City holds its first-ever charity waiter's race
Waiters in Bath have been taking part in a Parisian tradition, racing against each other while trying to keep a tray steady.
People working across the city's restaurants and cafes took turns carrying a tray with the traditional Sally Lunn buns from Bath and glasses of water across the famous Royal Crescent.
Allison Herbert, CEO of organiser Bath Business Improvement District (BID) said the event on Monday raised funds for Hospitality Action - "a really good charity for people in the sector".
Baker Richard Bertinet said it was a bit of "fun" on a sunny day that made Bath look "just as beautiful" as the south of France.
"It's amazing isn't it," he said. "I've got my sunglasses on. Bath looks so beautiful today. It's fun, we're having fun."
"They're racing but [also] waiting so they're not allowed to run otherwise they'll spill the drinks," Ms Herbert said .
"They had two champagne flutes and a whisky glass on their tray with a Sally Lunn Bun - It's got to be about Bath.
"Everybody's raising funds for Hospitality Action, which is a really good charity for people in the hospitality sector who have found themselves in really difficult situations."
Once points were deducted for spillages, the 2025 champions were crowned.
The winning team of waiters from The Pump Room jokingly said their secret to doing the race well was to drink Bath Spa water "every day".
