What kind of pub it is

Come here if you want a properly kept pint — it's on CAMRA's recommended list, which in Bath means the cellar work is taken seriously, a seat outside when the weather allows, bringing the dog or eating as well as drinking.

  • The kitchen serves food, but hours are usually shorter than the bar's — if you're eating late, ring ahead.
  • Dogs are welcome in the bar.
  • There's outdoor seating, which fills the moment the sun appears.
  • Real ale is the reason most people come, and the range changes, so ask what's on rather than ordering blind.

Last orders shift across the week: Friday runs to 00:00, while Sunday winds up earlier at 22:30.
