The Rising Sun Inn in Bath and North East Somerset

The Rising Sun is under new ownership and I’m pleased to see it seems on the way back to its former glory. The pub is undergoing some much needed renovations. We had a really good meal there and very enjoyable evening, the menu isn’t huge but what was on offer cooked well and very good quality. All washed down with an equally good bottle of Malbec.

Wonderful and unique experience staying here. Handy to everything I wanted to see, and staff were wonderful. Awesome!

Land lord was really quite rude. Telling us it was his business and he can do what he wants - shutting the pub at 6:30 on a Saturday evening. It wasn’t what was said - it was his manner and the way he said it Avoid this pub as you will get much better service elsewhere

Came to Bath for our 40th wedding anniversary over weekend of 18th -20th June 22. Wanted somewhere to go for Sunday lunch like a lot of English folk do. Where do you begin, word of mouth TripAdvisor take note of number of people eating there. Well my wife came upon some pictures on line from customers having Sunday lunch here and said “That’s where we going” we called early Sunday morning and reserved a table. Well, absolutely fantastic, people look nowhere else if you are looking for a GREAT Sunday roast, plenty of food, very good variety and HOMEMADE. We had roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, parsnips, carrots, broccoli, carrot and Swede mash and coulliflower cheese, with great gravy. Great hot homemade Sunday roast. Thank you.

Went to the rising sun for a friends birthday for food and drinks..They laid out a couple of nice tables with some nice candles to make it a relaxed setting,lots of people ordered different things from fish and chips ..fillet steak..mash and pork and squid and so on..It was all lovely presented and very nice and generous with portionsWell priced too..Staff was very nice and helpful.Highly recommend.

Three of us stayed here on a cycling tour. We booked in quickly and our bikes were stored away. The hotel is in a great location for a night out in Bath. We had a good night's sleep and a great breakfast the following morning.

We visited on Sunday for lunch as part of a weekend trip to Bath and it was top notch. Excellent food, great service and just a thoroughly enjoyable lunch. We all went for a roast dinner (3 beef, 1 chicken) and the meat was superb. Roast potatoes and parsnips just the way we like them. Cracking cauliflower cheese. Plenty of veg and, most importantly, plenty of gravy. I have no hesitation in saying it was the best Sunday lunch I have had whilst out. The closest thing to your nan's/mum's/own in terms of taste that you'll get.

This pub/inn has a convenient location but the street noise is is non-stop. There are partiers and cars into the wee hours. Clean but minimalist; sparse rooms. No lift and no one to help with luggage.

Great location to stay in the centre of bath. Would definitely return to this lovely pub and inn!!!!

We stayed with Lorraine, Norman and Millie the dog for 2 nights in their family room. We had breakfast both days and ate in on the second night. Lorraine and Norman are excellent hosts. The pub is ~2mins walk to the Pulteney bridge. The room and bathroom were clean, well equipped and comfortable. The floor was quirkily angled close to the window, reflecting the age of the pub, which my kids enjoyed. The bed was comfy and we slept well. There is parking on the street outside, but sometimes this is busy though Norman pointed us in the right direction. The breakfasts were generous and we left well filled without opting for an additional cooked option. There was a good selection on the evening menu and all the choices looked good when they came out of the kitchen. The food was obviously freshly cooked and tasted good.

Appalling. Nothing good to say about this place. Smelt of damp, room and bed were tiny, everything cheap and nasty. Only saving grace was bed linen which was clean.

This is a little gem. The location couldn’t be more perfect for central Bath, but tucked away on a quiet side street. This old pub has bags of character. We received a very warm welcome and the hosts Norman and Lorraine couldn’t do enough for their guests. We had a light and airy family room. The continental breakfast was generous. Dog friendly.

Stayed for one night. This was the perfect place. Great, central location, a warm welcome upon arrival and very nice room. Excellent cooked breakfast in the morning. Added to this, staff were very accommodating of requests and also very helpful with local knowledge. Would definitely book again.

