyed the efficient, yet utterly perfunctory and miserable Parisian service - hilarious. Jolly tasty dinner though; washed down with a delightful brace of Haut Medoc. Annoying no reservations policy, but there we are!"

"Good food (though rather small portions). interesting wine list aided by a talkative sommelier. For me, the draw here is the stunning views over the interior of the delightful Royal Exchange."

So this was to be a highlight of our holiday and it turned out to a great disappointment. Snooty staff, so so food, big price tag. Find tea somewhere else.

I don't think we could fault the food here as it was delicious. From the canapés to the petit fours with coffee everything had been thought through to the last detail. Would highly recommend.

The gardens were pleasant and we were able to have afternoon tea on the lawn. Very disappointed in the high tea served. Too little for alot of money.

This was a surprise visit for my 40th birthday, so I wasn't really dressed for the occasion! We entered the beautiful Georgian terrace with little idea what was beyond! The afternoon tea was out of this world, there was a fantastic choice of unusual teas...

A really pleasant way to end our holiday with a beautiful tea in the garden. We were so fortunate with the weather.

Can't really begin to describe how amazing the food is. Each dish was so unusual but all the flavours were so complementary to each other, this was a real dining experience!

Well, if you are going to do tea, do it with the English. Very classic service and presentation without being pretentious. They bring all of the charm and history without any stuffiness. Stop by if you are in the area.

The Royal Crescent Hotel has a wonderful afternoon tea. The finger sandwiches, scones, and pastries were excellent and unique. They even had Bath rolls, which was a first for me. The tea selection was original. The service was outstanding. A great atmoshpere to enjoy afternoon...

Afternoon tea at the Royal Crescent lacks the opulence and Georgian splendour of the Pump Rooms, but is very fine in every other way. On arrival we walked through the small foyer, out through the garden to an annexe at the back of the hotel....

We had several breakfasts here and two dinners. It's very well-done, innovative British/local food w/ a Scottish twist. And the attentive staff is impressively knowledgeable about everything that comes out of the kitchen. Well done!
