Botanicah the venue is located on Commercial Road on the Prahran + South Yarra Border, just around the corner from iconic Chapel Street. Unassuming from the outside, the venue is noticeable for its dramatic greenhouse roof line, a feature it shares with the courtyard, a sister space joined to Botanicah’s main space. It’s a short distance from the restaurants, boutique hotels, cafes and clubs that make Prahran the most exciting place in Melbourne. Housed in an old plastic bag factory, now converted into a dramatic greenhouse plant jungle, you can barely glimpse the brick walls and concrete floors and the climbers create a melange of lush textures blanketing the space. Botanicah offers an escape from the city and a chance to connect with nature. The unique atmosphere makes it ideal for special occasions and functions.

Went in to ask the bar attendant to please turn down the thumping music ( we live 100 Metres away ) at 5 pm. Not my problem mate go complain to the council.Didn't give a toss.Finally got to sleep at 12.30 after the venue closed. A very agro employee.

Type of response you’ll receive when you thank organiser for viewing of the space and advise you’ll be proceeding with another venue 😂 For context: I previously informed of my preferred date and venue (they’ve two, my preferred wasn’t available) so organiser kept insisting on an alternate date and location. His second last response (from yesterday) was an offer of up to half the price of the booking fee (fyi) to which I responded above. Edit: they’ve since sent a email fabricating a lie about my ‘parents’ (I went to the viewing with my brother and his partner) stealing plants while we visited the location. In any case, please send me evidence of these stolen goods and I’ll gladly address my brother and girlfriend and the police. I know we didn’t steal anything and surprised nothing was mentioned on the spot whilst we were viewing.

A great small [around +/- 30 people] venue for private functions. Reasonably appointed with shelving, bar and catering area, tables and seating. There are no surprises ... this is a older developed area with parking challenges, older style toilets, struggles with wheelchairs and prams, curfews, no heating. Of course, if you know of these restraints, then you can plan to overcome them, and still be cheerful. 👍😀 Thank you for helping us out on short notice when our original plans were mucked with foul weather.
