Independent concept study — not the current official Woods Restaurant website.
British cooking with a French accent
Seasonal cooking, fine wine and personal service across five Georgian townhouses opposite the Assembly Rooms.
Woods · established 1979
Woods has never needed to become something else. This concept simply makes its character easier to discover: a warm independent restaurant, a serious kitchen and a family welcome in the heart of Bath.
FamilyThe people behind Woods
David Price and his French wife Claude opened Woods in 1979. Head Chef Stuart Ash joined in 1994; today son Gaston, daughter Gabby and son-in-law Joe remain part of the team. That continuity is the experience: professional without theatre, elegant without stiffness.
