Excellent food - loved the creamy garlic mushrooms! They gave my twin and I a complimentary glass of bubbles as it was our birthday, very thoughtful. The staff are very friendly too. Thank you x

I absolutely loved it at The Botanist. The atmosphere was wonderful, the live music great and the food was extremely tasty. The mock tails were scrummy. Will definitely be going back and I've already been recommending it to everyone I know! ���

Not a bad little cocktail bar, with top shelf decent spread or runs, whiskeys and gin. Not cheap either... Usually have live music and that's rather nice Not too busy either. Older crowd...as in over 30's. Good place to chill away from the rowdy joints along temple street.

The cocktails are very good. An excellent simple menu and good choices for those with dietary restrictions. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Such a lovely little place, the interior design is so beautiful and well thought out. The cookie dough desert was incredible. I liked the way you could pay and leave a tip of a device it made leaving quicker instead of waiting around for the bill for ages. Loved it :)

This place is nice. It's got that cosy feel where you want to hang out with your friends. The food is great, and the choice of beers is good as well. The staff were unfortunately understaffed and overworked, yet attentive but slightly absentminded, probably due to the workload. Eg, they were unaware of what is unavailable and would take the order and return to inform us of unavailability. They also forgot to bring us one dish that was ordered, which we finally cancelled. Would go back again and recommend it to all.

Visited here last week for the first time in over 2 years. Had a wonderful time, the staff were friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were perfect. My favourite part of our experience was the bar tender who made my friend a cocktail based off what spirit she liked because they didn't have the cocktail she wanted in stock. Really lovely touch! Definitely will definitely be coming back again and will recommend it!

Great place with amazing atmosphere, friendly service, and fantastic food! Had a lonely dinner experience! The place is very cosy, has a great atmosphere with all the lovely decoration. It's quite big - there are tables outside, bar area, few dining rooms inside and lavatories on the lower ground floor. We were greeted at the door and asked if we had a booking, we didn't but still managed to get a table. It was Thursday night, so it wasn't that busy. The service was very friendly and fast. The food menu has interesting dishes, a variety of vegetarian options, and their famous kebabs. I definitely recommend the chicken one. It's served either with chips, couscous, or coconut rice. I went with chips, and they were so crispy. The kebab was also delicious. There is a variety of drinks as well, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails. I really liked the alcohol-free Mind mojito.The deserts are out of this world! I had the most amazing Orea chocolate cookie dough! The prices are also reasonable. It was a great experience, and I definitely recommend this place!

Me and my mom had a lovely meal, we both had the hanging kebabs, my mom had lamb and I had chicken and chorizo both with chips. The chips had a lovely seasoning on them and the portion sizes were really good! My mom has never been before and really enjoyed it. The pink gin and poppy cocktail was delicious! The service was good too, very polite and nice and quick

Enjoyed our visit. Perhaps being there on the lead up to Christmas was the wrong decision (24/11/23) but I think keeping tables in the pub area clean & clearing glasses at 6.30pm on a Friday night couldn't be difficult - table was booked & confirmed for 7pm-8.30pm - meal came, was eaten & at 8.05pm we were given menus for dessert, the server came straight back & apologised & said her manager needed the table for 8.30 so we couldn't have a sweet! The young girl was so embarrassed and agreed to let us have a coffee as long as we were finished before 8.30 .... we spent £73 with you - I think you should have let us have our dessert or knock something off the bill. Also, a manager should be speaking to customers, not leaving it to young inexperienced members of staff.

Fish & Chips was delicious. Portion size was good. The onion petals were a bit heavy for me but it tasted good. Staff are very attentive, kind & accommodating. Great atmosphere. Overall lovely.

Lovely. Came here for a catch up with friends. The cocktails were amazing and the food was lovely. Staff were attentive without being smothering. And we didn't feel rushed to leave even though we went over our alloted time

Friday date night. Staff were welcoming and friendly our server was Rachel who was excellent. I had the salt and pepper pork skewer with coconut rice was delicious pork was tender. The burger my partner had was tasty as well. Both dishes worth the money was disappointed with my after dinner cocktail too much ice, the glass it was served in and having a big slice of kemon/lime actually in the glass it was a twist on a white Russian. The live music that was on very talented overall had a great evening. Recommend going here again.

The food was ok but nothing special. The prices are good but after our lunch we’re still hungry.

"🏢 Impressed by this amazing venue with its delightful atmosphere & highly courteous staff! 🌟 The food presentation was fabulous, although it didn't quite match its taste. 😌 Only gripe is the location of the toilet, inconveniently situated outside the seating area. Nonetheless, a pleasant dining experience overall! 👌🍽️

Had dinner with 3 colleagues - very much enjoyed the Christmas dinner kebab and there was a busy fun atmosphere despite it being a rainy monday night! Staff very helpful and friendly (only criticism was forgetting to bring us some water for the table)

Amazing bar and restaurant. Their customer service is efficient and great. Very enthusiastic and fringes staff. I had food here before but unfortunately didn’t manage to take picture as I was too hungry. However, food is amazing. I love their hanging kebabs and sweet chilli fries. The wine selection is great, and they serve my favourite white wine which is why I always choose this place. Their cocktails are also great and tasty.

A well decorated restaurant, spacious, value for money. Good quality food, a bit salty. Fish and chips was not up to expectations and the waitress had offered a discount without our request 😊 She was very helpful and take the initiation in her services. The Hot Board, burger and Berry tea were tasty. Worth another visit.

We were seated quickly, and the service was good. We enjoyed some great food and drinks. Unfortunately, they didn't have the vegan meatball kebab but had other vegetarian options.
