Got a craft beer nut on your hands? Bath Brew House makes its beer onsite and, along with being a great place for a pint, also lets you in on their secrets. You can either take part in their daily half an hour tour, or if you really want to get in deep, there's a brewery experience day, which includes lunch and a goodie bag.
From live music in stripped-back, industrial-style surroundings through to delicious sourdough pizza, The Stable is a great Bath spot for a casual date. Grab your partner and a pew for a night of hearty dining on dishes like The Blazing Saddle pizza topped with slow-roasted pulled beef, red onion marmalade and jalapeños, as well as Kickin' Cajun tater tots, with ingredients sourced locally where possible.
On the hunt for kooky bars for date night? Juno Bar & Kitchen offers cosy, indie vibes with pool tables, vintage decor, vibrant art and classic cocktails. After sipping an espresso martini or two, we suggest getting stuck into its mouthwatering menu - the pizza and burgers with quirky names such as Florence And The Meatchine topped with barboa brisket and You're My Boy Blue smothered in BBQ sauce are delish.
Fronting decadent Georgian decor and velvet-clad seating, Circo Cellar Bar is one stunning drinking den. Choose from a slew of classic drinks such as espresso martinis or opt for signature sips - My Caramel Romance is a beaut blend of vanilla vodka, caramel, milk chocolate and a dash of salt.
While it might be better known for its cocktail deals and party-happy vibes, All Bar One is also keeping couples busy with their cocktail masterclasses. Shake, stir and sip with your other half as this High Street spot shows you how to create three classic tipples.
Square Grill House & Piano Bar is nestled in Abbey Churchyard, boasting a stunning indoor space adorned with tropical prints and stunning chandeliers alongside a heated, dog-friendly outdoor dining area with beautiful views of Bath Abbey. As it serves dishes like slow-cooked beef tortellini and crispy butterfly prawns along with beaut cocktails, the tasty plates at this city centre haunt are not to be missed. Plus, there's live music on Friday and Saturday evenings, which makes your meal extra special.
Go for a wander around the Parade Gardens, stroll through the gorgeous cobbled streets of Bath and once you're done grabbing those new profile pictures, rehydrate at the lovely Boater. This traditional pub sits right on the water and is great for local ales and simple grub like Owton's 8oz rump steak and triple-cooked chips.
In the mood for more romantic venues? Our brand-spanking new search engine makes finding your next spot easy, as you can choose between 1000s of venues across the UK. To top it off, with each booking, you'll even earn rewards to spend on events and experiences.
For unusual things for couples to do in Bath, whether you want to break the ice on a first date or try something new with your beau, CityDays' cool experience is a great shout. Using only your phones and wit, you'll scour the city to solve riddles, interact with buildings and uncover clues (with plenty of lovely views along the way).
Widely considered one of the best pubs in Bath, The Bell Inn is a cool hangout for a date with a difference. Three nights a week, the space hosts live music, and for the rest of the time, there's a choice of games to keep you busy, including table football, chess and pool.
A unique experience for couples in its own right, Opium is a secret bar, filled with cosy corners and insane artwork. With a fresco ceiling and Renaissance-style paintings, the basement spot is all sorts of impressive - and just wait 'til you get to their cocktail list. We'd recommend the Lychee Rose Petal made with fresh limes and crème de cassis.
The couple that drinks together stays together? This unique Bath experience takes place at one of the city's most renowned gin bars. The Canary, along with serving up perfect G&Ts, also runs two masterclasses; from teaching you about their distillation process through to making your own bottle.
Located on James Street West, Apex City of Bath is the ideal spot for romantic things for couples to do in the city centre. Whether you stay in the hotel or just pop in for a light bite to eat such as lime and coriander cod fillet or a tasty cocktail to sip in their stunning dining room and lounge, your beau is sure to be impressed with a visit here.
