The Sickle

You'll find The Sickle tucked away on London Street, in that stretch where Bath's bar scene actually gets interesting. This isn't the sort of place that announces itself with neon or tries too hard—it just does good cocktails and lets the work speak for itself. Walk in and you'll notice the kind of detail that matters: knowledgeable bartenders who aren't performing, a tight drink menu that changes with purpose, and a room that feels lived-in rather than designed. It's become the sort of spot locals actually return to, which the near-perfect rating tells you something about consistency.
