Loved everything about my experience at The Botanist. The atmosphere is what I heard most about, so I tried it for date night. It did not disappoint. Service was excellent, server was attentive and helpful. They are known for unique cocktails, so I tried am Encanto (tequila based with orange and basil) and it was phenomenal. Also had the Loaded Fries, which made a full meal. Can't wait to go back.
BEAUTIFUL INSIDE but you better bring a decent amount of money to enjoy it. The drinks are so beautiful and delicious but there is very little alcohol in them. The food is amazing. I haven't decided if the price is worth the atmosphere. But I want to go here all the time.
The Botanist is unlike anywhere else in Bakersfield. My partner and I came here for my birthday, and the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck us — dim, ethereal lighting that makes the world outside feel far away, giving you privacy and presence all at once. It’s the kind of setting that makes every conversation feel more meaningful.
The drinks are true works of art — botanical, layered, and memorable in every sip. The food matches that same creativity,...
