Looking to host an event in Bath? Mantra is a progressive Indian restaurant offering a colourful and adaptable setting for private events and group celebrations. With its combination of flexible spaces, bold design and sharing-style menus, it provides a lively backdrop for everything from birthday parties and engagement celebrations to corporate gatherings and drinks receptions.
When it comes to hosting an event at Mantra, you’ll find several versatile options. The restaurant can be hired exclusively, accommodating up to 69 guests seated or 110 standing, making it suitable for larger celebrations or company events. For more intimate occasions, there is a dedicated party room which seats up to 25 guests for a sit-down meal or 40 standing. This room has a lighter, more pared-back feel than the main dining space, with floor-to-ceiling windows, wooden floors and chandelier lighting, creating an elegant setting that works well for both daytime and evening events.
When it comes to the food, venue hire bookings are supported by set lunch and dinner menus designed for easy sharing and generous group dining. Dishes include starters like poppadoms and dips, onion bhajis and chicken tikka dosa, mains such as aromatic lamb rogan josh and hot chilli chicken served alongside sides including spiced potatoes, naan and pilau rice. Deserts feature Indian classics like pistachio kulfi or carrot halwa. Set sharing menus allows hosts to keep events relaxed and sociable, whether guests are seated or mingling with drinks.
The main restaurant has a striking and immersive interior, with leather booth seating, Indian-inspired patterns and a large mural of Ganesh providing a dramatic focal point. An outdoor terrace adds further flexibility, offering a partially covered space with elevated views across the city, particularly appealing for warmer months and indoor-outdoor events.
