Joni is a coffee house collective inside the historic Curator’s House, just by the Clarkehouse Road entrance. We refurbished the building before reopening in June 2023.
A fresh, welcoming space that holds onto the character of the gardens around it.
Eat inside our bright front room, settle into the conservatory, or take a table out on the terrace and watch the lawns and glasshouses do their thing. It’s a perfect stop for a relaxed break after a wander through the grounds.
Our terrace is the heart of summer at Joni, a sheltered spot under the green canvas, looking out over the gardens. Order a coffee, a glass of something cold, or stay for lunch. Dogs welcome.
A bright, sunny space looking straight out into the gardens, ideal for larger groups, baby showers, birthdays and get-togethers. Get in touch and we’ll happily put a long table together for you.
Sunlit bay windows, a long shareable table and a relaxed feel, book ahead for celebrations and parties.
A glass-roofed dining room that runs out onto the terrace, soft pendants, plants, and a lot of light.
Honest, well-cooked food. Loved-at-Joni classics alongside seasonal specials with vegan, veggie and GF options always on.
We’ve split the menu into the parts of the day, pick where you are and have a browse.
We ask for a pre-order so we can give you our best. Book here →

This gem is a lovely space in which to relax and enjoy a good meal and good coffee. The staff are friendly and the food is varied and delicious. It’s in the Botanical Gardens so, after a great meal, you can wander through the gardens and enjoy being in nature in the middle of the city.
