    Diavola
    Mai L.

    Busy place! We did get lucky to be able to get in and seated in their upstairs. We each ordered our own pizza and it was a good size! I ordered the Parma pizza that has rocket lettuce and prosciutto. My fiancé got the Diavola which has pepperoni and jalapeños. The pizza is a thin size and you can get a dipping sauce if you want to dip your crust. I got the garlic butter (thanks papa John's). It was so good and after a day of walking around - I ate almost the whole thing!

    Cider!

    Yummy food in Bath. Was suggested by our tour guide Nicholas and it did not disappoint. Would recommend if you are in the area they were very busy but moved quickly.

    Diablo's, Mediterranean salad and garlic bread with mozzarella

    Great food, hospitality and service. Enjoyed the Mediterranean salad, garlic bread with cheese, and the Diavolo pizza. Great wine options and cider, very much enjoyed. Orlando is a star!

    Cheeseless pizza.

    Great place! Don't let the front view of the restaurant fool you. There's a lot more seating in the back of the restaurant and it's outside. Very nice. Great staff and the food was good. My family really loved their pizzas and I had one of the best bruschettas I have ever had. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of it before I ate most of it. Clean place and they make a great Long Island Ice Tea!

    Very good. We stopped here on a Sunday night and got some pizza and cheese bread. We tried the Pattitina, Margherita and marinara. A very good place in England to get authentic tasting Italian pizza. Service was a little slow, but it seems to be run by Italians, so keep that in mind.

    The Real Italian Pizza Company is a small chain (that is they have two locations in Bath and Cardiff). Simply put, they make excellent wood-fired pizza. I had the Colazione Inglese ("English Breakfast") Pizza - Sausage, Mushroom, Bacon, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Free-Range Egg, Tomatoes, and Mozzarella. It was yummy. It's a great place to go to for lunch, right next to Bath Abbey. Choose the outdoor seating when the weather cooperates.

    The olive oil with garlic infusion on the left.  Chili oil on the right.  Margharita and Toto e Peppino pizzas.

    We stopped in while on a tour of Bath. After walking the city we needed something to eat. This spot was great. Service was good. Food was great. My wife got the margarita pizza and I got the Toto e Peppito. Both very good. The chili oil is great when mixed with the garlic infused olive oil. Beware, the chili oil is spicy even for people who like spice like me (thankfully I was warned by the pleasant server).

    Delicious Pizza in a lovely window seat

    This place serves very good Pizza. I had the 'Nocina' - spinach, mozzarella, gorgonzola, and walnuts. Hubby has the 'Pollo con Funghi' - chicken, mushroom and mozzarella. They had thin crisp bases made with really delicious dough, the crusts were both light and retained an elastic bite. I enjoyed every last morsel! The service by the waiters was very good. They were friendly, personal and attentive - a pleasant surprise considering this is an informal pizzeria, not a fine restaurant. We popped in on this place to fuel up after spending several weary hours doing 'last minute Christmas shopping'. As it was about 3pm on a Monday many other restaurants and cafés had stopped serving lunch, but this place was still open. Being a large restaurant located just around the corner from the Abbey, this place is pretty busy with shoppers, tourists and families. There is plenty of seating, and despite the numbers in the restaurant we were served quickly and didn't wait long for our lunch. It's a large restaurant in two floors, high ceilings, wooden floors and lots of and natural light due to the original sash windows. The decor is a little shabby around the edges, but I suppose that is expected with the numbers of visitors it gets. For a casual and informal lunch this place is spot on.

    PLEASE NOTE: We ordered delivery from The Stable through Deliveroo…read more I was craving pizza and unsure where to get delivery from, but I really liked that The Stable made their fresh sourdough every morning using organic grains from Gloucestershire (and, actually, many of their ingredients are local). Also, they've got several plant-based options, all of which are clearly labeled on their menu. We got two Vegan Margheritas (currently £11.50) because we had heard the pizzas run a bit on the small side. I'm so glad we did; they were extremely thin and maybe the same size as something found in the frozen food aisle at the grocery store! Underwhelming all around: they were not hot upon arrival, and had absolutely no flavor. We're glad we got one each of the dips (currently £1.75; all plant-based): the garlic-herb mayo and the chipotle mayo being my favorites, the BBQ and burger sauce being my partner's favorite. They honestly did all the work for this meal. I'm not sure I would order delivery from here again. I see they've added some new things to the menu since I've last been, I haven't tried the tots yet (and how can you go wrong with fried potato), and I've never dined inside so... never say never, right?

