The celebrated Olive Tree Restaurant has gained a reputation in its own right for the finest modern British cuisine in a relaxed and friendly environment. Head chef Marc Salmon works closely with local suppliers to create contemporary British menus, using fresh, local and seasonal produce. Two- and three-course fixed-price menus are available at lunchtime, while evenings offer a full a la carte selection.

The Olive Tree has twice been voted Best Restaurant in Bath and holds a prestigious two-AA-rosette rating for outstanding cooking. The awards and accolades, combined with the unobtrusive service, ensure that it continues to be a favourite with many Bathonians. Close to the Assembly Rooms and the world-famous Circus, the Olive Tree is central to the heart of the city - an ideal venue for both business diners and those with more time on their hands. The restaurant also boasts an extensive wine list of over 300 handpicked wines. For those who enjoy trying something new, the list encompasses 32 wines by the glass.

During warmer months, guests are welcome to explore the secret walled gardens of the Queensberry Hotel, offering an oasis of peace and quiet in which to meet with friends, family and colleagues for an aperitif before dinner at the Olive Tree. Following a fabulous meal, the hotel’s comfortable lounges provide the perfect place to enjoy coffee or a digestif.
