The best restaurants serving British food in Abbey Bath and North East Somerset South West

El té de la tarde era infalible. Excelente selección de tés y excelentes sándwiches, bollos y pasteles, además de sabrosos sabores asiáticos cálidos. Gran servicio,

Straight forward simple food at very reasonable prices and plenty of space to sit and enjoy. Very nice to be able to find a cafe in such a central position in Bath without the usual high st chain paraphernalia.

Delicious steak, great service, lovely atmosphere.

Difficult to fault. Favourite restaurant in Bath.

A marvellous menu with lots of good options. The fish fish was incredible. Staff were very efficient and friendly. The place looks small from the outside but is nice and large inside - and has a nice separate area for small groups.

Anoche comimos en The Elder para celebrar mi cumpleaños y lo pasamos muy bien. Primero, el servicio fue genial y el entusiasmo de nuestro camarero fue contagioso. En segundo lugar, cualquiera que piense que es caro necesita que le examinen la cabeza: 80 libras esterlinas por un menú de esta calidad hoy en día es muy razonable. En el lado negativo, creo que la ambición del restaurante no está del todo igualada por su capacidad, pero, para ser justos, esto se refleja en el precio. Para mi gusto, los platos estaban en general un poco mal condimentados, aunque esto puede ser el resultado de la precaución en la cocina en lugar de una falta de refinamiento. El plato principal fue el ánade, que estaba perfectamente cocinado y delicioso. Además, la calabaza confitada que acompañaba al pudín era divina. El venado, sin embargo, no funcionó del todo y, para mí, necesitaba algo más agudo que lo acompañara para equilibrarlo mejor. El pastel en el lado era una buena idea, pero en última instancia no añadió nada. La sopa de maíz también era un poco sosa. Pero en general este es un restaurante para ver y sospecho que solo puede mejorar!

It was my friends birthday and decided we should have tea here. The room was amazing and the live music was superb. The sweet part of the tea was great as was the savoury Welsh rarebit. The sandwiches were OK but not up to the same standard as everything else. The absolute highlight for me was the staff: we were greeted at the door by the amazing James, he is a gracious, kind, accommodating and beautiful human being!! We were also assisted by Eugine and Davide who were super helpful as well as funny and with very good people skills! (Now let’s go back to James)- I told James that I didn’t eat meat so he sorted out a different sandwich for me and also made a recommendation for the tea…he did not let me down, it was the best cup of tea I’ve ever had in my life! I told him it was my friends birthday and they sent over a cute little cup cake as the band played “happy birthday”. A stupendous day was had by all…thank you so much for having us and helping us create memories!

Love, love, loved my stay here. Everything was perfect!

Amazing restaurant, awful service. I hate to write a bad review as someone who works in hospitality but this was a particularly bad experience ! Today we headed to the beckfrord bottle shop for some dinner and a glass of wine. We were told that we had the table until 8pm which we expressed was completely fine ! However, the waitress (dark hair, glasses and checked grey overshirt) made us feel totally uncomfortable from the moment we arrived. We were rushed to order drink and then food, she was panicked almost from the moment we sat down. We asked for a minute so we could all discuss what we wanted to order and she was clearly very unimpressed at this. Everything seemed fine again and different members of staff brought us our food and were friendly and accommodating. Then it came to 7.40pm and the rushing and rudeness came back and worse. She asked us to pay the bill and we explained we’d already understood that we had to be done by 8 so could we enjoy our glasses of wine and pay at the end of the meal. She came back 2 minutes later and forced us to pay the bill with 20 minutes to go. This shouldn’t even have been on our mind, as we were trying to enjoy a nice meal. Why did there have to be such a stress on the time limit when being out for dinner ! As I mentioned above, I work in hospitality and I’m very used to annoying customers etc. However, we are a pretty laid back group of people. This was such a shame as the food and wine was amazing, really she ruined what could have been such a lovely evening! I think maybe the waitress needed a break ?

The food and drink was really tasty! The vibe of the restaurant was really good and the waitress, Bea, was very accommodating, and provided excellent service!

I travel quite a lot with work and like to look for independent accommodation outside of Premier Inn and Travelodge.. I stayed here last night and I found it to be a SUPERB place to eat and stay at ! Bed and Breakfast was £74 and I had a lovely 3 course meal for £32. Genuinely, I have not found a better restaurant and accommodation throughout the UK for a business trip. The rooms are clean, classy, comfortable and such good value. This, alone, would guarantee a great review but then I went downstairs to the pub for dinner. It was truly delicious and full of flavour. I learnt that all of the menu is freshly and home made by the friendly and very talented chef and each course was piping hot. As a starter, I had the mushroom with goats cheese and onion jam. Main course was pork shoulder, mash with veg and incredible gravy ! Dessert was apple & cider crumble with custard. This was a 10/10 dinner and couldn't be faulted. All of the staff were incredibly welcoming. I visited on a Tuesday night and it was fully booked. It is obviously very popular and appears to be a hidden gem. Thank you to all of the team and I hope to revisit here in the future - this is a great place to stay at for a visit to Bath !

We really enjoyed our visit! Lovely pancakes and coffee, with friendly, helpful staff. It was such a treat to sit in their pretty courtyard despite it being mid November! Would go again.

A really good find !! A local pub with great atmosphere and a really friendly and helpful attitude from the staff and locals alike ! The food was great ..... A good selection of ales and I was assured the wine was good too. I would recommend a visit 👍

Petit café situé sur la place de la cathédrale, qui est très agréable pour prendre une petite collation. Nous avons pris un goûté anglais avec un thé et un scone qui été délicieux. Je vous recommande fortement cet endroit !

Sat outside this Mokoko in Dorchester Street. Tables were dirty, cigarette ends all over the floor, tables not cleared - horrible - coffee on the other hand - lovely
