We were told about this restaurant by our hosts in Bath so our expectations were high. Sadly we left very disappointed. After being seated we waited over 20 mins to be asked what we wanted to drink and the service went down hill from this point. Starters came and were lovely, mains arrived and were eaten and enjoyed but at... More

This is a gem of a restaurant. Fairly small and family run, and the food is fantastic. We were so disappointed we couldn't get in on a previous visit to Bath, so we booked well in advance this time - essential to book on Fri - Sat. Eat downstairs in the winter where you don't get a draught form the... More

What can I add I haven't said In the title. 1ST CLASS. VALUE FOR MONEY. I do have one criticism. They don't sell wine by the glass.

We barrelled in on a Wednesday evening with no booking, just the recommendation of the owner of the B&B we were staying at. No hassle, within a few minutes a table was found an we were seated and entertained by friendly and efficient staff. The food was excellent and, perhaps not the best thing to report, but we reckon the... More

We ate here for dinner on a recommendation from relations and were not disappointed. Our table was downstairs where there was a good atmosphere and we were served by a very pleasant waiter with good knowledge of the menu and a sense of humour to go with it. The food was excellent. Highly recommended!

I visited the Circus recently for a meal with my partner, we had a lovely time. The emphasis of this restaurant is the food. The atmosphere is simple, clean and uncluttered with polite relaxed staff who do not spool off rehearsed lines. Cutlery and crockery are, perfectly neutral leaving you to concentrate on the food which is nothing short of... More

Thank you for your kind comments. It is extremely gratifying to the hard work of all the staff, front of house and in the kitchen when people notice and understand what we are trying to achieve at The Circus and when you, the guests, respond in such a positive and considered manner. Thank you for taking the time to write... More
