Fonthill Tap room & Cocktail bar in Tunbridge Wells

They claimed to have the best negroni in Tunbridge Wells, I concur. Probably the best in all the Home Counties and top service too. A little gem, definitely worth a visit. Thanks lads

A small tap room and gin bar in the heart of Tunbridge Wells. The available cask beers are not those on the board, which I found hugely disappointing and quite honestly lazy. The couple of beers that I did have, a Best Bitter and an APA where very fresh and good honest, no nonsense beers.

Fabulous 🤩 lovely personalised service. Serving the best cocktails 🩷

Came in for 1 drink and ended up spending the rest of the night here. Lovely quirky bar with brilliant craft beer - didn’t try the cocktails but they looked good. Made to feel very welcome. If I was a local I know where I’d be on a Friday and Saturday night.

Honestly the best cocktail bar around, the atmosphere is second to non, nobody mixes drinks better than the guys here.Alround probably the best bar in the area, cannot recommend it enought.

Exceptionally good valued Cask Ales brewed right on sight. One of the most unique places to visit in Tunbridge Wells, it simply has to go on your checklist. A truly liminal space and bohemian cocktail bar, where you can frequently meet a whole new bunch of friends whilst hearing some very interesting music played by the Bar Staff. If your interested in eclectic drinks probably one of the largest selection of beverages in Tunbridge Wells. You will not regret visiting on a Friday or Saturday night.

Amazing service, cocktails tailored to liking and lovely, chilled atmosphere - small independent business you would be a fool to miss this place!

Went here 1st time last Saturday for one drink, staff was great, drinks were lovely. Will come back more. Thank you

I love this place, and I've been there a few times now. Great beer, brewed on site. They also do some amazing cocktails too. The staff take time to talk with you. If you like beers, this is the place to go. You can even get your drinks there and sit in the garden of the George inn next door. How cool is that. Or sit upstairs where they have a snug.

We booked out Fonthill Tap room for a private work event and the feedback we had from everyone was great. Alastair and the team are excellent hosts, and the drinks they were offering and preparing for us and the quality and choice of alcohol were great. Having the place to ourselves and being able to try a variety of drinks made it feel like more of a personal experience and something a bit different. They also arranged some food for us with the pub across the road. Thanks guys, cant wait to come back :)

Super cute cocktail bar with great vibes. Booked the upstairs for my birthday drinks and Alastair and his team were fantastic. They let us put up little birthday banners and balloons and were on hand to help with anything we needed. Drinks here are always superb and you can tell they really care about good quality cocktails! My friends and I had a great night and will defo be coming back, great local spot and a real hidden gem!

The guys doing the Gin Box are great. Great beers and cocktails, a place feels like home.

Great cocktails, the bar staff really know their stuff, and the best Vesper martini I've ever had, hands down.

Absolutely lovely place. Amazing gin, amazing staff and amazing atmosphere

An amazing place with not only perfect gin but perfect beers. Cannot recommend highly enough, the two men who run are amazing and chatty. Perfect place for a lovely pint and an even more amazing gin

Wonderfully welcoming cosy, gorgeous little space …. Simple and sophisticated:) excellent upstairs attic style seating area .. can’t wait to get Cosy up there with some drinks and cards ✨ Highly recommend :) amazingly beautiful fresh flower displays and an EPIC selection of gin … I went with a suggested gin I’d never tried with a tonic is also never tasted and they were sublime They’re also happy for you to order food to the seating as they only have bar nibbles, nuts and crisps.. also great 👍 Can’t wait to come back 🐥 super accessible if you’ve cycled there loads space, Yayyy for this awesome characteristic place

So easy to order and the delivery and tracking information was excellent. Would certainly order with them again

This was a gift and my friend called me to give me his review as he felt it was warranted! " Fantastic packaging, well presented and amazing gin" 👏 Very happy with service Found The Gin Box via Key&Quill insta

Service at the Gin Box shop is absolutely amazing! Even down to someone calling me to ensure everything was what I expected. My order is now here and I am so pleased with everything- would absolutely order again!

