Quick Verdict

You want a proper steak dinner with reliable service and don't want to spend £80 on pretence.
About Hudson Steakhouse
Hudson Steakhouse sits on London Street in Bath's Walcot area, a casual but polished steakhouse that doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. The space works because it's got fireplace warmth without the stuffiness — reviewers consistently mention "not pretentious" alongside "great atmosphere". The menu is straightforward: flat iron and other cuts cooked properly, sides that are genuinely generous (one reviewer warned they're "more than one serving"), and a sticky toffee pudding that's earned multiple exclamation marks. Service is the thing that keeps people coming back — staff are quick, friendly, and attentive without hovering. The wine list and cocktail selection are solid enough that solo diners and groups both feel looked after. It's the kind of place locals recommend to visitors, and visitors come back to when they're in Bath again.
What Stands Out
Steak that doesn't disappoint
"Best steaks in bath, friendly staff - food never fails to disappoint!" and multiple reviewers specifically praising the flat iron steak and how it's cooked, with one calling it "succulent and perfectly cooked".
Sides and desserts that matter
"The quality of all sides is superb. The Desserts were amazing too!" and the sticky toffee pudding earned "omg it was to die for" and nearly prompted a second helping. Fries are described as "super crispy right to the last one".
Service that remembers you're there
One reviewer noted a server "kept us topped up and well informed" and "ran the upstairs of the restaurant single handedly all with a smile on her face." Multiple reviews mention quick, friendly service and the atmosphere being welcoming without being intrusive.
What Customers Say
Returned recently and food and service still as good as ever.
Absolutely amazing food, drink and service we'll worth every penny..
Had such a lovely experience here, the atmosphere is great, had a delicious steak and fries and that béarnaise sauce in a wonton was a classy touch.
