The Upton Inn in Bath and North East Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A wonderful roast dinner in a gorgeous pub. It’s a bit more £ than average but worth it. Staff are attentive and friendly and we were lucky to get the captains table stocked with games to entertain the 4 small children with us. Would absolutely return because there are more desserts I need to try!!

We had a Sunday lunch and it was cold when we asked for it to be hot it came back warm and it was £24 per person will not be going back ( not good)

So lovely to see an old pub brought back to life. Well worth the wait for refurbishment. Had a delightful Sunday lunch there with the family and dog today. Super relaxed atmosphere with a fantastic level of service. The pecan pie is to die for (the generous helping of chantilly cream was particularly appreciated by the dog 😉😆). Can also recommend the espresso martini - #cheekytreat . We will definitely be visiting again 😍

Popped up there for a quiet drink love the place been back manny times food is amazing, top quality staff and I here live music will be coming what more could you ask for.

Had Sunday lunch the food was excellent good choice of ale and drinks would recommend going to this pub the service is brilliant

Last month I visited the Upton with my son for the first time since it had exchanged hands. My wife had previously regularly visited the pub for a walk with our dog and a meal afterwards. This was my son’s first visit to the pub and I had built up his expectations on what it was going to be like. Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the experience which began with the seating arrangement. Despite reserving a table before setting out for a walk, we were placed in a separate area from the main area of the pub, right next to the door to the toilets. This experience significantly marred what was supposed to be an enjoyable meal. The location of the table was highly undesirable for several reasons. Firstly, being isolated from the main dining area made us feel disconnected from the vibrant atmosphere that I was looking forward to. The main area of the pub was filled with lively conversations and pleasant ambiance, while the secluded area felt more like an afterthought, lacking the same charm and energy. Secondly, the proximity to the toilets was incredibly off-putting. Throughout the meal, there was a constant flow of people going in and out, which was both distracting and unpleasant. The frequent opening and closing of the door made it difficult to enjoy the food and conversation. The whole experience made it hard to relax and enjoy my meal with the continuous interruptions. This placement made what should have been a special evening feel more like a hurried and uncomfortable affair. Having reserved a table if this was the only option this should have been pointed out, though I did feel that the placement was deliberate and we were dealt with differently rather the staff hand being forced because of limited space. The food did not deliver on the quality that I have come to expect from the Upton, so this just rubbed salt in to the wounds. Doubly disappointing since my parents have lived in the area for 50 years and we wished to support the new owners of the pub. In conclusion, I will not be hurrying back and I hope that the staff can more inclusive in their behaviour.

Great pub for good food and a £10 lunch as well. We were welcomed on arrival and shown to our table. The staff were attentive and gave us ample time to peruse the menu. We didn't feel rushed and had a pleasant and leisurely lunch were looked after very well.

I really want to say 5 Stars. The pub has an amazing atmosphere, the beers are GREAT, staff AMAZING. I had a pie on Pie night, extremely fairly / low priced, however I’m suspicious the mash was Smash. I like to see a lump in my mash if not just to prove it’s real. We watched another table discussing exactly the same. With just the smallest adjustments this could really be the best in the area. If you had The Cross House food with the Upton Inn’s atmosphere you’ve cracked it! Please keep this place open and push for just a little touch better from the Chef.

Under new ownership and it really really shows. Come for Sunday lunch and the carvery was brilliant. It tasted fresh with a good selection. Had the Vegan roast and well worth it! Beer was good too. Cannot fault the service in any way and the owners definitely believe in customer satisfaction. Well worth a visit. Dog friendly and a big car park.

We had previously visited before under previous ownership. The Sunday roast was lovely. The pub has had a refurb. Staff were amazing. Would definitely return.

