A memorable and outstanding lunch. In spite of my allergies I was fully able to enjoy the varied and delicious menu choices with thoughtful adaptations. All of the seasonal and local options were scrumptious but the standout dish was the North Somerset Venison Haunch. This was cooked to perfection for each of our differing tastes, and accompanied by melt in the mouth fondant celeriac cooked in beef tallow, onion puree, deep dark greens of cavolo nero and curly kale with unctuous slow cooked garlic. We also had to try a perfect pairing of coal roasted beetroots with pickled blackberry vinaigrette which carried early autumn flavours with a welcome tang alongside the naturally sweeter onion puree. It was a sublime combination. The staff were so welcoming and outstandingly attentive, even though the restaurant was full of other grateful half term customers and their beautifully behaved offspring. The sprigs natural ferment non alcoholic fizz makes any weekday into a proper celebration.

Every time we are in Bath, we eat several meals at Bill’s on Cheap Street. Great food, great service and reasonable prices. Make reservations if possible since it does get busy. Breakfast options - fresh eggs and sourdough bread with avocado for me today. Well made coffee!

A lovely modern setting, great food from a small but interesting menu, and added novelty factor of small museum features and brush shop.

We had the Sunday roast, which first was served barely warm, so we had to return it, but then came to the right temperature! And was really tasty. We also had the Tomato soup to start which was really hot, also tasty, and deserts were good too. We had a really lovely waitress, smiling all the time, and nothing was too much trouble, I wish I had taken her name, as she deserves a mention .

We had a very lovely meal at Knoll House, lots of different choices of food, they were very accommodating towards my Mum, she has a small appetite and they plated her choices accordingly nothing was too much effort, fish and meat was superb, and the accompanying vegetables had been cooked with a light touch - not over cooked or soggy, perfect in everyway . Couldnt fault anything.

I ordered a rump steak with peppercorn sauce which was absolutely wonderful, well cooked, well presented and very tasty. My only criticism is that it stated £38 for 2 courses but there is a surcharge of £10 if you have steak, this was not made clear enough on the menu. But great service and a very indulgent chocolate dessert made the whole experience worh while.
