Gab the manager was a great host. Looked after us so well. And his brother behind the bar makes class cocktails.
This is a real quirky and different cocktail bar, that if you come bath you have to visit. Reminders me of the Incognito Bar in Winchester! Get staff are super friendly and what's more they know how to make a cocktail! Had the lychee Ice Tea and Moscow Mule (choose the rum option) whilst the wife asked for a dirty Martini. All were made perfectly, they weren't mean with the alcohol and what's more not 'ripoff' prices!!! Having been to so many cocktail bars where you pay £18 for a half arsed cocktail that tastes like it was canned, this place is the real deal! Ask for a bespoke cocktail and these geniuses will make u something special. I asked for a spicy rum number and what I got was incredible (at standard price). Didn't want to leave and a massive highlight of our Bath stay We will definitely come again! Oh.....did I mention.....book Bath and go there now!!!
super cute place. doorman was so kind and polite. i really enjoyed talking to him. drinks are good and reasonable prices. lots to choose from. interior is cute and has loads of places to sit. very comfy vibes.
I dislike that you have to go up and order your drinks at the bar, this place is set up for table service. That being said, the service was great, very friendly, and lovely vibe in the place, perfect on a winter night. Creative and yummy cocktails.
Spending a few hours in the secret bar beneath Pulteney Bridge was really an unforgettable experience. The bar us artistic and provides a vibe of being swathed by various art periods. Their cocktails are contemporarily fresh. I have no clear explanation on it, but it's the most unique and fantastic bar that you should visit once you come to Bath.
What a find! Absolutely gorgeously decorated cocktail bar hidden underneath a road in central Bath. Very quirky place, but in a good way. Wasn't busy at all midweek, service was good, and drinks were nice. Cocktails were about a tenner. Definitely has the wow factor just for the interior alone. Would highly recommend.
Known as Bath’s “best-known secret” if you like cocktail bars, this is the place for you. This is quite possibly one of the coolest cocktail bars that we’ve ever been to. Opium is a bespoke designed bar that is underneath Spring Gardens Road, right by Pulteney Bridge. It is so neat because it feels like you are searching for and finding a secret place! Because it is under a bridge, the bar is kind of sectioned off into three parts (there is also a secret room you can book for parties!). Each section has its theme and mood. The aesthetic screams chill and relaxation. What a vibe. Pair that with a delicious cocktail, sign me up… sign you up! It wasn’t that busy when we went, as it was earlier and a weeknight, but I can’t imagine how amazing it would be there when the place was full. We sat at the back, on cushions on the floor. I fully “lounged” out. On our way out we got chatting with the bartenders, as we normally do, and they couldn’t talk enough about how much they loved living in Bath. It is always great to hear that in a city you’re visiting.
Oh, the bartenders here were delightful and talked to my lonely self as I was their first customer of the evening and from USA. Found the place just walking by and it looked so inviting I had to stop. The drinks were made with care and specialized for my tastes. The decor was gorgeous and unique in a city full of pubs and restaurants.
Lovely cocktail bar just behind Pulteney Bridge. Down a side road into a cellar! Full of character and drinks are fabulous! Definitely recommend the, Secret Garden cocktail! So much to see whilst having a drink or natter and the music is an added bonus, if your a hip hop or grime fan! Definitely coming back!
