    Lamb Shepherds Pie was delicious, so much flavour, portion not overfacing. We also had Chocolate Bomb again delicious and probably one of the nicest deserts I’ve had in a long time. A must for all who love chocolate and caramel.

    Took my friend for afternoon tea as an early special birthday treat. From the girls on reception helpfully amending the timing of my booking to all the serving staff, everyone was very professional and efficient. The food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. They even brought a small cake with a candle for the birthday girl.

    Simply the most beautiful restaurant in Bath, The food is really quite plain, nothing too clever. It's tasty but simple - cottage pie, fishcake, steak and chips - all nicely done and well presented, but it's the place that is the real attraction. I think the building housed a bank back in the day (Milsom Street was mainly lined with banks back in the day) and is gorgeous: high ceilinged, arched windows, a lovely space which is superbly decorated and fitted out with the panache you might expect of such a well-known name. Highly recommended for a special occasion, you can't fail to enjoy yourself.

    We have been to 4 different “Ivy’s” and they have all been very good, not cheap, but consistently good. The decor is always linked to their locale. Polite and happy staff. We will continue to go to them.

    Quite good on the whole, great food but my side order of fries was very late and no apology considering you have to pay extra! I don’t agree with service charge being already to the bill when just 3 diners.

    Decaffeinated tea was not available! They only provided a low caffeine tea so I had to use my own. Could do with some more fresh fruit to balance out all the sweetness. Apart from that we had an exceptional afternoon tea, it was wonderful!

    Being a Sunday you would expect a Roast, but there was none. On ordering a steak I found that there was only chunky chips, which I do not like, on asking if there were French fries I was advised no, also on asking for new potatoes I was advised mash only. This was our first visit to The Ivy, I found the whole experience not up to the standard I would expect, particularly considering the prices charged. Our meals were fine but we have had the same quality elsewhere for a lot cheaper price. Overall an acceptable experience but not exceptional. The waitress was friendly and helpful.

    The place was really nice, the ambience was perfect. The service was a bit slow and we had to ask the waitress a few time for things, like removing the empty plates and glases to make space. They were all very busy and for that reason they left us a bit alone. All the rest was great! My guests notices the food porcions were too small, but very tasty. I personally would love to come back.

    Lovely lunch here with friends catching up after 10+ years of not seeing each other since school. Food was lovely, the lunch deal was good value. Only downside was we were prompted to give our table up after two hours even though there were loads of empty tables :(

    Gets by on it's name. Nothing to write home about. Menu sounded great and the scallops were really good, everything else was just "ok". Expected more from the flavours. Staff were really lovely, but delivered first cocktail wrong and second one not at all! Noticed after a good 25 minutes and then brought it. For the money and reputation I expected much more and we came for a celebration treat. Overall disappointed. If it was a regular wetherspoons it would've scored as a good one, but Def doesn't live up to rep.

    This was our second visit to The Ivy in Bath in just over a month. Lovely service, overall, and great atmosphere. However, the set menu wasn't quite as good as the time before, mainly the cheese dessert (not a nice cheese like the first time we went). Still good value and a great place to eat but the first time had the edge. I hope it will be back to very high standards of good next time!

    Our breakfast at The Ivy was amazing. My friend had poached eggs with avocado, I had scrambled eggs with smoked salmon - followed by breakfast pastries and preserves to share. Coffee and cream was an absolute delight. It was our first experience of breakfast at The Ivy and will be making a return visit very soon.

    Last night in Bath so fancied eating somewhere different from the hotel restaurant where we were staying so plumped for the Ivy in Bath. The whole experience was marvellous! Ambience, Service, Food, Surroundings…..everything! Made our last meal/evening in Bath truly memorable. Jon & Dominique from Bishop’s Stortford.
