BOTTOM LINE: Although the food was great, the service left a bit of a bad aftertaste…read more Located next to the infamous Sally Lunn's, Oak (previously known as Acorn - get it?! - and still listed as such on Yelp) is located in the core area of Bath. It's a small space, and I can't imagine there being space for more than 25-30 diners (or even less), and each table as relatively small in size (more on this later). First, the good part. The food remains the main attraction, and ingredients across the board tasted consistently fresh. Whether it was the HAZELNUT RISOTTO, the ROASTED COURGETTES/ZUCCHINI, the BEETS, or the TOMATO SOUP, I found they were prepared to a high standard. The dishes are meant to be sharing plates, but this can cause some table real estate problems (also, more on this later). But now, the not-so-good part, the comparatively poorer service, especially when compared to similarly-priced restaurants (e.g., Sotto Sotto), or even less (e.g., Sally Lunn, Yak Yeti Yak, etc.), and then the gall to charge a higher service percentage of 12.5%. For example, my group of 5 experienced both the problems of servers removing plates prematurely (when there was clearly uneaten food), but also not removing plates UNLESS requested to do so, despite finished plates being stacked to make room for new dishes. Similarly, beyond the initial ordering of water and drinks, staff didn't follow up on this, and we had to request new water jugs throughout the meal. Finally, although staff atitudes weren't negative per se, they did seem somewhat indifferent/detached. All these points may seem nit-picky, but I think it's not unreasonable to expect better service at these prices. Ultimately, Oak comes up on many recommended restaurant lists, but after this experience, although I'd still recommend it, I wouldn't be too upset if you can't manage to get a reso here given so many other great alternatives.

Absolutely scrumptious vegetarian and vegan dishes that leave you feeling refreshed and satiated!…read moreAs a tapas style, the small plates are well-priced with the recommendation of ordering 2-3 per person and sharing amongst everybody. Note that the restaurant has rebranded to OAK Restaurant with a new website, but still has the same address and contact information. The menu is quite short with only a dozen choices or so, but each dish has the finest quality of ingredients and refined yet light taste. We ordered all the dishes recommended to us by the server and loved each one: - Nocellara olives (£4.75) - Beetroot tartare, smoked almond cream (£8.95) - Heritage tomato panzanella (£8.50) - Black pepper chickpeas, smoked cashew butter, summer greens (£9.45) - Jersey curd agnolotti, hazelnuts, spinach and butter emulsion (£10.75) Dessert was delicious as well: - Stewed plums, brandy ice cream, almond crumb (£8.25) - Dark chocolate and salted caramel tart, mint ice cream (£8.25) The restaurant was not that busy with only a couple other tables filling in after coming in for our Tuesday noon reservation. We were seated at a corner booth next to a window on the ground floor, which had a relaxing breeze coming through. The cost of five open jars of sparkling water was £3. A 12.50% service charge was added onto the bill.

I too have eaten a lot of Greek food all over the place, and the Sun Inn falls right in the middle somewhere...not great but reasonably tasty with prices slightly on the high side for what it is. We started the meal with a shared table of meze filled with a variety of dips and pita. The grilled veggie were nice, but i would have preferred the Dolmades served warm, not cold (personal preference). The calamari was probably the best of the bunch in this source of the meal. For main (shared) dishes were ordered a chicken gyro platter, lamb chops and a beef burgundy type creation. The gyro platter was just okay (would have preferred lamb meat instead)...had the pita been cut into larger pockets you could have made small sandwiches with the small cuts of meat...but the pita were cut into small triangles. The beef burgundy dish was tasty served with a rich sauce including mushroom and accompanied by rice. The star of the meal were the lamp chops...grilled to perfection and served with chips and a tzatziki sauce on the side. A fun night was had by all (including crackers since it was the holidays).

A cream tea is £3.95 with one scone. Bread pudding slice was good too. Tea was good. The place is bright and airy and that it has over the old cafe. There are marvellous views over the tops of the beautiful buildings that surround it and of the green in front of the cathedral. Yet, the old cafe will always be missed by this reviewer. I have rarely seen a choice of cake like it had...and all sorts of allergies were catered for. There was more of a sense of history, being tucked within the old building. This new cafe is anodyne but in keeping with the changing tastes of we folk. Did I mention the scones were delicious and crunchy? Oh yes! :D A lovely place to take a rest before heading to watch the jousters on the clock on the hour.