We visited the Rising Sun whilst we were on a week's holiday in Bath. The owner Norman kindly put gammon steak on the specials board for us, which was very kind of him. The meal was so good we returned another two times to eat there. We had calamari which was good. My husband had ribs which were excellent. Another day we both had sirloin steak which was amazing in fact it was better than any 5 star restaurant. We highly recommend eating here as the standard is excellent. Good quality food and superb staff would definitely return when visiting Bath.

I’m so so pleased I booked this place for Sunday lunch. Everything was cooked to perfection... the roast beef was pink and so tender you didn’t even need a knife and there was a nice portion too.. the gravy was delicious, no bisto here! Roast potatoes and parsnips were crispy, cauliflower cheese was actually cheesy and all the veg was so flavourful and not forgetting the yorkshires which were homemade and huge! Wish I lived nearby I’d be a regular. Such a friendly and relaxed atmosphere and not pretentious or overpriced either.

I happened upon The Rising Sun by chance and I'm so pleased I did. After a long day sightseeing in Bath this welcoming, friendly traditional pub was exactly what I was looking for. As I was travelling alone, I was looking for somewhere welcoming, relaxed...

Absolutely incredible! We had pate, prawns, fish pie and the burger and all of them were amazing! The hospitality was incredible and we wish we were also staying the night. Will definitely be making another trip to Bath to visit this restaurant!

Great pub food and service. My steak was perfect and they had Timothy Taylor Landlord on tap! We sat inside and it wasn’t too crowded. Plus they are dog friendly!

Lovely place in a great location 👌 Management excellent Will definitely come back 😀 Dog friendly also 🐕

We stayed in the Oscar room which was at the top of the building. A warm welcome, clear advice and instructions and map of around Bath (which we needed!) and a clean room with a lovely en suite. It’s important to note this is not...

My husband come across this B&B and we are so pleased we booked a 2 night stay at the end of September 2021. The accommodation is perfectly located in Bath centre and parking wasn't an issue. We received a parking permit from Norman when we...

Visited when Bath Rugby were playing at home. Great welcome, great selection of beer and bar food. Hearsay suggested that the restaurant and rooms were even better. There's a special menu for rugby days. What a wonderful place in the centre of Bath but just...

Set in a side street in the centre of Bath, this is an English local where mine host runs the bar and mine hostess the restaurant which flows back from the bar area. A wonderfully relaxed atmosphere where the hosts clearly knew many of their...

Remember when you could get a decent roast out? Yes we had given up, until today. This is a proper roast, not a ‘new gastro nonsense plate arrangement’ - we are talking, cabbage, swede, roast parsnips and potatoes. Homemade Yorkshire’s, extra gravy without asking. Norman...

Stayed one night to take in the sights of Bath, booked this as great price and location. On arrival was a little unsure, however I could not have been more wrong. All the attractions only minutes walk away, able to park near the pub and...

We had a comfortable overnight stay. Received a warm welcome-from owner and general introduction to hotel. Well situated for Bath. We were sorry we could not stay any longer and would love to return again. We had a substantial continental breakfast. Thanks for a lovely...

Visited in early September 2021, a total heatwave. The hotel provided an upright fan which was a blessing. The owner was very organised in our 'induction' and told us all we needed to know as well as providing a Map of Bath. Room was lovely,...

Hotel is in a good location the owner is friendly who provided a good breakfast.. will be recommending it to family and friends... Thanks

Just returned from a short stay can not post any negatives lovely comfortable room really helpful hosts enjoyable continental breakfast we had a super evening meal in the pub / restaurant location is fantastic for visiting the sights of Bath will definitely return in the...

We don’t usually add a review after staying away but felt we needed to for this trip! We have just had a nights stay in this pub and were extremely disappointed by the lack of attention to detail. For example, making sure the rooms are...