A lovely quirky place. It was full of antiques that the Landlord has collected and displays around the interior. Very friendly and helpful staff and good food

We have been visiting this pub now for over 15 years, and it has always been our go to for a nice evening out. We were so excited to hear it was to be re-opened under new management, so we eagerly anticipated our first visit. Upon arriving, the landlord and staff were extremely friendly and something I do want to reiterate, is how hard they are trying to make this a success. My review is just constructive criticism for them to hopefully improve over the coming months :) A lovely lady handed us the menus, however we were a little disappointed at the choices. We have a vegetarian in our family and it seemed as though she only had one option. The food arrived, and whilst beautifully presented, was not much more than a starter. It lacked taste and flavour and was quite disappointing for the increased prices. I had the fish, and whilst it wasn’t bad at all, it just didn’t seem to compete with other pubs in the area at the same price point. I have no doubt Julian and his team will continue to improve and I really hope this lovely pub is able to be done justice.

This is local for me and has always been a little Gem. It was closed for a while and I feared the worst. It's just wow......it's even more relaxed, where you just instantly feel chilled and relaxed. Visited twice now and have to say the drinks on offer are fantastic. Beer my go to ....three cask ales all superbly kept and served in a glass of your choice that they ask on your selection. Good craft on tap. A selection of homemade gins, (marmalade and fig is amazing) and loads of single malts all of which that I personally love. Bar staff are fantastic and add to the super relaxed atmosphere that all the family loved.....even think my three month old grand daughter loved it Hard to pick out the best thing really. It's all top drawer Landlord has created a very very special place

Fantastic food, lovely staff!! Came by recommendation and wasn’t disappointed! Only wish we lived nearer! Great place!

First time trying here after the reopening and we will definitely be back the food was delicious! good service and a lovely decor with a cosy/romantic feel.

Great to see this popular village pub & restaurant re-open. Went there with friends to celebrate a birthday, had a lovely well cooked & presented meal. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Good selection of ales, lagers, wines & spirits. Will definitely be going back & can highly recommend it. Well worth the visit.

Stunning Sunday lunch, absolutely brilliant service from every single member of the team. New owners are absolutely so friendly and welcoming can't wait to come back. We had every type of roast available between us and couldn't fault any meal the lamb, pork, beef and chicken were all stunning.

This is a real hug of a pub, it’s cosy and friendly. The food was delicious, we had the roast pork, The owner was very attentive and the staff very helpful. There is a good selection of beers on tap and decor is stunning. I would 100% recommend and will definitely be going back to try the beef, lamb and chicken.

Just returned this evening (20 April 2024) from a lovely meal at The Upton. Recently opened around four weeks ago and the decor is homely with velvet seating and candles. We enjoyed the plaice and the battered hake, both very enjoyable being well presented, fresh and tasty and hot. Pudding was apple crumble with clotted cream - delightful. Hospitality was very welcoming and the new owners introduced themselves to each table and were very enthusiastic as were the staff. Cant wait for our next visit soon!

Visited for lunch today. Really warm welcome, great service and delicious food! Menu is still quite small, but plenty to select from, freshly cooked and super tasty! The warm pecan tart was superb with fabulous light pastry and not too sweet a filling.

Lovely country pub - good food and friendly atmosphere. We went with friends and the dog for Sunday lunch and will certainly go again.

Called in on a wet Wednesday night and greeted with a smile and warm welcome. The food was great with a special take on a burger with real slices of beef presented well with BBQ beans and very tasty fries, the fish dish was crispy with large flakes of fish. If you haven't been here for a while the new owners (only opened for the past 3 weeks) and staff and food will make you return again for sure. I never usually leave any reviews but this seams a little secret that should be shared. Many thanks.

Went for Sunday lunch. Lovely friendly welcome and attentive service throughout. Small but good choice of starters - we both had the mushrooms which were delicious. We were expecting a carvery but were delighted that the Sunday roast came out as a beautifully presented plated meal. I asked for my beef to be well done and this was no problem at all. As with the starters there was a small but good choice of puddings. We understand from the owner Julian that all the menus will be slowly expanded. Perhaps a choice of ice cream would be a good addition. Altogether a superb meal and we will definitely be coming back.

