About The Grapes

The Grapes is a grassroots music venue in 14 Westgate St, Bath. PA system and vocal mics are provided; bring your own instruments and amps.

The Grapes books Jazz, Blues, Folk, Acoustic acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Bath venue directory.

The ‌‌‍Grapes occupies one of Bath's few surviving Elizabethan townhouses at 14 Westgate Street (BA1 1EQ) — an inn since at least 1694 and trading as The Grapes since 1792. It is a refreshingly traditional freehouse with no TVs, no sports screens and no gaming machines, just live music most evenings: a weekly Wednesday jazz session, midweek blues and trad-folk sessions, vinyl DJs on Saturdays and live acts on lazy Sunday afternoons. The bar runs an eclectic, locally focused range of craft beers, ciders, ales, locally distilled gin and vodka and even wine on tap. A genuine grassroots room in the heart of the old city for jazz, blues, folk and acoustic performers, taking originals and covers.
