The Bar We’ve Been Waiting For

Bahrain's newest bar, Botanica, is a sight for all to see. Chic, paired back and with a chilled vibe that is worth a visit.

Finally, Bahrain has the bar it deserves…Botanica.

It’s the kind of bar that reflects us residents and represents our soulful little island.

Walk into the clever space, huge palm tree flanking the bar, low lighting, range of seating, excellent gin selection. It’s all spot on. 

For food, a short menu of Greek inspired dishes is on offer including options like the unpronounceable (maybe it will be easier to say after a few cocktails!) Melitzanosalata; a smoky aubergine dip, Croquettes, Salads and Filo Dough Feta.

Located nearish Lanterns in Adliya’s Block 338, check the map here.

Thank you Botanica for knowing what we needed.