It’s fair to say our fav pub is well and truly back!! Have both enjoyed drinks here since our youth and decided to have a girly lunch. Weather looked dodge so reluctantly drove and enjoyed it so much had to leave car and get collected😂. Food was lovely, and chocolate mouse was to die for. Same ambience and lovely decor but staff very different to our last visit with the previous owners! Super friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. Throw in home made gin and what can I say. My only criticism, it should be closer to Oldland or at least move the huge hill in between. Will def be getting fitter through the summer though! A triumphant re-opening.

Amazing cosy feel pub in a beautiful location. One of the best burgers I have ever had. Staff were super friendly would thoroughly recommend.

A wonderful atmospheric country pub, the new owner has made an incredible job of refurbishing the lovely county pub. The welcome was warm as was the lovely roaring fire. We had Sunday lunch, which was stunning all fresh and beautifully presented the staff were welcoming and helpful. They serve San Miguel 0% on draft, which for me was a revelation, tasted amazing and enabled being able to drive out for a meal and not have to drink soft drinks. Great venue, I cannot recommend it highly enough. I will be back for sure.

Wow, Sunday roast was amazing, both pork and beef were cooked to perfection. All my favourite vegetables on one plate yum. Staff showed fantastic customer service. Very friendly atmosphere, very cosy by the fire. Landlord Julian was very welcoming. We live half an hour way from the pub, husband came across this pub by chance. We will definitely be coming again in the future. Would highly recommend.

Lovely food, great veggie option , unusual but soooo tasty , lovely atmosphere great staff glad to see it open again , dog friendly too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟. Will be back very soon !

Wonderful atmosphere as soon as you walk in the door. Great bar, friendly staff and a lovely Landlord. The Upton is certainly back and better than ever. We only stopped for a drink but the food looked amazing, can't wait to return.

Just re-opened and was absolutely fantastic. Such a warm welcome, all the staff very friendly, food was top notch as well. Lookingvforward to going back very soon

Great to have the Upton back. Wonderfully sympathetically updated inside with a great range of beers. Looking forward to many, many future visits.

Lovely to see the place returned to its former glory and better! Very welcoming ambience and relaxed environment. 10/10

My son and I visited this pub on its opening night after an extensive closure for refurb. The new landlord, Julian was most welcoming, the choice of beers excellent and the food looked fantastic, with great quality locally sourced produce. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Undercooked tasteless lack of anything that was vegetarian . The staff were friendly enough but the the food wasn’t very good at all. We had a roast and although I am vegetarian my husband isn’t. He said the meat was extremely chewy and the veg was undercooked.

I have been using this pub/restaurant for many years. It was fine as it was as a country pub. They are trying to make it posh. Not suited to the venue

Visited this venue for lunch. The staff were very friendly but I’m afraid the food was up to scratch as in the past. The vegetables were undercooked and the meat very chewy. The vegetarian option for a roast was also undercooked. Needless to say will give this one a miss next time.

Best pub meal for a long time. We had the seafood platter and the pork ribeye, absolutely delicious. Service was welcoming, quick and courteous, even our dogs were catered for with treats and water. Wouldn’t hesitate to return

Visited for lunch today after a round of golf. Very busy and we had to wait about 30mins. This didn’t matter and was completely forgotten when the food arrived. Excellent. Restaurant quality. My congratulations to the chef. Only feedback would be you need more staff. There was far to much work for the 2 front of house

We had the misfortune to go on 23 April for late lunch on a Sunday. They should not have taken our booking in hindsight. Our party was 6 adults and a 5 year old. Initially we were told sit outside to await a table at...

Traditional country pub: quaint and cosy. We went for a meal earlier this week. Good selection for veggies. The coriander, chilli and mozzarella bread was delicious, as was the Thai red curry. Really good range of dishes: I would recommend both as a local pub...

Having had some pretty shoddy experiences at local hostelries recently, it was refreshing to be acknowledged and greeted as soon as we walked through the door. Muddy boots and dog were welcomed with a smile and we were directed to the 'doggy station' to help...

