    Been recommend this place a few times, so I was glad to finally give it a try. You can't beat some live music, and the band they had were really quite decent. Quite loud for having chat over the dinner table, but that's on us for sitting to close. The service was great, and the waitresses were very friendly and attentive. Now the food..... I got the giant piri piri kebab. The name lived up to the mammoth portion size. As I write this the next morning, I still feel full. The burgers looked fantastic, I also tried a bit of the katsu curry, which was phenomenal. The reason for 4 stars is that it isn't great value for money and was on the pricey side for what you are getting. Apart from that the restaurant is beautiful. The atmosphere is great. And the food was lovely. Would highly recommend.

    Went to lunch for mums birthday yesterday, it was our first experience in botanist. Food was hot and delicious. Price was bang on. Jemma was brilliant had a brownie on her with a candle for mum it was a great touch. Definitely one of my favourite on the list for a get together. Ambience and deco was spot on.

    Stopped for drinks at this very spacious yet cost feeling bar and restaurant. Low lighting and lots of foliage create a really lovely atmosphere and the drinks were very good. The staff were friendly and cocktails came very quickly. The glasses were a little too heavy on the ice and light on actual booze to warrant 5 stars but overall this is a nice place to drink with plenty of comfort seating and good service.
