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.

December 2024High praises to the gorgeous young lady (I didn’t get her name, but I think she was the manager) 😊 This is what happened: Group booking, festive menu, only one vegan main, which I couldn’t eat due to ingredients which are not compatible with my food intolerances… But! I was truly impressed by the patience and kindness of the manager! I tried to email the venue starting eight days before to avoid any food drama at the table in front of everybody, but the response was extremely poor to non-existent. Talking to them on the phone was impossible, as the automated service only makes you choose between making a booking or cancelling one - no chance to speak to a human being - and that’s why I then tried with the emails. Six emails later, nothing was resolved - and no one at the venue knew anything about my dietary requirements, which I tried to advise of starting on Dec 5th (dinner was yesterday on Dec 12th). The only half reply I got out of those emails was from another manager who couldn’t even spell his name correctly (apparently his name is Vlad but he signed himself as Vald at the end of his unhelpful email)… She was brilliant though, she sorted me out eventually and with a smile on her face - without making me feel uncomfortable - which was extremely appreciated! 🥰 I don’t know her name, but I would like to express my sincere gratitude to her and to the chefs as, against all odds, I actually managed to have an amazing dinner!!! 😍

October 2024Stunning view. I just grab a beer with friends. Will come back to try their food. Friendly staff and amazing atmosphere. The price is expensive, around £4 for half pint beer but worth it. Highly suggest you to sit outdoor if weather is good.
