Disappointing Experience at The Gin Bar
We visited The Gin Bar on Saturday with a small group of friends, excited by its glowing recommendations. The decor was undeniably beautiful, with a chic and inviting ambiance that set high expectations. The gin selection was impressive, featuring a curated array of unique options that any gin lover would appreciate.
Unfortunately, the experience was soured by the behavior of the female bartender. From the moment we arrived, her attitude was dismissive and unprofessional.

The place is nicely furnished with some interesting pieces but needs a lot more thought....

There's not really anywhere else like it on Abbeydale or Eccy road for gin or for the kind of atmosphere it is. The Camden beer is good, the prosecco bubbly and the tequila fine. Lots of fruity cider choices to and naturally, I boat load of gins
