From Sunday to Thursday of January 2024, we can have 25%discount food menus. It was nice offer. I visited on the 11th January, we had nice foods in there. Thank you! On 14th March, I passed this PuB. Although this PuB is closing in due to Lockdown, this shop’s sign was turned on. Very beautiful. I am looking forward to visiting this PuB soon!

Nice bar in Edinburgh Haymarket district. Doesn't show the footy therefore avoids the sporty types. Can get busy at times. Reserve a table to avoid disappointment

Recently discovered The Jolly Botanist and have made a couple of visits since then. It has a quirky unique decor inside with is very welcoming and comfortable. The food is fantastic! We opted for the 'scottish tapas' for a little bit of everything. It was all cooked to perfection and every dish was as delicious as the next one. Staff are friendly and helpful. With a great knowledge of the many drinks the have on offer. Treat yourself to a night here and you definitely won't regret it. Only problem will be decided which one of the fantastic dishes to order 😁

This place was great. Went with my dad and uncle for some Sunday lunch and was not disappointed at all. The Scottish tapas menu was really well thought out and has something for everyone. We got 3 dishes each, which was more than enough. However, this did make the meal relatively expensive, considering it was just an afternoon lunch. That being said, everything we ate tasted amazing, all the dishes were cooked well and the presentation was nice. Usually I'm not a dessert guy but the cheesecake I got was different class. Thankfully it was very light as it would have been hard to eat a heavy dessert after all that. I reckon this place is ideal for any sort of occasion. Definitely will be back!
