Summer at The Architect is a sensory delight. The cocktail menu bursts with colour and creativity—think passionfruit martinis, spicy margaritas, premium gins, a fabulous wine list, and expertly curated cask ales.

The summer menu is a celebration of seasonal flavours and quality ingredients, carefully sourced to bring freshness and flavour to every plate. Begin with a tempting selection of small plates, including baked camembert, king prawn cocktail, and sauteed wild mushroom, garlic and spinach toasted ciabatta with truffle oil. 

For a lighter bite, enjoy dishes such as the fillet steak sandwich or salmon and smoked haddock fishcake—perfectly prepared and packed with taste.

The Architect Bath also offers a well-thought-out children’s menu, featuring crowd-pleasers like mac and cheese, beef burgers, pizza, and halloumi fries—perfectly portioned and sure to delight younger guests.

Highlights include seared salmon with Greek feta, olives, and tomato salad, pan-fried chicken breast with gorgonzola gnocchi, smoked pancetta, and white wine sauce; and comforting classics like beer-battered fish and chips, cauliflower milanese, and the 28-day aged British sirloin steak served with pepper sauce, portobello mushrooms, and chunky fries.

End your meal with one of the delicious sweet treats, such as the rich sticky toffee pudding, indulgent triple chocolate brownie, refreshing affogato, or a scoop of Cheshire farm ice creams. Or, for a savoury finish, indulge in the three-cheese, cheeseboard, served with crackers, carrot chutney, and grapes—another showcase of the venue’s dedication to high-quality, locally inspired ingredients.
