Cortado Café

You'll find yourself in the narrow stretch of Bridge Street where locals actually congregate, not the tourist-heavy high street crush. Cortado's the kind of place where your barista knows their extraction times and genuinely cares whether you're getting fruity or chocolatey notes in your cup. The café punches above its weight with thoughtfully sourced beans and pastries that justify the queue, especially when you're craving something beyond the usual chains. It's become a proper fixture for the Bath coffee crowd—small, buzzy, and entirely unpretentious.
