The Shrine, Bath

The successor to Wolf Wine’s pub the other side of the river is this double stall in the old railway station, the same complex as their main business outlet. The stalls have no internal drinking room, but maybe that doesn’t matter as the whole thing is under cover anyway. There are a few benches close by which we assumed were part of this business though they could have belonged to the pizza shack next door. On offer was a selection of their wines, which it must be said aren’t great. The beer selection is also a let-down – no real ale, and only one keg beer, some obscure Estonian brew which lacked body, taste and flavour. The same beer was also the sole bottled offering, though there was a variety of other obscure beers in cans. The staff were a little eccentric or foreign, neither quality making us feel welcome, and it felt a bit uncomfortable sitting there on the concourse with strange people wandering around us. I’m not in a hurry to pay homage here again.
