Hall & Woodhouse Bath

You'll find this handsome Hall & Woodhouse outpost tucked into a gorgeous Georgian building just steps from Bath Abbey, where Old King Street meets the city's ancient heart. The interior strikes that perfect balance between historic charm and contemporary comfort – think exposed stone walls, polished wood, and enough space to breathe without feeling cavernous. The kitchen turns out proper gastropub classics with a bit more finesse than your average boozer. Their fish and chips actually deserves the hype, and the Sunday roasts are substantial enough to fuel a post-lunch walk up to Royal Crescent. What sets this place apart is the Badger brewery connection – their ales are reliably excellent, and there's something satisfying about drinking beer from a company that's been brewing since 1777. The staff know their stuff too, happy to guide you through the beer list or suggest food pairings.
