The Pig & Fiddle is an iconic Butcombe pub in the heart of Bath, on Saracen Street, pairing all-day food and a courtyard beer garden with a steady live-music programme. Local musicians play an eclectic mix every Friday from 8pm to 10pm, and the pub is also known for its Tuesday-night sessions with Nicole Fermie. It pours award-winning Butcombe craft beer and cask ale alongside wine and cocktails, and stays dog- and child-friendly. With a house PA, it's one of Bath's most reliable grassroots spots for catching free live music mid-week and at weekends.
