About this space

The Greenhouse is a lounge in The Botanist, Edinburgh. The area is a semi-private space set apart from the main dining floor to provide a quieter, more intimate setting.

Design: The room pairs dark timber floors and leather-upholstered booths with exposed stone arches and large windows that admit steady natural light. The ceiling has low pendant lights and a mix of table heights that keeps sightlines open.

Features: The space includes fixed booths, freestanding tables and armchairs that can be arranged for seated dining or standing receptions. The space provides a PA system and speakers, air conditioning and venue Wi‑Fi. The space is wheelchair accessible and has accessible toilets plus a step‑free guest entrance.

Ideal for: The Greenhouse suits intimate to mid-size social groups seeking a relaxed, informal lounge for seated meals or standing receptions.

What guests say: The space is visually lush and oasis-like thanks to abundant greenery. The space also benefits from attentive, responsive staff during busy periods.
