Places to eat in BAth

Well,

off to Bath for one night, need excellent recomendations for lunch, romantic dinner, breakfast, lunch, and afternoon tea. :) x
 
Any preference on type or price? We've got millions of crap places to eat, but there are some jems in there too.

The lebanese is good for lunch (all you can eat buffet). It's in a crappy shopping centre (the podium, in the centre of town), but once you're in, you're shielded from all the other rubbish going on in there.
 
depends on price i guess, loch fyne is very nice, had a lovely meal there a few months ago, is the firehouse rotisserie still going (next door the the salamander) I've always had nice meals there...
 
The firehouse is still going, but now you mention it the salamander is pretty good too.

As is the raven just down the road for pieminister pies, but I doubt that counts as romantic.
 
yeah, we usually go to loch fyne when eating out in bath too.

the one above the porter cellar bar that was once well famous (and where keith floyd started off) is now under new ownership and just poncy.

Upstairs at the salamander is actually really good if you're into your simple cooked, locally sourced and organic, otherwise, erm, dunno. Chinese down from gay street, by the jane austen museum is a bit lame.
 
Yes as well to both Loch Fyne and the Firehouse

If you're veggie, or even if you're not, Demuth's is fabulous.

Oooh, oooh, and can't forget the Rajpoot! Best indian food I've tasted.

And agree with fractionman about that lebanese place for lunch - its a little calm haven like a cave that shuts out everything.
 
My friend is head chef at the Clarkes Restaurant (i think... could be another on pultney bridge).. i say friend, he's more an acquaintance.

Scott J, if your reading this, do you know which restaurant i mean??


Think its pretty nice in there. Not your typical chef though!
 
Eastern Eye is good for Indian. Some decent pub food, Malborough tavern, at back of the Royal crescent, the Hop-pole (owned by same brewery as Salamander and found at the bottom of Victoria Park) and King William on London Road.

Sally Lunn's is traditional for cream tea, tourist trap that it is.
 
I quite like Pasta Galore (nicer than the name suggests!0 and that Italian place that begins with Z on Walcot Street.
 
Not hugely romantic but very lovely especially if the weather is nice so can sit in lovely garden is the White Hart in Widcombe-just over bridge at back of railway. Lovely slightly posh pub with lovely slightly posh food:o
 
Lebanese

Cool, thanks for that.

we where looking at Loch Fyne, but I thought it was just another place in a long chain.
Lebanese for lunch sounds great.

thanks, will let you know how it goes.

Tis a funny place, kind of nice and down at heel all at once-we had a romantic dinner in the 'garden' listening to Blak Sabbath from the council flats above us:D

Fishworks on green street is an awesome alternative to loch fyne, but rather expensive.

I think you mean Pastiche? Or maybe even No 5 Bistro depending on which head chef you're talking about :)

It's a bit out of the way but the Desh on Chelsea Road does a really nice biryani.
 
I'll second the desh. Nice little indian that.

But I've just remembered the best place to eat!

Go to the nepalese (YakYetiYak) just off pultney bridge - it's fantastic!

yeah the desh is good.

ive always been intrigued by YakYetiYak (follow the Yeti footprints etc) but never been in there.. is it expensive? looks it!
 
nah, it's pretty reasonable really. priced like a decent indian. I haven't been there for aages though and the menu's changed a bit, but it's the same people running it. Kid friendly too!
 
While I remember, the marmaris is good value. It's the very sweaty-looking kebab shop looking over the weir. The restaurant is through the back, the kebabs are good, the service friendly but the house wine god-awful.

It looks pretty poor from the front but it's actually not bad. just don't be sitting anywhere near the kebab counter part come kicking out time.
