Bath food scene expands with new bakeries and gourmet burgers

The culinary landscape in Bath, England, is experiencing significant growth in both its bakery and burger sectors. Historically known for traditional items like the 17th-century Sally Lunn buns and Regency-era Bath buns, the city has seen a recent influx of modern establishments.

In the bakery sector, Landrace Bakery on Walcot Street has emerged as a prominent destination, noted for its sourdough made with specialty grains and popular cardamom and cinnamon buns.

Simultaneously, the burger scene is expanding beyond traditional fast-food chains. New high-end options include Bath Chophouse on Northumberland Place, which offers charcoal-grilled steakhouse burgers, contributing to a burgeoning local food culture that caters to both tourists and a large student population.
