Sally Lunn's Historic Eating House & Museum is one of the oldest houses in Bath, United Kingdom, dating back to 1482. It is famously known for the Sally Lunn bun, which is a large brioche-like bread that forms part of Bath's culinary heritage. The establishment operates as a tea house and a museum showcasing the history of the building and the story of Sally Lunn, a French refugee who came to Bath around 1680 and started to bake the now-famous buns. The eating house is situated in a prime location within easy walking distance of Bath’s main attractions, including the Roman Baths and Bath Abbey. Visitors can enjoy meals throughout the day and experience a taste of historical England with both savory and sweet menu options featuring the Sally Lunn bun. The museum displays are located in the original kitchen Sally Lunn used, which is in the cellar of the building. There, you can see the Georgian kitchens and get a sense of how the buns were popularised in Bath and beyond.