    We visited here in May and found it to be a great spot for people watching and chowing down.

After some browsing for a few blocks, we came across Firehouse Rotisserie and decided to give it a try! First off, the restaurant is in a very beautiful, charming, old building.

It was soooo flavorful, tender, and juicy! Seriously! And it was a very filling and hearty meal that fueled our further sightseeing for the day. Service was quick and friendly as well.

My sister and I are a bit picky, but I'd had this spot marked for months in preparation for our trip to Bath as one of the few restaurants that had something we'd both eat, and boy did it turn out. We split the margarita pizza and a side of asparagus, which the chef ran all the way upstairs to make sure they had, -- it was so good. Possibly the best asparagus I've ever had, and we were stoked to get some veggies with dinner. The pizza crust was perfectly thin and crispy, but thick enough at the end to really sink your teeth into. Fresh basil and expertly roasted tomatoes (absolutely bursting with flavor) made for an off the charts margarita. It's hard to go wrong here but, this one really knocked it out of the park. Seating was quick, though we were on the earlier side, with water pitcher all to ourselves, which we love to get, and very clean well kept restrooms! -- though not very accessible, you must climb four flights of stairs. Try Mr. B's Emporium of Reading Delights if you have time before or afterwards, which is a beautiful and well stocked bookstore right across the street. Definitely stop by if you're in town, this one was a win! (Try the chocolate ice cream).

    Like any foodie, I researched places to eat prior to my trip to Bath and saw raving reviews from…read moreyelpers for Same Same Different. As we were making our way there leisurely, we came across Nonna's and the "2 meals for £9.95" appealed to us since we were on a budget so we went here instead. We were very happy with this decision. There weren't many people eating so we appreciated the quietness and the attentive service from the wait staff. They were very welcoming, pleasant and timely. My boyfriend and I both ordered a calamari as our app. He in particular was happy to have his own serving of calamari instead of sharing! I guess I don't blame him, I was happy as well :) The calamari was lightly breaded. The dip was very refreshing and paired well with the calamari. For his entree, he ordered the margherita. Our first thought was how big the pizza was! Since it was lunch and we were ordering from a special menu for this deal, we automatically assumed the portion would be small. But it wasn't at all! I didn't try the pizza but it looked very delicious. I ordered the cannelloni with ricotta and spinach instead. It came with three cannellonis. I personally felt there could've been a bit more stuffing, but the cheese and white sauce over top made up for it. It was a delicious meal and I would totally recommend it. It's not full of tourists and on the way to The Circle so after your meal, checking out the Circle would be a nice walk to shred the calories!

It was a…read moreSunday, and most things in Bath are closed, so we thought we super lucked out that this place is open. Unfortunately, it was terrible luck. Maybe it was me and my love for seafood, as the food we ordered is terribly fishy tasting. We started with a bruschetta with octopus (polpo) and all you can smell is fish when the dish arrived - and of course it's all you can taste. For dinner, I got the seafood linguine in tomato and white wine sauce and my boyfriend got the beef ravioli. The good thing is that the linguini was not short of seafood, with shrimps, prawns, mussels, calamari, and octopus. The terrible part is that it all tasted like old fish. I tried my bf's ravioli and i thought it was pretty good, but he complained about it the entire time, saying it was not that good - and really, anything is probably pretty good compared to my fishy linguine. The service was odd too. We felt rushed despite there was no one in the restaurant, and the server kept trying to get us to order more food and didn't like the fact we didn't order wine (had to drive) or dessert (the starter and mains were too terrible for us to want to eat whatever else they had to offer). The bill was reasonable i suppose, at around 10-15 quid a dish. I wish this wasn't where i ate for the day of my bday.
