A new chapter is on the horizon for Botanica as we undergo extensive renovations.

To help with planning your future bookings, we anticipate being closed for 12 weeks but a reopening date to be confirmed closer to completion.

For guests with existing bookings during this period, we will be in touch.

Dinner can be enjoyed at one of our sister restaurants: @circa1876 at @theconventhuntervalley or @eremorestaurant at @spicersguesthouse.

All enquiries should be directed to our email address found at the link in bio, or on our website.

We look forward to welcoming you back later this year!

Approachable dining in the heart of the Hunter Valley.

In the heart of the Hunter, you’ll experience the best it has to offer at Restaurant Botanica.

We call this ‘dinner and a show’. Botanica is perfectly oriented to catch the most stunning sunsets over the Brokenback Range right around dinner time.

New #HunterValley wine on the list: a Zibbibo by @majama_wines. We’re loving this one - handpicked in the Hunter Valley and given 10 days of skin contact in Indian clay amphorae—specifically, a Kothi.

A culinary beacon, lighting up the Hunter Valley night.

Dinner guest or curious neighbour? At Restaurant Botanica, even the locals like to check out what’s on the menu.

Just steps from the kitchen, the freshest touches make their way from garden to plate.

'Oven baked gnocchi, sage, beetroot, sesame.'

'Berkshire pork roulade, nashi pear, artichoke, mustard vinegarette.'

With some of the Hunter Valley’s finest wines in our cellar, the choice is yours: handpick a bottle or let our team find the perfect match for your meal.

‘Confit chicken, butternut, ras el hanout, crème fraiche.’

The magic touch by Head Chef Adam Frey: 'Berkshire pork roulade, miso, cabbage and soy.'

The perfect time of year to enjoy a glass (or two) besides the vines before heading inside for dinner.

'Smoked smore, miso caramel, marshmallow.'

We are proud to share that @restaurantbotanica at @spicers.vineyards.estate has been awarded and maintained their Three Glass rating in the 2024 Australian Wine List of the Year Awards!

This prestigious recognition highlights our commitment to curating an exceptional wine list for our guests. A huge thank you to our talented team and wonderful guests for making this possible. We look forward to continuing to provide outstanding wine experiences.
