They have several local ales on tap and some "Real Ale" cask conditioned for a traditional experience. Sadly, there was no roast beef when we arrived so we'll have to wait for the classic Sunday roast. Steak and ale pie, and a butternut squash pie were good substitutes. This is a popular spot, especially for outdoor seating. We sat inside in a cozy dining room but if the weather is dry outdoors is a nice option.

Just on the outskirts of…read morecentral Bath, this delightful classic British pub has lovely interior with whimsical decor yet classy at the same time. Service was a confusing at first, but was just swell once we were seated...the leftside is a side is a traditional sit down restaurant service, the right side is a classic pub style where you order everything at the bar, and the expansive outside patio is self service as well, a completely taken over by smokers and vapers like every other European patio. £20 FISH & CHIPS! The fresh beer battered haddock was thick and crispy on the outside, and moist and tender on the inside, perfection!, The chips were pleasant enough, though crushed minted peas were just okay...maybe because they day prior I had some incredible mushy mint peas at another pub. Still a great plate overall! £20 SHORTCRUST PIES...wife went with the Chicken, Leek, and Herb...wonderfully rich and savory, with flavorful scent and warm, buttery pie crust. Lovely! Also came with seared greens, braised red cabbage, buttery mash potatoes, and rich decadent red wine gravy. £7.5 STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING...gooey, sweet, sticky, buttery, and fantastically wonderful!

The 3 story pub has lovely, warm, very British ambience. The Raven's food has a strong focus on hot pies, with a nice selection including Steak N Ale, Venison, Chicken, Beef N Cheese, Jackfruit, and Mushroom. My venison pie was delicious! The gamey meat was tender and succulent. I accidently ate into my wife's jackfruit pie...it was so good that I mistakenly thought it was my venison pie! £20 for any hot pie 'LOADED' which came with chips or Mash, plus heaps of roast vegetables and seasonal greens. It'll fill you up, and deliciously! Side Story: they accidently gave my wife a Chicken Pie instead of the Jackfruit Pie. The staff was so overwhelming apologetic about the error, and they refunded our ENTIRE bill! We said a small discount or just her pie being comped would've been more than fine, but they insisted on refunding the entire amount.

For my entrée, I had the Roasted Cotswold Chicken Breast, and it was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful. If you're in Bath, don't skip Clayton's Kitchen.

Very creative drink menu, making choosing difficult. I caved and took the Negroni and my wife chose the Madame Suzette. Both excellent. They have a kids menu and a very good Set Menu plus a la carte for adults. I started with the Leek and Feta soup and finished with the Braised Pork Belly. Both excellent. The Leek Soup had potatoes, feta cheese cubes, and black sesame seeds. My wife chose the Plaice and my daughter chose the kids beef slider. Both loved their dishes. We all had dessert. I ordered the Salted Caramel Tart having never tried it. Cannot say it was for me but was made well and had a good flavor. I also ordered a Somerset Apple Brandy. Fantastic. Need to find a shop where I can get a bottle. Overall best dinner so far in Bath. We would definitely come back.

The pub is unassuming on the outside but nice inside. There are two sections those for indoor dining and those wanting to sit outdoors or hang by the bar, we chose the latter. Outside is wonderful with a nice patio, plants, and plenty of shade. With the warm weather, this was a popular spot for folks. Service was friendly but limited. You order and pay for your food and drinks at the bar, they bring it out to you and that's it. I had a Lemon Chicken Pesto Sandwich. It was fine but nothing spectacular. I wish there was more filling to the sandwich, it was very bready. The fries (chips) were crispy and soft. My group enjoyed their meals as well and they looked good. Bath has lots of eateries and shops. If you're going to the Roman Baths or are in the main area, Crystal Palace is a nice spot to stop in for a bite or drink. They're located off Abbey Green near the courtyard.

We both ordered the Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries. The club consisted of grilled chicken, avocado, carrot, beetroot, mixed leaves & salsa verde mayo all on a ciabatta. I found this sandwich to be a tad messy to eat as I kept losing stuff out the backside of my ciabatta but that also could have been because I was in such a hurry. Either way, the sandwich was absolutely fabulous and I would definitely recommend it. While in England, I only had the opportunity to eat twice at Giraffe but both dishes I had in both restaurants we went to were fantastic. I like this chain and the service we received at this location was second to none. They got us in and out in record time and I wasn't late for my evening event. Thank you!
