Graham Coombs left this review about The Botanist

It has obviously had a rebuild since the last reviews as the bar now occupies much of the front room, with a larger dining room behind, and the decoration is fairly horticultural. You can even get a cocktail in a flower pot. It does though have a good relaxed feeling and is not unpleasant. Sadly the music is a bit crappy and the clutch of keg taps is not hugely inspiring, including an overpriced Tiny Rebel and a Brixton along with Guinness and a couple of fake Eurofizz.

Nothing special about this place. Bar to rear as you come in. Only keg rubbish on offer.

Much like most of the chain although this one is possibly less horticultural than some I’ve been in. Obviously a shop conversion but with a lot of rough old wood from pallets etc, added by their stylist. Usual sort of girl friendly middle class place, the beer choice is half a dozen kegs of varying degrees of familiarity; Guinness, Amstel, Lagunitas, Birra Moretti something called Kona Big Wave, (a tame US style IPA) and summit or other from a totem pole, Christ on a bike. One end is a more formally laid out restaurant. Yes, well, um.
