Botanic

Christchurch City, Christchurch



Botanic enjoys a warm balcony overlooking the Avon with a long, clean interior with pockets of bench seating, and a rear rooftop garden bar sheltered by a modern glasshouse.

The menu is light and healthy yet diverse in flavour.  Think seared tuna in an herb crust; buttermilk fried chicken with waffles; steamed clams in a prosecco and parsley liquor; and white chocolate panna cotta with an almond praline.

The diverse menu is complemented by a choice of refreshing summer cocktails developed by renowned mixologist James Crinson.  If guests prefer a glass of vino to unwind, they can savour a glass from their wine list curated by Australian winemaker, David Messum. 

Botanic offers locals a relaxed venue and is ideal for business lunches and post-work drinks.

Functions:

The restaurant is available for special events and private parties.  The Front Room can host up to 100 people with a beautiful front balcony overlooking the Avon river.  The Glass House can host up to 70 people.  Draped in plants, the room provides a more casual experience with its own bar that allows groups to experience the outdoors with the comfort of an enclosed space. 

Opening Hours:

Monday - Sunday:  12.00pm - late
