The Herbalist and Junipers comprises of a ground floor restaurant and bar which has been beautifully and extensively fitted out, having a design inspiration from botanical pioneers Nicholas Culpeper & Sir Joseph Banks, which includes stunning hand painted ceiling light panels.

The current design is considered to allow it to cater for pretty much any cuisine style, without the need for further expense.

Since opening in 2018, after its extensive refurbishment and fit out, the business has built up an excellent reputation as one of the leading venues in the town, whether that be for its cocktails and other drinks, or its fine food. There is also a pizza oven, preparation and cook area, which includes a takeaway service point directly to the pavement outside.

The restaurant area is generally laid out for 100 covers, including a side snug or private dining area. The bar area, with its long bar servery, can seat up to 30.

The open stage fronted kitchen is at the heart of the restaurant, proudly displaying chefs at work.

At lower ground floor level can be found Junipers, which has the benefit of its own independent access to the High Street if or when needed.

Junipers has operated as a late night venue, with DJ music and comedy nights being prominent.

This space could be repurposed for another use, subject to any planning consent being required, should an owner wish to do so.

The whole property extends to a little under 7,500 sq ft (a little over 690 sq m), the ground floor accounting for just under 3,800 sq ft of that.
