Food was very nice and staff really accommodating after we rocked up 13 mins before the kitchen closed with no reservation.
We had the belly pork with black pud mash which was tasty, but could have used some crackling...
Staff couldn’t have been more helpful and must thank them for that.
Obviously we had to try some of the many, many... many gins and discovered some new ones, as you always will - try the milkthistle gin!!!
Quirky decor and fast service by friendly staff made this a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
Cosy, hipster hangout with a massive gin selection and pleasing food offerings. We had the burger - it boasted mashed avocado as well, as pertains to such a place, although the menu here doesn't mention it. The burger was very well served, generous in size and toppings, and quite tasty. Add something with haggis and a couple of really good, no-frills Gin and Tonic's (Botanist Dry and Caorunn, preferably) and you have the best welcome-to-Edimburgh meal you could ask for.
The selection of gins is definitely good. However, the staff is quite inattentive and you practically have to grab the menu yourself. Another strange thing is that while the price of the cocktails is indicated on the menu, it's not the same regarding gin tonics. I mean...if you are in a student budget (as me) you want to decide how much to spend before ordering. When you pay the gin and the tonic are charged separately which is also curious since you are ordering a single "gin tonic" and it makes unnecessarily complicated to share the bill with your friends. As for the atmosphere...well it's fine, bit does not look authentic. Pretends to be hipster, but I wouldn't say it's even that. Anyway, as said before, the gins are very good!
