  “Me and my husband had an afternoon tea at this lovely establishment, and ended up trying a bun. Which was beautiful but not as lovely as our waitress Phoebe. She was very respectful even though we took a long time to order. I would highly recommend and would 100% go again.”

  “Wonderful place to visit, combining history with great food and beautiful vintage decorations. The menu is fairly limited as it centered around their traditional recipe of buns, but the food is delicious and very special, and beautifully presented.”

  “We had the breakfast bun and it was sooo good. The bun was almost like garlic bread and all ingredients on it were lovely. We are already planning when we will be back during this trip to try a sweet bun. The only thing I will say is the americano was very weak”

  “A truly exceptional and historic spot that's definitely worth a visit. I got the Light Lunch and it was enough for a late lunch/dinner, the Welsh Rarebit Special was delicious and the soup of the day was a comforting tomato and basil, also the pot of house tea was splendid. The staff was friendly and attentive, i went alone and had a fantastic time. I do recommend making a reservation, the place is quite popular (totally earned) but they have so many tables so the wait time is not atrocious but better safe than sorry, you dont want to miss this one.”

  “We absolutely loved having dinner here. It is one of the oldest establishments in Bath. The food is very generous and so tasty. We had the chicken trencher and the beef and mushroom one as well. Then we had dessert, custard pie with lemon curd. The staff were fantastic and friendly. Our night was perfect. Highly recommend, but make sure you book so you don't miss out.”

  “I couldn't leave Bath without trying the famous Sally Lunn’s! The shop itself is incredibly cute and full of history. I started by checking out the basement museum, where the lovely lady working there let me order a lemon bunn to go. ​Service was quick, and they served it warmed up in a nice little box. As for the taste? I’m honestly not sure how I feel! It was a good bun with lemon curd on top, but it didn't completely blow me away. I’m glad I checked it off my bucket list, but I probably wouldn't rush back for another. ​Still, taste is subjective, and the history alone makes it worth a stop if you’re exploring the area!”

  “We had a lovely visit to Sally Lunn's. The gentleman at the entrance was very welcoming and showed us downstairs to the museum, which was a fascinating part of the experience and well worth visiting. …”

  “Great experience if you want to taste a bit of history. The tea was delicious. The Sally Lunn Bun is basically like an oversized hamburger bun, but the experience was worth it. I had the salmon bun, which was very tasty. The salmon was high quality. And the lemon curd bun with cream was also worth a try. The buns are large, so it might be a good idea to split one of the sweet buns.”

  “A very interesting place for a meal. Very old and historic building with food from past eras. Small but interesting menu. Check out the downstairs museum to learn about how the buns were made.”
