It’s Friday… and that can only mean one thing - that Friday feeling at Howies.

Start your evening with one of our seasonal cocktails, perfectly paired with our new menu:

Worker Bee: Pickering’s Gin, fresh lemon juice, honey & ginger syrup - bright, zesty, and just the right amount of buzz. 🐝

Dreamy Piña Colada (non‑alcoholic): Crossip Blazing Pineapple, pineapple juice & coconut cream - tropical, silky, and just as indulgent.

Whether you’re kicking off the weekend or settling in for a cosy night out, we’ve got the perfect drink to start your evening.

Which one will you be choosing?

This week, the team brushed up on their knowledge of both Scottish gin and whisky.

First, we visited the amazing Edinburgh Gin Distillery, where Phil, one of their ambassadors, led us on a tour of the distillery and gave us further insight into the fascinating world of gin-making - from their carefully selected botanicals to the beautifully crafted gins they create.

We highly recommend a tour of this amazing distillery, right in the heart of Edinburgh’s city centre and just a short walk from our restaurants!

We also enjoyed an in-house whisky tasting session with our very own whisky expert, Karen.

Now the team can’t wait to share their new knowledge with you the next time you visit us.
