Camelia Botnar Bistro - Horsham

Have been here many times for lovely light lunches with a pretty salad. However that has now all gone. Lunches are awful and badly cooked and served with. CRISPS. Tuna melt lunch was horrid. Will not eat here again. Why change something that was so nice.?

Absolutely the best cooked breakfast I have ever had! The bacon, egg, sausage, toast, baked beans, hash browns and toast were cooked to perfection

We always gave good food at Camelia Botnar, This particular day we had breakfast, came out hot, nice presentation, lovely staff Staff in both cafe and the rest of the place are always helpful and polite

The philosophy behind Camilia Botna is commendable. They endeavour to help young people to learn a trade whilst they help in the garden centre. The centre itself is very good with top quality plants and lots of accessories like pots, garden ornaments, etc. and the staff are very helpful and friendly. I didn't find the café very good, however, but my wife likes this restaurant and tells me that the cake selection is very good. I'm afraid I can't comment on this since I seldom if ever eat cake. She also likes the fact that they do coffee in cafeters which I am also not keen on. I was very disappointed with the choice of food which was scant to say the least. If you go, go for the plants not the food.

Visited coffee shop yesterday. coffee was nice, cakes were OK considering the current situation. Had to queue and wait for coffee and cakes to be put on tray. This took about 10 minutes due to one customer in front of us getting cream teas. Major concern was Track and Trace form. The Government guidelines say ONLY collect a contact phone number for each customer or visitor, or for the lead member of a group of people and date of visit, arrival time and, where possible, departure time . However the Camilla Botnar form that you are asked to complete wants address, post code, telephone number, email number, date of visit and time. It says the info will not be shared and will be destroyed in 21 days. However, this information gathering form did seem over the top and we will not return if this is the system that Botnar have adopted. Perhaps we only needed to put name and telephone number, date and time, but this was not made clear.
