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

Una visita obligada en Bath! Personal encantador que es muy acogedor, increíbles pasteles y una gran selección de bebidas! Es el lugar más lindo para esconderse un rato y un buen lugar para la gente que mira.

Bouvardia, un hermoso restaurante de alta cocina situado en las colinas a las afueras del centro de la ciudad de Bath. La impresionante presentación, limpieza y atención al detalle son evidentes a partir de su enfoque; la estética se ha pulido hasta el último detalle. Los jardines son de tamaño íntimo: con solo diez mesas ofrecidas, el servicio es rápido y atento, lo que significa que su comida es fresca y caliente! Hay un hermoso salón y bar junto al restaurante principal. Adjunto es Bathen House Hotel y aunque no nos alojamos, solo puedo imaginar que las suites son de similar alta calidad. El personal fue inmediatamente acogedor y atento durante toda nuestra comida, sabiendo cuándo acercarse y cuándo darle espacio - perfecto para una noche de cita íntima! La comida, desde entrantes hasta postres, era deliciosa. Cada plato estaba claramente diseñado con amor; la paleta y las texturas estaban perfectamente equilibradas. Cada nota base de umami se cortaba con una explosión brillante de una guarnición o aderezo. La riqueza equilibrada con notas delicadas y aromáticas. Ya sea que seas un poco esnob de la comida o simplemente disfrutes salir para una buena comida, apreciarás este menú. Pedimos el miso de berenjena y tomate, y buñuelos feta para comenzar; risotto de porcini, y lubina como principales; cardamomo y ruibarbo panna cotta, y chocolate torte de naranja con sorbete de naranja sangre para terminar. Por otro lado teníamos patatas delfines, y brócoli de tallo tierno con aderezo de anchoa. Mis favoritas fueron la berenjena miso y el cardamomo y ruibarbo panna cotta. La berenjena estaba perfectamente carbonizada, ahumada y con nueces, con el sésamo añadiendo algo de interés textural al bocado. La nuez caramelizada combinada con el rábano brillante era DIVINA. La crema de cardamomo tenía un perfil delicioso de biscuidad, con un final increíblemente jugoso y afrutado. El único, muy menor, negativo que podría ofrecer es que nuestros lados podrían haber hecho con un poco de algo extra. La delfinosa estaba ligeramente seca en las capas internas (aunque realmente aprecié que no se estaba ahogando en crema espesa) , y el brócoli podría haber hecho con un poco más de aderezo de anchoa. Incluso los vinos de la casa estaban a leguas por encima de las ofertas habituales! En general, tendría que darle a nuestra experiencia 5 estrellas, realmente no podríamos fallar. Gracias por recibirnos!

Lovely food with really nice and friendly staff. Lovely relaxed experience. Fun atmosphere in a quirkily designed and decorated room.

4 of us visited The Gaff last night for the Chef’s Table experience to celebrate my wife’s birthday. I must admit I was slightly trepidatious when we sat at the bar and were the only patrons in there. I needn’t have worried. As the restaurant filled up around us Chef Robert served up one of the best tasting menus we’d ever experienced. Every course was wonderfully unfussy, with a couple of dishes opting to make vegetables the star of the show, believe me - you’ve never had cauliflower like this. He was also a great host who clearly loves his craft and happily indulged my amateur interests in his cooking throughout the evening. All this was complimented by our American friend with a passion for Pauillac, the wine pairings were high quality, interesting but most importantly delicious. It is unbelievably good value for what you receive (£140 a head for 8 courses, 8 wines and service) and felt really special. My only thought as I exited into the cool April night, ‘I can’t wait to go back’.

Good food, extensive reasonably priced winelist, great sommelier. Hence the need to book! Do go!

I politely asked if I could sit outside for a glass of wine in the sunshine. The middle aged red haired waitress said I’d have to order food… I explained I’d just eaten… she said “we’re a restaurant, not a pub” and suggested I go somewhere else. Fair enough if that’s the policy but the delivery was seriously lacking and the attitude received has put me off ever coming back for food. A shame.

I was very lucky to stumble across this lil gem in the very heart of Bath. Super atmospheric and the choice of wine by glass is excellent! And thanks to lovely Anetta I ordered a baked camembert with honey and boy that was a perfect dish for a cold rainy lunch! Will be back and definitely recommend

This place is closed and will open soon with a new owner

Lovely food in a nice place, staff were ok apart from chasing me to check I'd paid, when I had of course 🙄

Amazing beautiful place food is outstanding service is amazing definitely a must try place if ever in Bath would highly recommend.

Fantastic restaurant- I know people who have been coming here for decades due to its consistent good quality food and exemplary service. Would recommend the biryanis and dhansak.

After a walk around the grounds, I was looking forward to lunch at the brasserie. Looking at the menu I wanted something substantial but not too filling as I didn’t want to spoil the meal I was having at Restaurant Hywel Jones. I opted for...

The food was reasonably priced. The guys was friendly. I had the hotdog and it was good. The brioche roll was toasted and the hotdog was juicy. Overall well recommended