Super easy and fast delivery, especially when ordered so close to Christmas.

Great little gin and cocktail shop and bar - owners very knowledgeable and friendly

Fast delivery, great customer service. Will definitely use again.

From my initial enquiry from The Gin Box website, to delivery of my order, communication was excellent. The emails I received offered not just information but also struck a chord with their personalised tone. They even included a suggestion as to a rather good cocktail using the Baked Apple and Salted Caramel Gin and Apple Brandy - it is rather special! The gins arrived packed extremely well, (not all sellers pack their wares like this), and enclosed was a lovely hand written note. I shall definitely be using again and have already recommended The Gin Box to friends. A wonderful combination of more unusual gins and spirits, at sensible prices combined with good old fashioned customer service.

Very efficient service. Excellent gin. Really enjoyed by our gin loving visitors! Highly recommend both the merchant and the gin.

Love the customizable element of the site - great to be able to build my gift set exactly how I wanted it. Delivery was fast and came really well presented. Great shop!

Fantastic! Delivery arrived a day early despite everyone else’s “pandemic” excuses. Perfect gift! Very happy recipient. Very easy to navigate the website.

The Gin Box I bought was for my mum in the Uk (I’m in Aus). She received it beautifully wrapped and exactly as described. And she and my dad loved the different flavoured gin and mixers. Shame I couldn’t be with them to enjoy it together but I’m glad they loved it.

Great selection to choose from. I am based in the US and wanted to get a special birthday present for a friend in the UK. I was able to select a lovely gin with a suitable tonic and it was all delivered in a lovely gift bag exactly when they said item would be. Our friend is thrilled with her gift and I was delighted at how easy it was!!

I recently purchased a gift for my brother-in-law. My sister said the gin, coaster and gift bag were really nice and that the bag was of good quality which isn’t always the case from other companies. Tony was very pleased with his gin. I will definitely use The Gin Box again. They are very prompt with turning round orders.

Admittedly, I like the great selection of all sorts of different drink types and flavours, but this was the first time that I'd used this company and it's delivery service, and I was NOT impressed! Not really sure whose fault it was, but I paid the best part of £8 for "Priority" delivery for just ONE bottle of gin: the given delivery date for this was Mon. 21st June (2021). It did NOT arrive. The delivery system goes through six stages, and it wasn't even at Stage 1 on the due date. It arrived late after lunch the following day, so I wasted a whole day waiting for the delivery...so much for paying for the Priority Delivery! Thank goodness that I hardly ever do online shopping, and this issue exemplifies WHY! Not likely to rush into it again any time soon.

This was my second time using The Gin Box, both times for their gifts of miniature craft gins, beautifully packaged and presented. I've been really impressed with the range and creativity as well as the prompt service too

Purchase was a birthday present for a friend who loved it. Great value for money, fast delivery and easy tracking. My Friend who received the gift is already hooked and has bought a bottle of her favourite!

Absolutely top notch guys. Always reliable, never any hassle. Have been using for several years and will continue to do so. Living abroad it makes gifts ans little pick me up presents so easy. Thanks as always, Mark, Bahrain.

Arrived when expected and was very well packed. Fast and good buying - and a lovely gift for my Sister - thank you.

I ordered from NZ and it arrived promptly, can't ask for much more.

I ordered a gift bag of Gin and mixers for a friend on The Gin Box and even though I had a few issues ordering on the website, I called the business owners and even on a weekend they were incredibly quick and responsive on getting back to me and helpping me sort out my ordering issues. A very helpful and personal service, would definitely use them again! Delivery of the gift was on the date I wanted and my friend loved it! Thanks!

I will certainly use The Gin Box again. The site was easy to navigate, and the selection excellent, with many unusual gift suggestions. Check out was equally painless, and the goods were delivered exactly as promised.

