We feel ripped off ! We were with a group of friends so not paying attention when ordering some drinks . Only in the morning we looked at the receipt and couldn’t believe what we had been charged …. £18 for a very ropey glass of wine !  It was a Macon Village which is about £6-£8 for a whole bottle in a supermarket . A round of two drinks and two packets of stale crisps was £39.60 . Incredible !! The tables were sticky, the bar snacks out of date and there was no atmosphere … ripped off !

Warning ! One glass of crap wine - £18!

I paid a flying visit to my daughter who is at the university. I booked a single ensuite room. The room was very clean and perfect for me, with nice touches such as a Nespresso coffee machine and bottled water. The shower had excellent pressure. 

All the staff were extremely friendly and I felt comfortably as a solo guest. I spent part of the evening in the bar with my daughter and her friends and the drinks were well priced and delicious: I was impressed with my Negroni. There were a number of people having dinner- something I will do next time I visit.

 The inn does not serve breakfast but there is a lovely espresso bar next door with coffee and morning goods. The inn itself is in an excellent location and all sights/ museums/shops/ restaurants are easily reached by foot.

Excellent value, comfort and location

I stayed at the Griffin inn for one night at the beginning of April. I stayed in room 5 Beau. The room is very small but idea for a solo traveller who was staying for one night. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. I was unhappy with the espresso machine and would have preferred a kettle to boil hot water only. My tariff included a meal which was very good quality.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is nobody on-site durning the night which might be a problem. There was a little outside noise but it was mostly quiet during the night. The accommodation was very near to the Abbey and Roman Baths so a plus there. They will also store your luggage for the day after checking out.

Solo travel near to the Abbey

Excellent family friendly pub. 
Beautiful food and super friendly and helpful service. The barmen really went out if his way to accommodate our mum who is a wheelchair. 9 of our family had such a pleasant time together in this quaint pub. Highly recommended.

A typical English pub to go to.

We booked a table on a Friday evening for a meal and a couple of beers.
I had the chicken pie which only had a paltry amount of filling. My wife had a beefburger that looked as if it had been bought from the Asda smart price range.
We didn't have time to ask for replacements as we were off to the Theatre.
A glass of wine cost £17.60! Beer was ok and reasonably priced.
The staff were on the cusp of being surly and insisted on calling everyone 'guys'.
Will not be returning.

Poor and overpriced.

Lovely room with a very comfy bed. Reasonably priced for a city stay. The food and service let the stay down - the meals were overpriced for what they were (the 'seasonal veg' with my meal was kale which took up a third of the plate). Our food was brought out but no cutlery given - the member of staff who served us then forgot to bring it, so our meals had been with us for five minutes before we got any cutlery to eat them with. The place could be improved with some friendlier service - it all just seemed impersonal, which is a shame as the pub itself is lovely. 

Could be so much better

Just popped in for a pre theatre beer. Instant service, and the beer is exquisite. Cornish ale, beautiful temperature and beautifully kept. Reasonable price. Wish I could stay longer. If I'm in Bath again, I'll surely come again.

Happy visit

Pub was recommended to us but a very disappointing visit.  Walked in and there was no-one behind the bar although the waitress acknowledged us but was serving food,  stood around about 10 minutes but no service so left without even having a drink. 
Not sure if the barman was outside on his phone but he didn't come back in even though others came in after us.

Disappointed in service

Excellent restaurant. We were amazed at the high quality of the offerings on the small, but very varied menu. The service was excellent and matched the really comfortable decor. We were a party of seven adults and one child and one dog. We were made to feel very welcome for an early evening Sunday roast. There was no high seat for infants and no kids’ menu - so if you’re dining with very young kids plan accordingly. It’s definitely worth making any effort. 

Very good food and service 

Great little place. Friendly staff and great selection of spirits. Cosy and not too busy which is a nice change from busy Kingsmead Square.

Definitely will be back to try the wine list and maybe some food!
