Hi,
Food needs to be taken off this survey as there is no food served.
The deposit to reserve a table makes sense but should not be taken off the table bill because groups likely need to pay separately. This should be amended- deposits should be put down and then restored to the card. Then tables are free to pay for their drinks accordingly.

Great staff - enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It was slightly cold, not sure if that was just me though! I really enjoyed trying different guns and taking advantage of the staffs expertise and I’ve even gone out and bought a bottle of the gin I enjoyed the best! I will be back! Thank you.

A great place to go for Gin lovers on special occasions. There is no Gin menu so no way of telling the price of drinks. With a double gin and tonic costing around £10, it is not cheap by any means. However, they have some very unique gins and the service was absolutely excellent.

From arrival to having drinks at our table 30 mins - not too bad. But not great.
We’re sat next to a hen party - so ambience was screechy.
Looking forward to visiting again. Great to have a place that can actually make cocktails in Exeter!

Waited a long time to get menus (ended up getting them ourselves from the bar). Then waited a while to be served. Cocktails came quite quickly and were generally good. It will still early so there wasn’t much of an atmosphere. It felt short staffed - there needed to be a greeter, and menus on the tables.
