New Italian restaurant opens on Quiet Street in centre of Bath

Bath city centre has a new Italian restaurant.

PrimaVista on Quiet Street in Bath

PrimaVista has opened on Quiet Street in premises that until January were occupied by Bardacious.

PrimaVista already has a branch in Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, billed as a “modern trattoria”, which opened last summer.

Bardacious was only open for a year and a half following a £2 million refurbishment of the former Royal Bank of Scotland.

Serving Californian and Mexican-inspired cuisine, the owners had hopes of making Bardacious an international brand.

But announcing the closure, they said the financial reality of running an independent restaurant had become “unsustainable”.
