Harden's survey result
Summary
“Been going so long it’s become an institution in Bath – and all the better for that” – this bistro set in a Georgian house was taken over three years ago from the founding Golden family by head chef Matthew Lisanti. Ratings would be higher were it not for reports of cooking that was “competent but not mind-blowing” – possibly “a problem of too-high expectations”.
Summary
“Pleased to say standards remain high in this popular and much commented-on bistro serving modern European food”, in a useful central location. it’s “one of the best choices in a city served mainly by the chains”.
Summary
“Outstanding fish” is one of the better bets at this popular independent close to the town centre, and “service is outstanding too”. The “excellent pre-theatre menu is delightful and a bargain”.
Summary
“An ever-dependable restaurant” amidst the sea of tourist traps blighting this genteel town, this “good-value” indie offers “first-class” modern European grub “with knowledgeable and attentive service to go with it”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
