When Botanik opened in 2018, it quickly became Colombo’s favourite hangout spot for sundowners. This charming bistro bar with rustic interiors sits on the rooftop of Fairway Colombo hotel in the iconic Dutch Hospital complex, offering stunning views of the city’s skyline. There’s live music, and an impressive cocktail list that includes cinnamon-smoked whisky and tamarind-soured arrack. Also of note is its seasonal menu with Grilled Baby Squid, Falafel and Charred Okra.