Ordered a bottle of Sheffield Gin. Straightforward process, clear about delivery charges - no fuss, no nonsense. Product arrived within stated time. Driver left with a trusted neighbour as I was out. Well packaged and undamaged. Happy shopper 👍

Great choice of gins. Really good service, packaged beautifully. Will definitely use them again

I ordered a collection of gin miniatures for my sister’s birthday. She loved them and commented how lovely it was wrapped. Thank you so much for making her lockdown birthday special.

Used the service to send a little thank you gift. Great value, presentation of the box and bottles was wonderful, nice and simple idea. Will certainly use again

Easy to navigate website, gift delivered as promised. Super efficient and super easy.

Reached out through the website to make a big order to go to multiple places - I have never worked with such helpful and professional people. Not only did they respond quickly and with all the information I needed, they also tracked the deliveries and updated me on them periodically without me having to ask. Fantastic value too :) 100% recommend

So pleased with my sisters gin, so fancy! I put the completely wrong address in and it was so easy to sort. Amazing service!

I was looking for a gin that was different for my husbands 50th birthday and came across lots not seen before. Really good range, easy purchase experience and arrived well packaged in recycled packing. Hopefully the chosen hun will be great tasting!

Used The Gin Box for the first time to send a 50th birthday treat to my cousin. Excellent choice on the easy to use website . Even had the option for gift bag and wrapping. Very good quality products and well presented. The gift was well received. Would not hesitate to use The Gin Box again

Excellent service from professional experts. A vast variety of gins!

The website was easy to use. I got 2 gift bags for friends for Christmas. They arrived well packed & looked lovely. I would definitely recommend using this company 👍

I live in Australia. Buying gifts ftom this company for relatives around the UK is an absolute pleasure. Ordering is easy. Packing ifor delivery is well done. Collection by Parcel Force is quick. Delivery is as stated. I understand their gins are imaginative and tasty. Well done. Small business accumen is obvious.

I ordered a bottle of gin for delivery to my daughter for her birthday, the website was easy to use and had an abundance of unusual gins to choose from. The order confirmation email was instant, and the delivery was problem free on the estimated day. I would definitely use The Gin Box again.. and again...and again....

Ordered on Tuesday evening at 6 bottles arrived at 7.30am on Thursday. Superb service.

Excellent service. Dispatched immediately and very well packaged. Will use The Gin Box again for sure :)

Excellent choice & variety, great gift options, good value, quick service/delivery and items well packed

Excellent range of gins, easy to use website and prompt delivery. Superb all round!

Can’t praise The Gin Box Shop enough. We ordered a couple of bottles as a birthday treat for someone close. The descriptions on the website were personal and second to none- giving us a clear idea of the flavors we were choosing. Ended up with a bottle of Jarrolds and a Copperfield Vol 1. As well as some other special treats - a Jarrold’s Copa and some speciality tonics. Our niece couldn’t decide which one she preferred - at first it was the Jarrolds - she never tasted such smooth and mellow gin - but then it was the Copperfield. Difficult to beat this birthday present now. She was delighted with her surprise and we were impressed with the ease of ordering, quick delivery and good communication. Thank you Gin Box Shop.. you will certainly be receiving future orders from us. Brilliant service!

My experience shopping with The Gin Box was amazing. Being all online, I was surprised by how quick and responsive the team were. The customer service was second to none for me. I was trying to order a gin based gift for my sister and I had some issues with the online system for ordering the sample gifts, but Bob replied to my query almost immediately, even though it was past normal shop hours, and helped me order what I wanted, found me alternatives if something wasn't available and even helped me get the order out and to my sister on time for her birthday. I can't recommend The Gin Box more highly.

We had a blip with Parcelforce but Bob from The Gin Box chased, challenged them and kept me updated every step of the way. I was very impressed with the way my query on the delivery was handled and would definitely recommend them for their customer service and care taken. Having also previously been a recipient of a gin box bag they are just fantastic.

