Adventure Café
Californian bohemia mixes with urban chic at this groovy café-cum-hangout, all picture windows, distressed wood and deep sofas. Cappuccinos by morning, ciabattas at noon and cocktails after dark.
-
Blackstones Kitchen
Takeaway with a twist in a concept kitchen. Daily changing mains are cooked up before your eyes and packed up for the ultimate gourmet picnic. The menu's wide-ranging - one day it's Boston beans with cornbread, the next it's chorizo sausage casserole - and the quality matches any sit-down supper-house.
-
Blackstones Restaurant
The Blackstones team has expanded operations into this groovy restaurant across the street. The food flits from Cumberland sausage to Catalonian stews, and most of the produce is certified southwest.
-
Boston Tea Party
The city's original lunch stop is still jamming in the punters with its zingy citrus drinks, fruit smoothies and gourmet wraps, soups and sandwiches.
-
Café Retro
A café from the old school, harking back to pre-latte days. Settle in amongst arty types, earth mothers and truanting students for a slap-up burger or a veggie lasagne. Sarnies and takeaway coffees are available from Retro2Go next door.
-
Demuth's
Veggie food's all very well, but it's about as tasty as cold tea, right? Wrong. This wonderful place dispels all the myths about vegetarian cooking - it's one of Bath's most innovative eateries, churning out exciting dishes such as vegetarian dharamsala thali or Marrakech chickpea tagine.
-
Firehouse Rotisserie
Not as starry as some of Bath's restaurants, perhaps, but Fireworks is still a winner, especially if you like your flavours hot 'n' spicy. Cajun cooking, Louisiana chicken and brick-fired pizza are the trademarks.
-
FishWorks
This restaurant (half fishmonger, half seafood bistro) has proved so popular it's spawned 12 other outposts, but this is the original and best. Piscatorial treats sit on ice-packed trays; choose something to cook at home or let the chefs do the work while you soak up the street-market vibe.
-
Gascoyne Place
A stylish new restaurant on Sawclose, housed inside a renovated gentleman's club, and split into sections: two starchy-white dining rooms, plus a mezzanine, cosy snug and a candlelit bar with original medieval wall. The menu's classic British, the ambience authentic Bath.
-
Hole In The Wall
Another refined refectory that adventures through Anglo-French flavours - braised pork with Puy lentils, or Chew Magna lamb with potato fondant - in a cellar dining room that's half country restaurant, half urbane elegance.
-
Kindling
Another locals' favourite renowned for its carefully crafted café food and Manhattan coffee-shop vibe; plus free wi-fi for you and toys for the nippers (or maybe the other way round).
-
Le Petit Cochon
French farmhouse cooking on one of Bath's smartest streets, with ingredients imported from across the channel. Escargots, cassoulet and lobster bisque are served in a Gallic-chic atmosphere, full of hand-chalked menus and pine furniture. There's a less formal café-deli across the city on Widcombe Pde.
-
Olive Tree Restaurant
Chic and sleek, and one of the finest restaurants in town, this understated place with oak floors and dark leather furniture serves up a top-notch menu of simple modern British and French cuisine. You'll find it inside the Queensberry Hotel.

Onefishtwofish
Lights twinkle overhead and the tables are crammed in under a barrel-brick roof at this extraordinary cellar restaurant, which ships in its seafood from Devon ports, and cooks up everything from wonton salmon to Marseillaise bouillabaisse .
-
Parisien
Parisien Oh la la - a little soupçon of Paris in the heart of Bath. It's all authentically Gallic - tables on the terrace, moules frites on the menu and the crispiest frites this side of the English Channel.
-
Sally Lunn's
Sally Lunn's Famous Bun is synonymous with the city - it's been served at this superfrilly tearoom for three centuries. Actually more a bread than a cake, the bun can be eaten with either sweet or savoury toppings - and don't confuse it with the Bath Bun, which is smaller, sweeter and studded with currants.
-
Walrus & the Carpenter
There's a warren of rooms at this fun and funky place dishing up top-notch homemade global grub with a heavy vegetarian bias. It does brilliant burgers, Mediterranean snacks and some killer Walrus cocktails.
-
Wife of Bath
Be prepared for giant portions at this warren of Georgian cellar rooms filled with alcoves with booth-style seating. The food spans the globe, featuring dishes from as far apart as Australia and the Caribbean with a classic European touch thrown in.
-
Yum Yum Thai
Bangkok canteen food served up fast and fresh in a light, very-white interior. Pad Thai noodles, stir-fried sea bream and curried mussels with nary a dash of MSG in sight.
