The Old Green Tree, Bath

Good place to tuck yourself away and escape the tourists. Haven't eaten there for ages, mainly because I've never been able to get a table!, but the food was always worth a stop if you could find space to eat it.

This is a great little pub. There are 2 small rooms and a drinking corridor all with oak panelling installed in the 1920’s. The front lounge, where we sat, has pictures of World War 2 aircraft all around the walls. Friendly locals and staff ensured a pleasant visit. 5 handpumps on the bar, Old Green Tree bitter, which is brewed for them by Blindmans Brewery and 4 changing guests. Both the pints I had were very well kept. Another definite when on a Bath pub crawl.

A small cosy locals pub where visitors are tolerated although it's not easy to get to the bar at busy times when the only free space is in the corridor that runs alongside the short bar. There is also a small snug/lounge with a few tables. Decent selection of beers which are generally sourced locally.

I agree with John's recommendation but without the smoke...happy days. This is the sort of place you have to try. It is a little claustrophobic though but comprises of 3 very small Oak panelled rooms with some character. A good selection of ales and friendly staff, give it a tryout.

A range of real ales but very smokey and claustrophobic but thank goodness as of from Sunday 1st july the smoke will not be a problem