Very swift delivery, quality product.

Fabulous range of products, with my selection delivered quickly and very thoughtfully and securely packed. Very impressed with the whole experience and will definitely order again.

Ordered a gin box, with Sipsmith gin, fever tonic and two big G&T glasses for a colleague to thank them for a job well done. The site experience was simple and straightforward, found everything I needed and was able to make payment easily. Colleague received the gift three days later and was very pleased! All around a great experience from a growing business.

Absolutely perfect from idea to products. Make a great gift and the team are friendly and precessional. Definitely recommend!

Absolutely outstanding service! I placed an order for a friend's birthday and as there was an option to add a message to the store I wrote the date of the birthday and asked that I be contacted if they were unable to send the gift in time. I received a personal reply, not only saying that this should be no problem, but also offering to help further should the parcel tracking show any problems. My friend was delighted with the gift, I with the service and I will certainly be a returning customer. I highly recommend The Gin Box whether buying for yourself or as a gift.

Such a lovely gift, beautifully wrapped & well worth the buy. I accidentally ticked the wrong box during my purchase & straight away someone called me to check it was correct. My sister loved it, I’ll definitely be buying from here again. Thank you

I was very impressed with the speed of my delivery and everything was packaged securely, which was an initial concern to me. Most importantly was the ease of ordering.

Great selection, varied price points, super fast delivery even during bloody COVID

Excellent service. Reasonable prices. Wide range of gin including some that are usually difficult to get elsewhere. Will buy again

Good choice of gins. Bought as a gift so really liked the option to send as a gift. Quick and efficient service.

Ordered a gift for my friend and her daughter celebrating some milestone birthdays in lockdown. The product was high quality, arrived on time (early in fact) and was very much enjoyed as a special gift by the recipients. Highly recommend!

A nice presentation box would complete the service

Recently placed an order as a gift for my sister in law for her birthday. Loved the choice and flexibility of the website, lots of great gin products to choose from. Easy to place an order and communication from The Gin Box was spot on. Happy to say the gift arrived in plenty of time, was packaged perfectly and care was definitely taken with the packing including placing items into the gift bags. My sister in law was chuffed to bits & loved her present. Thank you, I only found you because of lockdown but now I have I will definitely be using you again. Great service and highly recommended.

Looking for a high quality present for a friend with a lockdown birthday last week and The Gin Box came to my rescue. Friend was delighted with the delivery, the beautiful packaging and of course the contents. Made a great impression and made my friend feel very special.

Really easy website to use, a range of fab items that made it hard to choose! Really quick dispatch and delivery, great quality!

I bought a small miniature gin collection as a present. It was very well received and delivery time was fantastic. Good website and easy to order. Thanks.

I ordered a bottle of gin and some mixers online from Sydney Australia to be delivered to my nephew in London as a surprise gift to ease the pressure of lockdown It was a professional and seamless transaction across the oceans.Jason loved his gift and I will certainly use Gin Box in future for gift giving

Ordered as a gift . Arrived very quickly and beautifully packed

The guys at The Gin Box Shop went above and beyond to process a complicated order for me with delivery to France without hesitation. The gins arrived in exceptional time as a gift for my husband's birthday. He was over the moon with the delightful assortment of the most delicious gins we have ever tasted. Thank you for exceptional service and amazing products.

Excellent selection of gins, accurate descriptions, good mixer options, great service, highly recommended

No problems at all. Good selection, easy website and excellent speedy delivery

I was really happy with the swift service from The Gin Box. I even received a phone call to ask if I wanted to include a gift message with my order. My gift arrived the next day for my niece’s lockdown birthday! Thank you

Fantastic service, prompt delivery, and delicious Gins. Thank you so much. Definitely a firm favourite in these troublesome days. Stay safe :)

I wanted to buy a present for a friend, and wanted to have it delivered as soon as possible. I found The Gin Box website had plenty of choice, ordering was very easy, and the gift was delivered quickly. My friend was very pleased with her present and I was very pleased with the ease of ordering it. I will definitely buy again from The Gin Box.

