Folly Good

The city feels an unlikely spot for new restaurant Folly Bar so I was intrigued to see how trendy secret garden inspired Folly would go down amongst the city slickers. Perhaps not too surprisingly it was swarming with suits on business lunches, trying to impress clients with this 'novelty' new spot. The food was pretty average and the service was slow  - but busy wasn't the word so we'll cut our jovial Brazilian bowler hat wearing waiter some slack. What i did like is the Folly Bar decor- so i thought i'd share some pics.. if the mad hatter set up camp in Bank this would be his tea party. Vintage plates hanging from the walls, trees growing in the bathroom, food stacks served on bread boards, Orla Kiely-esque upholstered oversize chairs, wire framed garden furniture, lavender tea pots and enough flowers to fill Chelsea Flower show... pretty folly good.
