The Ivy in Bath had been on our list for sometime.
At last, we managed to find time to go there. But .. sadly my experience at The Ivy was not what I expected (an experience I will hopefully never try again).
Nice place.
Over priced.
My food was tough..dry & very bland.
Staff: pleasant (but appeared under pressure).
The service charge definitely should be an option upon paying (NOT automatic).
This is easy to do ..upon paying the bill just ask the client if they wish to include the service charge.. a simple YES OR NO. (VOILA!).

They took the worst from both French and British cousins. Expensive and tasteless.

Went for a meal with my wife before going to the Theatre. Staff were friendly and pleasant. The decor was great and were seated quickly. Food was excellent and served quickly. Only grumble was service charge put on bill and not mentioned. Would recommend but next time will take service charge off.

This is my second visit to an Ivy (the first was in Chichester) and I had the same experience. The food came before the drinks, the toast with the breakfast was cold, the service was terrible. The waitress never checked in with us and I also thought she was quite rude/blunt. Take into account this was a Monday morning and it wasn’t busy in the slightest. Unfortunately the prices do not reflect the service you receive at these restaurants. I gave them the benefit of the doubt the first time but now I’ve been to another one in a different city and it’s exactly the same problems. I will not be spending anymore money at an Ivy. It’s a shame because the food is nice but for some reason their staff do not reflect the image they are going for. Disappointing to say the least.

Really disappointed with the service received at the Ivy given its reputation. It was really poor, never checked in whilst eating. Abrupt staff member. Then has the cheek to add a “service charge” to the bill. Went for breakfast and it’s nice food, it’s not worth the price however, especially considering a few items in the breakfast were cold.

Great atmosphere, waiter service but disappointing dish! Arrogant attitude of chef no remedy offered when issue raised with server. So don't choose the wild mushroom linguine. Quantity of mushrooms and pine nuts very poor given the price point.

OK - but the Sunday evening we went they had run out of steak (fillet rib eye and sirloin ) . No taxis available back to hotel between 22;00 and 22:45.

We had a very good meal here, the staff are very friendly and professional. Service was first class, and the food was well presented and full of taste. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the interior is very ornate.

A delicious lunch here on Sunday. Roast beef, fish and chips, tarte tatin. Food top notch and attentive service. Nice vibe and ambience. A similarly enjoyable experience to the Ivy Marylebone.

The service was really excellent and the waiter we had was very patient with us considering we brought our infant child with us, so from a family friendly point of view we couldn't fault it.
The food was okay. We had a few starters which were all pretty good but the surprising favourite was the Zucchini Fritti.
We ordered steaks for main, one Sirloin (Mid Rare) and one Rib Eye (Rare) which were both cooked incorrectly. The Sirloin was well-done, no pink inside at all. The Rib Eye was rare on one end and pretty much blue on the other. The sides (Thick Cut Chips, Garden Peas and Carrot and Swede Mash) were good.
Pudding was good if a little rich. We both ordered the chocolate bombe, which we both liked but found a little overly sweet.
It is very nice inside and the staff are very friendly. The seating is comfortable and the overall atmosphere is pretty relaxed.
However, if i hadn't have been given a gift card for this place i wouldn't spend the money to come back. The whole 3 courses came to nearly £180, which is pretty pricey considering the quality we got.

Stunning food! Can't fault our experience at all. Lovely waitress called Kinga, Service was quick and friendly. They amended our valentine's meal time slot as we were going to be late.
Overall a wonderful experience.
