Just a 6-minute walk from our Granary Studios accommodation, The Botanist offer crispy and tasty fish and chips. Quite simply, this place is a pescatarian dream – with calamari to start followed by Fish and Chips with the peoples favourite condiment for fish – curry sauce. Don’t believe us? Luckily Pukka Pies have the data to back us up…

Pukka Pies asked 2,000 people what they prefer on their chippy orders and found that curry sauce was the nation’s 3rd favourite. Ranking just behind ketchup in 1st, and vinegar in 2nd, curry sauce comes in ahead of mayonnaise (4th) and Gravy in 5th.
