New team members

pizza-chef-jobs-in-bath

We’ve seen some new faces join our various teams as well as some moving on through the year.

From our Brasserie kitchen and Bath Pizza Co kitchen to our front of house floor and bar teams we’re fortunate to have brilliant people running the show.

Our people are at the heart of our business and we’re fortunate to have built a wonderful team.

Brunch Time!

Boasting a classic brunch food offering, we’re pleased to offer guests Bottomless drinks from the bar with a special selection of cocktails, Prosecco and beers.

Keeping local at heart

We’re amazed at the number of restaurants where culinary skill has been replaced with mass produced warehouse kitchen production.

We’re still incredibly proud to support local farmers and producers and boast some of the best food available locally in Bath and the South West - especially our Steak from Hugh and Celia at Newton Farm, Bath, 3 miles from our kitchen.

Not only is the local produce we’re able to source of outstanding quality, it is part of our purpose to do as much as we can to support the local economy and businesses to create a thriving city.

Bath pizza co’s new take Away App

Our on site sister restaurant, Bath Pizza Co launched their new loyalty take out pizza App this year.

We’ve seen a huge uptake in take out sales (something we’ve learned through the pandemic) and are pleased to offer free pizza perks and discounts through the App. Check it out here.

Welcome back The Bath Festival!

We were thrilled to welcome back The Bath Festival earlier in May after a 2 year pandemic gap.

Community is central to our purpose and events such as these are brilliant in brining everyone together.

Serious about Sundays

Our Sunday Roast made a booming return earlier this year.

Running from 12-4pm alongside our classic mains (Burgers, Fish, Steak) we’re serious about Sundays and are open for Sunday Roast Lunch bookings year round.


Once again, a huge thank you to everyone involved with the business. We look forward to seeing you over the festive season and into 2023!

On tour: Woodchester Valley Vineyard

With pandemic restrictions lifting we’re visiting more of our fantastic West country producers and suppliers this summer.

Last week we visited one of our wine suppliers - Woodchester Valley Vineyard

woodchester-vineyward-south-glos.jpg

Found in the Cotswolds, tucked away above the narrow lanes north of Nailsworth sits Woodchester Valley Vineyard.

best-wine-bar-in-bath.jpg

The winery is state of the art with the aim of all of the technology being to produce wines with pure, crystalline fruit.

best-wine-bar-restaurant-steak-house-in-bath-001.jpg

Our host Aaron, kicked us off with Woodchester’s Cotswold Classic Sparkling wine.

This is a dry and flavoursome wine, well positioned for the gap between Prosecco and Champagne.

A perfect drink for a warm evening, refreshing, clean and interesting.

Full house. The Woodchester Valley range

Full house. The Woodchester Valley range

Aaron then produced their 2019 Bacchus which our guests can find on our Wine List.

It is a relatively unknown grape type, which makes a delicious, pure, wine, on similar lines to a NZ sauvignon, crisp, with lots of fruit and balancing acidity. An ideal aperitif.

Then before setting off to see some of the vineyards and winery, we were treated to a glass of the Ortega Bacchus, which has had the benefit oak ageing to make a softer, richer and more complex wine.

The vineyards are some of the highest in the UK at an altitude of over 150 metres, sitting on the stony tops of the Cotswolds fossil filled limestone.

It was amazing to contemplate that where we stood on the top of a sunny hill had once been the floor of the sea. Fossil hunters can find ammonite and shell fossils amoungst the edges of the Vineyard.

As the sun went down, we finished our visit with a glass of the delicious Cotswold Sparkling Rose, dry but rich with the scent of muscatel and rose. Summer in a glass.

A huge thanks to Aaron and the Woodchester team for hosting us! Be sure to check out their wines, tours and tastings online.

The team have also created a small handful of beautiful rooms with stunning views across the valley.