Roast was disappointing, chicken tasted old and not freshly cooked. For £16 I expected a certain level of freshness which was lacking. I understand Sundays are busy but I’ve had better roast potatoes at cheaper establishments.

We come here a lot (or used to) and we always thought the food was very good and the service friendly and a welcoming atmosphere . Last Saturday came early for dinner and we ended up waiting nearly 1 1/ 2 hours for the main...

This place is highly recommended, brilliant attention to detail. Food was excellent and lunch menu was excellent. Even the high chair supplied was like one from home , other pubs need to take note of this. Will be back again.

4 of us finished our walk at the Upton. We had some drinks outside, with crisps and (Marshfield) ice creams The salted caramel ice cream is great with coffee, and the service was excellent

Visited today for a Sunday Lunch. We were very grateful that they could accommodate us, as we only booked 20 mins prior to our table booking. We ordered two children’s meals, a lamb roast (from specials board) and the beef roast from the menu (supposedly...

What is the point of a pub which invites people to telephone to book a table, but then never answers the 'phone? We rang the previous evening - no answer nor any answering machine. We rang several times in the day - again, no answer....

I would highly recommend trying this pub. It's definitely off the beaten track but well worth the visit. I had the fully loaded burger which was amazing. I was well and truly stuffed afterwards. Very dog friendly and our little dog was treated as well...

Visited this pub today with some trepidation after approx 2 yeats as on a couple of previous visits were not impressed, but can now report that cant wait to return as the meals and service were excellent! .

Had really lovely meal at the Upton Inn. Great traditional surroundings, spacious, excellent service and delicious food from a good menu.

Visited yesterday for a long awaited family meal. Service was amazing with very attentive staff. Sunday roast was excellent- enormous with loads of extra vegetables and fabulous puddings too

Dreadful experience Food less than average Staff lacking in social skills Decor totally out of keeping with the history of the pub

We always have something at the weekend from the baps n' snacks menu and it's always great quality, hearty food. We had takeaway pizzas tonight and they were so delicious. Such friendly service and a lovely local pub. Would definitely recommend!

We had wonderful soup, curry and sticky toffee pudding, happy to recommend. With the menu it gives us something to look forward to next weekend.Loved the fact that the packaging was eco friendly, was a bonus for us. Well doneStaff helpful and the set up Covid compliant.

Super impressed with the Upton! We had two take away roast dinners because of lockdown. I was a little skeptical, but wow, they were great! I really couldn’t fault service and quality. Looking forward to seeing you face to face!

Just had a fantastic Sunday lunch take away, Roast pork and crackling and Yorkshire pudding and so much veg, gravy was delicious too! Followed by their sticky toffee pudding, delicious. Fantastic value for money and will definitely visit them when lockdown ends.

Highly recommend the Upton Inn to anybody looking for some good pub grub! In these uncertain times of covid it's wonderful that they have opened up a takeaway service and the menu has a fabulous variety of meals.I had the spicy chicken burger, which was the yummiest meal that I've ever eaten and I thourghly enjoyed it (thank you to all of the amazing chefs!)High quality ingredients, fresh, warm and extremely tasty! The portion amount was so generous and definitely the bestest burger that I've eaten. Will be back for more and highly recommend! Xx

Saturday night with friends on a rainy dark night.Lovely clean and spacious pub, very good and large menu and happy efficient staff.I had faggots, mash and veg with gravy which was very tasty, I wasn’t going to have a dessert and then I saw bread and butter pudding with custard and couldn’t resist, so glad I did it was stunning.I would recommend this pub and will be going back again as everything was so good.

Our first night in the area, we walked up to the Upton Inn for a meal. Great service, great food, can not fault the place.

Mi compañero y yo comimos el domingo y no me puedo quejar. Mi compañero comió el pollo y le encantó, yo comí el cerdo que era hermoso, y descubrí que era orgánico después de hablar con la camarera. Todo el personal estaba lleno de sonrisas y muy acogedor. Definitivamente lo recomiendo y volveremos. Realmente no me puedo quejar de este pub.

