Robun is a tribute to Japanese author Kanagaki Robun and his 1872 book Seiyō ryōritsū, which introduced Western barbecue to Japan.

Our modern-day interpretation of Yakiniku specialises in sharing plates of beautiful robata grilled dished large plates fused with elements from across Asia, paired with inspired cocktails and an extensive choice of Japanese whiskeys or sake in the most inviting and sociable of settings.

Alongside our innovative selection of sashimi, salads and small plates, our fresh sushi is served in a variety of creative incarnations including soft-shell crab futomaki roll with kimchi mayo and a tobiko-topped nigiri.

Upstairs in the Kanagaki Suite, we provide an events space and Karaoke bar set to host celebrations and events, from bespoke meetings to the ultimate party.

Robun is the place to relax, unwind and enjoy sharing plates with friends and family. It will definitely leave you wanting more.

    We had a great experience at Robyn. It was our first visit, the staff were knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The food was delicious - we tried the tasting set menu which exceeded expectations. We don’t live locally but we’ll be back next time we visit.

    We went in search of the best sushi we could find - and we found it at Robun in Bath! With the friendly and attentive service of Paige and Bea, classical ambience and simply great food - this was a great meal at a really affordable price.

    Underwhelming and rather disappointing experience which left us feeling a bit ripped off. Restaurant was very busy as expected but felt a bit chaotic at times and noise levels from other guests rose to a level that disturbed our experience. Saying that, I would commend the manager who fairly quickly addressed that situation by asking them to quieten down. The menu states that dishes will be served as they become ready indicating that this should be a positive aspect of dining here. The reality of that approach was ending up with a mish mash of things on the table that didn’t go together. Example, we ordered rice as a side to accompany the meat/seafood main dishes, but one bowl of rice turned up with starters such as gyoza and the other randomly showed up later on, by which time the first bowl had gone cold. The sushi came at the end but on the set menu it is laid out to suggest it would be served early which would be preferable. We received the octopus dish early and then lamb towards the end yet these were both presented as ‘main’ type dishes. I think some semblance of order of service is needed as it was random to the point where it delivered a pretty dissatisfying eating experience overall. Whilst the food largely tasted good, we thought it was on the whole overpriced, we had the wagyu beef entree and even though I appreciate this type of beef is relatively expensive, four 50p diameter sized thin wafer thin slices with some surrounding garnish at a price of over £10 felt like pushing it a tad. Happy to pay for quality and presentation to a point, but feel in many places Robun fell short of justifying what they charged. A few little bits of drama with smoke and glass domes didn’t add enough to make the bill feel worth it for us. We were genuinely disappointed because we love sushi and Japanese food so were excited to try this place and wish it had delivered what we were anticipating, sorry to have to honestly say it didn’t on this occasion

    Overall really enjoyed the cocktails and the food. The staff were really friendly and helpful but when we arrived there was an awful sewer smell, which lingered in the restaurant and put me off my food quite a bit. We’ve been to this restaurant numerous times and it’s always been very very nice, so I will definitely go again and hope that whatever issue they had with pipes has been rectified.

    The food was okay, good flavours, sashimi tasted fresh and good presentation. However, the service was dreadful no one asked if we wanted another drink, so we had 1 cocktail for the whole meal, no one came to check to see if the food was OK (it was not, my steak was tough) which is sad because it one of the most expensive on the menu.

    Disappointing start to an enjoyable meal. I booked several weeks in advance for 17.45 pre theatre. Restaurant had a few tables taken, we were shown to a table in the middle at the end near the service station whilst the premium tables for two remained empty. We asked to be moved and told this was not possible, I suggested that advance bookings should take precedent to walk ins. Did I want to see the manager? Yes! We were then offered a side table , we would have walked if this had not been offered . From then on the experience was lovely and the service from a young drama student was excellent.
