The Elder Restaurant

Food was excellent, but was even more impressed by the level of service. friendly and affable staff combined with both vegetarian and vegan menus make this restaurant accessible to all. i’d recommend the deer for non-veg and masala cauliflower for veg folks. extensive dessert and drink options round things off nicely!

Had a lovely meal at elder this evening. enjoyed the six course tasting menu which gives you an opportunity to try more of the menu than the a la carte (although smaller portions of each dish). service was really friendly throughout and provided good explanations of all the dishes. the restaurant is pretty interesting as it has lots of smaller rooms (due to the historic building). we found it a nice atmosphere all round.

It was my first trip to bath during the easter weekend. i was treated to a fabulous lunch at the elder. the prefix menu i chose was a pigeon tart and a sunday roast. i was not able to stay to try the sticky toffee pudding since i was running to a tour of bath. but the two courses i had were very elevated and tasted great. the yorkshire pudding alone was scrumptious, light and aiery. the service was very attentive and the décor has an old hunting lodge feel.

The elder in bath is a true culinary delight, a place where the ambiance is just right, the food is exquisite, a real work of art, and the service is impeccable, from the start. my recommendation is to get the tasting menu in full, each dish is a masterpiece, an edible jewel, explore the wine list, you need some good fuel, and by the time you read the menu, you'll start to drool. the location is prime, with a vibe that's sublime, and as you look at the walls, you might spot a serious bull sign, it's a place to indulge, to savor every bite, and you might even think, this is worth a parliament invite. so don't hesitate, just make a reservation, the elder is a true destination, where food, service, and location blend in harmony, a culinary experience, worth every penny.

Had the tasting menu and the quality was outstanding. i think some of the dishes were pushing it a bit, like sharing a bread roll between 2 people, particularly when dining with new people. however, this doesn’t take away from the perfection of each dish.
