DRINK, EAT & SLEEP IN THE HEART OF BATH
A Georgian Inn with uncommon quality, The Griffin has been welcoming locals and visitors to Bath for nearly 300 years.

Tucked a stone’s throw away from the bustling city centre, the pub offers a lively, but laidback space to unwind – over a pint, over a meal or overnight.

We’ve got outstanding beer, wine and spirits behind the bar, with no end of cosy corners to enjoy them.

We’re here for the proper pub.

    Really enjoyed the Sunday lunch here. The veggie wellington was delicious & my sons enjoyed the roast beef. Puds were very good too. Our waitresses were very efficient. We will be back again when we return to Bath.

    The gluten free options were not great. The server was amazing and noticed just before I started to eat something that I had been served an item that had gluten rather than it being gluten free. There was no separate fryer for chips which I am told is not the norm, so ended up with a burger and salad. They did however discount me for this but overall it wasn’t the best food experience as a coelaic and I wouldn’t recommend it to other gluten free people.

    Comfortable room, great food and lovely staff. Can’t beat the location right in the centre of Bath.

    Unexpectedly delicious late Sunday lunch - roast beef for husband- one of best very long time apparently- sea bass for me, that came with very fresh herb salsa, decent size fish perfectly cooked and fresh veggies. Dog friendly and overall friendly service. If there was a but, slightly too loud music behind me that on a few tracks distracting… We’ve been to much more upmarket places for Sunday lunch and had indifferent food, so great job team Griffin! First food visit but will be back. Thanks.