¡Planeamos nuestro paseo de perros de 3 millas alrededor de nuestra visita a esta joya escondida! La comida era deliciosa, no podemos quejarnos de nada. El servicio de mesa fue realmente acogedor y te hizo sentir relajado para disfrutar de toda la experiencia. Tanto el personal como el propietario fueron encantadores y ofrecieron un nivel profesional de servicio. Gracias volveremos.

Nuestra primera visita a Upton Inn durante un par de años y no nos decepcionó. Hemos visitado este pub muchas veces durante los últimos 25 años y siempre hemos estado contentos con la comida y el servicio. Esta noche fue nuestra primera visita de encierro y estuvo magníficamente organizada. Mucho espacio entre las mesas y numerosas precauciones coviditas sin inhibir la encantadora atmósfera que es The Upton Inn. Absolutamente excelente servicio con comida de primera categoría en todos y cada uno de los platos. Gracias Upton Inn, ¡el placer fue todo nuestro! PD: realmente se admiten perros mega con golosinas para perros gratis para cada visitante

Very attractive, characterful pub, with friendly staff. Delicious mackerel & new potato salad followed by apple & cinnamon crumble. Everything very clean and nicely decorated. Very impressed, not local but keen to come back.

Comimos en familia y nos dieron una gran mesa en la zona exterior detrás del pub, que era muy acogedor y limpio. El menú era variado y emocionante y no decepcionó. Los adultos y los niños quedaron realmente impresionados con su comida, que era muy sabrosa y porciones de buen tamaño. El servicio fue increíble, todo el personal fue educado y atento y se tomaban la seguridad muy en serio. ¡Definitivamente volveremos!

What a very tasty curry. I had chicken. My dad had vegetable Thai curry. Both were excellent. Apple Pie for dessert.. Very generous portion, very tasty. Great customer service from the 2 friendly women behind the bar. Well worth a visit.

Great home cooked food and a menu with plenty of variety including vegan. Good range of draft beers and ciders. Outside seating for the summer. Location - the pub is in Upton Cheyney not in Bath town centre. Roughly half way between Keynsham and Bath.

Booked late at approx. 11:30 for a mid day sitting. Accommodated 7 of us for Carvery. Lovely meal, very helpful staff.Only potential recommendations would be potentially adding mash potato to their selection of vegetables, and also a table ‘tab’ facility.Would definitely recommend. Keep up the good work

One of the best carvery’s I’ve had. The choice of veg was fab and the quality of all the food was great. The staff were helpful and very friendly! Lovely cosy atmosphere.

Came here for my sisters birthday with family for Sunday lunch. Cold food and bland atmosphere. We were limited to only 2 hours which we were not told on the phone when we booked. Felt that we were very rushed as staff kept coming over and looking at their watches. They seemed to also clear every last glass and plate before some of us had finished. Spent over £100 and was very disappointed as we were all looking forward to a nice family meal. Poor service and food.

Another special night at the Upton Inn as it held its 11th annual Christmas Quiz! In fact the night was so special that perfect host Jamie even wore a suit! Over 100 people were in attendance and filled this lovely country pub to the rafters. The atmosphere is so relaxed that it actually feels like you’re in Jamie’s front room with a load of mates! The food is always amazing and the staff work so hard and are really friendly and welcoming. If you’re out for a walk over the festive period, walk towards the Upton Inn. You won’t regret it..Dave V

Lovely Sunday Lunch. Massive selection of veg for roast. Friendly staff good pub and wicked desserts!

Mi compañero y fuimos aquí en la semana era bastante tranquilo con algunas personas comiendoCompartimos un Camembert horneado como entrante, que era bueno, y ambos teníamos pollo de cazador para nuestro plato principal, lo que fue decepcionante cuando salió, parecía que había sido arrojado al plato desde el otro lado de la cocina, sabía bien, no había mucho de con un trocito de tocino y muy poca salsa, las papas fritas eran de una verdad congelada. . .En general, fue tan bueno como en un pub de cadena conocido pero cuesta másDudo que vuelva

Great carvery and very friendly staff, would absolutely recommend for a sunday roast! Sticky toffee pudding with custard was amazing!

