Just metres from The Theatre Royal Bath, Raphael is one of Bath’s longest-running restaurants; an institution in Bath’s food and wine scene since the 80’s. While you’ll still find that cosy informal vibe, and an obvious love for wine, our menus are continually evolving to bring you the best of modern British food, complete with some unexpected contemporary touches.
Brasserie/bistro with dark wooden floors and soft lighting, serving modern takes on French classics.

We’ll return, for sure.
Service was wonderful, super friendly waitresses. We never had to ask for any drinks either, they would ask before we could.
Highly recommend to anyone fancying some Michelin star standard food. If they don’t have a star, they should!
Raphael’s is certainly one of the best restaurnants I have been to in Bath. The atmosphere is homey, surrounded by their impressive stock of wine bottles. Service was excellent throughout.
To start I had the French Onion Soup. It was unique in that it wasn’t brown/ sticky with pieces of well cooked onion (traditional French onion soup) but more of a white emulsion of onion. This ended up making the dish refreshingly light. Perfect for a starter. I do take issue with the limited amount of stuffed cheese “breadballs?”. This was meant to be the source of the cheese flavour, but because there was little of it, the dish lacked the saltiness it needs during some slurps.
Duck three ways for main course. It was first class. Duck hash brown, duck croquette and duck breast. My favourite part was the duck breast with the parsnip purée. The sweetness of the Millard combined with the earthiness of the parsnips tasted magical. The gravy was rich and complimented the flesh with its herbs and salt profile.
Ordered a side of mash, which was beautifully whipped and tasted perfect.
The only other circumstance is that despite it being a wine bar, I would have expected more than one cider choice.
The wine list was comprehensive and had choices to suit all budgets.
The staff were charming and attentive.
We would definitely recommend and will be visiting again.
