Part of the Drake & Morgan group, The Folly is a beautiful botanical bar and restaurant located in the heart of London. You’ll spot its iconic floral doorway on Gracechurch Street - just moments from Monument underground station - giving guests an idea of the garden-inspired dining experience to come. Perfect for day drinking, group celebrations and corporate socialising, The Folly is a popular choice among Londoners, as well as those travelling to the city from further afield.
Spanning two floors, multiple bars and a streetside terrace, The Folly is a versatile space for all sorts of occasions. Designed with a distinctive floral theme, the main dining area is decorated with sprawling plants, long wooden benches and dramatic chandeliers, best suited to bigger groups and celebrations. Elsewhere, cosy seating nooks feature patterned armchairs, soft rugs and twinkling fairy lights for more intimate occasions and client meetings. Downstairs, the basement bar and restaurant has ample space for lively gatherings, work events and drinks-led socialising.
The Folly’s all-day dining menu offers a wide variety of snacks, sandwiches, burgers, hearty mains and sides, providing something to suit everyone and all occasions, from breakfast meetings to late-night bites. If you’re looking for sharing-style plates, why not order a selection of fresh salads, delicious flatbreads and tasty sides? If you prefer to have your own plate, there’s everything from stargazy fish pie and chicken Milanese to flash-grilled minute steak and Wagyu sausage and mash. To make catering easy, big groups can also dine from food packages available for pre-order.
Whether it’s a big birthday, a spontaneous catch-up or a client meeting, The Folly is a place for flexible dining, great drinks and easy-going socialising - a good one to have in your back pocket when looking for a restaurant in the City of London.
