The Botanist Bar & Restaurant Coventry

A very unique place. The skylight is a feature which will amaze any person who will enter the premises. Friendly staff and good drinks with a lot to offer. We did not eat there this time but will certainly try something in the future. Decor is very unique, hence the name. Plenty of plants dotted around and a water feature!

We came during an off peak period so the restaurant was understaffed, I guess they couldn’t predict the turnout for the Euro games. Taken in context, the service was really good. With the menu they cover most diets, so you would hardly have nothing to eat. I got their hanging chicken kebab which was really good, meat had a hint of a much better Nando’s peri-peri flavour. The lighting inside the restaurant was adequate, with warm coloured lights and wood to avoid the cold feeling aesthetics. There are ample spots either good lighting to take photos if you are of those types. As for accessibility, there is elevator access to the restaurant and staff approach you by the door to help if you need any. From my experience there seems to no online ordering and payment system implemented at the restaurant like the types you would see at Wetherspoons. Overall I had a great time at the restaurant.

A lovely charming place with great atmosphere. I had dinner here on Friday night, lots of good vegan options and service was amazing. It's really beautiful inside and they have seating on 2 levels. Live music was playing Friday evening and the band took music requests. Will certainly be back for more, when I'm back in Coventry.

It feels magical inside! Awesome atmosphere & the drinks are lovely. I only had dessert here which was amazing. Very busy at the bar so I found it a good idea to get two drinks at a time friendly & helpful staff & there was live music the night I went in & they sounded fantastic. Definitely recommended & will go back again

A great place to visit with friends. We went with some good friends of ours and were seated in the upstairs seating area. The great open space was amazing with glass roof above us seeing out across the coventry skyline. The decor is traditional to the botanist brand with plants and artificial plants all around. There are a couple of stream like water features as you walk around too. Each friday and saturday they have live music and band equipment in one of the seating areas. The quality of the food was great, my favourite was the hanging kebab, I upgraded my fries to the buffalo loaded fries, and again really nice, (just maybe a bit too much hot sauce left in the bottom of the bowl when finished). I would recomend the Camenbert starter to share, absolutely amaizing with the camenbert baked in the bread. You also get extra bread to dunk. They offer a wide range of drinks including IPA's and a full cocktail list. The service was OK, but difficult to get the attention of a waiter/waitress for the bill. We also had a meal brought out wrong, it was brought back out freshly made correctly whilst we were still eating our mains (withing around 7-8 minutes) all in all A great evening with friends.

It looked really nice here. Beautiful atmosphere. The meals we had were good. Service was a bit sloppy though (maybe they need more staff). I will visit again and I recommend.

Was here last night for a works team meal. We had been to one of the sister restaurants in Birmingham so we're hoping for more of the same. We were not disappointed. The location is fantastic being so central, and the decor is so relaxing and unusual. Food was great, the team mainly enjoying the great hanging kebabs that they do. Not too expensive and enjoyed by all.

Lovely venue, with live music. Food was pretty good, although not frills. Kebabs were good, sides quite basic. The bar service was very slow, which was an issue when sat upstairs. Would definitely go again however.
