Corona Virus Update
Due to the Covid-19 Virus pandemic and UK government guidance we have had to temporarily close our pubs to protect our customers and staff until further notice. We urge you all to stay safe and wish you the best during these worrying times.
This also means we can no longer offer our usual service for our online Click & Collection of Beers from our pubs. But all is not lost - you can order online from the Abbey Ales Shop and have your Beer in a Box or Bottles delivered direct to your home...
NEW SERVICE FREE DELIVERY FOR LOCAL AREA!

A Choice of Great Pubs in the Heart of Bath
We have four great pubs within Bath city centre, each offering its own individual character and atmosphere, yet all with something in common... a friendly welcome, tasty food & snacks and of course great beers.
We are also proud to own and run Bath's oldest brewery Abbey Ales which we founded in 1997 and was the first and only brewery in the historic City of Bath for over fifty years. Our flagship multi-award winning ale Bellringer was successfully launched at the Bath CAMRA beer festival way back in October 1997 and is now the top selling cask bitter in the World Heritage City of Bath, remaining as popular as ever with the many visitors to the Georgian City as it does with local Bathonians.
A hotspot for televised sport, The Assembly Inn is the sports bar of the Abbey Ales family. Located on Alfred Street, off Lansdown Road, north of Bath city centre. Offering 4 large screen TVs and projector, including Amazon Prime for the football, we are Bath’s premier sports bar. With 2 pool tables and a secret courtyard garden, there is something for everyone.
A fully functioning Cellar Bar is available for functions. Such as meetings, band practice, music events and parties. Free to hire subject to conditions.

Home to Abbey Ales traditional and craft ales including Abbeys signature brew ‘Bellringer’ plus other local guest ales and craft beers on constant rotation, the Assembly Inn also offers a variety of continental lagers and local ciders.

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.

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 19th 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?

The Trinity Inn is a 'local' pub in the city centre located on James Street West, to the edge of Kingsmead Square. We're a popular live music and sports venue with a great choice of beers and guest ales - we also offer a good range of fresh rolls, pasties and scotch eggs at the bar.
