"Food & Drink in Your Private Garden Botanika is one of San Sebastián 's best local spots to just BE. Especially if you consider yourself slightly hip, ride a fixed gear, are a NOLA-phile, or enjoy café food with a vegetarian bent. The private garden overlooks the river that runs through the city. It's off the beaten path but a wonderful spot to meet interesting locals and enjoy a beer or coffee."

small oasis in the city. BUT they let people smoke in the garden where tables to eat are. we were surrounded by 5 smokers. came out smelling like cigarettes at 10am. it was awful. it totally marked our visit. too bad because it is delicious, they have gluten free food. you gotta wait a bit when busy but it's such a nice place that it's ok. wish they would make it smoke free tho

Amazing burrata! The goat cheese burger was interestingly good, would rate it 3.5/5. My friend had the green curry with shrimp, which tasted so splendid! We went for a 10pm dinner. Our waiter spoke French and English and really helped explain the fully-Spanish menu!

This might be my new go-to lunch spot. The food is flavorful and beautifully presented. The outdoor garden area is vibrant and inviting. The service was friendly, helpful, and efficient. I had the full lunch special, which consists of a starter, main course, and dessert. On weekdays it's €18,5 and on weekends I think it's 2-3 euros more. I had a cauliflower soup, a bonito and octopus burger, and carrot cake. All were delicious. Another couple near me ordered three Ensalada Botanika as an appetizer and it looked amazing!

Very lovely place in San Sebastián! Very close to centre and near the river plus it has tables outside decorated with awesome plants. The food is very good, vegan options available. Plus the staff was very friendly and fast. Can recommend!

I usually come here to have coffee because of its terrace, today I came for lunch and I was surprisingly happy seeing the offer. Very good quality of food and the flavour of the sauce and dishes was crazy good. Very good value for the price. I will be back, totally recommendable!!

Spectacular, amazing vege and vegan options and the desserts also looked incredible. House white wine was also fantastic, 10/10 would recommend to vegans, veggies and those with no dietary restrictions 🙌 bonus points for spectacular garden dining area and the lovely waiting staff.

A must visit for plant lovers!! The plethora of plants makes you feel like you’re in an arboretum. The cactus wall was so cool. I came here for breakfast while working. They have free wifi. However I could t stay past 1pm when they started serving lunch. Juice and yogurt were great, the yogurt was served I in a pretty big portions. I thought the scrambled eggs were kinda boring, though. I think it should come with a small side like some sort of salad, not just bread!

Really great food. An amazing outdoor terrace. But the service was very slow. We took the smoked salmon with cheese and the smoked salmon with Avocado. Both were a 10 💯. The carrot cake was super as well. Good choice for brunch. You should come before 12 tho. For lunch, you have to make a reservation and it starts at 1 I guess.
