Privately owned by Laurence and Helen Beere, the celebrated Olive Tree Restaurant has gained a reputation as a relaxed contemporary restaurant offering excellent cuisine, fine wines, and great service. Occupying three basements whose floor levels step down, following the road's incline, the Olive Tree was recently refurbished, creating a sophisticated atmosphere whilst retaining the warmth and friendliness of the personal and attentive service offered by an experienced restaurant team. The cooking of Marc Salmon, who joined as Head Chef at the beginning of 2005, following a career as Sous Chef at both the Royal Crescent Hotel and the Priory in Bath, is a creative blend of modern British cuisine with some Mediterranean influence. Marc is passionate about the use of seasonal ingredients, sourced from local suppliers ensuring that his menus reflect the very best of the West Country. Voted "Best Restaurant in Bath 2005" the Olive Tree is one of the West Country's great culinary experiences.
