Slug & Lettuce - Bath

You'll find this sprawling cocktail spot tucked into the elegant Georgian terraces just off George Street, where the weekend crowds spill out onto the pavement with that particular energy that comes from decent drinks and music that doesn't make you shout. The interior strikes that tricky balance between polished chain slickness and actual character – think exposed brick, copper fixtures, and enough booth seating to make it feel intimate even when it's rammed. The cocktail list runs deep beyond your standard mojitos, with bartenders who know their way around a proper Negroni and seasonal specials that change often enough to keep locals coming back. Weekend brunch kicks off at 10am on Saturdays, making it one of the few places in Bath where you can seamlessly transition from bottomless prosecco to evening cocktails without changing venue.
