The Botanist

I love the decor here! The theme of the Botanist is very horticultural and it's beautiful inside (even the toilets fit the theme!)

the Botanist also looks out over Salford Quays which is a lovely view on a sunny day, and for colder days there's a lovely heated indoor balcony with seating.

The Botanist has such a big selection of beers, I recommend the chocolatey dark beer (I can't remember the name which isn't helpful). The cocktails are served very artistically too, and I'm sure everyone will find one for their personal tastes!

The food was fantastic too, I had the hake which was cooked perfectly. And the staff were excellent too.

On the night we went, there was also live music playing which really added to the ambience of the place. I will definitely be making a return visit.

My first time at Media City and had the best experience at the Botanist! The decor inside was as if you were abroad and the welcoming by the staff was very relaxed and friendly! We started our evening trying a couple of cocktails and their signature cocktails were amazing, presented in plant-pots and lab bottles! The food was delicious, started with nibbles of pork scratchings, served in a mini wheel barrow, followed by pate, their famous kebab on a skewer and mousse for dessert (which could have been a little lighter). I'd like to return during the day and sit outside on the terrace looking over media city! Great experience and highly recommended.
