Acorn Vegetarian Kitchen - Nocellara olives (£4.75).

BOTTOM LINE: Although the food was great, the service left a bit of a bad aftertaste…read more Located next to the infamous Sally Lunn's, Oak (previously known as Acorn - get it?! - and still listed as such on Yelp) is located in the core area of Bath. It's a small space, and I can't imagine there being space for more than 25-30 diners (or even less), and each table as relatively small in size (more on this later). First, the good part. The food remains the main attraction, and ingredients across the board tasted consistently fresh. Whether it was the HAZELNUT RISOTTO, the ROASTED COURGETTES/ZUCCHINI, the BEETS, or the TOMATO SOUP, I found they were prepared to a high standard. The dishes are meant to be sharing plates, but this can cause some table real estate problems (also, more on this later). But now, the not-so-good part, the comparatively poorer service, especially when compared to similarly-priced restaurants (e.g., Sotto Sotto), or even less (e.g., Sally Lunn, Yak Yeti Yak, etc.), and then the gall to charge a higher service percentage of 12.5%. For example, my group of 5 experienced both the problems of servers removing plates prematurely (when there was clearly uneaten food), but also not removing plates UNLESS requested to do so, despite finished plates being stacked to make room for new dishes. Similarly, beyond the initial ordering of water and drinks, staff didn't follow up on this, and we had to request new water jugs throughout the meal. Finally, although staff atitudes weren't negative per se, they did seem somewhat indifferent/detached. All these points may seem nit-picky, but I think it's not unreasonable to expect better service at these prices. Ultimately, Oak comes up on many recommended restaurant lists, but after this experience, although I'd still recommend it, I wouldn't be too upset if you can't manage to get a reso here given so many other great alternatives.

Absolutely scrumptious vegetarian and vegan dishes that leave you feeling refreshed and satiated!…read moreAs a tapas style, the small plates are well-priced with the recommendation of ordering 2-3 per person and sharing amongst everybody. Note that the restaurant has rebranded to OAK Restaurant with a new website, but still has the same address and contact information. The menu is quite short with only a dozen choices or so, but each dish has the finest quality of ingredients and refined yet light taste. We ordered all the dishes recommended to us by the server and loved each one: - Nocellara olives (£4.75) - Beetroot tartare, smoked almond cream (£8.95) - Heritage tomato panzanella (£8.50) - Black pepper chickpeas, smoked cashew butter, summer greens (£9.45) - Jersey curd agnolotti, hazelnuts, spinach and butter emulsion (£10.75) Dessert was delicious as well: - Stewed plums, brandy ice cream, almond crumb (£8.25) - Dark chocolate and salted caramel tart, mint ice cream (£8.25) The restaurant was not that busy with only a couple other tables filling in after coming in for our Tuesday noon reservation. We were seated at a corner booth next to a window on the ground floor, which had a relaxing breeze coming through. The cost of five open jars of sparkling water was £3. A 12.50% service charge was added onto the bill.

The veggie burger appeared and tasted like real beef. It's offered as a single or double where you can choose from different condiments such as garlic mayo, mango chutney, burger relish, curried mayo, chili sauce, or your standard mustard. It comes with a generous serving of chips (fries). For a veggie burger, it is surprisingly filling. This place made such an impression on Ryan S. and I that we came back a second time. I couldn't do another veggie burger but ordered the Greek Salad. Prices are a little higher than other places but they serve pretty big portions. Beers are solid. Have a seat out in the backyard if the weather is warm.

Rick Stein - Mussels with garlic and wilted spinach

We visited the Rick Stein restaurant on a short stay in Malborough, as my partner loves seafood…read more (Although I am vegetarian, there were options available, including on the set menu.) There are dining rooms both upstairs and down, the latter behind the small bar area. You enter through the shop: the decor - despite this being an 18th century heritage building - is fresh and modern, with dark wood and pale walls, and selected modern art on the walls. We chose the set menu, 3 courses for £26.95. Our starters were the steamed mussels in cider with spring onion and spinach, and roasted red pepper soup; mains were salmon fishcakes with watercress and the chickpea curry (plus a side of hispi cabbage); and we both had the sunken chocolate cake with clotted cream for pudding. (NB the Welsh rarebit isn't veggie - it's made with anchovies.) My starter and main (soup and curry) were perfectly good - the soup especially so - but not exceptional. It didn't surprise me as Rick Stein - both the chef and restaurant - are really all about seafood. My partner found the mussels superb - fresh, sweet, with just the right amount of sauce. Likewise, the fishcakes were excellent and, although they looked small on arrival, they were actually quite filling, and generous on the salmon. The hispi cabbage proved the perfect accompaniment to both mains. The chocolate cake was smooth and velvety, but not too sweet (think a brownie sort of texture) - and perfect if you like dark chocolate. We chose a 250ml glass each of one of the recommended Sauvignon blancs, which also proved a good choice. Service was excellent throughout, and the young server was very skilled at making us feel at home. Including service, the bill came to £95 for two, which for a fine dining experience was pretty good value. Others certainly think so, as on a wet mid-week evening it was packed (so booking definitely advised). There's parking along the main street outside - not a problem in the evening, but potentially a bit more challenging at lunchtime.

There we were, having driven from Chatsworth on our way to Beaulieu, ready to stop for lunch to…read moremeet some old friends coming from Salisbury - and of course you're doing well till you get an unannounced monumental traffic jam with only about 10 miles to go Told our friends and the resto - no problem they said, don't stress...anyway we had a great lunch; the service was excellent and its so relaxing there...we have been to Winchester often and to Padstow, but this was the first occasion here. And yes lots of fish but there is a good choice for everyone Its a long way to go for a lunch but I fully recommend it - and - it is reasonably priced...Ramsay always says his lunches in his places are the best value...and so it was here...and a reasonably priced for the quality...3 courses each, total £75 for the 2 of us Nice

The All Day Menu (from 12pm onward) changes seasonally/"from time to time" according to their website, but some recommendations if they have it: Bang Bang Cauliflower and Tempeh Caesar Salad. The reason why I come here though? Off the Breakfast Menu (served until 11:30am), it's specifically for the Monster Veggie Brekky. A plate of food I think about often, if we're being honest. Two sausages, roast portobello mushroom, bubble and squeak, tomatoes, greens, scrambled tofu, toast, and homemade beans. A side of homemade ketchup and brown sauce, an iced Americano, and a seat by the sunny window midweek late morning when it isn't super busy? That's my perfect start to a day in Bath right there. The food is fresh, plentiful, flavorful, and satisfying. And they actually do have certain baked goods and dessert available all day. Just ask. Usually they can accommodate your request. Don't leave here without trying the sticky toffee pudding!

Completely unexpected…read more While visiting Bath we stumbled upon Green Rocket Cafe. It is a cozy restaurant with excellent service from the moment you walk in. The menu has dishes ranging from 6-12 pounds, with an option for everyone. We tried multiple dishes during our visit ( a mistake because the portions are generous) and all were delicious. Each of the dishes we tried was full of flavor and had that homemade feeling. The one downside we experienced is that the food did take a while to be ready, but aside from that if you are in the Bath area, The Green Rocket Cafe is an excellent choice. My Criteria 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 stars: This restaurant should be closed.
