Botanico to launch in Liverpool’s Woolton Village

Seating 90 in the main restaurant and a further 30 in a dedicated tea room, Botanico will offer brunch and afternoon tea by day and an Italian bistro menu in the evening. Pizza will be available from 12pm until close. 

All the various menus will feature a wide selection of breads and pastries including croissants, cannolis, pastries, macarons and cakes that are made in house each day by Donato’s wife and Antonio’s mother Antoinetta.

Originally from Basilicata, the family are well-known in Liverpool having setup the Italian Quarter in 2010 which features venues such as Brunchin, Hey Farina, P&D Gran Caffe and Antonietta Cakes and Gelato. 

“Botanico will bring an exciting and fresh approach to this space in Woolton Village, giving guests a venue to visit in couples or groups of friends and family,” Donato says. “It’s an inclusive venue with something for everyone; from classic brunch dishes, to an all day pizza menu, a delicate and delicious Afternoon Tea as well as a full evening bistro menu with starters and main courses.”

Antonio added: “We’ll have a variety of vegan and vegetarian dishes, as well as a fresh bakery section where our guests can take away their favourite loaves, or stock up on home baked pastries. Botanico is a must-visit venue for those who love authentic Italian-inspired cuisine, as well as a wide range of classic favourites.”
