The Botanist, Exeter

In the heart of the Guildhall Shopping Centre in Exeter is The Botanist, a floral restaurant and bar boasting a gorgeous outdoor terrace laced with warm, glowing lights alongside a cosy fireplace. Step inside to discover the swoon-worthy dining room adorned with botanical features and sleek furnishings.  

Serving up a fresh and indulgent range of exceptional food and drinks, the menu features international and British dishes such as fish and chips, plus fragrant noodles and curries. Sundays see a flock of people through the door for its hearty roasts, and a regular standout item is the word-famous hanging kebabs. Drinks-wise, The Botanist knows how to whip up a creative cocktail or two, like the fruity poppy and pink gin punch with strawberry syrup.
