The Gardens Café by Kathy G.

Our family had a great lunch at the beautiful gardens today. Such prompt service and enjoyed basil tomato soup grilled cheese and fries with the kiddos

What an amazingly perfect place to grab lunch! I dined here several times and was never disappointed. If you like gardens, or people watching, request an outside table and feast your eyes as you, well, feast.

Lovely restaurant inside Birmingham's botanical gardens. They have a great menu ranging from salads and sandwiches to full entrees. The service was excellent and the food was exquisite. We were there for restaurant week. I had the pan seared trigger fish and my wife had the tomato pie both were delicious.

Cute cafe and great food! The lunch specials are wonderful and the cost was outstanding. Definitely a must go to!

I ordered the vegetable sandwich on focaccia bread w/ garlic aioli and Parmesan potato chips. Also had the raspberry lemonade. Top notch food!

I was more than pleasantly surprised with this place. I was expecting tiny portions and huge prices. On the contrary, there was a great selection of amazingly delicious food including children's meals at great prices. Good service and friendly staff in a quiet, well-appointed setting. It's a must have.

Shout-out to Vel, our server! Super sweet, very accommodating, and fast service. The bread was amazing, as well as the carrot ginger soup, chicken salad, tomato basil soup, and fries! Nice high ceilings and clean bathrooms, as well. Delicious, fast, and welcoming! 🦋

I think this is Birmingham‘s best kept secret. The food is always so wonderful and fresh, and it’s super affordable!

Wonderful service, really nice atmosphere!
The food was good and fresh came really fast ! Thank you! 🥰

Wonderful atmosphere dining inside with ample room between parties to feel very safe. The pasta was great as was the tomato basil soup. We especially liked the bread before lunch and the stroll through the garden afterwards. Yet another cultural treasure in Birmingham.

Prices are affordable, the inside or outside view is beautiful and clean. The food!!! Mouthwatering! 🤤

Brittany is an excellent hostess who helped me plan a delightful luncheon for my friend's birthday.
Also, the staff was prompt and on top of it all.
We had the Pecan Chicken Salad and the Quiche Lorraine - both exceptional and homemade! Delicious! Compliments to the ones who had a part in making this.
Although this was an accidental find our part, we have already determined to come back again. I'm anxious to try the Turkey melt sandwich. 😁
Thanks to all.

Convienient and beautiful restaurant located at the front of the Botanical Gardens. Indoor and outdoor seating with a beautiful view all the way around. The food was fantastic and well priced! I had the Reuben and my girlfriend had one of there salads. Portions were plentiful and everything was fresh and well prepared. The staff did an excellent job taking care of us. Very impressed and will be back soon

I host a large seated banquet annually. Natalie and her entire team are amazing! They are true, experienced professionals, and the events they have catered for me have been perfect. The team functions like a well-oiled machine--- they even graciously and gracefully rescued me from a last minute date mix-up one evening, and I think it might have been the best event ever! Natalie and her Kathy G Team catered my daughter’s wedding reception at the Gardens Café and The Botanical Gardens. All of our guests raved about the atmosphere, the food, and the stellar service-- and my daughter was thrilled with everything. I highly recommend Kathy G’s for any event, and I would not use anyone else!

Really enjoyed my sinuses went through the roof but oh well there is no price for beauty such a beautiful place

Luther is the best . But all the staff is great . Very good quality food at very affordable prices 👌

Wonderful service and outstanding food at very reasonable prices. Lovely room and terrific location in the gardens.

The food and service were both very good. The location is beautiful and the gift shop has many very nice gift items.

Enjoyed a fabulous meal with excellent service and atmosphere. Resonable priced with views of the gardens a plus.

Thursday's special is shrimp and grits and it was wonderful.

ALWEP had a monthly meeting here and the space is very elegant. The buffet was plentiful and delicious!