To Norman and Lorraine and all the staff...may I send my gift of appreciation to you all for taking good care of myself and William over the last 12 months whilst we have been working away from home...your friendliness and warmth have not gone amiss...we send you our gratitude for all you have done for us..The Rising Sun is a little gem of a place tucked away in the heart of Bath...the rooms are lovely and are cleaned every day...the food is to die for and the quaint rear courtyard adds a little quirkiness to your visit...lined with flowers ferns and hanging baskets...we have thouroghly enjoyed our long long staycation and wish you all happiness success and prosperity...until we meet again God Bless you all...Malcolm and William x

Lovely, small, welcoming hotel with hosts who really care about their guests. We stayed only one night, passing through. The building is old and has lots of steps, but the room was fine - well appointed with everything you need. The bed was very comfortable and the shower very good. The breakfast was excellent! The position of the hotel was great - just a very short distance ffrom everything in Bath. B

I am of mature years (but can manage stairs which is essential here) and stayed on my own for this trip. I felt very relaxed. Friendly, warm, comfortable pub with delicious breakfasts and such a super position for Bath centre and walks along the river and canal. I ate dinner at the home of friends nearby but I would happily have eaten alone in the area reserved for B & B guests. I definitely will be back.

Sunday roast is so incredibly delicious that me and my partner have become regulars for the past 3 months with the exception of lockdown of course. The beef is succulent and tender. You get plenty of various fresh vegetables, scrumptious gravy and a yummy Yorkshire pudding. But it's not just the incredible food that sets this place apart from the very high standards in Bath: service is truly impeccable and very friendly at the same time, the Team are wonderful, they really make us feel so welcome every single time, we really enjoy returning time after time. We have tried literally every roast dinner establishment in Bath, this beats all hands down. Place is beautiful and you feel safe as COVID regulations are followed perfectly. Last but not least, it's excellent value for money. Couldn't recommend more!

On Sunday the 14th December we had the distinct please of visiting The Rising Sun for a Sunday lunch. We were made to feel very welcome and I must say I was very impressed with the COVID 19 measures put in place by the owners.The meal (Turkey Christmas dinner)was extraordinarily good. It was hot and well presented with plenty of veggies and perfectly cooked Turkey. The meal we enjoyed is something I’d be more than happy to enjoy at home on Christmas Day. It really was SO good!We planned on having a pudding each, but decided against it because we were full and we didn’t want to lose the lovely taste of the dinner. We left a good tip as we felt it warranted it and wanted to show our appreciation at giving us a pre Christmas glow.The Rising Sun in Bath will now be an essential visit whenever we’re in Bath. I’m closing a first class meal, first class service and first class hosts.Don’t delay, book it today as I promise you you’ll not regret it.Zoe & Ian Hick

A massve thank you to Lorraine, Norman and the team for hosting an enjoyable, and most importantly, covid safe stay at the Rising Sun. As we've posted before, this cracking pub ticks all the boxes for a visit to Bath and the way in which they're coping during these crazy times deserves total respect. Understandably, the covid rules, and their implementation,although applied sympathetically and regrettably, have to be rigid. It's in everyone's interest that they are. But we didn't feel restrained or restricted in any way. Well done, and thank you once again to all at the Rising Sun. Keep up the good work !

Fabulous Sunday lunch outside in the courtyard marquee complete with fire pit. Whilst it was chilly outside the welcome was warm and the food and service excellent. Great vegetarian option and delicious puddings. We shall return next time we are in Bath.

My wife and I met up with relatives and had a fantastic Sunday lunch at the Rising Sun, despite the need to sit outside in the rather cold temperatures because of the pandemic restrictions. The staff thawed us out with cups of coffee before servicing us a feast for lunch. We definitely will be back in the future to enjoy the food and hospitality again but hopefully in warmer and safer times.

Great location, nice room. Lovely staff. If you book with booking.com you only get a continental breakfast which was nice and plentiful, evening meal was overpriced, bland and tasteless. We were not advised that there were road works outside and that we would have to walk far for a parking space even though we spoke to them the day before! Hosts were OVER regimental with COVID guidelines, as we stood in the doorway before even saying hello we were told VERY loudly to put our mask on, they were in ours hands ready to put on as soon as we had actually entered! We were then MARCHED around their one way system, out in to the rain! We're all for following guidelines but there is a way to speak to adults and unfortunately they didn't know how, we felt like and were treated like,we were back at school! Won't be returning!

