We went here for cocktails and found it pricey but good. Staff and crowd are really sceney which may or may not be a good thing. Overall a good place to grab a drink but not to stay all night.

Intersteing menu - quick service and great coffee. It was a pleasant suprise and a welcome escape from hotel breakfast buffets

At The Establishment/Gin Garden, you never know what you're going to enjoy while there. One night people will be dancing Salsa style, and the next it will be a great after work place to relax or network.
We had the degustation menu and each course was delicious. The service was amazing and quite theatrical which was fun in our group of four. Worth going for a special occasion.
I went to est during the march to merivale month. We went on a Tuesday night when they hosted the "raid the cellar" night.

The servings look small but are quite filling. Degustation menu is totally worth the money, better than ala carte in my opinion. Only small gripe is that the drinks waiter was a bit pushy...
