Captain Cook Hotel BOTANY reviews
4 Star Review by Paul Nosek
Fantastic pub, a proper local. Food is decent especially Sunday Roast. Good atmosphere, only gripe would be maybe a jukebox and turn the screens off once in a while, but that's Australia TV screens in every pub :). Overall really cool place.
5 Star Review by Suzanne O'Connor
Absolutely perfect for me! Visiting family and this Hotel was just down the street. Tom and other staff members were so helpful and polite. Our family ate dinner there on my last night, we all enjoyed it. Great Garden Bar too
1 Star Review by Mon Ryan
Food way too expensive and $10 beers! Just under $100 for Two. The local meeting place is now charging restaurant prices, and the demographics of botany would show people cant afford it. Used to be a great dine out at affordable prices. Bring back Mr Ling to the kitchen..
3 Star Review by Matty P
Food is expensive for what you get, and the $15 "special" is misleading given it doesn't include a drink you need to buy as part of it. Works out to be more like $20. Pretty much the same old cook except everything is more expensive. You get a better pubexperience nearby for the same money.

Stopped here for a midweek late lunch with my toddler daughter after a morning of long walks and chasing my daughter around Sir Joseph Banks park. We were both famished. Sat in the beer garden where we were both very comfortable. Staff lovely. Burger and ale went down a treat (for me). As new residents, well be back with the rest of the family for sure.

Great place. Genuinely. However, without fail whenever you order a buffalo chicken schnitzel all but one of the bar tenders will have heard buffalo chicken wings.
