The Northey Arms in Bath

Oh, let me tell you about The Northey Arms; it's one of those places that really hits the mark for a proper pub experience with a bit of extra comfort. Tucked away in the picturesque outskirts of Bath, it's got this warm, welcoming feel that's perfect for catching up with mates or enjoying a family outing. The food stands out – think fresh, locally sourced dishes that are packed with flavour, whether you're popping in for brunch or settling in for a full dinner. I love how the staff make you feel right at home; they're polite, attentive, and add that personal touch that turns a good visit into a memorable one. The rooms are a nice bonus if you're staying over, all nicely done up and cosy, though a couple of people found the beds a tad firm, so it might depend on what you're used to. And don't forget the outdoor space – that beer garden is brilliant on a sunny day, especially if you've got kids or a furry friend in tow. It's not without its little quirks, like the occasional train noise, but overall, it's a gem for anyone wanting to explore the area without the hassle. I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're after good grub, friendly service, and a relaxing vibe – just book ahead to make the most of it!