The All Day Menu (from 12pm onward) changes seasonally/"from time to time" according to their website, but some recommendations if they have it: Bang Bang Cauliflower and Tempeh Caesar Salad. The reason why I come here though? Off the Breakfast Menu (served until 11:30am), it's specifically for the Monster Veggie Brekky. A plate of food I think about often, if we're being honest. Two sausages, roast portobello mushroom, bubble and squeak, tomatoes, greens, scrambled tofu, toast, and homemade beans. A side of homemade ketchup and brown sauce, an iced Americano, and a seat by the sunny window midweek late morning when it isn't super busy? That's my perfect start to a day in Bath right there. The food is fresh, plentiful, flavorful, and satisfying. And they actually do have certain baked goods and dessert available all day. Just ask. Usually they can accommodate your request. Don't leave here without trying the sticky toffee pudding!

Completely unexpected…read more While visiting Bath we stumbled upon Green Rocket Cafe. It is a cozy restaurant with excellent service from the moment you walk in. The menu has dishes ranging from 6-12 pounds, with an option for everyone. We tried multiple dishes during our visit ( a mistake because the portions are generous) and all were delicious. Each of the dishes we tried was full of flavor and had that homemade feeling. The one downside we experienced is that the food did take a while to be ready, but aside from that if you are in the Bath area, The Green Rocket Cafe is an excellent choice. My Criteria 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 stars: This restaurant should be closed.

We found a quiet atmosphere-free Free-house to decide on dinner. Bar-side with sweet cider inside us, we made a connection with the frontage opposite. A large comic font banner, a sticker in the window beckoned us to 'The Connection', but from outside we couldn't be sure if it was a restaurant or a travel agency, or even a dating agency. Then a lit candle warmed the setting under the aforementioned confusing banner. It illuminated a double date just visible at the window table. With each person looking into the middle distance they were looking like they were making anything but a connection. Hoping the food was more inspiring and afraid of the alternative offerings of only pizza or kebab, we edged cautiously over the double junction double quick to enquire. A Sandwich board outside announced it was 'Winesday', a free house bottle for every table. We went in. Entering we were heralded by pan pipes; a mix tape began swirling the comforting melody of The X Files theme tune around us. Before we had time to turn back our waiter appeared. Looking surprised to see us form a crowd on a weekday night, our jolly characterful waiter with Fawltless formality apologised for an impending slow service. Not in our best bib and tuckers however, he did seem a little shirty. "Do you have a booking", he enquired taking a formal tone (where until our arrival the place was empty). Grateful for the seats and that it was Winesday, too! The free house's choice bottle for the table more than made up for our non trumpeted arrival. Pleasantly surprised by their Chilean, I'm more than happy to blow their horn for their choice of a bold tropically lush white which complimented our food beautifully. It seemed we'd struck gold at the best place on the street. The interior of this French place was pretty snappy, all muted tones that spoke volumes that this was the town's 'nice place'. To start: My liver parfait was mousse like, light yet retained a rich smooth flavour, braced in crisp pancetta. I'd have enjoyed the accompanying brioche more but I'd buttered too much pre dinner pre warmed pumpkin seed roll to stack up on more carbs. The rest of the table were very happy with the beautifully fresh caught scallops to start, complimented by Southeast Asian spicing, but just a few of the blighters were a bit underdone for one of our likings. Not undoing the enjoyment of our evening, Seafood crepes, covered in grilled cheese were delicious but sadly the salmon within was as mushy as the concept of Parisienne romance that this French inspired brasserie was trying to convey. Also warned of the possible shot, the equally fresh duck dish sitting proudly in a pond of jus was rich and flavourful but as with any duck recipe it either needs long slow cooking to break down the tough meaty fibre or quick cooking to keep it rare as fine French food. Not offensive, but this duck was somewhat perched on the fence. What stole the show was the firm and delicate delectable lemon sole and the passionate enthusiasm of our attentive waiter. Not knowing what else Taunton had to offer, it was well worth one hell of a stopover. We wimped out at dessert, but it seemed that it was this course that kept the table adjacent to us who were out at at sea, back on course for a cheerful evening.
