The constantly changing menu is a celebration of seasonality, featuring ingredients sourced locally with a focus on sustainability. The Elder’s commitment to using wild, sustainable ingredients remains at the core of their ethos. Mike Robinson is incredibly passionate about the subject and owns an ethical venison company called Deer Box, which provides the restaurant with wild venison from estates within an hour of Bath. Fish is sourced from Cornwall’s Flying Fish, where only sustainable stocks are used and the selection changes daily. Dairy, farmed meats, and vegetables come from carefully chosen British growers, with a focus on organic options.

The Elder originally opened within the Grade 1 listed Georgian building in September 2020 and was previously situated on the ground floor. This summer, it moved upstairs to its new location and a second restaurant ‘Brasserie Beau’ with 100 covers, opened in May 2024 on the ground floor. Brasserie Beau is open seven days a week from 12pm to 9:30pm.

Mike Robinson, owner of The Elder said “We are delighted to bring this amazing dining experience to the lovely city of Bath. The set menu takes the guest on a wild food journey, with incredibly delicious, carefully curated dishes that change with the seasons. Wild sustainable British ingredients are at the core of every dish, and include amazing seasonal wild meat, fish and non-meat options. For those who don’t eat meat a thoughtful and truly delicious option is available on every course."
