About the restaurant

From our hand painted murals to the cosy fireplace, we have left no detail unturned in making sure our guests feel at home in Colosseo.

Your dish will not only be visually stunning, but will taste authentically Italian so you get the feeling of sitting in a restaurant on the cobbled streets of Rome. Choose from an array of dishes from pizzas to pastas and the finest cuts of meat to beautifully rich and decadent desserts.

Located in the heart of Bath, we are just a short walk away from some of Bath's most iconic attractions, like the famous Roman Bath Spas and the Theatre Royal.

When you enter Colosseo, our attentive staff is waiting to ensure every moment at your table is filled with delightful flavours, laughter, and the warmth of Italian hospitality. Whether it's a special celebration, a romantic dinner, or a casual gathering with friends, Colosseo is more than just a meal – it's a journey to the essence of Italian culture.

About the restaurant

Serving delicious World Tapas for lunch and dinner, but also Bistro classics at dinner time. Extensive well priced wine selection, organic, without added sulphites, quirky wines but not only.
In the summer, probably one the best, if not the best restaurant terrace to sit on in Taunton.
Dogs are welcome.

About the restaurant

Located in the vaults of a historic building in the city of Bath, La Perla was established in 2011. We envisioned a place where our guests could make a visit to Spain without leaving Bath, bringing back memories as well as creating new ones, through a journey where the flavours hold the key.

We had the best paella I've ever tasted. And we were lucky enough to watch how it was being cooked. Delicious! Service excellent also.

About the restaurant

We want to raise awareness of the vast network of local producers and winemakers whose lives and livelihoods revolve around the treasures of the table, so we’ve thrown out our regular menu to pay homage to the culinary treasures that exist throughout Greece.
The sharing of food and conversation is a human ritual as old as time.
Meze is the ultimate expression of this passion. In the old times in Greece, the offer of numerous small selected dishes was a sign of generous hospitality. We hope you will enjoy ours…

Had a lovely visit to Opa in Bath. Food was delicious and service was friendly and welcoming. We ate in the bar area on a Friday night so it did get a little busier/louder as the night went on but we didn’t mind. Enjoyed the cocktails too! Would definitely go back!

Excellent meal. French onion soup was out of this world, if only filled us up a little bit too much for our main course
