It was a nice, buzzy atmosphere, and our waiter was very sweet and attentive. However, it was a bit too loud for great conversation and the service was a bit delayed. Wasn't massively keen on the shared tables.

A haven of greenery in Monument, The Folly Bar is a botanically-themed restaurant and bar from restaurateurs Drake and Morgan. Modern European dishes partner exciting cocktails at this quirky setting, characterised by giant Norwegian spruce trees.

A kaleidoscopic menu at The Folly Bar ranges from British classic beer-battered fish and chips, to prawn lollipops and a wagyu burger with blue cheese. Succulent steaks are served with chips, watercress and a choice of sauce, while a breakfast and brunch menu offers a variety of options from around the world.

Tree trunks run the length of the basement and up into the main bar at The Folly Bar in London, accompanying plant-pot lampshades and a beehive-inspired bar. Drinks range from hearty ales to fairytale-inspired cocktails, while the ‘potting shed’ deli offers delights from Borough market.

The Folly Bar Gracechurch Street is just a minute’s walk from Monument Station, and runs frequent cocktail and flambé classes.

    First of all the staff couldn't find my booking, though they did rapidly take us to a table. When the wine arrived it was warm and when the food came it was cold. The staff were apologetic , helpful , friendly and quick to put things right.
    I am not sure I would want to go there again though

    Ok, but no choice of where to sit, even though room was available, got taken downstairs. Food was pretty average, had the warm salmon salad, not worth the money.

    I sent an email the other day saying I was disappointed as it was my birthday and four of us decided we wanted the haddock and chips the waitress came back and said they hadn't any fish, we should have been told by the waitress it was off the menu, so yes disappointed as we always use the Folly when celebrating birthdays, thinking twice about it though.

    The food was excellent, but the restaurant was full and very noisy