Delicioso asado con todos los adornos, el personal fue muy amable y acogedor. Teníamos asados de ternera y cerdo, y cada uno tenía un postre (pudín de caramelo pegajoso y pastel de chocolate) y no me puedo quejar de nada. Se implementaron todas las medidas de Covid-19, y todo el personal usó máscaras y mantuvo la distancia siempre que fue posible. Sistema unidireccional muy bien diseñado también. ¡Definitivamente uno que no debe perderse en Bath y volveremos pronto!

Esta fue la mejor cena asada que habíamos tenido en un pub. Llegamos temprano y verificamos si esto estaba bien, recibimos la bienvenida más cordial y nos dijeron que no se preocuparan. Quedamos impresionados con tanta hospitalidad. Un amable caballero nos llevó a nuestra mesa y nos invitó a pedir bebidas. Todo fue fácil y cómodo durante estos tiempos extraños.La señorita que nos atendió fue super amable y servicial. Ambos comimos rosbif que estaba cocinado a la perfección, nos encanta la carne rara y había mucha. Las verduras eran abundantes y bellamente cocinadas, todas sabían deliciosas. Las patatas asadas estaban esponjosas en el medio y crujientes por fuera y los budines de Yorkshire estaban bien. Todo esto fue coronado por una salsa fabulosamente sabrosa. Nos las arreglamos para exprimir en un pudín de caramelo pegajoso compartido que estaba súper pegajoso servido con helado.La comida, el vino y el servicio fueron excelentes y una excelente relación calidad-precio sin duda volveremos.

Encantador hotel limpio, que se tomó a covid en serio. Nos alojamos dos noches aquí, con nuestros dos Jack Russell's, Norman y Lorraine fueron muy acogedores y amables, ¡amables con nuestros perros también! El hotel estaba muy bien limpio, buen desayuno y muy cerca del centro de la ciudad. Ya lo hemos recomendado a nuestros padres ancianos que quieren un descanso pero nerviosos alrededor de Covid.¡Muchas gracias por invitarnos a quedarnos!

Decidimos quedarnos de camino a casa desde Cornwall. Encontré este pequeño y encantador lugar y qué gran descubrimiento. El anfitrión es brillante y buena protección de covid en todo momento. La habitación que teníamos estaba limpia y ordenada, un poco ruidosa por la mañana con la calle afuera, pero su base en la ciudad, así que debería esperarse. Comimos en el restaurante por la noche y la comida era excelente, así como el servicio. El desayuno también fue excelente. Este es un hotel que admite perros, así que fue bueno para nosotros. Recomiendo encarecidamente este hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay the hotel had very polite & helpful staff And our room was very clean and spacious and they did a great breakfast the next morning.very happy and would visit again.

Would visit again and possibly staying it weete just the two of us. Great home cooked fresh food, good service and well organised COVID arrangements. Right in city.

Reservé 1 noche de alojamiento y recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar. La ubicación es excelente, cerca del puente Pulteney y el centro de Bath está a poca distancia a pie.La habitación era de buen tamaño y estaba muy limpia, con baño en suite con ducha. Se prestó mucha atención a la situación de Covid-19, que fue buena. Té y café en la habitación también es agradable.El desayuno caliente que se sirve al aire libre era encantador. Norman, el propietario, fue muy servicial y acogedor. Puede aparcar fuera de la posada utilizando el permiso de estacionamiento 5 que también puede obtener en el pub.Volveré aquí seguro.

Took family. Lovely welcome and fab pint. The burgers are awesome. Highly recommended. Off the tourist trail but worth it as the locals love it.

Mi esposo y yo nos fuimos en nuestra casa rodante por primera vez desde COVID, así que estaba un poco preocupado por cómo serían las cosas. Este fue el primer pub al que fuimos, el propietario fue genial y nos explicó muy bien cómo ordenar qué caminos caminar, lo hizo muy cómodo y nos sentimos realmente relajados. Muy encantador pub y el propietario Defo volverá.

