The Botanist in Bath, a filming location for Channel 4's First Dates, received a three-out-of-five food hygiene rating after an inspection revealed mould, raw food spillages, and expired items. The inspection noted that juices from uncooked food had spilled into a fridge, leading to significant mould growth. Eight burrata cheeses were found to be past their use-by dates. Despite being rated 'generally satisfactory' in two categories, the venue's hygiene issues raised concerns. The Botanist did not respond to requests for comment regarding the inspection findings.
"A Food Standards Agency official found mould and raw food spillages in the venue's kitchen. The inspection write-up said juices from uncooked food had spilled into a fridge and become 'very mouldy'."
"The raw food service fridge had spillages that were very mouldy - ensure you have a structured approach to cleaning. The walls in the chiller were particularly mouldy."
"The inspection also found eight burrata cheeses had passed their use-by dates. The Botanist Bath was rated 'generally satisfactory' in two of the three categories examined."
