Bird in Hand - Menu

Nice to see the place has had a facelift. Menu disappointing, doesn’t have so many dishes as with the previous owners. The food we had was good, perhaps more choices will appear in time.

After its recent renovation the acoustics are terrible. You can barely hear the person at next to you at the tables. New (young) staff have a lot to learn about providing a professional table service.

We have visited twice since the refurb and are very impressed. Both times we went there were 4 of us and we all had different meals. We all enjoyed the food. The staff have been most helpful and really pleasant. We will be back again soon. View menu

Walking from Bristol to Bath and we came across this pub when we were fancying a drink. A friendly welcome, good real ale and cider. Got the munchies and ordered a baguette and a side of chips and salad..... Delicious. Thanks for your warm and welcoming hospitality.

Have been before a year ago and the food has been mediocre but last weekend the new birds nest at the bottom of the car park is perfect for some evening sun with a beer. Lots of bike lock up space. Just would be nice for some of the seats to have backs/something to lean on.

Had a cracking Sunday lunch here yesterday! I believe it's been taken over what an improvement in the food etc since we were last here visiting relatives a few years ago. 11/10 for value for money I'll definitely be returning asap! Was a well cooked tasty meal ... well done!! View menu

Our ‘new’ Bird is super! The new interior is very inviting as were the very friendly but professional staff. Our meal was very good; a good few notches up from pub grub without being too fussy for our local. Theres a good balance on the menu for all tastes I would say at a fair price.

After completing a half marathon along the railway path, we found ourselves at this pub. The menu was quite adventurous, featuring dishes such as potted smoked mackerel and excellent whitebait. We also enjoyed their substantial chips. Our midweek lunch here was delightful, served by a team of young, amiable, and efficient staff. Kudos to BIH for earning a 5/5 from us. During a spontaneous stop on our walk from Bristol to Bath, we were warmly welcomed by the bar team. Overall, it was a great discovery and definitely a place we’d consider revisiting.

Good to see that following the refurbishment that this still is a pub that caters for drinkers but also provides very good food in the conservatory with tables for dining in the main part of the building. Starters were beef croquettes, feta and filo and calamari. I was worried that the calamari might have been frozen rings but it was a large piece of breaded squid with a sauce and side salad. Could have done with a crispy coating but nonetheless was very good. Mains were smoked haddock fillet with a crispy breadcrumbed poached egg, lambs liver and a flat iron steak. All the meals were excellent. There still is a good variety of beers, lagers and cider could do with a dry cider. Staff were fr... View menu
