Bath Inn, Penzance

Tucked away just off the promenade, the Bath Inn is a neat, tidy and comfortable pub with a relaxed ambience. A fairly plain, 2 bar interior with low beamed ceilings, paneling and bits of exposed stonework. The right hand bar is the quieter of the two but it does feel a bit like a funeral parlour. A ledge runs alongside the front wall which doubles up as a long bench but the gas fire and plastic flowers make it look a bit cheap. The main bar seemed more popular with a pool table at one end. There appeared to be a decent beer garden for the summer months but it was a dark so I didn’t get a particularly good sight of it. I felt rather anonymous in here and wasn’t entirely at home but the beers (Betty Stoggs, Sharps Own, Bass and my Cornish favourite Heligan Honey) made it worthy of a visit and it is a world away from the riotous town centre pubs on a Friday/Saturday night.
