The Bay Tree Brasserie - Mid Sussex

The food was tasty but the main meal would have been nicer if it was hotter, I could have sent it back but had started eating and did not want my partner to end up watching me eat, it should have been hotter when it was first brought out. The cheesecake was very nice but there was not enough of it for the price. The service was very good.

Was a tasty meal. Friendly and helpful staff. Just maybe would have been nice to have been asked how our meal was like most restaurants do. Would definitely visit again.

Two main courses came with sauces but they were both scant. The ravioli was dried out on the top as though it had been sitting under the heater. I had asked for the aioli to be kept from the starter and this was needed for the chicken dish which also was lacking in sauce although it was tasty and the vegetables cooked how I like them. The burger was average. The desserts looked stylish but surprised that the caremelised pineapple was served cold as had expected it to be freshly cooked and therefore hot. Quite expensive for what was served. Definitely felt like a restaurant for captive overnight diners rather than a restaurant to visit.

Overpriced and poor service. After looking at the menu priced I ordered what I thought was one of the cheaper options, but after 10% had been added to the bill my Salad ended up costing over £17. Vastly overpriced for what it was. Service was very poor, despite the restaurant being fairly quiet the drink I ordered with my meal came a staggering 25 mins after I ordered it. Roughly at the time I was requesting my bill after eating my main course. If I am in this area again I will not eat at this restaurant. There are better options nearby.

Restaurant was cold. Waitress offered supplimentary heating. We were the only people in the restaurant all evening and the staff were over attentive. Zero atmosphere. Food took a little too long considering they were only doing room service and us.
