2 people fighting fell out of this place last week. (It was only 3pm!)Strangely the police were very quick to turn up. Avoid this chav magnet!

Nasty.

I haven't had a drink here for years. I've popped in a few times, but never any proper beer to be had. Plenty of screens to show sport, but never any sound. Sounds like I've not missed much.
|
the food is really poor here and takes a bloody AGE to get to you. the atmoshere is good particularly on a sat night but I find the staff act like you are a pain in the arse for asking for a drink. Toilets are totally unacceptable. all in all a mass production pub better than some but could be much better.

Avoid! Soul destroying plastic chain-pub with shiite beer and poor staff. Go elsewhere!
|
what a load of ball, went in yesterday... had a pint.. blug. Order some shots and the manageress/boss person started serving me then stopped... served someone else as they only wanted a half and didn't want to wait!!! Ordered a combo to get tough chicken, and wedges so burned they were ash.... As for the toilets..... avoid this pub at all costs, if you are not from bath and you enter this poor excuse of a pub then Im sorry Bath pubs are not that bad!
|
I'd rather LIVE in the Lamb & Lion than go there (which I did once - I'm still undergoing therapy!)
|
why why why go to this horrible pub - there are many more within a short staggering distance

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; Then you may survive the Rat and Parrot.

decent pub and very nice staff, really cool new cocktail menu. food very decent but do not expect great cuisine. staff quirky but nice and helpfull, if they were rude to you, it's probably because you deserved it.
|
Most members of staff are rude only a few that are nice.
toilets down stairs smell like they are never clean
tables are left sticky most of the night!!!!
empty glasses never seem to be cleared away till theres no room for any more!!!!!!
best avoid it on a night out!!!!!

I agree with previous posts, very rude staff who don't seem interested in the customers. Food was average. Would not visit again.
|

Once you get in there, you'll never leave, as you'll stick to the floor, the bit that's not crowded with broken glass anyway.
|
Staff seemed to be awfully rude on a recent visit - best avoided if in the Bath area

This place used to be a nice little bar called the Westgate - They obliterated it with the chain pub. Food and service in here is pretty atrocious so I would avoid - Go over the road to the Grapes.

I found the food very good, although if you're after fine cuisine you're in the wrong place! However, I have to say I've always found the staff (usually on a Monday night) pretty terrible - slow, sullen and more interested in chatting than serving! Haven't been for a few months though, so perhaps things have improved recently.

I HAVE TO SAY AS A REGULAR CUSTOMER TO THIS PUB, I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS WITH EITHER THE FOOD OR DRINK AND THINK THEY ARE TO A GOOD STANDARD. I'D ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT THE ATMOSPHERE IN THIS PUB PARTICULARLY IN THE EVENINGS IS VERY GOOD AND MAKES A GREAT PLACE TO START YOUR EVENING OUT.

unfortunately the food has been repeatedly cold here.the staff and atmosphere is what drags me back but after experiencing yet another cold meal and dirty glass it may be a while before i return again.

The beer was terrible. The food was worse, yet, but the service was adequate. That's just the high points. I'd never been to a Rat & Parrot, but if this is any indication, never again. The good news is that the food kept me from getting a hangover, since I had no desire to drink anything more.

I used to be the 2nd chef here but left to become the kitchen manager at the R & P Woking ( also on this site ), I would like to say that the staff and management are great and the food is of a high standard, and it was a pleasure working with ya all, especially Mike, Harry & Rachel.
