Picnic In The Park

you're on lark place, a quiet residential slip of bath that most visitors walk straight past on their way to the roman baths or pulteney bridge. that's fine. picnic in the park sits at number 16, and the people who know it tend to keep coming back, which is its own kind of signal. bath has no shortage of pretty cafes catering to tourists, so finding a place where the locals actually claim a spot as their own is worth paying attention to. specialty coffee done seriously, in a city that can sometimes prioritise aesthetics over what's actually in the cup. if you're in the ba1 postcode on a weekday morning, lark place is worth the detour.
