    Adorable location, terribly long wait for the food. Shareables were delicious, and 3/5 entrees were worth coming out to visit. The bathrooms were clean but the table was dirty and had a couple hairs that needed to be cleaned off. Overall, if in the area, I'd visit again given that I have enough time to wait for the food to come out.

    Service was great, unfortunately there wasn’t a huge choice for myself as someone who’s GF. Although there was a lot of care and attention to make sure I was able to find something and they made adjustments where possible. what I did have was really lovely. Was a nice experience.

    Slightly disappointed in our dining experience. The menu changes are very confusing - we had five different ones - too much! The main a la carte menu has a new Asian section in which we found our favourite (tempura prawns) after going through the various options. The food was good but not as outstanding as in previous visits. Overall a nice experience but not special. We'll try again.

    Disappointing. Air con caused such a draft, even when asked to turn it off/down. Eventually it was turned off. Found the service very slow. Food when it finally arrived was not hot. For an establishment as this, very disappointing. Have been here on numerous occasions, but this night was not a good experience

    Superb service throughout from being greeted at the door to leaving after the meal. Service is attentive without being intrusive, ambience of the restaurant is excellent and comfortable, able to happily chat and not feel you should be whispering. The serving team know their menu and offer good recommendations and advise if you want it, at no time are you made to feel rushed, everything moves at a comfortable pace. The food was, as you would expect, amazing. Flavours that work, well seasoned, beautifully presented without being overly fussed - this is quality dining. Pricing is excellent value - it’s not cheap, but it is excellent value. You get what you are paying for. Will be going back. Often!

    Great ambience with nice food. Waiter service very good and friendly. Food and drinks menu varied with something to please everyone. One of my wife’s favourite restaurants so we go every once in a while. I usually have the ribeye and it never disappoints. The house champagne wasn’t available this time but the Chandon was s as nice replacement. The sommelier spilt some when opening the bottle but gave us a free replacement glass as a top up so no harm done and a very nice touch. Bath Spa has a good range of quality restaurants to choose from including the Ivy. The Ivy however is consistently good for dinner so well worth a visit.

    No problem with the venue, service or food. Confusion when we were presented with a large bill at the end even though we had a voucher. The waitress didn’t check our voucher and served us afternoon tea instead of a cream tea. (We weren’t offered this option) The manager did reduce the bill but we still had to pay an extra £30. So although the actual service was good overall this was quite annoying. Didn’t want to argue about it too much as didn’t want it to spoil a lovely experience.

    We were given a champagne 3 course dinner voucher (£140) for our silver wedding anniversary. We mentioned this to the waitress when we sat down we then had the full menus snatched off us and a smaller menu presented. Very much felt like we were worthless as we had a voucher and not valued customers despite the cost of the voucher. The choices on the smaller menu was varied and appealing and the food was absolutely excellent. The nicest duck salad and monkfish curry I’ve had. Tasted very fresh with lovely flavours. Unfortunately the evening ended as it started and when we asked for the bill they tried to charge us for the puddings - which were specifically included. All in all abit crap I won’t go again despite the fantastic food.

    Ate here at my favourite restaurant on Friday 19th, booked for 2, and staff were very helpful when we wanted to include an extra guest at the last minute, as it meant changing our table. Had pre booked full afternoon tea for 1 and a la carte for 1. In then taking the order for 2 a la carte meals, my afternoon tea somehow got downgraded to 'tea & scones' by the waitress, which was a disappointment when it finally arrived with the others' main courses. Fortunately it was fairly easy to bring the rest of the sandwiches and cakes etc as no hot food was involved. We all enjoyed our meals, but the service was a bit chaotic, not as smooth or attentive as our previous visits.

    Booked for afternoon tea, £30 per person. Sandwiches had clearly been prepared well in advance and left out for bread to turn dry, and the insides soggy. Scones were rock hard with a minuscule amount of jam and cream to share between the two of us. Cakes were quite nice, but not enough to make up for a disappointing birthday treat. Would not recommend The Ivy afternoon tea in Bath, and will not return.