What a treat! A last minute business trip! The Social Distancing controls and what’s put in place was really reassuring and made me feel at ease.Rooms really comfy, I slept like a log and not to mention the awesome biscuits!I had my breakfast in the beautiful courtyard which was yummy and proper coffee!Both Lorraine and Norman made me feel so welcome and a giggle to chat to!For sure i will be back soon!Thanks so much for looking after me

We couldn't have been happier with our stay. Very friendly hosts, lovely rooms, lots of charm, very clean. Food was delicious and excellent value. Looking forward to returning.

This was the first time we had eaten at The Rising Sun and we had a fabulous experience! We were a large group and the owners were extremely accommodating when we had to change booking numbers a couple of times. We all had Sunday roasts which were delicious and extremely generous portions. Three of our party had the nut roast and said it was the best they had ever eaten! The service was excellent - quick and friendly. We will definitely be returning very soon!

This tucked away pub on the other side of Pulteney bridge proved to be a great choice for Sunday lunch. I had what was probably the best nut roast ever and there were plenty of tasty veg to go along with it.

Myself and my partner stayed and dined at the Rising Sun Inn. We had an amazing time. From the moment we walked in to check - in, we was greeted with a warm welcome. Shown around the place to highlight wher breakfast was, entrances and exits at certain times of the day. The room was delightful, bright and cheery however the only thing I would say, is that you can hear alot of noise/all conversations and movements from the rooms next door or above. This however, did not bother us. We enjoyed our time downstairs in the pub where we had a glass of wine and beer. Delightful.We then went on to booking a table in the restuarant area and dined with one of the best steak meals I have ever had! I love my steaks and tend to be very judgemental on the way they are cooked but the Rising Sun Inn blew me away! The steaks were cooked beautifully with a wonderful selection of a side salad. The homemade chips were great and plenty of food for your money. We of course, finished the lot! We have already said we shall be returning in the summer and most definetely having dinner once more.Thank you for a brilliant stay!!

Came here for my birthday. Sunday lunch. Absolutely spot on. Food,service and atmosphere a real treat. Its my go to pub for a roast. Thank you for making my birthday perfect. Norman and Lorraine. Xxx

Lovely Sunday roast with generous portions , great service and cosy atmosphere and good price. We booked in advance to make sure we had a table.

Found this place on tripadvisor and initially came in the evening for dinner but they weren’t serving food that night, we stayed for a drink and were kindly given some other suggestions. We went back after dinner for another drink and went back the following night for dinner and were not disappointed. Great food, generous servings and very reasonably priced. Norman was a fantastic and friendly host. The location is excellent, right by Pulteney Bridge and wish we had found it sooner so could have stayed there as well. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Bath.

Sunday roast.. we live in Bath and have challenged ourselves to find the best pub roast. Someone had to do it..And we've found it. Perfect roast potatoes, parsnips, gravy on the side, help yourself to vegetables. Do not like it when my plate comes full and swimming in gravy. But, word is out, so important to book because the pub only does 40 covers for Sunday roast. Unless of course, by prior arrangement. Chef is a delight. Enjoy!

Had a lovely Sunday roast with 15 family members for my daughter’s 18th. The welcome was great, very helpful and the food was excellent. The Cauliflower cheese was amazing. Everyone enjoyed their meal... would definitely recommend. Thank you

Pasé una noche aquí para el cumpleaños de un amigo. Teníamos una habitación familiar que estaba decorada muy bien y estaba equipada con nevera, tetera y secador de pelo. Norman fue muy acogedor y nos explicó todo.Hay estacionamiento con permiso en la calle solo, así que estacionamos en el estacionamiento de Charlotte Street a un costo de 15 por 24 horas y estuvimos a 15 minutos a pie del hotel.El hotel está en una ubicación céntrica, a poca distancia de tiendas, bares y restaurantes.

