Sally Lunn's Tea Rooms

4 North Parade Passage, Bath, United Kingdom

 

Sally Lunn's House is the oldest known house in Bath. The present timber-framed building dates from 1492 and Roman and Medieval remains have been found below the cellar floor. Sally Lunn, a young French girl, did not arrive until 1680. She brought with her a recipe for the sweet, brioche-style bread that has become known as the Sally Lunn Bun. The tearooms are sadly not designed for the numerous visitors wanting to experience a taste of the famous Sally Lunn Bun, which makes for a cosy dining experience.

  • Novelty, waiter service.
  • Poor congested passage ways: one way in one way out.

“Most small places dont cater well for large groups. Sally Lunns is no exception. There are three floors with occasional tables and seating. It is busy around lunchtime. Go without expecting to eat straight away and be prepared to wait (outside/ in entrance lobby) and a pleasant meal can be savored at your leisure. Once seated there is no haste to be moved on. I went to taste the bun; yet left after tea, main meal and scummy pudding. Whilst the food is more expensive than say a little chef, you are paying for more than just the food: service, novelty, atmosphere etc. The basement - 4 sq meter - museum had static displays and showed history floor levels. Otherwise it had not a lot to recommend apart from that is where buns are bought to take away. The buns/flavored butters were great and freeze/keep well.”

“We had a few days in Bath and discovered this great little restaurant. The weather was appalling but we were immediately made welcome as we walked through the door. We had a lovely meal; the staff looked after us well and the surroundings intriguing. If we get back to Bath, this place will be on our list for a revisit.”
