Botanic Cafe

This ultra hip Botanic Cafe/Bistro has brought a modern buzz to the often conservative Adelaide dining scene with a contemporary approach including a New York meets Mediterranean interior design, a fabulous long marble communal table.

The Botanic Cafe has been humming along very nicely for few years, but now has leaped forward under the passionate new owner Cono Gorgone, true to Cono's own Sicilian heritage, the cuisine favours Italian with a dash of Mediterranean.

Skirting the edge of East Terrace, Botanic Cafe’s face is as pretty as its personality. The generous street frontage is an extension of the dining room, where pavement tables are screened from the sun by energetic greenery and wide calico umbrellas.
Even better news, the kind staff won’t forget you if you choose to dine outside.

Stunning artworks of pinks and violets flush each opposite wall and discerning diners sip espresso and talk business. The regulars know Botanic’s style of fine food down to the type of pasta used and the great wines by the glass; that the staff love to recommend wine and food matches.

Located on one of Adelaide’s prettiest streets, this funky, up-beat cafe is camouflaged on the outside by an historic early 1900's building. Once inside, the well thought out interior design features such as the banquettes and long marble table are instrumental in creating Botanic Cafe's sense of casual cosmopolitan chic.

It's a highly popular place for a glass of wine or a quick snack!