I booked this for Sunday after Christmas at lunchtime a while ago, thought it would be heaving, quiet when we arrived at 12.30pm but others arrived. There was a huge table set for a large party expected at 3pm. We loved the low key but friendly service. The roast pork and roast chicken were both really good. Seriously good veg, cauliflower cheese, swede/carrot, greens, Yorkshire puddings ... very generous portions and the roast potatoes and parsnips were sublime and we are particular!

A bad choice of lunch venue whilst in Bath. We arrived looking for a cosy pub but didn’t find the bar very inviting. We decided to eat here and the fish and chips weren’t properly cooked. They were changed for us but the second portion was smaller and still undercooked. Not the most welcoming place either - maybe one for the locals?

Everything you will ever need for a wonderful stay in Bath. Very comfortable and spacious room, comfy beds and very clean. A fridge too, very useful for medication or room snacks and milk for a brew. Two large windows that open for fresh air and a huge bathroom.

Wonderful Christmas lunch for 26 volunteers. Excellent choice of menu , perfect service and great food. Great venue for a dedicated group , centrally situated with accessible room. Thank you Norman, Lorraine and staff Trevor and CRT Volunteers

We make sure we call in here each year we've been to Bath, it is a very nice pub, good service and a nice place to chill. Off the beaten track but worth finding.

We spent last weekend in Bath and having seen the excellent reviews on here about the Rising Sun's Sunday lunch, we phoned on Sunday morning and luckily due to a cancellation were able to reserve a table for two. I had roast beef & my OH had the roast chicken - both were absolutely delicious. The quality of food and customer service were fantastic, and service was nice & quick. Our meals were a really generous portion size and came with a lovely assortment of veg, roast potatoes, cauliflower leek cheese (yum!) and the roast meat was really delicious. We both really enjoyed our meal here & would definitely recommend. We'll definitely be back the next time we return to Bath!

I booked a table here for 12 people which I totally forgot to cancel. We have had a family emergency over the weekend and I was very pre occupied. Whilst I appreciate that this is incredibly frustrating for the restaurant these things do happen and you need to know how to deal with situations like this.

Visited this pub for Sunday lunch and were really impressed. A brilliant choice of Sunday roast, as well as other options. The food was hot and a good selection of vegetables. Not the cheapest but on par with other places in the area. Very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Would definitely come again if we are in the area.

Found this spot via tripadvisor and v glad we dined here. We were visiting for rugby, when I phoned to book Lorraine initially said sorry we dont do evenings on rugby days as lunches are so busy. I told her its a 1pm kickoff so they stayed open for us! Absolutely excellent dinners all round, delicious food, generous portions and good value. Lorraine and "Butch" (sorry, did'nt get your name!) were charming and chatty, all in all it was a memorable evening to round off a great day (Ulster won!)

We had booked a table for Sunday lunch having read the good reviews and were not disappointed. Perfectly done meats, and an abundance of vegetables which try as we might we could not get through! Really nice relaxed atmosphere and a lovely fire going as well.

We had a fabulous Sunday lunch today to celebrate a number of birthdays.

We stayed just 1 night, and found this small B&B; just perfect. Great location, very clean, and the staff cannot do enough to accomdate your needs. Would stay again if visiting Bath

Our 2nd visit after discovering this gem on a Sunday and the Sunday Lunch is just incredibly good.

Habíamos marchado por Bath disfrutando del ambiente y decidimos que era hora de almorzar. Al principio, el Sol Naciente parece bastante normal, incluso al entrar parece que podría mejorar con una actualización. Espera, te escucho decir, ¿por qué darle 5 estrellas? Weellllll. . . . . . En mi opinión, una calificación de 5 estrellas no se basa en interiores llamativos o cubiertos brillantes o un camarero que se inclina y raspa. Para mí, una calificación de 5 estrellas es indescriptible, es una sensación que obtienes mientras estás allí. una camarera que sonríe, un frente de la casa que es ingenioso y alegre, un chef que conoce su mercado y los precios que son justos. El Sol Naciente me dio esa sensación, así que sí, se puede describir una calificación de 5 estrellas. Lástima que vivo a millas del lugar, de lo contrario volvería de forma regular, si vives cerca o estás de visita, pruébalo.

