Extremely knowledgeable barman. Great cocktails and competitively priced. Really opulent décor and upmarket atmosphere.

Highly recommend! Came back to days in a row, luckily staff was the same!
Heartily welcomed, guided through tastings of several great gins, and just had an overall fantastic experience both nights. Must visit for gin or cocktail lovers in Edinburgh!

Came here for drinks on the way back from the royal mile, what an amazing drink bar! Such a cool and unique atmosphere! They have a precise menu of appetizers and charcuterie trays to go with the magical drinks, can't recommend this place enough! It's sexy as hell, as were the drinks, charcuterie was delish, and the service was top notch! Just try it!!

Excellent attentive staff who were all very welcoming. Great atmosphere with some amazing cocktails. There is a wonderful selection of spirits and house cocktails. All the staff are very knowledgeable and accommodating to special requests. I cannot recommend this venue enough. Rae and Elberto looked after my partner and I exceptionally well, we can't wait to come back!

Gorgeous decor, super comfy seats with plenty of space. Atmosphere a perfect mix of relaxed and upbeat. Lush drinks, we only got cocktails so about £9 per drink but happy to pay for the quality we got! Lovely service and friendly staff.

Nice little gin bar under the Edinburgh Gin Distillery. Friendly and skilled staff and great selection of drinks.
A bit too expensive and not really special.
They have some nice cellar separate rooms.

Had an early reservation to kick off our NYE. Our waiter Alberto was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and friendly. Started off as a pop in for 1 drink to us running late for dinner because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Drinks were all phenomenal. Highly recommend for the atmosphere, drinks and staff.

It took a bit of research to find this place, but finally we ended up in a fantastic cocktail bar with thoughtful mixology and a great selection of booze. The house recipes we tried (the bananarama, the one-shot method, and the foreshots) were creative without being too over-the-top. They offer twists on the classics (the heads (negroni), the copper pot (corpse reviver no 2)) that hold their own. Staff was friendly and fun. Nachos earned 3-stars.

A fantastic gin bar, so glad we found it. Located underground down a set of stairs you could easily miss it, but it's fantastic inside. Querky and cavernous, it's got a great atmosphere, and an amazing selection of gins, each with recommended tonics and garnishes. Does also sell cocktails and beers. Great staff, and excellent atmosphere.
