"I had only been to Indigo Yard once before for a quick drink, but I was excited to go out for a work night on Friday. The atmosphere at Indigo Yard is cool, with a spacious open layout featuring brick walls and an industrial chic look. There is a mezzanine area with tables for dining, as well as a back room for diners. When I arrived, I met my coworkers at a table near the entrance for a drink before some of us sat down for dinner. We were lucky to visit on a night when an Edinburgh Gin representative was handing out free samples of their gins, which are a personal favorite of mine. The gin selection includes raspberry, elderflower, and a new spiced orange variety. After enjoying a drink, seven of us sat down for a meal in the back room and found the menu to be quite appealing. They offer a great deal of 2 courses for £10 all week, with a variety of options to choose from. We all went for the deal and I started with a chicken caesar salad followed by salmon teriyaki over rice (although the menu said noodles). The food was tasty and the portion sizes were reasonable. After our meal, we went back to the bar for more drinks and enjoyed live music from a band playing popular songs. The atmosphere was enjoyable and I had a great night overall. However, I was disappointed by the high prices of the drinks. A double gin and tonic cost me £8.80, and all cocktails were priced at or above £8. Even a spirit and mixer was around £5. While I will definitely return to Indigo Yard, I will need to save up before my next visit due to the expensive drinks."