Reservamos una mesa en el último minuto el domingo por la mañana basándonos en las buenas críticas aquí, estábamos en Bath para visitar a nuestro hijo en la universidad y estuvimos extremadamente agradecidos de encontrar un lugar para alojar a una fiesta de 7.

Booked a table at the last minute when visiting daughter in Uni. One of the best Sunday lunches out we've had. Beef, Pork and Chicken were superb as were the plentiful vegetables. Service was also brilliant. Looking forward to returning soon! Thanks very much.

Before making the reservation, after doing a bit of research I got the impression the Rising Sun Inn was one of the best places to dine when visiting Bath. So with my expectations set, I booked a table for 2 for my wife and I.

I never write reviews but my lunch today deserves one. I'm also hard to please....this Sunday lunch was up there with the best i have had. Every element of the roast full of flavour....I had a veggie nut roast..delish and the veggie gravy (Which is usually a let down elsewhere) was dark and rich. The service was warm and welcoming which added to the experience. I recommend and I can't wait to go back.

Wonderful sunday roast, lovely atmosphere, friendly service, amazing food. The gravy and Beef were superb and the sticky toffee pudding is to die for.Do it!

We had a delicious Sunday lunch here first time even though it is on our doorstep the roast potatoes were wonderful and very tender beef . Pudding was far too nice will be dreaming of them for a wile. Our hosts were the nicest most genuine couple made us feel very welcome unfortunately unlike a rather loud table next to us who obviously took a dislike to us we should have asked to be moved but that does seem a bit embarrassing but we were not put off by this just giggled each to their own.

Absolutely thrilled to find this one. Just off the Main Street so perfect location in a quiet street. Lovely rooms and wonderful breakfast. Pub food menu looks amazing. Dog friendly too.

Perfectly cooked beef with the perfect amount of crispy roast potatoes and vegetables. Always friendly service from all the staff there. The garden is extremely relaxing to sit in- 100% recommend.

My husband and I recently stayed at the rising sun inn and was so pleased with this little gem of a place. It was ideally located for all the sites and shops around the city. Norman and Lorrain were the perfect hosts, helpful with information of what to see and how to get there, nothing was too much trouble! We can recommend their food, its second to none, we ate every night in their restaurant having found it to be excellent food and good quality for money!!! We were also pleasantly surprised that having booked direct we were entitled to a cooked breakfast (large and delicious) though the continental breakfast had plenty on offer. We stayed in room 2 and I was brought to tears being in the quaintest of rooms, rural décor and French shutters to the windows. When waking up in the morning, overlooking the rooftops the view is that of a beautiful church steeple!!!! Thank you both for a wonderful stay with you, we look forward to staying again on our next visit to bath. SONIA AND MARK

We stayed here 2 adults and 2 children in a very comfortable room for one night. The owner was very welcoming and friendly and the room was perfect for all of us to be together, clean and comfortable. Wonderful breakfast with everything you would want to start your day. Great location and would definately stay again on our next visit to Bath.

Great service, excellent food, nice garden. A little gem with a lovely host. It's worth seeking out. We'll definitely be back.

Non posso che dare il massimo a questo pub-hotel. Ci ha fatto sentire come a casa. Rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimo. Vorrei segnalare soprattutto la cena: non andate da nessuna altra parte a cenare, il cibo qui è fantastico, buonissimo ed economico per gli standard di Bath. Ottima colazione e birre superbe! In pienissimo centro, con possibilità di parcheggio (5£ al giorno). Il proprietario e’ stato simpaticissimo (adorabile) abbiamo parlato un po’ di tutto. Ci ha permesso di restare in giardino anche dopo l’orario di chiusura (e abbiamo rispettato il silenzio richiestoci). Sicuramente da ritornarci! Consigliatissimo!

Four of us went there for Sunday lunch, food amazing, high quality meat cooked to perfection, lovely roasties fresh veg and cauliflower cheese yummy, loved the gravy and requested more and out came a large jug Bravo to the chef would thoroughly recommend the beef, also Specials on board if you fancy something different. Finished off with a fab apple crumble and custard, would certainly go back, it was very busy but we had pre booked. So maybe booking recommended.

