    Creamy base topped with tender meat glazed in a rich sauce, garnished with microgreens for a sophisticated presentation.

    Wonderful staff but the food was very poor. We ordered the lemon sole but there was barely and flesh on it, mainly bone. Relieved that we had a 50% discount as paying nearly 30 pound for a main with the quality that was served is very disappointing. Will not be going back.

    Square Grill Brasserie & Piano BarOwner

    During our recent visit to the Square Grill House Piano Bar Brasserie in Bath, we experienced a delightful dining experience. I ordered the fillet steak cooked medium-rare, which was prepared to perfection—tender and flavorful. My girlfriend chose the beef tortellini, a dish that has received high praise from the waitress. She thoroughly enjoyed it, although she did say the pasta was very thick. The restaurant’s ambiance, complemented by live piano music, created a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were attentive and friendly, enhancing our overall experience.

    Square Grill Brasserie & Piano BarOwner

    Hi Niall, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit. It’s wonderful to know your fillet steak was prepared perfectly to medium-rare and that your girlfriend enjoyed the beef tortellini—we appreciate her feedback about the pasta thickness and will certainly take it into consideration. We’re delighted that the live piano music and inviting atmosphere added to your evening, and that our friendly, attentive team helped make your experience special. We hope to welcome you back soon!

    Good food and attentive service. I hadn't realised they don't have live music on a Sunday night. Great value with a Fork Festival deal. A pleasant evening.

    Lightly fried calamari garnished with parsley and red pepper, served with a chargrilled lemon half and a creamy dipping sauce.
    Beef tartare shaped neatly and topped with a quail egg yolk, garnished with microgreens, served with toasted bread and drizzled with green herb oil.

    The staff were very warm and welcoming. The waiter was very friendly & the pianist put the icing on the cake. I was very impressed by this restaurant. The food was delicious

    Food was fantastic and fresh and the service was excellent. The only downside to the evening was the live singer as he was not very good.

    Hi Raymond thank you for your email. We are pleased you enjoyed the food and the service on Saturday. We are sorry Tristian our pianist / singer for the evening was not to your liking. We have passed on your feedback. We look forward to welcoming you soon perhaps when another singer is performing. Kind regards

    We booked the Square because we love the decor and vibe of the Piano Bar. We followed the refurbishment with the marbling decor and were very disappointed to be shown to a table upstairs. The room was very crowded with little room between tables, not at all romantic on Valentines Day. Food and service were good, let down by the staff canteen vibe upstairs.

    Poached eggs on toasted English muffins, topped with creamy hollandaise sauce, fresh lettuce, and microgreens.

    Lovely place to stop and get a bite to eat. Sitting outside, you can hear the lovely music played by the street performers. You are right next to Bath Abbey., which is beautiful. The staff are so lovely. Very welcoming and attentive. The food is nice and a reasonable price.

    We ate from the set menu and the starter and main course were both excellent. The meal was slightly let down by the black cherry sundae dessert, which was, sadly, very unimaginative, with fairly ordinary ingredients and presentation. An enjoyable meal overall, but if the dessert could have been improved, it would have been excellent.

    Wonderful food. Could not fault it at all. However, the lack of empathy shown by the waitress to a simple request.....could I have a few oysters before my starter please.....was met with 'we can't bring them out before your starter'?

    Sunday lunch with my husband before going to Theatre Royal. Sunday lunch was very nice, though I would have liked some cauliflower cheese.

    Lively atmosphere, great service. Good food, my chicken schnitzel in particular was excellent. On the pricey side but on a par for restaurants in the centre of Bath. Would happily return.

    Creamy cheesecake topped with whipped cream, chocolate pieces, and fruit, accompanied by raspberry puree, powdered sugar, a fresh strawberry, and a slice of caramelized banana.
    Roasted duck breast glazed with a rich sauce, served with sweet roasted grapes and fresh microgreens, complemented by a drizzle of red fruit coulis.
    Creamy ravioli stuffed with cheese, coated in a rich sauce, garnished with grated cheese, microgreens, and saffron strands.

    Lovely and cozy restaurant with a chique environment and amazing food. I had the beef tartare and the slow cooked beef tortellini and the cheesecake for dessert. Highly recommend all of them, but I don't think u can miss any options available. The Chilean red wine Chateau Los boldos with grapes from Portugal was one of the bests I have ever had. Also had the chance to meet a kind waiter that's working there to help his mother and did a 5 stars service. Will return, when we go back to bath.

    Unfortunately it wasn’t what I expected from tripadvisor reviews. It looks tired from omtge outside and doors through to our table bed a lick of paint. We had ravers a table and we sat next to the serving area I prune as all I could hear was the loud coffee maker. The lunch menu wasn’t appealing either and as it was my friends birthday I wanted to take her somewhere special. The waiter was perfectly lovely and we ordered two cocktails but the cocktails were full of ice and really couldn’t taste the alcohol. Unfortunately at that we made our excuses and left. Two cocktails nearly £30 was not worth it. We ended up going to a lovely place in Bartlett road. I think it gets a lot of tourists and it is in an excellent position but unfortunately we won’t be returning.
