Located in the heart of Birmingham, The Botanist (Gas Street Basin) is a short walk from New Street Station, Broad Street or Symphony Hall. This extensive venue is split across two floors, each with its own bar and dining areas, and boasts one of the best beer gardens in the city centre (as voted in 2019).

With multiple private dining rooms throughout, this is the perfect setting for any special occasion and unforgettable parties. The deliciously casual menu is designed with you in mind, so you can feel like you’re eating your favourite home-cooked meal just without the fuss. They host several events throughout the year and live music every weekend. The whole venue is also completely dog-friendly - there's literally no better reason to visit.

In the summertime, you can enjoy a beer in the sun with extraordinary canal side views, but not to worry... from October to March* their Pergola will be open for all, a stunning winter terrace, so you can enjoy dinner with a view all year round.


Our cosy winter destination of food, drink, live music and picturesque views. Join us as we serve up limited edition winter cocktails and house-cooked classic dishes, amongst fires, fairy lights and après ski décor.

    This was a great location for a team lunch. The menu was pretty limited if you wanted the lunch option, but the lunch size kebabs were actually pretty spot o n for about £9.50 including fries. I think with a soft drink and the automatically applied tip, we ended up paying less than £14.50 per person. I had the pork, and it was surprisingly flavourful. I'd order it again. I can't comment on the breadth of the menu. But it was definitely worth the trip. The service was good. The decor was nice. Good scheme all round.

    Such a lovely place! We had a lovely time here 2 days in a row. The night before our wedding we had a meal and drinks which were delicious and the atmosphere is just so unique and relaxing. It's a beautiful place and so cosy. We loved all the plants and the rustic design of this gem next to the waterways in Birmingham The staff were lovely. As we went there after getting married too with our family they gave us their cookie dough mixer as a congratulatory gesture. 🥰 I highly recommend this place. 👍👍👍

    It was nice meeting with colleagues. We only had drinks so I can't say anything about the food. The service at the bar was fast but we where there at like 6pm so not busy yet. The location looks very good and it worth some pictures.
