The Botanist Worcester

Greeted by Nico who's sense of humour had us laughing from the offset. Welcomed by daughter as we didn't know if kids were allowed, but they sure are, nice wee menu to choose from too, even if she did go for the Dirty Chicken Burger. Venue is lovely, welcoming and warm. Bruna took over, taking our orders throughout the night, whilst Nico brought food out to us, again his banter was impressive. Food! Wow tastes amazing, well cooked and presented too. Desserts were flavoursome too! Overall an excellent meal and worth every penny, an optional 10% service see is add it to your bill but you are asked if you would like to keep this on before payment. Of course! was a reply Well done to everyone, let's not forget the kitchen staff too.

The Botanist Worcester was the chosen location for our wedding afternoon lunch yesterday as we had a small ceremony in Worcester Town and wanted to celebrate with our family and friends over lunch. We chose the Botanist as when we scouted all over Worcester for the best looking venue with the best menu choice for a large party, The Botanist was a clear choice and we have to say, it was definitely the right choice as everything was perfect yesterday! It is a stunning venue with a plant and dark wood themed interior with a massive decorative bar and bar seating and even more plants and beautiful seating outside as well where you can overlook Cathedral square and have a direct view of Worcester cathedral. My now husband likes plants (we have a house full of them) 😅 so that was a massive plus and one of the reasons we chose the venue, it’s just so photogenic and visually pleasing which was very pleasing to our photographer as well who was able to get so many amazing shots. All our guests complimented the food saying the flavours were perfect and presentation was excellent. The delivery of our pre-ordered food was very fast from when we arrived and many guests complimented the speed of the food arrival. I cannot end this review without saying a massive thank you to the staff. Everyone was so kind and understanding yesterday and we really felt like you were there for us ready to take action. I have worked in hospitality before for many years and know when the staff are well trained and good at the job and that’s an understatement for the Staff here, they really are so kind and helpful. Libby at the central management team was there from the start to answer all of our questions and help arrange everything which there was a lot of but despite that, they were very understanding of all of our requests and responded to our needs and queries quickly. John the manager at the venue was also very helpful the last few days before our big day helping us arrange the seating plan and checking when our Friend would arrive with the cake, etc, and on the day was there to ensure everything went to plan. To all of the other staff as well, thank you for putting up with us (my mad family 😂) And your hospitality and customer service was fantastic. If you are looking for a visually pleasing, cosy food venue with amazing food and top Of the range service, this is the place ! Thank you all.

Had a great lunch there with a friend today, had a selection of the starters and a side for a bit of a mix. All of it was amazing and very well presented, and great quality. The service was great, The lady I have had serve me before, she is really good and the guy is super friendly, guessing he was the manager/team leader today. He was a laugh as well.
