Ginny’s is an independent cocktail bar located in the heart of Maldon.

They regularly work with local businesses for monthly pop up dining events.
What makes Ginny’s so special?
Ginny’s is a family run bar with a real emphasis on sustainability and creativity. We are a small but tight knit team and we all put a lot of thought in to our menu, décor, service and events. Another special thing about Ginny’s is our alcohol-free cocktails. We don’t have a mocktail list, as we believe every drink should be amazing regardless of whether it has alcohol content. That’s why we stock Lyres Non Alcoholic spirit alternatives. This means we can re-create almost all of our cocktails as alcohol free options which has been extremely popular.
One of the things that feels special to us is our partnerships with other local businesses. Our house vodka, vanilla vodka and gin is all made within ten miles of Ginny’s by the amazing Essex Spirits Co, and we’re also super proud to offer wines from New Hall Wines less than three miles away from us. Our back bar features a wonderful range of locally produced craft gin too. We’re really looking forward to championing our local partnerships more in the future and hope to build on these partnerships and do more as we grow!
