Whilst venue was nice and cocktails fun. Severely understaffed. We were not given water whilst other tables were. Asked for water and they said they will get us some. 10 mins later. Nothing. Drinks took 40mins to arrive and there are only 4 tables occupied.

Really love this place. Awesome specials on Thuraday nights and happy hour. Very theatrical. My favourites were breaking bad and girls night. So many choices and lots of different gins.

We came last Friday eve and it was like a washed up mess just like the weather outside. Messy everywhere, couldn’t tell who were staff and who were patrons. Few times I asked another patron by accident if they could take my order. We sat close to the ledge where staff dumped all the dirty empty drink glasses. It sat piled high for the whole night with no one cleaning it at all. It was an eyesore. Abit disappointed. We came here for a nice evening at a cocktail lounge as work colleagues raved about how nice/classy this place was. Unfortunately not the experience we had. Definitely not refined. Almost like a uni bar. Also pricing on the scanned QR code’s for online menu are different and more it’s dearer on the bill

On the menu at Gin Lane: 1. 25min waiting time or more for your cocktail to arrive 2. Below average customer service 3. Theatrical but only OK drinks (taste wise) 4. Disappointment of missed expectations

As gin lovers, it was great for me and my partner to see a menu that had a list of (semi) obscure classic gin cocktails alongside the more verbose house originals. We were a bit disappointed that the aviation was incredibly sweet (heavy on the Violette and very purple) and the monkey gland tasted like it had orange cordial more than orange juice. Nothing against sweeter cocktails for those that prefer it, but as people that at leaat wanted to taste the gin the amount of liqueur/sugar in each didn't quite let us enjoy the gin. With the high pricing it just didn't feel worth it after that. The service, however, was impeccable. The wait staff knew the ingredients to cocktails that weren't on the list (and went to check if they had them. Corpse reviver no. 2, if relevant.) All the while the wait staff were generally lovely, even reminding us that the corpse reviver might be a bit strong. Shows good communication between the bar and wait team. Genuinely enjoyed the experience here, I only give a 2 star review for the simple fact that I wouldn't go back when I can get a better gin classic cocktail from, say, a rum focused bar that were a bit less liberal with the sweeteners.

An extensive list of cocktails, all with so much creative flare! Would highly recommend the Four Pillars Gin & Tonic Tasting Paddle, which comes with an array of self serve garnishes. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and will help guide you through the flavours! Atmosphere is great, so nice to sit out front and sip as you watch the world go by.

The girlfriend wanted to try Gin Lane, and I wanted to try Blossom which is right next to it. Because we always try to make each other happy, we settled on Gin Lane... It is a lot of original gin cocktails, some coming smocking. Staff was friendly and accommodating.
