King William

We ate here on a recent trip to Bath and really enjoyed it. The venue is split into a small, comfortably 'rustic' pub / bar on the ground floor and a cosy first floor dining room. It was totally packed on a Friday night and we were lucky to be squeezed into a candlelit corner table.

The menu is quite heavy on the meat and is definitely a cut above your average pub fare. Our battered hake and chips was enormous and delicious, served with homemade tartare sauce. I would have preferred peas to the salad but that's a minor quibble. For dessert, my chocolate pot with honey ice-cream was well worth the wait. Service was slightly slow throughout because it was so busy and there is only a small team of staff, but the warmth and friendliness of the manager and bar staff made up for any delays.

Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Bath, especially if you're looking for somewhere away from the centre.
