The Botanist York in York

Fantastic. Great food, great service and a very warm ambient atmosphere! Spotless toilets with awesome soap from the Scottish soap company. Will be back and try the hanging kebabs! Price wise great!

Stumbled across this place on a mini stay-cation to York. Dog friendly, amazing vegan options, very informative staff clued up on all the food we enquired about. Cosy place. Food absolutely delicious☆☆☆☆☆

Went for my 40th Birthday, I'm not super keen on the botanist brand but having worked in hospitality I know a good restaurant and this is a good restaurant, the reason for this is the staff, everyone was friendly and welcoming, especially our waitress whose name I didn't get but was from Newcastle (despite my wife not recognising the accent!) She was excellent throughout, very helpful, attentive and great product knowledge. I hope this girl is well looked after as I know that finding staff this good is super tough in the current climate. Food was very tasty and we even got a free dessert as it was my 40th which was a nice touch

Best bottomless brunch in York! Came here for my friends hen party last week and was amazed by the selection of food on the bottomless brunch menu. It’s very different to other places where you can build your board. Absolutely delicious overall. Drinks come full to the brim which are soon replaced with new ones thanks to the great service. I’d like to mention Mike here, he served us and was outstanding, always made sure we had drinks and you were never waiting ages for a top up or to try & grab someone’s attention. Overall, as a group of 9, we were very impressed with our visit and my friend (the bride) was happy with the chosen brunch which she didn’t know she was going to! Thank you for a great visit, we will be back soon!

Food was really good. We had the salt and pepper wings and garlic bread for starters. They tasted amazing would definitely recommend and our mains equally as good we had fish and chips and the crispy chicken burger. Our waiter was Mike and his service was incredible Couldn’t fault him. Very friendly, attentive and helpful. Also the cocktails were so good. Overall our experience was lovely!! Would recommend 😁

Lovely restaurant with a very interesting menu! We shared the melted cheese bread boule as it was so big, and glad we did as it was delicious and enough for 2. We've decided to go back, again, on our short visit to York as we liked it so much.Our server, Olivia, was a super star: fast, efficient, knowledgeable and a great laugh, a real breath of fresh air. Prices were great and all'in-all a wonderful experience.

Went for a hen-do with 11 of us and got the private greenhouse style room which was beautifully decorated. Staff were attentive, food was delicious and had good-sized portions and drinks were tasty

Highly recommend a visit to The Botonist. The food and drink were fantastic. The Hanging Kebab is a must. Our waitress Chloe was amazing. She looked after us, made some fabulous recommendations for both food and drinks that were spot on. Thank you

We celebrated a birthday on a Friday evening and it's the perfect venue. Great options on the menu, gorgeous cocktails and it's clearly a popular venue. There was security on the door on busy evenings, I would recommend to book in advance. The bar area is dog friendly but very busy on a Friday and Saturday evening. We had the most friendly and attentive waiter, didn't catch his name but he was American. He really looked after us and nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend the platters.

Lovely wee place. Small and cosy with an interesting menu and tasty food. We enjoyed everything especially the fried onion quarters. Staff friendly and quick. Also great cocktail /gin menu. We went to celebrate the first night of a sisters' getaway weekend and it was perfect.
