Bath’s not so hidden gem, the Coeur de Lion is Bath's Smallest Pub and can be found tucked away in Northumberland Place opposite the Guildhall in the heart of the city centre.
The menu offers traditional pub classics – like bangers and mash, fish and chips. Not just a pub for foodies, the Coeur is also renowned for its excellent choice of real ales.

The pub comes to life on Bath RFC days – especially before and after the game. Long established as a city center meeting point, the Coeur de Lion attracts a great mix of locals and tourists alike.

Proud Winners of the CAMRA Pub of the Year Award 2022!
Situated on Vineyards (The Paragon), The Star Inn remains a classic example of an untouched multi-roomed English public house, where beer is still served from the jug. First licensed in 1760, The Star Inn retains many of its original features including 18th century bar fittings and wooden benches. Described by CAMRA (The Campaign for Real Ale) as a ‘rare and unspoiled pub interior of outstanding historic interest’, the Star Inn is listed on the National Inventory of Heritage Pubs.

The pub features four separate drinking areas. The smaller bar, still used by many of the regulars, features a long single bench known as ‘death row’ where a complimentary pinch of snuff can still be found in tins on the ledge above the wall paneling. Uninterrupted by juke boxes or gaming machines, chat amongst the locals is the theme here. If that doesn't take your fancy, perhaps dominoes, cribbage or shove halfpenny?