Stanza poco pulita, difficilmente accessibile, con moquette davvero sporca. Non credo davvero che il prezzo pagato possa essere giustificato da una struttura del genere. La colazione scarna, con prodotti per lo più confezionati. Deludente, viste le precedenti recensioni. Mi spiace, non solo non lo consiglio, ma é proprio da tenersi alla larga.

What an amazing find. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, had lunch dinner and breakfast. All excellent. Would definitely stay here again as the location for visiting Bath is great. Thank you so very much to all the staff and to the owners who helped make my wife's birthday so memorable.

Only stayed for one night but wish we could of stayed longer. Best location ever, 5 minute walk to centre, restaurants, bars and shops. Parking is on street but you get a permit from pub 5 pounds a day. Rooms good size, clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. Had dinner there and our meal was delicious. Seafood linguine was amazing. Husband had pork belly which he really enjoyed. Great chef.!! Would definitely recommend.

Been meaning to leave a review for ages! THE NICEST ROAST ever, came here with the family and everyone loved it. Would highly recommend to everyone!!!

A little walk from Putteney Bridge is this pub/B&B;.

We ate our Sunday lunch here. We had prawns for our starter which was on the specials board. I had roast beef and my partner had roast chicken. We both said it was the best roast we had eaten out in ages. The portion size was big and really good value for money. The couple that run the restaurant were very friendly and welcoming. We would definitely recommend visiting here to eat.

We had a lovely room with very flexible check in given we were off and about most of the day. The breakfast was beyond delicious - chef knows his craft. While Bath can be full of travelers and students, this B&B; is tucked away on a side street - quiet yet easily walkable to every point of interest as well as the train/bus station.

After visiting the lavender farm near Bath we fancied a roast and at such short notice we found it difficult to find a restaurant that wasn’t full. Fortunately after some googling we came across the Rising Sun. I was with my partner, sister and our toddler. Our toddler was having a melt down to say the least and the restaurant staff were very understanding. We went for a chicken, pork and beef and a cottage pie for our daughter. All came very promptly with plenty of veg and very tasty gravy. My partner said his pork crackling was particularly good. The Yorkshire puddings were to die for and I could have eaten a few :) the beef looked melt in the mouth and all very hot. We will definitely be back.

For a dog friendly hotel to stay over this is a wonderful bed & breakfast.

A real shame the the welcome is not as good quality as the pictures on the website!

What a wonderful bed & breakfast. Free parking on the roads as long as you stayed at this place. The owners even allowed us to stay after we checked out and use the free parking of the inn. It was very quaint, owners lovely and the food was fantastic. We were here as a family and we all had to try the famous Fish & Chips. We ate it the way the English did with vinegar. Coming from the states, we never tasted Fish & Chips the way it was made here and never tasted it as good in other places we visited in England. The rooms were on the second and third floor. Each of the rooms had their own bathroom and there was excellent water pressure. Coming here, you really get the feel of how the English lived back in the day. The Inn was about a mile from the Roman Baths. Highly recommend this wonderful place.

Cenato durante una vista in città seguendo le indicazioni di T.A. devo dire con assoluta soddisfazione: cibo ottimo e sicuramente preparato al momento vista la giusta attesa. Locale leggermente decentrato ma facilmente raggiungibile con pochi passi. Una menzione particolare alla simpatia di Norman (titolare ?) un po' sulle sue all'inizio ma molto socievole alla fine. Suggerisco

Tratando de evitar los escalones llenos de gente desde Pulteney Wier hasta el puente, caminamos por debajo del túnel (donde tenía flashbacks a Tiergarten ...) y subimos por Grove Street para recordar que es donde terminé con un grupo diferente de personas. Hace 3 años, la similitud era que en ambas ocasiones habíamos llegado a Bath en un bote estrecho.

Cenamos en este acogedor local una sabrosa cena británica, el dueño muy atento y agradable. Para repetir si volvemos.
