I'm a new regular at Demuths and every time i go find it to be an absolute delight!! The staff are always warm and welcoming and nothing is ever too much trouble and the food is generously portioned and obviously freshly prepared! The menu is inventive and seasonal and delicious too of course!!! The restaurant is charming and very cosy.. perfect for a candlelit romantic dinner for two!!!! It's not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.. and there is a special mon to weds two courses for £16.95 which is pretty reasonable..all in all ..great!!

Excited to find a quaint vegetarian restaurant in the heart of Bath, what a birthday treat! Food was amazing and well worth the money, even my meat eating fiancé enjoyed it as much as i did! Atmosphere was good, the staff were pleasent but struggled to crack a smile, they need to cheer up! We will definitely return. Try it and you'll love it.

Pretty little restaurant with tasty food but a quite limited choice of dishes and tiny, very expensive portions. I guess, they expect that you take a full course dinner to be sated. The food is good but not what I expected for this high price. One reason for this might be, as I understood, that they are changing the dishes from time to time, maybe the food is usually better. So, if you are prepared to spend something like £50 on a dinner, go to Demuths. I think you can have definitely better and cheaper vegi-food in Bath than this.

I totally agree with Larau from Birmingham. Since this place was taken over it really has got much better. I can't afford to eat there every week, but I try to eat there every time I'm in Bath.

Got taken for Sunday lunch there as part of a romantic weekend! Read the reviews here and didn't think it was worth going but then had a look and gave it a try. The food was gorgeous, loads of vegan and healthy choices, organic beer, friendly service, you get what you pay for! It wasn't cheap, it was good value for great food (2 courses each, 1 beer each, £30 inc. tip). Would definitely go again. Someone did tell us that 6 months ago it changed hands so maybe that's why our experience was so good compared to others. The tables were a bit close to each other but it was beautifully decorated.

APPALLING. Made a reservation for lunch but when we turned up there were no spare tables. Were kept waiting standing in entrance for 15 mins amongst jam-packed tables. As a diner I wouldn't like to be packed-in like that with other people standing right next to me waiting. Eventually told our reserved table wouldn't be available... This place should close. (Much better to go to "The Wife of Bath" around the corner, perfect.)

For my Mum's birthday we were hoping to book 5 of us into Demuths for a lovely meal. However, it turns out that you cannot book a table for more than 4 people on a Friday or Saturday evening. They wouldn't even consider a booking for two tables if we split our party. The staff were extremely unhelpful & dismissive. They were more content to chatter amongst themselves than try to help me out with suggestions or what not. It was so awful that I never intend to go there. I don't care that it has excellent food reviews - the attitude of the staff was so depressing. Can I suggest the excellent & helpful 'Walrus & Carpenter' around the corner in Barton Street. Vegetarian with many vegan dishes, very cute & lovely staff. We turned up at 7pm on a Friday & they had no problem seating 5 of us immediately even though they swiftly filled up after we arrived.

I've been to this restaurant on several occasions and always thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It does get busy, but saying that I've never booked - just always turned up and hoped for the best and have always got a table. Admittedly it's not the cheapest restaurant, but you do get a nice big portion of food. The menu seems to change regularly, and the food is delicious!  (Especially the vegan chocolate fudge cake.) The vegan milk shakes and cooked breakfast are pretty good as well! Overall I'd really enjoyed going there, and anytime I'm in Bath I make the effort to go back.

We went to Bath to celebrate our anniversary and, being a vegetarian, I thought I could not give up the chance of trying Bath's only vegetarian restaurant.  I requested a nice table which they gave us, right next to the front window.  The restaurant was fully booked and lots of people were dropping in on the off chance, so it's obviously very popular. The atmosphere was nice, not stuffy but also not too busy or hectic.  The food was lovely - we started with the bondas and the brochettes, both of which were lovely and not too filling. For main courses we had the Ethiopian Stew and the Tofu stir fry - both of these were large portions and really tasty.  The stew came with lots of small portions of rice, bread, salads etc - a real selection. And the stir fry was great (if anything - too big!). After such a lovely meal I just had to sample one of their desserts (even thouch I was pretty full by then!). Unfortunately they were sold out of 3 of the deserts so I opted for the dark chocolate cheesecake (to share of course!). The whole meal came to £75 which included a bottle of wine and coffees which I think is a fair price for good quality food of good portion sizes. The service was good although our starter took some time to arrive - however the waitress did come and apologise so we can't complain. All in all, I would recommend Demuths for a great vegetarian meal with a nice relaxed atmosphere. But my warning is, book early!
