The Folly is a botanically inspired bar and restaurant at 41 Gracechurch Street, opposite Monument station in the City of London. Spread across two floors, its foliage, floral details and varied seating create an everyday escape for breakfast meetings, lunch, dinner, drinks and large social gatherings.
Morning service includes cooked breakfasts, eggs, pancakes and lighter choices, while brunch extends the relaxed pace later into the day. Coffee, fresh juices and alcohol free drinks make the venue practical for early meetings as well as weekend meals with friends.
The all day menu moves between small plates, salads, burgers, fish, steaks and seasonal mains. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are clearly represented, and sides and desserts allow a table to turn a quick main course into a longer meal without losing the venue’s informal style.
Cocktails are a particular strength, ranging from familiar martinis and margaritas to fruit led house creations, spritzes and sharing serves. Wine, craft beer and cider broaden the bar, while private vaults, a dedicated dining room and expansive event space support celebrations and corporate occasions.
