The Botanist Bar & Restaurant Barnsley

Lovely place with such a spectacular interior design with plants all over ,modernist vibe, with very good food and atmosphere. the waiters were very helpful and quick and prices are reasonable. situated in the new centre of barnsley town.

This is an amazing restaurant/ bar/ pub. massive seating in doors and outdoors. friendly welcome by smiling staff. very clean. suitable for disabled and dog friendly. i fully endorse this establishment and it is a credit to the 🍸 barnsley town centre i wish term well

Food could be better. it was okay but nothing more than that. drinks and desserts though very nice. slightly on expensive side with drinks but it would be expected of a place like this. i love the decor inside, looks amazing and it also has a great atmosphere and good music. very professional attentive staff, maybe even a bit too attentive but we went there on the opening night so that might have affected it. generally lovely place with awesome drinks but very average food.

It was great. but why not 5 stars? food - 1 star taken away for kebab that was hanging dry. i think it’s because of batch cooking and having to serve 6 hanging kebabs and burgers for 13 at more or less the same time? coleslaw looked like it’s been out a while. more importantly, for the price - it’s not all that. your local kebab shop would taste better i’m sure. other than that, the calamari was good. burgers were good. pie of the day was good. nothing outstanding but not too shabby. service - they tried their best but the place was heaving on a saturday night. servers were brilliant. 1 star taken away due to the super long gap between starters and main meal considering they were pushing us to have our starters. atmosphere- good vibe. it’s a place where one has to shout at another to be heard. drinks - these are lovely!! costly but lovely nonetheless. we had some mocktails- the blackberry and rhubard cooler was a fave! not so the botanist lemonade. overall it’s 4 stars so not bad!

Visited for a friend's birthday, not been in before and have to say that the staff were friendly and great giving us all time to select our meals. the inner decor and vibe is great throughout the building and washrooms clean and tidy. the meals we had were good. just marked down slightly due to portion size could of done with a little more meat on the kebabs. had live music playing that wasn't overly noisy to the point we could carry on with our conversation easily and the place was busy so always a good sign.
