Harden's says

Set in a Georgian former greenhouse close to Bath city centre, this restaurant and bottle shop from an upmarket West Country pub group features modern British cooking from accomplished chef George Barson, who ran the kitchens at Kitty Fisher's and Cora Pearl in London.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

This widely fêted newcomer is a “welcome restaurant version” of the nearby Beckford Bottle Shop (see also), set “in a lovely old greenhouse” with “very nicely done décor”. “The food is very good indeed” under highly rated ex-Kitty Fisher’s/Cora Pearl chef George Barson, and has wowed critics including Grace Dent of The Guardian (“a delicious paean to modern British classics and comfort foods”) and Giles Coren of The Times (“staggering beef tongue crumpet”). Top Menu Tip – “the fried pommes Anna are to die for”.
