Nice quirky bar with exposed stell beams and unfinished brick work
-
I had a sauvginon blanc which was nice and well rounded
-
At the time all were from the Caledonian Brewery
-
The prices are fairly steep at £
-
Their cocktail list is also a bit on the pricey side
-
Instead you were offered very good food at a reasonable price
-
Starters I shared three items of food with another person at the table
-
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
-
The meat itself was finely cooked
-
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
-
The serving staff were also very friendly and happy to help throughout
-
The Jolly Botanist is a fine venue
-
When we arrived it was virtually empty
-
For a Saturday lunchtime was a little worrying
-
I was a bit overwhelmed with the amount of pizza bread
-
I was not expecting 6 or so pieces which each were at least the size of my hand
-
The flavour was good and the bread was soft and tasty
-
I tried to scrape off what I could but it made little difference as all I could taste was the perfume of the peppercorns
-
She also was a bit annoyed that the vegetables were not far off being cold
-
Even when there was no one to serve
-
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
-
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'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
-
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 been quite pleased with the service and efficiency
-
A good spot for lunch or drinks if you are in the Haymarket area
-
Given how busy it was I can see why though
-
The selection of gins is definitely good
-
Another strange thing is that while the price of the cocktails is indicated on the menu
-
When you pay the gin and the tonic are charged separately which is also curious since you are ordering a single "
-
It makes unnecessarily complicated to share the bill with your friends
-
Hipster hangout with a massive gin selection and pleasing food offerings
-
The burger was very well served
-
Add something with haggis and a couple of really good
-
Preferably) and you have the best welcome to Edimburgh meal you could ask
-
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
