Discover the true spirit of London at The Ginstitute. One of the country's smallest museums offers a glimpse into the origins and history of gin, from its beginnings as a medicine through the Golden Era of gin cocktails to gin's place in the modern world. Proceed to the still room where you can taste and smell various herbs and spices before devising your own recipe for a blend of gin you'll get to take home in a full-size bottle. The place also organizes themed evenings. Arrange your visit to The Ginstitute and discover more family-friendly attractions in London using our London online travel planner.

    We went for a drink on a Sunday - literally the rudest staff I have ever encountered. Clearly too busy and stressed but no need to be so consistently rude to 3 of us on various occasions. Forgot one.....  more

    Exceeded all expectations. Our guide Joe was very knowledgeable and helped us through the process of creating a bespoke gin. Best experience yet of gin making, thoroughly recommend.
