   The food was good but the service was slow to begin with. A couple of things not available on the menu. Staff helpful and good humoured after the initial wait, but as always the wine is unnecessarily over priced!

   Elegant, delicious, and wonderfully relaxed! We had a truly outstanding evening here. From the moment we arrived, everything was beautifully presented and thoughtfully delivered. The food was exceptional - perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and elegantly plated. Each course felt special without being over the top. The service was equally impressive: warm, attentive, and professional. The ambience was just right - stylish and welcoming, with a quiet, relaxed atmosphere that made the whole experience feel calm and unhurried. It’s a rare treat to enjoy such a great dining setting these days. In terms of value, while it’s certainly on the higher end, the quality of the food and service made it worthwhile. It’s the kind of place you go to make an evening feel like an occasion - and it absolutely delivered. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable and wonderful dining experience in Bath.

   ordered a bottle of champagne and had to ask every time to get the glass filled. the wrong food came out . sirloin steaks instead of fillet had to wait for new food to be cooked . champagne had run out by then . very disappointing for a first date

   We had been looking forward to to eating at the Ivy Bath as we had eaten at the one in Cardiff earlier this year. I had the scallops to start which were very nice, my partner had the salt and pepper squid which to be totally honest wasn’t the best, both of our main meals were a disappointment, I had the duck curry which wasn’t very hot and my partner had the lobster linguine which wasn’t very disappointing, there was hardly any lobster in it., and the bits there were: were claw meat, my partner left most of his as he described it as really bland, overall it cost us £172.00 with just over £19 being a service charge. The whole experience which is supposed to be something special, turned out to be very disappointing.

   I need to have gluten free and though there are no GF signs on the menu the waitress was extremely helpful and went out of her way to make sure my food was ok. The food and service were both excellent.

    Table was cramped and table cloth wrinkled so made it difficult to set down glasses. Two dishes were overcooked
