Opium Bar in Bath

You know, chatting about Opium Bar feels like sharing a good yarn over a pint – it's one of those places in Bath that really hits the mark for a memorable evening. The atmosphere is spot on, all cosy and intimate, which makes it ideal for catching up with mates or spicing up a special event like a hen party in their secret room; I love how it creates that perfect buzz without feeling overwhelming. The staff are genuinely brilliant, always up for a chat and making sure everything runs smoothly, which really elevates the whole experience. And the cocktails? They're a treat – creative mixes that taste fantastic and leave you wanting another round. On the flip side, it's a bit of a faff having to head to the bar for orders when you'd rather stay put, and don't forget your ID or you might be turned away, which can put a dampener on things if you're not prepared. Overall, it's a solid choice for cocktail enthusiasts, with more highs than lows, but it's always good to go in with eyes wide open so you can make the most of it.
