    Spectacular location with a spectacular view. Food was delicious, although my Caesar salad with chicken on top was maybe a little skimpy. The Sunday roast was an absolutely perfect portion. The Yorkshire pudding, side dish looked so good, I regret, not having it as a side for my salad—next time, for sure. Servers were very attentive and worked as a team, meaning we never felt we had to grab somebody’s attention. The atmosphere in this place is really lovely, and we can’t wait to return. We are already looking forward to taking visitors here.

    Lovely place overlooking the countryside. Lots of tables outside. Food was good but looking at the menu since our visit realised that I didn't receive the full items as described. I had the pork belly which was delicious but no carrot! Only a small gripe but maybe quality control should be better.

    The fatter chips weren't cooked properly. Tartare sauce plonked on the plate rather than in separate pot - not great if you don't like it on your (hard) chips and peas. Ordered garden peas instead of mushy peas because I don't like stuff mixed in with my peas only to be served peas still with something (beans?) mixed in. Fish was ok. Smallest serving of 'three scoops of ice cream' I've ever seen - they could justifiably re-label this as 'diet ice-cream'.

    Having only booked this venue by reviews and comments online, we were absolutely delighted when we arrived. They had listened to our comments about a table with space to accommodate our large dog and we could not have been situated in a better position. The venue and its location is stunning and the service and staff are second to none. The staff were so friendly and helpful it was a refreshing change from the usual places where the staff are so "false" and told what to say. We were spoilt for choice with the menu and the food was delicious, my husband said they were the best Nachos he has ever had. We will definitely be returning when we visit Bath again. A pat on the back to all the staff at the Hare and Hounds, we loved it, thank you!

    They ran out of the drinks we wanted and deserts were delivered with items missing. One of our main courses - pork belly - was small and badly cooked. Will not visit again and would not recommend. Clearly they can’t cope with the amount of people

    If you like your meat to be plated with bare hands than this is the place for you, if however you prefer the kitchen to use utensils to dish up your food then I suggest eating elsewhere. As patrons, we place our trust in the establishments we choose to dine at, expecting that proper food safety practices are followed without question. Sadly, Hare and Hound has failed miserably in meeting these expectations.

    I do really like this place, but the Sunday lunch was average at best. The meat (lamb and beef) was served in thin slices, which didn’t fit with the description of “slow roast” for me. The parsnip was raw and inedible, and there wasn’t enough gravy. For a £22 price tag I expected much more. We’ll return for the weekday evenings, but find another venue for Sunday lunch.

Please accept my apologies that your Sunday roast wasn't up to the standard it should have been, your review made for disappointing reading. I'm very pleased however to see it hasn't put you off returning, and we look forward to your future visits so that we have the opportunity to make amends. Thank you again, Joe (A.M.)

    The most amazing location with views out over the Bath countryside. Huge outdoor deck area is stunning in the Summer. Only downside was the amount of meat that was served with the Sunday roast, two tiny slices that were as thin as paper. The rest of the food was incredible.

    The Hare & HoundsResponded 6 days agoHi there, Thanks for the lovely review, I'm glad you enjoyed your food and service with us. Apologies for the confusion with window requests - our booking system automatically assigns tables, and we can't specifically guarantee window tables for a variety of reasons.

    After reviewing the best Sunday Lunch venues on Trip Advisor. We were very disappointed with the food and service. Such a beautiful location and we were so looking forward to our dinner. The food arrived quickly but all of it was cold. Red cabbage missing from one plate in our party. I asked for some hot gravy to try and make the dinner warmer which was provided. I asked for mint sauce to accompany my lamb as it wasn’t offered and a small bowl was given but no spoon, do we used our forks as I didn’t want to cause a fuss. There were other issues and commotion happening with the party on the next table to us with their food which wasn’t pleasant to listen to. Our desserts came out at three different times and we had to ask and remind staff that we were still waiting for one which did eventually arrive with an apology. There was another incident with someone collapsing which I know couldn’t be helped but the whole experience left us very disappointed and despite the place being so lovely, we are unlikely to book again sadly.

