Formerly the Metropolitan, and before that the Midland Hotel, the whole building underwent a major refurbishment in the summer of 2013 and re-opened as a brew-pub in September of that year.

The on-site micro brewery, Bath Brew House, produces two regular beers, malty Gladiator (3.9%) and the hoppier, citrussy Emperor (4.4%) and up to four additional beers. The bar also has a four-tap craft beer font serving artisan beers from both the UK and around the world.

Through the main entrance is a large L-shaped bar. The brewery vessels can be seen, behind a glass frontage, to the rear of the bar and more or less opposite the main entrance. To the rear of the main bar is a dining area with open kitchen. A very large garden and patio makes an excellent sun trap. in winter it is enclosed by a heated marquee. Upstairs is the Tank Room, where live free to air TV sports is sometimes shown, and which hosts quizzes, movie and comedy nights. This room, which has its own bar, can be hired as a function suite.

Card payments only.