I was looking for a gift that could be sent to a gin loving friend during lockdown and the Gin Box provided the ideal solution. It was a very straight forward ordering process and the gift was delivered to my friend in no time at all. He was very very happy with the contents :) Highly recommended.

We sent a gift set of gins to the mother in law and she loved them! Lovely company to deal with.

I found the Gin Box through Google and of all the options they seemed to have the best selection and competitively. I was placing 3 orders, one for each daughter, and the first 2 went through easily. For some reason there was a glitch with the third and so I fired off an email. Rob was texting and phoning back within 5mins and we sorted it ...what amazing customer service 😍😍 he also pointed out I had chosen different postage options so the presents were likely to arrive at different times possibly causing sibling rivalry... So he saved my bacon again!!!

Bought as a gift - Gin Box phoned me to check on the included message; delivery was very quick; the recepient commented on how wonderfully it had been wrapped. Very pleased

I recently ordered a large gift bag with glasses, selection of gins, mixers etc. The recipient was absolutely delighted, everything was individually and beautifully wrapped in recyclable packaging, lovely card, etc. Particularly liked the nice touch of a bar of soap and accompanying lovely message. Well done The Gin Box, will recommend you to others and return for future gifts!

Great service, everything perfectly packed and delivered really quickly.

5 starts is not high enough! Amazing service and my gin arrived to the recipient sooner than expected.

Fantastic range of gins, lots of bottles I'd not seen before. We were getting a gift for Mother's day and picked up a range of miniatures and some mixers in a gift bag. I received a call the next morning from the Gin Box team to confirm if I wanted a message with the bag. Exceptional service and prompt delivery!

Absolutely amazing customer service- I placed my order as a gift and within an hour I had a call asking if I had forgotten to add a gift note as they had noticed that the sender and person ordering the gin were different.

Purchased a small gin selection bag as a birthday present for my brother. Simple, straightforward ordering process. Great selection of miniature gins to choose from. I selected 4 which had a special relevance to him. He was delighted with the gift.

Alastair came and did Gin tasting for us for my 40th birthday, we wanted it to be a relaxed affair and a few guests didn't like gin so he catered for them as well. He even made mocktails for the children. It was truly wonderful and everyone from age 6 to 76 enjoyed it. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending The Gin Box or using them again myself.

Brilliant service. Thanks to Bob for a real personal touch

Excellent, great website, fast delivery

A fantastic selection of gin, with good descriptions of where they're from, and what they're made from, all at a really good price with quick delivery

Excellent present, came beautifully presented, would definitely recommend

This company was easy to buy from although there was a small problem over what was in stock at the time of ordering. This could be explained by being so close to Christmas, but it did reduce the options available. The particular one I wanted to order was not available. On the plus The Gin Box did know where I live and understood this was different from the destination of the parcel. Four other websites did not recognise New Zealand as a country and had difficulty with the postcode. However the delivery was not as promised, the goods arriving after Christmas rather than before. Paying the extra it is expected the delivery will be on the promised day. Otherwise package arrived safely and service was fair.

Excellent service, great selection of top quality Gin, love the way you can create your own hamper to suit the preferences of the lucky individual receiving the hamper, gives it that lovely personal touch

Website does not show you what's amiss, just sits there and nothing happens. Got an email from Bob , explained the problems three weeks ago, no reply . Tried to help. Not impressed. KMcC

Not actually opened the gifts as they are Christmas presents, but the packages turned up really well packaged and secure. Also after I had mistakenly done 2 orders rather than one for 2 items the same company rang me to confirm if I actually wanted 2 seperate orders or could they be packaged as one and they would refund one lot of postage and packaging. Brilliant customer service. I will definitely order from here again.