El entrante de champiñones estaba hecho de una salsa que parecía ser de un paquete, no cocida adecuadamente y champiñones enlatados.Mi plato principal de risotto de champiñones, eran champiñones frescos en la misma salsa que el entrante, dejé al menos la mitad.No estaba preparado para tomar un budín.Estábamos con amigos y no quería avergonzarlos quejándome. Tenga la seguridad de que NUNCA iré allí de nuevo, lo cual es una pena ya que está bastante cerca de donde vivimos.

Mi esposo decidió en el último minuto de hoy que le gustaría ir a una comida familiar para su cumpleaños. Llamamos a la encantadora Kayleigh en el Upton Inn que amablemente nos acomodó a 14 de nosotros con poca anticipación. La comida era excelente y el servicio era tan cálido y amable que podríamos haber estado sentados cenando en casa. Hermoso fuego acogedor y muy amigable para los niños, tuvimos 4 niños de edades comprendidas entre 7 y 2 y estaban muy felices jugando con los juguetes proporcionados. Muchas gracias por hacer que el cumpleaños de mi esposo fuera tan especial y complacernos a todos en tan poco tiempo.

Los Brazaletes pensaban que eran maníacos y las Ratas de Boomtown realmente los odiaban. ¡Obviamente, Sir Bob Geldof no ha visitado el Upton Inn porque me encanta el lunes porque significa que es hora de cuestionar en el Upton Inn!

Quiz night at the inn. (Monday) Hilarious as usual. Great hosts and great fun. The steak & ale was absolutely delicious. It certainly was fit for a Lord. 🎩.

Paul L We've been a team here on quiz night for several months now and each week we have a real good laugh! The staff are really friendly and the quiz is very well delivered with great interaction with teams and the quiz master. We've also had food on a couple of occasions with the pie and faggots totally recommended!

This was our first time to the Upton Inn for years, we were a table of four adults. The food was delicious and generous. The staff were really friendly and fun and the atmosphere was chilled, a nice place to spend an evening and dogs are allowed which we love! We will return probably with our dog and kids.

We called in for an evening meal as it was our last night in the area. Bar staff was friendly, however we soon became put off staying due to the very loud noisy kitchen staff! It sounded like they were having a good old mess around rather than doing any work, and we weren’t even sat near the kitchen ! The food was average, but the whole place seems tired and needs a deep clean.

We went for a midweek meal and they had run out of the fish cakes but the waitress ask the chef and he made me some up fresh in no time at all. Lovely staff and food.

We were really looking forward to having a roast at the Upton inn hearing good things about it, unfortunately we as a family were very disappointed. Our table we were given was about a meter from the bar which was noisy and we had people bumping into us as they queued for drinks. I asked to be moved but no luck as all the tables were booked out, the girl did say that the lady on the phone told us we were near the bar at the time of booking the previous day which was not true! they said they would let us know if a table became free if a no show ... but they didn't ...well not till the end of our meal when the girl came to take our plates and said " you could of had that table over there as the customers didn't turn up" ???? why she didn't tell us sooner im not sure? To go with this the plates were cold which made our food cold oh and dogs barking through out the meal, also no conversation could of been had at our table due to the noise at the bar and the messing around of the two bar staff. All in all we couldn't wait to eat our meal and get out, we didn't finish our drinks and didn't have desert. WILL NOT BE RETURNING AND WILL NOT RECOMMEND. Shame as it looks nice from out side.

just visited the upton inn for a great carvery family meal. it was really busy but everyone was seated quickly and served effiecently at the bar.. it was best we booked and had a lovely table by the window and fire place, will return in the heart of winter to enjoy the fire place and ambience of this lovely little gem in the hills..
