“We visited The Botanist Lincoln for my wife’s birthday dinner. The highlight of the meal was definitely the hanging kebab — absolutely delicious and full of flavour. I ordered a burger, which unfortunately felt a bit flat and didn’t quite hit the mark for me, though that might just come down to personal taste. On the positive side, the service was good and the staff were attentive. The atmosphere is also really nice — a great setting for a relaxed evening. Overall, a good experience, especially for the hanging kebab and ambience.”

“We had such a lovely experience at The Botanist in Lincoln. It was our first time visiting, my boyfriend’s parents booked it for the four of us as a birthday treat for me. …”
- Céline Denys
“We had a wonderful experience. The botanist has a great atmosphere, and the staff is very friendly and patient. We enjoyed a signature cocktail each which were both great! The food was delicious, we enjoyed the hanging chicken kebab and highly recommend upgrading to a side of the sweet potato fries! There was also a live music performance in the bar area downstairs, this was not too loud and didnt interfere with the atmosphere upstairs in the restaurant. you could still comfortably talk whilst enjoying some lovely background music.”
- Grace Pullen
“Gorgeous restaurant and bar, lovley clean tables and toilets, the atmosphere is unbelievably beautiful- perfect for any occasion. Our waitress, Sophie, was amazing too, nothing was too much hassle and she was extremely knowledgeable about the menu. The food and drinks were 10/10, i feel the price was worth it as we both left stuffed to the brim and very happy! Their Christmas and brunch menu looked fab as well. Child friendly, wheelchair/disabled friendly and the staff are very understanding of any nutritional allergies etc.”