    The Hare & HoundsResponded on May 24, 2023Hi Sonia, Thank you for your feedback following your recent visit with us. Please accept your apologies that you left feeling so disappointed, this is certainly not the level of service that we always aim to provide.

    The pub is in a fantastic location in Lansdown. The views from the garden are lovely. There is an outside bar for people sitting outside and the area is clean and tidy. There is a play area in the garden for older children. The interior is a classy, classic British pub. Very nice. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Service is prompt. Just one thing… The food quality should be better for the price. It was mostly good and quite tasty, however I was served a sirloin steak that looked like it had been mummified. It should never have left the kitchen. The manager changed it for another one but by the time I got it everyone in my party had finished their food. The second steak was better but not brilliant. The manager graciously accepted my complaint and didn’t charge for the steak. These things happen. Overall this is a really nice pub and we will definitely be back. Thanks for the great service!

    Very nice welcome on arrival. Had to go to the bar to order drinks as nobody asked what we would like. Both ordered the beef burger which was fine apart from the poor quality roll. It’s advertised as a toasted brioche bun which it certainly wasn’t! It was a basic small white roll which was very disappointing as the quality of the burger was good. Please go back to the quality brioche bun that you advertise on your menu. Had to go to the bar to chase the bill at the end of the meal.

    Had the pan fried cod which was tasty but overpriced. The fish was about 2” big and the sauce was pretty much just melted butter and was £23.90. Our table also had the sausage & mash which was over powered by the mountain of garlic cabbage piled over the top of it. Atmosphere is always nice, the staff are friendly and the garden is amazing, just a shame the prices here seem to constantly be going up.

    Lovely location. Quality of food was very underwhelming for the price. My burger and chips (16.50) was exactly the same size as my sons kids burger and chips (6.95), and it was only burger and chips, some kind of salad or coleslaw side would have been welcomed. Service was fine, quite a long wait between courses, but they were busy so fare enough....

    Beautiful scenery and building from the outside . However inside there is a lot of staff but they didn’t seem overly organised . We were asked about our drinks order and we explained we didn’t get a menu and she said ‘ well roughly what would you want ‘ very abruptly and didn’t offer us a menu. Ordered a Diet Pepsi but got full fat ! Partners chicken was dry so sent it back , luckily it was much better and he enjoyed his food altho he didn’t get the gluten free bun he requested the first time round . Also Not sure why they put lemon on the cabbage slaw either it gives it a very odd flavour. Lovely table in conservatory looking over the gardens so would rate this pub to visit if you’re coming for drinks in the summer .

    Another lovely meal here , our son lives up the road and we love it here as we can bring his dog. Always friendly and lovely food. It was extremely busy when we arrived, all tables taken but we still had great service with a smile!

    Unfortunately two plates of the Roast Pork and one plate of the Chicken Supreme within our order was cold, and two plates of the Sticky Toffee Pudding was cold too. The staff rectified these issues for us and gave us a 20% discount but it took the shine off an otherwise lovely afternoon.

    The Hare & HoundsResponded on May 13, 2023Hi Kieran, Thank you for your feedback following your recent visit. Please accept our apologies again for the issues which I'm sad to read affected your afternoon so. I'm glad to see that we rectified it well for you and that you overall had an enjoyable stay with us. Thanks again, Joe (A.M.)

    The food sounded amazing when reading the menu. However, it took a very long time to arrive. When it did appear, it didn't really live up to it's description. The tantalising sound of cider braised pork belly with homemade crackling was actually rather dry and the cracking more like pork crackling crisps from a bag. The lamb was okay but not that tasty and the portions too small for my teenager! The location is superb and the views fantastic. Shame the food didn't live up to the surroundings.

    The Hare & HoundsResponded on May 19, 2023Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to leave us your thoughts following your visit with us. Please accept my apologies that your dishes weren't up to the standard it should have been, please don't hesitate to alert your server as we'd have loved the opportunity to fix things for you. However, I'm very glad you made the most of our beautiful setting which hopefully made up somewhat for the above. Thank you again, Joe (A.M.)
