"Replacing the infamous Spiders Web pub, the Jolly Botanist has done a good job in massively changing the appearance of the premises, in the process shifty out the seedy types from the bar. The bar itself has a fine selection of lagers, and it has three ale pumps, although at the time all were from the Caledonian Brewery. They do of course have much more on offer in the spirits category especially an abundance of gin. If you are a fan of gin, which many people seem to be these days, you can easily find a gin to match your taste palate. The prices are fairly steep at £5.40 for a Caorunn gin and tonic, and their cocktail list is also a bit on the pricey side. The food menu looked good, drawing you in like a sea siren, but there was no shipwreck, instead you were offered very good food at a reasonable price. For starters I shared three items of food with another person at the table, which were the Homemade Haggis Scotch Egg, Fishcakes and a Pizza Bread. The Fishcakes were okay, but the other two were excellent and came in fairly cheap for the size of portion. The main course I plumped for was the Pork Belly with Chorizo Mash, which came in at £11. The meat itself was finely cooked, but perhaps the staff would be best served giving out a steak knife to cut through the pork crackling. The only downside was the size of the portion of the mashed potato which was laced with chorizo, it could have been slightly bigger. But on taste the food won hands down. The serving staff were also very friendly and happy to help throughout, despite the bar being suitably packed due to it being a Saturday night. So for the gin enthusiast and people who like very good food in a bar, the Jolly Botanist is a fine venue."

Nice quirky bar with exposed stell beams and unfinished brick work. Casual atmosphere but bit pricey. I had a sauvginon blanc which was nice and well rounded.

It was excellent! We had dinner and it definitely deserves two thumbs up. The adult beverages were also quite impressive. I highly recommend paying them a visit and giving it a try!

A must-visit destination for every gin lover. The restaurant boasts an extensive selection of gins from around the globe, each with recommended pairings featuring tonic and shrimp. Don't forget to sample their light nibbles; the beetroot-marinated salmon and tikka skewers are exceptional and pair perfectly with the drinks!

The place is spacious with a nice vintage decor. We ordered a Sunday Roast with three Scottish tapas cured salmon, Scotch egg and monkfish cheeks. All food was great the slices of roast sirloin were flavourful and very tender, and we love all the tapas, particularly the gooey egg yolk in Scotch egg. There is a wide range of gin available, though we only had the cocktails and they were excellent. An enjoyable experience! Speisekarte ansehen

The restaurant has a spacious layout and charming vintage decor. We ordered the Sunday Roast along with three Scottish tapas: cured salmon, a scotch egg, and monkfish cheeks. Everything was delicious; the roasted egg slices were flavorful and quite delicate, and we enjoyed all the tapas, especially the egg yolk in the scotch egg. There’s also an extensive selection of gin, though we stuck to cocktails, which were outstanding. Overall, it was a delightful experience!

I'm glad I finally got a chance to visit this great little place. I only went for drinks and I didn't see anyone eating so I can't comment on the food. However, there was a really great atmosphere- it was super busy for early evening on a Thursday! I'm not a gin expert and I was a little disappointed there wasn't an obvious gin list on view anywhere as I would have liked to peruse at leisure. I really loved the music and the decor. Very hipster though- avoid if that's not your thing!

I really enjoyed my visit to The Jolly Botanist. The bar is divided from the restaurant area which is a very good setting in my opinion. The bar area was very busy when we got there but we booked a table so we seated in the restaurant area straight away. The gin selection is very good and you can get any gin cocktail you can think of. I didn't order a starter but the pizza bread my friends had looked very good and it was a very big portion as well. I had a fish fillet but I don't see it on the menu now so they must have changed it since I've been there last time. I really enjoyed the food and the ambience. And I'll be definitely returning soon!

I've been to the Jolly Botanist several times as it is quite close to work. They serve a super collection of gin and gin related cocktails which is right up my street. The place can get very busy towards the end of the week with office crews conjugating for drinks so it is wise to book a table if you do decide to go there on a Thursday or a Friday. I've had their burgers and their fish the panfried sea bass was lovely. I also enjoyed their desserts the ice cream selection was very good. My favourite though is their chunky chips overpriced for the amount they give you but very tasty.I've once been there with a colleague who has food allergies and they were very considerate. I've generally bee...

was often with the botanist to enjoy her huge gin offer, but since we were in the opposite, we decided to go there to dinner. the place was absolutely dug, with people who cling in to observe the rugby. from the view of the menu in the past it looks much shorter than I remember. we were both very sharp on the haggis scotch egg...just to say when our waitress came back that there was no one. that was a game changer. Instead we have to start the meat-sharing plate, and the rib of the beef main. the plate could have done us, it was massive and we were not warned. hams, cuddly pizzabrot, crostini and oliven. was okay. next came a huge rippchen, with sweet potato friries and meerrettichslawe. the...
