They then proceeded, over the next 14 months, to renovate the whole property in every respect. This also included building and equipping a new kitchen which is more than three times the size of the old kitchen.

They re-opened for business on Wednesday 9th January 2008 and the restaurant has been busy ever since.

Alison Golden, with 24 years experience, is head chef.

They have a simple vision. This is a family-run restaurant; serving seasonal, carefully sourced, freshly cooked British food; at honest prices; with a relaxed atmosphere; in one of Bath's most beautiful settings.

To quote from a review of The Circus Cafe and Restaurant in March 2008 edition of Bath Life:

  "It may have only opened in January, but you already have to book in advance to make sure of a table. The Circus combines style with affordability, and offers simply presented, top quality food served by personable young staff - everything, in short, that you need from your favourite local restaurant".
