The Grapes

About

Step into one of Bath's most extraordinary pubs, housed within one of the city's rarest and oldest buildings, lovingly restored to its historic splendour. The Grapes isn't just any pub - this award-winning freehouse (voted the Best Bar in Bath in 2020) has created something truly special in the heart of the city.

As a proudly independent pub, The Grapes champions local breweries and cideries, offering carefully selected ales and ciders alongside a thoughtfully curated collection of beers and wines. What makes this pub remarkable is its refreshingly different atmosphere: no sports screens, no gaming machines, no televisions, just a genuinely welcoming and delightfully quirky space where conversation and community thrive.

Most evenings, The Grapes comes alive with music sessions, live bands, or DJ sets, creating an authentic pub experience that celebrates local talent. During the day, this versatile space transforms into something equally special, hosting yoga and pilates classes, life drawing sessions, engaging lectures, and even a philosophical debating society.

Visit during a quieter moment and the passionate owners will gladly take you on a fascinating tour of this historic gem. And if you fall in love with the place (as many do), you can extend your stay in one of the five characterful rooms at Pococks Lodgings, each brimming with original period features.

The Grapes proves that the best pubs aren't just about great drinks - they're about creating genuine community spaces where history, culture, and hospitality blend seamlessly together.
