Discover the culinary delights of Bath this month
ALFRESCO DINING AND DRINKING
Soak up the continental vibe on the city’s elegant terraces and savour sensational flavours in sun trapped gardens.
Take in the city’s stunning skyline over a refreshing glass of Pimm’s on the rooftop terrace of The Hall & Woodhouse and continue the party with an award-winning cocktail in Sub 13’s hidden garden.
Throw yourself into the food fiesta at the Abbey Hotel’s Terrace Bar and tuck into small plates of mouth-watering food whilst soaking up the buzz of the city. Or enter the tranquil gardens of The Royal Crescent Hotel and indulge in a decadent afternoon tea, full of the flavours of summer.
While away the hours over local ales and ciders in the tranquil walled gardens of the Marlborough Tavern. Or bask in the evening sun over a pint of the popular Edison or a humorously named nanobrew at Electric Bear Brewing Co.
