The Cosy Club

Yesterday afternoon I met my cousin Charlotte at The Cosy Club in Bath for a well due catch up. She is in her final year in Oxford which means we don't see much of each other during term time.

The Cosy Club is a chain but their Bath location is a relatively new addition. The Club is located in Bath's new development Southgate and its entrance is hidden amongst the shops, barely noticable unless you are looking for it. The door leads you up a flight of stairs to a large open plan dining and bar area with a terrace overlooking the shops.

The feel is art deco with comfy lounge seating that surrounds an impressive bar. Several chandeliers hang from the ceiling adding to the atmosphere of laid back elegance.

As it was such a beautiful Spring day we opted for a table on the balcony which is surrounded with Roman columns (very fitting for Bath). If you feel a bit chilly you can also nab one of the tartan rugs on offer for outside patrons- you have to return them at the end though!

The restaurant offers an interesting array of food, from burgers to tapas, and from what we could see of other tables tucking in, it looked tasty!

We weren't looking to eat but chose a non-alcoholic drink off their equally long drinks menu. I went for a bluberry, apple and lime smoothie, whilst Charlotte went for a mango number.

The place was absolutely packed with people eating, drinking and generally enjoying the weekend sun. The Club is perfect for any occasion, from a late brunch with friends, to a meal with the family or just some evening drinks.
