We came to Bath on a tour and enjoyed our time walking through the town. There was a long line out…read morethe door when we first walked by and were told about this place's history. Later on in the afternoon, I saw no line outside so ventured up and there was a short line inside for those wanting to dine-in. Since I just wanted to go down to the shop, I was able to walk right down. There is a small display down there and little souvenirs. The best part though is that you can order the buns to-go here and they bring them to you outside where you will be waiting after shopping in the shop. I got one of each flavor and waited about 10 minutes for the buns to arrive. It came in a fancy box, but no bag as you had to have purchased that back in the shop. Of the Lemon, Cinnamon, and chocolate, my favorite was Lemon. The curd was so thick and rich and the bun perfectly toasted. Highly recommend!!

A cute restaurant! However, the buns though pretty solid are massively overpriced…read more I got the Welsh Rarebit Special. It was tasty but not a lot of food for £14. I also got the dessert bun for £6.2 with marmalade. I think the buns work a lot better for sweet than they do savory. The line to enter was pretty long, but it moved quickly. Overall, I would say this is a fun tourist spot! But not so much for a nice meal

So, when I knew I was planning a trip to London, I knew I had to schedule a tour to this location…read more The Roman Baths are located in the city of Bath. A beautiful city with so many breathtaking views. The site is located in the middle of the city surrounded by stores, restaurants, and other must see locations. I highly recommend booking this tour because you can learn so much and will learn about the Roman history of the baths. There is a self-guided tour that you can go as you wish. There is so much to see and so much information along the walls. Make sure to bring comfortable shoes since the ground can get a bit uneven throughout the tour and make sure you see the beautiful baths throughout the tour. Such an impressive experience and if you are in London, I recommend taking a day trip or two to visit. You will be mesmerized and taken back in time.

We had pre-bought tickets for a specific entry time, but there were tickets available at the door as well. I wouldn't chance it though. The line was short to get in at our time and the audio guide is included as part of the admission price. made the tour interesting and the facts provided were the perfect amount of detail. There was a kid's version too which was great! We were there a little over an hour and at the end you can taste some of the bath water, which was disgusting!!

First, the house itself has nothing to do with Jane Austen as she lived up the street as well as across the street. There's actually very little authentic items that belonged to Jane in the museum. Of course, that doesn't mean it isn't fun - we did enjoy the dressing up area and it was fun to see the period, etc. The film was also enjoyable as you will learn some history of her family, etc. and we also enjoyed the movie memorabilia from Jane Austen movies. That said, I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Friendly staff all around, whom all seemed very happy at their jobs and supporting this historical site. £16/$22 for entry, and worth it!

This is a walk-on tour of a museum home to give you a idea of a day in the life of a guest family…read more You follow the numbered footprints, room to room and see tables , chairs , beds , clothing , dishes as they would have been on a given day. There is a audio description of family engagement that comes on by cue. You are kind of alone in each room as the entrance person sends guests thru on a timing schedule. But some people are in a rush and catch up. A very eye opening look at dishware and items from 300 years ago. The ticket was a bit expensive for two, but the crown does not support this museum and your entrance is Valid for one year, should you return. They offer a senior rate. We did enjoy it, it's really not for kids. A LOT of things not to be touched or moved. All within reach. It's a real home from the 1700's.

This museum is in partnership with the No 1 Royal Crescent Museum. For a small fee you can get a…read morejoint ticket to both places. I never would have found this place if I hadn't gone to No 1. This is a very tiny, very basic museum. However, it was just the kind of thing that appealed to me. I'm one of those people who LOVES factory tours because I like to know how things are made. The Bath Architecture Museum has these amazing videos of craftsman showing how elements of Georgian Architecture are made. It also houses varieties of stone and illustrates painting and wallpapering techniques of the time. I love that kind of stuff! I left wanting to become a stone mason. This museum isn't for everyone and has unusual hours; however, for the right person, this is a really interesting museum and especially worth it if you get the 2 for 1 deal with No 1 Royal Crescent.

First of all, the title of this museum should not be "The Herschel Museum of Astronomy". Instead,…read moreit should just be "The Herschel Museum" because the content had little to nothing to do with astronomy and more to do with the life of William Herschel. NOTES: ~ First off, I should note that I am an avid lover of astronomy especially since I studied science myself in university. I am highly fascinated with astronomy as well as history. This is just to note that I am not looking through the lens of an uneducated person who "just doesn't get it" so don't write me off. ~ 6 pounds entry fee for adults. This museum, at first glance, was dodgy as hell. You ring the doorbell and a man dressed in plain clothes opens the door and lets you in. Then he tells you to pay and go to the dark and dingy basement to watch a video. WHAT. THE. FUCK? However, the video shown on a tiny tv set (placed upon a basic table with white dining tablecloth over it no less) had more content than anything else in the museum. Narrated by Sir Patrick Moore, it told the life of William Herschel and his sister who designed powerful telescopes unprecedented at the time. The video was very interesting unlike the rest of the museum or should I say dodgy house. Customer Service: The employees here made 0 effort in being engaging. You have the young university-age hipster looking woman running the cash register, and the dodgy man who opened the door for us talking to her. Don't bother them with any questions, they won't answer them, nor will they give you any interesting tidbits. In fact, it is quite safe to say that aside from opening doors and running cash registers these people have absolutely no idea what they're doing. Content: The most interesting thing about the museum is that it is set in William Herschel's actual home. The second most interesting thing is looking at the old clothes of his sister because they were incredibly petite. You know there's something wrong when someone's size becomes the #2 most interesting thing in a museum. Like I said, this museum has nearly nothing about astronomy and more content on William Herschel's life. They set up his music room and dining room as well as some old copies of his journals and his old traveling trunk, but aside from pocket astrolabes there was absolutely fuck all on astronomy. Aside from a telescope and astrolabe, there was in fact nothing at all. Not even much on his discovery of Uranus or information about the planet. It feels like his achievements and love for astronomy has put on the backburner, but the neat-o preserved house is at the forefront. History museum? Yes. Astronomy museum? Fuck no.

We were welcomed immediately upon entering and never felt any sense of pressure to hurry through the gallery. If anything, we could have (and maybe should have) stayed a bit longer to take it all in - there's plenty of seats in which to sit back and do so. But I appreciate all that we saw, including (but not limited to): 'The Bride of Death' painting by Thomas Jones Barker (I was taken with all the symbolism within what is essentially one story frame), Edwin Whitney-Smith's 'The Scarab' bronze statue, and - much to my surprise - the white cabinets against the walls of the room that are positively filled with pullout drawers housing watercolors and pencil sketches of Bath, Somerset, and England (one in particular caught my eye: it was the view looking down on Bath from Alexandra Park, and I had literally just come from the same physical vantage point [and couldn't help but compare my modern day phone photo to the piece of art from the 1800's). I am sure that if we were locals that we'd attend any number of the amazing community focused events they host throughout the year as well. Here's the thing: if art is not your thing... don't come. However: if you love art, even if you just kinda like art, if history and/or art are at all fascinating to you, if you only really like one artist and they carry one of their pieces, you should absolutely come here. It's not an all day affair (the gallery is actually quite small), so give yourself an hour or two and enjoy just another corner of how incredible the city of Bath really is.
