Tried the Botany Bay for the first time.

We had baked brie, white bait and mushrooms for starters and burger and chips for main. Presentation of all the food was good, colourful and appealing to the eye. Service from the staff faultless. The only thing that got annoying was the ding dong of door bells. Not sure what it was all about, but it's quite loud.

Baked Brie - There was no crackers/bread with the baked brie and chutney. it's hot and runny, so having something to scoop it onto other than a lettuce leaf or piece of apricot from the chutney would have been nice. Needs toast/cracker/roll

White bait - literally no flesh, just literally skin and bones. I've literally given bigger fish treats to my cat from a packet that were fleshly and bigger! As well as putting fatter sand eels as live bait when fishing! Tiny portion for the price, quite disappointing out of all of the starters.

Mushrooms - Were OK but nothing to write home about.

For mains, we all choose beef burger and chips If you like salty food this is for you!

Pre salted skinny, skins on fries which were warm and hard getting crunchier as they cooled. Beef pattie nice, firm not mushy, again salty. 3 tiny cocktail gerkins, bacon (not mentioned on the description) added to the salty taste as did the cheese. Coleslaw and salsa.. salsa was sweet not smoky to the taste, and the apple and celeriac slaw, not even a fork fill to get a taste.

Would rather have the choice to add salt than have it added for us. Good job one of us tasted the food first.

Chef/kitchen staff came out and was very grumpy to the bar staff. Not really the place to be grumpy front house. At least take them to one side and have a quiet word. Was surprised to see kitchen staff front of house.

We didn't complain about the salt as it looked and sounded like the kitchen staff was already having a tough day without us adding to it!

The 3 of us will try it again, as the Sunday Roast was recommended.
