The Bay Tree Cafe in Scottish Borders

Mackays was absolutely the best fish and chips I had tasted in years. The portions were very generous, and the menu was surprisingly wide-ranging too.

The worst Wetherspoons experience. You don't expect a sensational experience at a Spoons, but I've never seen one so dirty and grotty. The staff were ignoring the tables piled with plates and glasses. We had to ask a waitress to clear our table, she cleared the plates but she never wiped it - so there was sauce, half eaten food, and salt all over the place... Had to go and find another member of staff to wipe it for us... The service was so slow and I found the members of staff rude. Every 10 mins or so, all staff disappeared (presumably for a cig break).

Great friendly place to stay for a few

Good staff, tight run ship, food is average.

Just bought a fish supper. Got it home two mins later and it’s already cold and the fish is so dry. Obviously been cooked ages ago. WAS starving - not anymore. You need to cook food fresh, folks. Sad.
