The Bot has improved immensely since it first reopened its doors in its current state. Food is good and they seem to have finally got their coffee act together. 'Dukes' coffee is great and consistency is finally emerging. They've got top a top machine and they have finally learnt how to use it!!

Lovely place, good food, great location, TERRIBLE coffee. Been here 3 times in the last 3 weeks hoping the barista would improve - unfortunately not! If coffee is your thing, avoid :-(

As the name suggests this café/restaurant is set next to Melbourne’s famous Botanical Gardens. It’s a very nicely designed space and the food served here is some of the best in Melbourne. I decided to drop the kids off for the morning and escape here with my wife for breaky. I was pleasantly surprised with the Lavazza coffee served, whilst not adorned with amazing latte art my Flat White was full of flavour without being bitter or too hot. I also had their eggs Benedict which was very nice also. The Botanical is also a great place for people watching on a busy Sunday morning and if you ar...
