The editorial take
Gin Gin's is a cocktail bar whose spirits menu carries the program. The gin list runs from London dry and Old Tom to sloe, navy strength, and regional craft bottlings, with broad whiskey coverage and a deep amaro and liqueur section behind it. Cocktails lean on handcrafted martinis and vintage recipes; the Limoncello Spritz and espresso martinis are the named drinks to know.
- What should I order?
- Start with a gin from the deep list—Aviation, Monkey 47, or Plymouth Navy Strength each show a different side of the selection. The Limoncello Spritz is the lighter cocktail option, while the espresso martini is the coffee-forward route.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Drinkers who want to compare gin styles—London dry against Old Tom, sloe, navy strength, or regional craft—will find plenty to work through. Whiskey and amaro drinkers also have broad coverage across bourbon, rye, scotch, Irish, Japanese, rum, and liqueur categories.
- When should I go?
- A good stop for a cocktail-focused evening when the goal is a considered drink or a gin comparison rather than a quick pour.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The gin selection is the defining feature: a list that spans London dry, Old Tom, sloe, navy strength, and regional craft gins, backed by broad whiskey coverage and a deep amaro and liqueur section. The cocktail side stays focused on handcrafted martinis and vintage recipes rather than a sprawling original menu.
