Sally Lunn's Historic Eating House & Museum

A historic eating house in the old town of Bath, famous for the Sally Lunn bun, which legend says dates back to 1680.

Claimed by the owners to be the oldest house in Bath, this historic venue is famous for the Sally Lunn bun. Legend has it that the bun was brought to Bath in 1680 by Solange Luyon, a Huguenot refugee. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus are all designed around this famous bun, which is served with various sweet or savory toppings. A historic kitchen museum is located in the cellar, open from 11:00 to 16:00. The Jane Austen Afternoon Tea is served only at 15:30 and can be booked in advance. Two-course dinners start from £19.95. Located in North Parade Passage in the heart of Bath, it is easily accessible on foot.
